"So God created... male and female... God blessed them and said to them, 'Be fruitful.'" - Genesis 1:27-28
God invented sex. He designed the hormones that trigger your desires. He designed every nerve ending that magnifies pleasure. Sex isn't wrong. Sex is good, a gift from a God who loves you. Physical hunger can be easily satisfied by eating some food. However, the sex drive isn't like hunger, and intercourse isn't a ham sandwich. Sex isn't just physical-it's spiritual too. Is all sex considered a sin? Why should you wait? Can you do everything but? What's so bad about it if you love the person & have protection? Does the Bible say anything to teens about sex?
"'This is now bone of my bones, and flesh of my flesh;'...For this reason a man will leave his father & mother and be united to his wife, and they will become one flesh." - Genesis 2:23-24
God's design for sex is very specific; one man with one woman within the legal bonds of marriage. How special do you want sex to be with the person you marry? How much do you want to be "one" with him or her-instead of five or eighteen or thirty-three? It's easy to say, "I love you." But only "I do" says you're really one, for always.
