Moonlight7 View Profile History	Romantic Love is very important in a Marriage Relationship or Boyfriend exclusive Relationship Posted : 27 Oct, 2024 12:46 PM Why is there an entire book of the Bible dedicated to romantic love? translate book Bible romantic love Some people believe that the subject matter of the Song of Solomon—romantic love—is not a very noble theme. Some try to allegorize the book in order to provide it with a “higher” or more “spiritual” purpose. But what is “low” or “unspiritual” about the love between a husband and wife? The Song of Solomon is dedicated to the theme of romantic love. The Lord knows we need to see how love should look between a husband and wife. Of course, Solomon had more than one wife. In fact, “he had seven hundred wives of royal birth and three hundred concubines” (1 Kings 11:3). While it is uncertain how old Solomon was when he composed his Song of Songs, his emphasis on one true love leads many scholars to suspect that Solomon was writing of his relationship with his first wife, before the sinful multiplication of wives occurred. An overview of the contents of the Song of Solomon reveals many important aspects of romantic love. For example, there is a proper time and place for romantic love to begin to grow (Song 2:7). Romantic love involves a longing between a man and woman (1:2–4), mutual admiration (1:12—2:7), and a desire to be together (3:1–5). Also, romantic love includes sexual expression, and the appropriate context for sexual intimacy is within marriage (3:6—5:1). After the wedding, couples face many different situations, and it is important for them to keep the romantic love alive. Couples will face occasional indifference to each other or time apart from each other (5:2–8), followed by renewed displays of love—a rekindling of the romance (5:9–16). Also important is communication within marriage. Chapter 7 focuses on improvement in this area, followed by an increase in intimacy (chapter 8). Romantic love and intimacy in a God-honoring marriage is an important goal for all couples. God presents love as something to be desired: “Many waters cannot quench love; / rivers cannot sweep it away. / If one were to give all the wealth of one’s house for love, / it would be utterly scorned” (Song of Solomon 8:7). True love endures. It overcomes adversity. Nothing is worth giving up on godly love. Love is priceless. In today’s society marriage is often ridiculed or broken or redefined, but the principles found in the Song of Solomon offer a godly perspective on the importance of marriage, romantic love, communication between husband and wife, and the value of a marriage that endures. © Copyright 2002-2024 Got Questions Ministries.

Milkybar^ View Profile History	Romantic Love is very important in a Marriage Relationship or Boyfriend exclusive Relationship Posted : 20 Mar, 2025 10:31 PM Is romantic gestres essential for maintaining a good marriage? Yes and no. It depends on what you define as romantic. Yes a number of women in particular like getting flowers etc coz it makes them feel seen, thought about, appreciated, loved etc but i would suggest that is coz those things line up with their particular love language. Others may appreciate getting flowers etc but not affect them as much coz its not their love language. The key is finding out what makes your partner feel loved the most and show them love in that way the most. As far as men are concerned, most won't care too much if their wife brings them flowers etc and the most women know that so she seeks to show love in difrerent ways. Still could be deemed romantic coz they are seeking to show they care but doing it in a different way than a guy might for a woman. For example if my wife were to hold my hand or cook my favorite meal i would see that as more romantic than flowers, but my wife might feel the same way i feel, when i give her flowers or spend some quality time with her. Different for each person but both romantic because the other is feeling loved by those actions. All can be deemed a romantic gestre depending on each individuals love language. So long story short..yes romance should continually be a part of any marriage if that means doing things to keep your partner feeling loved and appreciated. That will vary from person to person.

We are all different and will want/consider different things romantic. There is a book out called Love Languages....It's too bad we "need" to read books these days to figure things out. Asking them would go a long way! I think knowing your partner and doing nice things for them is the same thing. Post Reply

rbj66 View Profile History	Romantic Love is very important in a Marriage Relationship or Boyfriend exclusive Relationship Posted : 20 May, 2025 06:22 AM I aim to never let romance die. Maybe as one post said most women aren't romantic is because men are the same way. Maybe the women are supposed to be romanced and not the men. If GOD created woman for man, then man has a Godly responsibility to her. He said it is (mostly) good 😁. As for Solomon, i think he summed up the concubines when he said "all is vanity" and struggled with true love. One man, one woman... Post Reply
LittleDavid View Profile History	Romantic Love is very important in a Marriage Relationship or Boyfriend exclusive Relationship Posted : 20 May, 2025 07:29 AM It’s a serious matter of concern when Christians turn to the human tradition of psychology for theological answers instead of seeking first the principles of theology to understand the concept of love. Such is the case of the “Five Love Languages” by Gary Chapman. Anyone who is familiar with criminology has seen many examples of the failures within the “5 love languages” working out in what first appears to be “loving” relationships between couples. In fact, the FBI Files, the Forensic Files and other records of pre-criminal relationship activity reveal how “love” and “sacrifice” often characterize future relationships before they turn deadly‼️ It’s always the same in such cases. Somehow one of these “loving” persons ends up killing the other ”loving” person. Why do we sinners always seek out complex psychological formulas, that are here today and gone tomorrow, in deference to the simple 👉never changing👈 basis of true love that begins with: “do to others as you would have them do to you”⁉️ Post Reply
LittleDavid View Profile History	Romantic Love is very important in a Marriage Relationship or Boyfriend exclusive Relationship Posted : 20 May, 2025 07:49 AM The bottom line is this: Just as it is possible to discern false theology from true theology, is possible to discern false love from true love. False love, just like false theology, often look alike until careful investigation reveals otherwise Post Reply

In modern relationships which partner sacrifices the most? Ignorant people will say the women do. But do they? There really is no comparison. Men hands down give the most in the relationship. I'm not going to list where and how we do because in other post I've already done that. Those who don't see that, do so because what men give & how we sacrifice has been so down graded by society that it isn't valued anymore despite that it's expected of men and if we don't perform them then were not considered men. I've asked the question "what do you bring to the relationship table" and of the several women on here I asked, not one gave an answer. Now why wouldn't any of them muster an answer? I believe it's because they couldn't answer without giving away they really didn't bring much of value to a relationship. Is a woman manipulating a man behind the scenes to get her way of any real value to a him? Post Reply
