What Happens When People Have Sexual Intercourse?
Sexual intimacy is one of the beautiful benefits or a marriage between a man and woman. Marriage is not just about sex, however a sexless marriage is a dead marriage. In a sexless marriage, a husband and wife just become room mates. This is not Gods plan or design.
Some groups treat sexual intercourse (sexual intimacy) as part of dating and selecting your husband or wife. Others treat sex as a physical activity to fulfill their fleshly desires. When people talk about sexual activity, they mostly see it as something men and women do to show affection to those they love. They see it as physical or a carnal act . Most don’t understand that there is more happening when a man and woman come together. That’s why the Bible has very strong teachings on sex. Sex is special for a husband and wife. Sex is not for unmarried people. In fact, sex outside marriage is called fornication. Sex between people not married to each other (but married to others) is called cheating. The human is a three part being with spirit, soul, and body. The soul of a human contains their mind, their will, and their emotions.
The Bible says when they come together; they become one flesh. Two bodies become one body. Their is a momentary tie up between the male and female. Their is also a spiritual tie up between the two. Through two spirit-beings coming together, God created the seed and egg (sperm and egg) to conceive a new spirit being. A baby! This is how humans have been able to continue in the world for generations.
Babies take on the characteristics of their parents. Both bad and good. However, the miraculous creative work in the womb of the seed and egg are only something the Creator can do. He set this in action in His design of sex.
When people have sex with multiple partners, there is an emotional tie between the two. Each time, the sexually actively person has intercourse it confuses themselves in their soul area (mind, will, and emotions). There is an emotional tie made. They become more and more emotionally dissolved by their acts.
Sex is beautiful. Sex is good. Sex is God Almighty’s design for His people to enjoy. Like anything, sexual intimacy can be twisted and perverted. When a husband and wife marry they consummate the relationship in the marriage bed. However, the sexual relationship is the closest intimacy between the husband and wife. Although not sexual, we are to be intimate with God ourselves. Believers are called the Bride of Christ. Why? Jesus Christ brought us into right relationship with God by dying on the cross on our behalf making us righteous like God so we can have a pure and intimate relationship with God.
