Sex:WhatAboutIt.com

When I got home that night as my wife served dinner, I held her hand and said, I’ve got something to tell you. She sat down and ate quietly. Again I observed the hurt in her eyes. Suddenly I didn’t know how to open my mouth. But I had to let her know what I was thinking. I want a divorce. I raised the topic calmly. She didn’t seem to be annoyed by my words, instead she asked me softly, why?

You don’t have to take my advice, do as you see fit, but at least consider the message and apply what you feel applies to you. I want you to be happy and to grow old without too many regrets. There is a reason for Christian values espousing sex within the bounds of marriage. You may not see it as a sin when you engage in premarital sex, but perhaps I have put a different spin on this concept in a way that you can accept without the sting of sin.

Some people abuse sex, and they do things their creator never intended for them to do. They play with it as if it’s a cheap toy, showing little or no respect for its powers or valuing the boundaries that God has placed on its use. Sometimes a spouse smudges the lines that keep sex within the bounds of their commitment to each other. They do not respect the blessing that sex should be in their relationship and so they look outside the marriage for satisfaction.

Let me tell you what I know about fidelity in a relationship and then you decide what is best for you and your relationships.

In the times we live now, sex is considered part of the dating process. Yet, in times past, people tried to reserve sex for marriage. For whatever reason today, some people still believe that sex should be saved until consummated under the marriage covenant.
