Question

Five biblical teaching on sexuality

Answer 1

• Christianity teaches us about responsible sexual behaviour. Being responsible means that one is exercising self— control or self-discipline in matters of sexual behaviour. Self-discipline is necessary when we have a relationship with the opposite sex (Read, 1 Cor.7: 9 1 Peter 5:8). It is called responsible sexual behaviour, which is obedience to God’s commands.
• Christians promote healthy social relationship between boys and girls, men and women, and husbands and wives.
• Responsible sex is between male and female. Sexual intercourse is allowed only between married couples (1 Cor.7: 3— 5). Married couples are obliged to be sexually faithful to one another (Heb.13: 4) adultery is condemned (exodus 25:14).
• Relationship between a husband / wife should be one of respect faithfulness, love, care, mercy, submission, tolerance, and forgiveness.
