Bible Answers to Lies About Sex (2)



1. SEX IS NO BIG DEAL-Wrong! Sex is a huge deal. It ties two people together forever (Genesis 2:24), even if they never speak to each other again.

 2. YOU CAN BE A TECHNICAL VIRGIN-In God's eyes, staying a virgin means more than just not having sex(Matthews 5:27-28). It means keeping your mind, body and spirit sexually pure. 


3. SEX EQUALS LOVE-It’s true, at least for many that sex equals an emotional tie of some sort-one that might seem like love. But here’s the news flash: many treat sex as more of physical thing than an emotional one. Sex is meant to be the ultimate expression of the ultimate commitment—marriage. Love comes first, marriage second, sex third. 

4. HAVING SEX IS JUST LIKE ANY OTHER SIN-God definitely forgives sexual sin the same way he forgives all sin. But the reason the Bible pays close attention to sexual sin is that sex affects people like no other sin does (1 Corinthians 6:18-20). Most sins involve mainly your actions, but premarital sex involves your heart, mind and body as well. That kind of internal damage is very hard to get beyond.

 5. EVERYBODY IS DOING IT-So not true. In every school, every town, every state there are plenty of cool, happy people who have chosen to follow God's plan and save sex for marriage.

6. Its OK to marry the same sex.
But from the beginning of the creation, God 'made them male and female.' 'For this reason a man shall leave his father and mother and be joined to his wife, and the two shall become one flesh'; so then they are no longer two, but one flesh. Mark 10:6-8 (NKJV) 

7. A man can marry as many wives as possible as long as He can take care of them.

Neither shall he multiply wives for himself, lest his heart turn away; nor shall he greatly multiply silver and gold for himself. Deuteronomy 17:17 (NKJV)

8. Sexual urge is natural so it is impossible to abstain.
For this is the will of God, your sanctification: that you should abstain from sexual immorality; that each of you should know how to possess his own vessel in sanctification and honor, not in passion of lust, like the Gentiles who do not know God; 1 Thessalonians 4:3-5 (NKJV)

but if they cannot exercise self-control, let them marry. For it is better to marry than to burn with passion. 1 Corinthians 7:9 (NKJV)
