1 | When does caressing go too far ? | 2 Corinthians | Levite | 52865 | ||
I am a virtuous holy woman of God who was once engaged in perverted things of the world. This book shows the pure love of God between two that God put together. Knowing how the enemy wants to pervert the things of God, when is it crossing the line in the marriage bed? I believe that a husband and wife's body belongs to eachother, but when does the caressing go too far?? |

"So from now on we regard no one from a worldly point of view. Though we once regarded Christ in this way, we do so no longer. Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; the old has gone, the new has come." 2Corinthians 5:16-17 (NIV). "Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her to make her holy, cleansing her by the washing with water through the word, and to present her to himself as a radiant church, without stain or wrinkle or any other blemish, but holy and blameless. In this same way, husbands ought to love their wives as their own bodies." Ephesians 5:25-28 (NIV). Knowing how the enemy wants to pervert the things of God? Is when you begin to question where that fine line is! Loving and lusting are two worlds apart, I hear what you are saying. I was caught up in all of what you are saying. I even justified my actions by reading Song of Songs :) but come on now, I was looking for my fix, I wanted that old nature, just one more time :) Praise God, that old devil is a liar! I have LEARNED that I can do ALL things through Christ :) His good will. In closing, the husband and wife's body belongs to the Lord! "Therefore, I urge you, brothers, in view of God's mercy, to offer your bodies as living sacrifices, holy and pleasing to God - this is your spiritual act of worship. Do not conform any longer to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God's will is - his good, pleasing and perfect will." Romans 12:1-2 (NIV). I know you know what I'm saying, amen? Just let go and let God! :) God's Grace and Mercy, He loves you! |

It goes too far when either of you, either the husband or the wife, finds the act uncomfortable or wrong. One partner should not make the other do something they don't want to do. Otherwise anything goes in marriage. Between only the two of you of course, we can't invite anybody else into our marriage. This includes pornography, this is a form of adultry of the heart. ****** Hebrews 13:4Marriage should be honored by all, and the marriage bed kept pure, for God will judge the adulterer and all the sexually immoral. |

2. (4) Honor marital love a. The Bible strictly condemns sex outside of the marriage commitment, but celebrates sexuality within the commitment of marriage (see The Song of Solomon) i. "Fornication and adultery are not synonymous in the New Testament: adultery implies unfaithfulness by either party to the marriage vow, while the word translated "fornication" covers a wide range of sexual irregularities" (Bruce) b. Many, through a past of sexual sin, have a difficult time really believing that the marriage bed is undefiled; guilt and sexual hang-ups are appropriate to extra-marital sex, but not in marital sex (where they most frequently cause trouble) i. Understand that a Biblical concept of sexuality is under attack from the world, the flesh and the Devil c. Though God allows real freedom in the variety of sexual expression in marriage, all must be done with a concern for the other's needs and in love (1 Corinthians 7:2-5; Ephesians 5:21-33) The above is a cut from a commentary. I hear you also, however the "anything goes" concept is also a fine line. Lets say if a person was bound by sexual perversion or lust, do you tell them anything goes? Just like a person who was bound by alcohol, do you tell them that "a little wine is good for the stomach? Or Jesus turned the water into wine! All I'm saying "don't be a stumbling block to a brother of sister! Thank you for your response Jeshuafreak. That's a cool name :) |
