The Bible says in Genesis 1:27, "So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them." So there we have it, God created male and female and of course by reason of that the sexual union, the ideal being the "one flesh union".
Now many Christians feel uncomfortable in talking about sexual matters, maybe due to conditioning or upbringing ? It should be self evident however that sex being a God made pleasure, it is not wrong to talk about sexuality. Equally it is not wrong for Christian couples to confess to each other if it is an area where things are less than satisfactory.
Of course it goes without saying here that the sexual union for a Christian couple is in the context of marriage and not any other form of relationship !
So if we accept that God created sex then it is only right to believe that God would want the sexual experience in marriage to be a fulfilling and unifying one.
However it is apparent that many Christian couples have less than satisfactory sex lives and this could be a potential source of a relationship coming under pressure, breaking down and even leading to divorce. It is a sobering fact that the divorce rates for Christians are little better than non Christians. It is therefore important for Christian husbands and wives to address this matter sensitively and to look for help if the marriage is having problems in the sexual area.
According to Scripture, the primary purpose of marriage is not to have children...the primary purpose of marriage is to provide a "God blessed" environment in which a man and a woman can express their God-given sexuality. There is a comfort that only comes from knowing that God intended sex for pleasure, enjoyment and fun...not just to "multiply."
Once again I want to say that it is not offensive to God to talk about this subject. People think Christians are sexually naïve, it's just that sex for a Christian should be a Godly experience with him at the centre rather than an exercise in carnality. But Christians cannot afford to let embarrassment, naivety or ignorance affect their knowledge of their sexuality. After all God desires Christian couples to have greater "intimacy" in their marriage and this can be achieved by improving their sexual lives.
It is with the above in mind that I would like to recommend two products : "Sexual Skills for the Christian husband which gives husbands advice that is scripturally sound and technically correct and "Sexual Satisfaction for the Christian wife" which will enable her to experience sex as the exciting, fulfilling and marriage-building experience that God intended it to be. I do hope these guides are helpful. NB Both ebooks can be accessed from the same page.Click here
