Marriage is a sexual relationship
Yes, the
"Jews were the 'chosen' people." But it is not correct to state that
"when God sent His son Jesus, Jews did not accept him" because as we
see in the Gospels and the Book of Acts, tens of thousands of Jews
became Christian Jews.
M> Within 60 years of the time of the Book of Acts, there were many
churches/fellowships/assemblies where there were no Christian Jews,
and the instructions in 1 Cor 8:4-13; 10:23-33 and Romans 14 were no
longer issues being dealt with in those fellowships, except for the
issue of "sexual immorality." In Mat 5 and 19 and Mark 10 we see Jesus
bring into the New Testament the definitions of "sexual immorality"
without changing or abridging them. NonJews/Gentiles/Nations were not
instructed to enforce the punishments Jesus ordained in the Sinai Law
for the sexually immoral, although they were still practiced by the
Jews, believing and unbelieving, when Christ was in His body on earth
(John 8). They were instructed to "abstain . . . from sexual
immorality." So the definitions of sex sin, sexual immorality, were
brought into the New Testament unchanged and unabridged, including the
definitions of incest, homosexuality, bestiality, adultery,
promiscuity and sex without marriage . The "punishments" or
"discipline" among Christians for those doing or snared in sex sin
today are given in 1 Cor 5, 2 Thes 3:6-14; Gala 6:1; 2 Tim 2:24-26;
Mat 18:15-18; Rom 16:17,18.
T> I can never love God if He think that I am inferior to somebody
else(Jews in this case). Remember the parable about those who were
invited to the wedding never turned up and the host called people from
every street corner. Also the parable of the care-takers of the
wine-yard not accepting the Son when he came....
When Jesus came He changed everything.
M> We all are just super animals apart from God and His grace and
mercy in Jesus Christ. In Isaiah He tells us that the "good deeds" we
do on our own are as "filthy leprous wrags", totally unacceptable to
God and unable to improve our standing in the sight of God. He makes
it clear we are all sinners, those who fail to be holy as He is holy,
by Jesus Christ, who rebel and disobey God, who fail to obey God's
instructions. We are all inferior to God and His Son Jesus, by and in
Whom He is revealed. Partiality, bigotry, prejudice and bias are all
declared to be sin, contrary to God (James 2; 1 Tim 5:20,21; Acts 10
and 11). Partiality, bigotry, prejudice and bias are all contrary to
the God who is revealed as Jesus is the God Who is eternal Life,
liberating Truth, enlightening Light, the Way to Live and to Heaven,
and compassionate, kind and unselfish Love.
T> He presented us with a more
loving, forgiving God. Not the God you see in the old Testament.
M> They are one and the same God, who reveals Himself as Father,
Consuming Fire (Deut 4:24;9:3; Heb 12:28,29), Savior Son and
indwelling Holy Spirit.
T> The way you have sex is not the most important thing.
M> Yes, but it is a very important thing.
***Prov 5:18 May your [genital] fountain be blessed,
and rejoice in the wife of your youth.
19 A loving doe, a graceful deer—
her breasts should satisfy you always,
you should ever be intoxicated with her lovemaking.
20 Why, my son, be intoxicated with another man's wife?
Why embrace the bosom of a wayward woman?
***Ecclesiastes 9:9 Enjoy life with the wife you love all the days of
your fleeting life, which has been given to you under the sun, all
your fleeting days. For that is your portion in life and in your
struggle under the sun.
Love thy neighbor as Yourself.
***1 Cor 7: 2 But because of sexual immorality, each man should be
having his own wife, and each woman should be having her own husband.
3 A husband should be fulfilling his marital duty to his wife, and
likewise a wife to her husband. 4 A wife does not have [sexual]
authority over her own body, but her husband does. Equally, a husband
does not have [sexual]authority over his own body, but his wife does.
5 Do not [sexually] deprive one another—except when you agree, for a
time, to devote yourselves to prayer. Then come together again
[sexually]; otherwise, Satan may tempt you because of your lack of
self-control. . . . 8 I say to the unmarried and to widows: It is
good for them if they remain as I am. 9 But if they do not have
self-control [to consistently continue to abstain from sex sin], they
should marry, for it is better to marry than to burn with desire.
James 4:17 Therefore, to him who knows to do good [marry] and does
not do it, to him it is sin.
M> Many Christian wives find their relationship with Jesus to be cold,
distant and impersonal. They wonder why their prayers go unanswered
and apparently unheard (Psalm 66:18; Isa 59:1-5; 1 John 3:22;
5:14,15). They fail to obey God by not willingly making their
breasts{a} available to their husbands for their frequent delight, by
not willingly encouraging their husbands to be intoxicated with their
love making, by not willing to do their best to make their married
life enjoyable, by not helping their husbands abstain from sexual
immorality by encouraging and allowing their husbands to be sexually
and intimately having/experiencing them, by not continuing to be
fulfilling her marital duty to her husband, by not recognizing that
not her, but her husband has the sexual authority over her body, and
by not depriving her husband of marital sex and intimacy only for
agreed upon and temporary prayer and fasting.
{a} fragrant and perfumed breasts, with flavoring oils used for cooking,
Song 4:5 Your breasts are like two fawns,
twins of a gazelle, that feed among the lilies.
6 Before the day breaks
and the shadows flee,
I will make my way to the [breast that is a] mountain of myrrh
and the [other breast that is a] hill of frankincense. . . .
12 My sister, my bride, [you are] a locked garden—
a locked garden and a sealed spring.
13 Your branches [arms and legs] are a paradise of pomegranates
with choicest fruits, henna with nard—
14 nard and saffron, calamus and cinnamon,
with all the trees of frankincense,
myrrh and aloes, with all the best spices.
***Esther 2:12 During the year before each young woman's turn to go to
King Ahasuerus, the harem regulation required her to receive beauty
treatments with oil of myrrh for six months and then with perfumes and
cosmetics for [another] six months. [Queen Esther's preparation for
her King]
M> It never ceases to amaze me that so many women fail to realize that
they need to wash regularly and well with soap ALL of their hairy parts,
especially below the waist, front and back, especially in the valley
of the shadow. I know of too many marriages that had severe problems
over offensive body odors, and I know females have more of a problem
with this than men because of their female functions. The husbands should
do what they can to smell good as well, if possible - - -
***Song 3:6 What is this coming up from the wilderness
like columns of smoke,
scented with myrrh and frankincense
from every fragrant powder of the merchant?
7 It is Solomon's royal litter
surrounded by 60 warriors from the mighty of Israel.]
T> God hate sin... but He loves the sinner.
M> Amen and Hallelujah!
