As accordance with scriptures pertaining to marital relationships and especially in Ephesians 5, the man is the head of the household, ordained and appointed by God. Thus, it is the man's responsibility and duty to set the tone and path to make sure HE satisfies the needs of his wife... and the wife is to respond in kind toward him, and they both are then sbumitted one to another and sexually satisified. Therefore, why is it that MOST ALL men think and feel that it the WOMAN'S duty and responsibility to satisfy him sexually, and that sex is ONLY for the satifying of the man without concerns of the woman..., and that he ALONE is to be satistifed... when God has created this beautful romantic intimate connection for the pleasure of BOTH the man and the woman to enjoy and please each other?
I Corinthians 7:1 Now for the matters you wrote about: �It is good for a man not to have sexual relations with a woman.�
2 But since sexual immorality is occurring, each man should have sexual relations with his own wife, and each woman with her own husband.
3 The husband should fulfill his marital duty to his wife, and likewise the wife to her husband.The wife does not have authority over her own body but yields it to her husband. In the same way, the husband does not have authority over his own body but yields it to his wife.
5 Do not deprive each other except perhaps by mutual consent and for a time, so that you may devote yourselves to prayer. Then come together again so that Satan will not tempt you because of your lack of self-control.
Proverbs 5:15 Drink water from your own cistern, running water from your own well. Should your springs overflow in the streets, your streams of water in the public squares? Let them be yours alone, never to be shared with strangers.May your fountain be blessed, and may you rejoice in the wife of your youth.
19. A loving doe, a graceful deer� may herbreasts satisfy you always, may you ever be intoxicated with her love. Why, my son, be intoxicated with another man�s wife? Why embrace the bosom of a wayward woman?
21 For your ways are in full view of the LORD, and he examines all your paths. The evil deeds of the wicked ensnare them; the cords of their sins hold them fast. For lack of discipline they will die, led astray by their own great folly.
Donna, maybe you can splain this that Solomon is speaking about...
Proverbs 5:1 My son, pay attention to my wisdom, turn your ear to my words of insight, that you may maintain discretion and your lips may preserve knowledge.
3 For the lips of the adulterous woman drip honey, and her speech is smoother than oil; but in the end she is bitter as gall, sharp as a double-edged sword.
5 Her feet go down to death; her steps lead straight to the grave. She gives no thought to the way of life; her paths wander aimlessly, but she does not know it.
7 Now then, my sons, listen to me; do not turn aside from what I say. Keep to a path far from her, do not go near the door of her house, lest you lose your honor to others and your dignity to one who is cruel, lest strangers feast on your wealth and your toil enrich the house of another.
11 At the end of your life you will groan, when your flesh and body are spent. You will say, �How I hated discipline!How my heart spurned correction! I would not obey my teachers or turn my ear to my instructors. And I was soon in serious trouble in the assembly of God�s people.�
15 Drink water from your own cistern, running water from your own well.
16 Should your springs overflow in the streets, your streams of water in the public squares? Let them be yours alone, never to be shared with strangers.
18 May your fountain be blessed, and may you rejoice in the wife of your youth. 19 A loving doe, a graceful deer� may herbreasts satisfy you always, may you ever be intoxicated with her love. Why, my son, be intoxicated with another man�s wife? Why embrace the bosom of a wayward woman?
21 For your ways are in full view of the LORD, and he examines all your paths.
22 The evil deeds of the wicked ensnare them; the cords of their sins hold them fast. 23 For lack of discipline they will die, led astray by their own great folly.
i can not believe you are that fickle not to understand the simpleness of what i have said.
You are a acclaimed women of God. You are not to put a stumbling block in front of another.
What is so hard about that Ella.
If a person has a question about such a subject, then let him or her find help from their Pastor.
No where in the bible does God preach in his ministry on earth, and if you had any morals what so ever it would be talked about in private not on a web site of professing christians
It is the resposibilities of the Church to teach Marriage classes and offer pre marriage counselling before marriage, any relationship that is not built on God values can never operate within the ordinance of God, and are operating in confusion an will always end in failure.
