Does God encourage sexual intercourse purely for
physical enjoyment? Absolutely! God intended for a husband and wife
to enjoy sexual pleasure without shame and reservation. When a man
and woman marry, there is a lot of passionate lovemaking that takes
place at the beginning of their new life together. Now, if their
relationship is based upon compassion, this means they are
emotionally ready to give and receive love when they engage in
sexual intercourse. This union between a man and woman is a beautiful
thing in God's eyes but few couples enter marriage with the mindset
of unconditionally loving and pleasing each other. The husband is
looking for ways in which the wife can make him happy and he is not
necessarily thinking about her needs. The wife's mindset is about
the same and there is only going to be strife and misery when two
selfish people get married and try to revolve a relationship around
a physical act. This is why so many marriages fail today. When a man loves his wife like Christ loves the
church and the wife reveres and respects her husband, their sex life
will be very satisfying because it stems from the compassion they
have for each other. |
