Sex Before Dinner, Does God Approve? - Page 12

sex before dinner,
after dinner,
during dinner,
instead of dinner,
any time is all right in my opinion.

In my opinion Hebrews 13:4 says that marriage is honorable but adultery/infidelity is wrong. It also says that the marriage bed is undefiled. In my opinion that means that whatever two consenting marriage partners do is OK and it is none of my business and we all should stay out of their bedroom and leave them alone.

I thought the sexual indecency was homosexual sex.

I wouldn't think God has something against that part of the body. (I do, but I wouldn't think God does).

The "sin of Sodom" has been long speculated.

Just a thought

Is that why there seems to be more of it on fox news than on MSN?

The sin of Sodom is spelled out in Ezekiel 16:47-51.
The sexual term we designate as "sodomy" was just one of several wrongs.

It was called Sodomy. The abomination part is described and the pride, haughtiness, and others issues were in addition to the sodomy.

Most commentators and language scholars recognize this feature of Jude’s remark, as evinced by their treatment of Jude 7. For example, the New Analytical Greek Lexicon defines heteros in Jude 7 as “illicit” (Perschbacher, 1990, p. 177). Williams identified “strange flesh” as “unnatural vice” (1960, p. 1023). Barclay wrote: “What the men of Sodom were bent on was unnatural sexual intercourse, homosexual intercourse, with Lot’s two visitors. They were bent on sodomy, the word in which their sin is dreadfully commemorated” (1958, p. 218). Alford correctly translated the Greek as “other flesh,” and defined the phrase as “[other] than that appointed by God for the fulfillment of natural desire” (1875, 4:533

The marriage bed, but what about the dinner table or say the living room? Is that undefiled?

Yeah, it was all about looking beautiful....And giving God your best, which I agree, but I think the topic should have been something else....Nothing about sex though.

I don't know, I see it as an "exit" not an "entrance." I don't believe God intended that part of the human anatomy to be used for sexual activity. Animals don't even go there...