The husband must know his responsibility and so is the wife. People with wisdom don't stand in the way of the word of God, they will be removed.
That is what is wrong with the Church of today, they conform to the world, instead of the world conforming to the Church. People like to hear Churches that preach convenience instead of the truth. Only the truth will set us free.
It would be Great if all the people on Christian sites would quit with the Premarital Sex. God is not in that and if you Study the Bible, they would know that. Yep, it should be preached in the Church, and on the Forums and anywhere else where
people can hear or Read.
I have had two ministers approach me for Sex. So, would you say that is a True follower of Jesus. NOT...
When the Pharasees asked Jesus bout putting a wife away for Any reason and also asked Why did Moses say to give a written Divorce...Jesus ALWAYS took them right back to the beginning of GOD's Word...to Genesis...In the beginning it was not so...God created man and women to become one flesh...it was because of the "hardness" of your "hearts" that Moses said that...and thats Why there is SO much divorce in todays times...people all running on impure hearts...not focused on the LORD Jesus and His ways and Commands for the man and women in Relationship not only to them selves and each other but more importantly the dirrect relationship with GOD~Jesus~HolySpirit...without GOD being 1st...well...its all jus a Intanglement of no value to GOD or ones self for that matter...xo

Donna,the liberals have spoken and have shown that they will not listen to a conservative woman as yourself.
Yet they will endorse a woman which claims to be a pastor yet shows herslef in rebellion against the word,by wanting to takes the mans position of posting things addressed to mne.
This should be discussed amongst men.
And womans things should be discussed amongst the woman.

There are lot of scripture's in the bible, so what is that supposed to be, the issue is to be born again and then receive the Holy Spirit and to depart the carnal ways of the lost and start believing the word of God. The Holy spirit is not leading any man or women ibo their own opinion's.
Sorry, George, you can't try to use what Paul has written as as a means to not discussing this topic... it ain't happening, becasue number one, you have no clue as to what Paul is speaking about hear in this passage, and what you have posted ain't about me!
And Donna, are you saying that I am immoral because of this topic I have posted? I think you may wanna check yourself and see what it is about this topic of sex that is really causing you problems, becasue I can't find anywhere in the Bible wherein talking about sex and God's views on the subject is not to be discussed... nor where in the scriptures it saying discussing this topic is immoral in fact, the truth about what God say about sex, pervents immorality, when men and women know the truth of the matter.
Also, if you saw the subject of the topic, why would you go ahead and open the thread and read,a dn continue to post on this thread knowing that it is about a topic YOU THINK, look at this, ITS ABOUT WHAT YOU THINK, that should not be discussed! Wonder why YOU THINK it shouldn't be discussed, only because its about SEX??? this would be your issues and problems and not the subject fo this topic...
You can't make your own rule about what is in God's word and you call what is a sin, and what YOU THINK is a disgrace for men or woment o discuss.
You can't make your own rules and say that what is written in the Bible should not be discussed among whomever would like to discuss it. Where do you get off at doing such?
Everything in the BIble is open for discussion by anyone at anytime... and you, George and no one else can place thier OWN limitations on what God has written and can be or cannot be discussed at anytime. That's including from sex, to money, to pregnancy, to war, to what God has to say about harlots, and anything else that needs to be brought to the open and discussed.
It is the responsibility of those who are called into ministry to teach and preach God's word to all who will hear, and not half His word.
Yes, its a time for all things, and this is the time chosen for this discussion... who chooses the time? YOU??? Is it the time when YOu decide it should be? Where can you find these things in scriptures that says in secret its time to discusss certain issues?
Let's see here, the word SEX seems to be a problem for you, maybe you should check and balance as to why this would be. And also, why you are unable to explain what Paul speaks about in these passages... are you saying these scripture passages are not to be discussed openingly and should only be discussed with a pastor? UNBELIEVEABLE!
Whom the Father sets free they are free indeed, that is if you are indeed set free from all things, and that include being free to knwo God's word and discuss it... truth hurts, but this is the onyl way to be set free when the pain of His word cleanses us from deep within from all unrighteousness.
Where in scripture does it say only certain scripture passages can be discussed openingly and other passages cannot?...
