Healthy sexuality

[PetriFB]

Sexuality set by God

Mankind, whos lives little before the second coming of Jesus is according to Jesus, adulterer generation. Jesus also spoke, that this generation accepts sin of Sodom and Gomorrah, which is homosexuality. Each person believes somewhere and functions according to that. Purpose of this writing is not force anybody anywhere. Purpose of this writing is bring forth the teaching of the Bible from the sexuality of a men. God has Himself created a man and set sexuality to the men and women. Sexuality set by God is meant practising between man and woman, which is based on the perpetual and lifetime relationship of the man and woman, in which they bind to love each others and to live together as the husband and wife, until death separates them. Only place to practising of the sex is so permanent and lifetime lasting relationship between husband and wife, in Finnish language we are using this word a marriage.

Sin, which affect in the heart of the man is also successful manage to break sexuality, which God has purpose in marriage between husband and wife. In Bible God himself teaches from the homosexualness like this "Thou shalt not lie with mankind, as with womankind: it is abomination. " In the text appear word abomination, what is in hebr. towebah, which means; disgusting thing, abomination and unclean act or matter. Lord God has regulated His word that man would not practise sex with the other man, because it is against order of creation.

Contrary sexuality of God will

"Or do you not know that unjust ones will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be led astray, neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor abusers, nor homosexuals, nor thieves, nor covetous ones, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor plunderers shall inherit the kingdom of God. And some were these things, but you were washed, but you were sanctified, but you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus, and in the Spirit of our God." 1 Cor 6:9-11 Jay.P.Green literal translation

In the letter of Corinthians appear greek word arsenokoites, which means; one who lies with a male as with a female, sodomite, homosexual. Word of God teaches clearly, that homosexualness is a sin.

" For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature: And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompence of their error which was meet. And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient; " Romans 1:26-28

From letter of Romans we see clearly, that homosexualness and lesbian are a sin. Sex which happening in the marriage between the man and woman, is natural sex and such kind of sex what God has purposed. Homosexualness and lesbian are according to Bible teaching, abnormal sex connection and a sin.

The homosexualness is not illness and not in the genes of the person, such thing often hears to be talked about today. Sin always distort will of God and has also distorted in their hearts of the sexuality's, which practise homosexualness and lesbian. Lust, which sin influenced brings also some people hearts sexuality desire towards his own gender. Homosexual and lesbian are sins, from which God calls people to repent. The sin spoils and breaks persons always, even though if you get enjoyment from making the sin, so however it finally destroys a man. Healthy ordinances and regulations have been set to protection people and not for the harm of the people. Think about even though traffic regulations, if they are taken out of use, so then would take place many injuring, and fatal traffic accidents happening, and many kind of the traffic accidents would increase. Traffic laws are to be aid and for the protection to people. Same is also of the Bible teachings. Bible teachings is not purpose tease and not spoil persons, but it purpose is to protect human life and be as the assistance to people.

In Finland were I live lutheran church and many of its bishops are thinking same way than bishop Wille Riekkinen has said: "I hope, that homosexuals and lesbians could participate to the work of the church as a members, workers and also as decision-makers. " Bishop Juha Pihkala has said: "for me would be better, if homosexuals and lesbians would practise of their homosexual tendency in permanent relationship. " Teaching and opinion of the bishops is badly in the conflict with Bible teaching.

The divorce is not the will of God .

Jesus spoke also about increasing of the divorces before His second coming. Why do people divorce? Surely many reasons. There is now not purpose to make anybody guilty of anything. Divorce is bad thing, but when that we can repent. Also if your marriage partner betray you and leave you, so he /she is doing sin against you and the God. The marriage is holy in the eyes of God and about that wouldn't get divorce. Current society lives rushy rhythm, in which matters proceed with enormous fast. This kind of urgency society produces impatient people, which don't have ability to patient life style, and that patient in the relationship of marriage is needed enormous much. The selfishness is also often as the reason of the divorce. The spouse didn't take attention with the right kind of way, but all activity in marriage is based on to the selfishness.

