Bible Question: why shouldn't sex be casual and just for fun? |
Bible Answer: Greetings, When you study the biblical definition of sex, you find one term that follows it: knowledge. Sex is defined, biblically, as "knowing" each other. Also, it is a knowledge that only the husband should experience, and vice versa. It's described in places as sacred, and should be treated as such. There's also the flip side to sex when used for "fun". Most of the Biblical writers touch on the subject of Sexual immorality. The Mosaic law speaks at length on this very topic, and describes casual sex as a part of Sexual immorality along with other similar acts. According to Moses, casual sex is attoned for by marrying each other. Also, so called "casual sex" with a married person is adultry, which is viewed as on par with Idolatry according to Hosea. Paul even warns about there being other consequences to sexually immoral acts other than that of sin, hinting to what we now know as STDs. Jalek |