God gave to the man and woman sexual desire with each other and this desire leads marriage to healthy sex, in which both take attention another and satisfying another. The lust is selfish, which wants only for himself satisfaction, but doesn't give it to another. Often especially men in their lust's satisfy only their own need and their wife remaining in this selfish sex without satisfaction. The lust so breaks sex and couple's relationship, but healthy sexual desire gives to the both sexual satisfaction. One reason to escapades are selfish lust's of the spouse, which drive another to peer, if on the half of the neighbour fence would be greener grass. Man and woman has to take in theirs marriage attention to another and after that work out sexuality set by God, in which both husband and wife getting sexual satisfaction.

Selfish sexuality is such, in which is got enjoyment only for himself, which as the consequence the spouse remains without real affection and love. Like that way then this side in marriage is broken, which may get person to go and get sexual needs and satisfactions somewhere else. Healthy sexuality noticed always first another needs and only then their own. Both party will be as the giving party and not in the role of a taker. The sexuality is teamwork, which as the purpose is, that both spouses sexuality needs comes to be satisfacted. Mark of the ripe sexual life is desire and skill takes into consideration his/her spouse needs. If one or the other functions on this area of the sexuality selfishly, so problems formed then really larges, in worst cases to divorce. Bible teaches, that when you give then you get. This teaching suits also in the sexuality of the marriage .

The marriage practising place of the sexuality

The prostitution is also one of the problems of this time. Often such people getting to the prostitution, which are incapable to the healthy sexuality in permanent relationship of marriage. These kinds of people want to get satisfaction only for themselves, and they don't take attention needs of theirs partner. The prostitution is also a sin according to word of God, prostitution is a thing, which must done repentance.

Command which is in the tenth command: " Thou shalt not commit adultery." That means adultery and all sorts of immorality and fornication. This word is in hebr. naaph. Extramarital sex is the sin. Bible uses a word naaph also from serving of the idol. Hereby word naaph means also everything what is against the commands of God.

The sex before permanent relationship of the marriage is also immorality, that comes to repent. All kinds of sex is sin, which doesn't happen in the marriage between husband and a wife. Bible teaches, but because of fornication, let each have his own wife, and let each have her own husband.

Sexuality set by God includes so to the marriage. Bible teaches, that in the best way the person enjoys in his life, when he is doing will of God. Will of God is open to all people. God has given to man a handbook (Bible), in which is taught how person has good and safe life in this world. I recommend to you this handbook, which guarantee to you healthy and happy life.

Petri Paavola.

There is a difference in what is healthy and according to God's word and creation, and perversion

Greetings in the name of Christ my friend:

When we begin to identify the desires of men, and to rationalize the effects of these desires on the society around us we walk a very thin line with what God's desires are for mankind as a whole. The basic laws that have been given to us as mankind by God have not changed just as God Himself has not changed. During the times of multiple marriages and cultural decay that was Rome the word of God remained the same even though people tried to cause change in it. The popular opinion has always been to allow mankind to make up the rules and then to adapt God's laws to those rules. We have already bent and twisted things that don't fit what we want to do in the modern church until it is difficult for us to really deal with the truth.

I believe there are many people who have very difficult choices to make about God's law in their lives. I believe that " healty sexual activity " is different from person to person, and it can still be against God's written law.

Our whole purpose for being created is to love and serve God , not do what we want to do. The thing is who are we willing to place first in our lives before our own desires? Is it God or is ourselves? If we want to have a healthy relationship with God and be in the center of His will above all else then we already know what the answer is to that question. It ultmately comes down to that one question if we are brave enough to ask it of ourselves; Who do we love more? For me to answer the question for my own life I had to give up many of my own desires to fit into God's will for my life.

For you and for many others you may choose to continue to ask is there another way? but I don't think so. We can live and serve God our own way or we can live and serve God His way; it is up to our own will to make a decision about what our will to love God is all about, but as for me and my house we have willed to serve the Lord. For me there there is no healthy perversions. There are no clear cut loop holes that we can negotiate through with God as we do with one another. The problem is we are dealing with a perfect being by trying to establish imperfct solutions for what we don't want to accept. I know it is a hard stance, and it hard for me to live by as well. In fact I have to fight against my own will sexually every day to stay in God's will.

I pray that you will find the answers in doing God's will no matter what the influiences are all around. I pray that we can keep in mind the concept of a faithful servant and child of God before our own lusts and desires of the world.

I pray that we are overcomers along with Christ who has shown us that it can be done even unto death if we will only focus upon God's face in this life.

May you richly bless God through your life in Him;

The Unworthy Servant
