Pleasures of Sex

 

CARNAL CONCEPTS – Birth Control Bylaw

 

            In this, “broad” (Matthew 7:13) minded world with boastful backing of that which is bad to God, none catch or consider the consequences of conceding to their carnal cravings (1 Timothy 5:6).  We consistently fail to take into account antiquity where even angels seduced by sensualism started the flood of God’s displeasure with their disproportionate desires (Genesis 6:2-3).  Sodom and Gomorrah’s portrayal preaches (Jude 1:7), yet God’s punishing penalty in life to come contracts compassion for their contravention in view of the greater light (Matthew 11:23-24).  Let us not forget Babylonia, Persia, Greece, and the Roman Empire, all materially and morally miscarried inwardly inviting independent injury.  A government’s greatness (people), is given by God – a fact our forefathers fully foresaw.  As our unity in understanding this concept continues to erode, it’s paramount to provide a panorama for the revived Roman region.

            Contemporary commencement of the current catch began in 1930, with the prurient perception that pleasures of sex outweigh procreative purpose.  Coitus interruptus is clearly condemned (Genesis 38:8-10); precedence passed over, the Lambeth Conference conferred contraceptives to church.  Devil in detail, and his design decreed his doctrine, the pleasures of sex (1Timothy 4:1-2).  God’s gift graciously given (Genesis 33:5), restrains not fiendish robbery of His reward and resolution (Psalm 127:3-5).  Children, the unequivocal undertaking of the Utmost (Psalm 139:13-16, Isaiah 44:2, 44:24, Job 31:15), a banned blessing (Luke 1:42); by Birth Control Bylaw.

            Excuses ensue and exalt error as everyone expresses God doesn’t directly declare contraceptives contraband; precedence passed over (Genesis 38:8-10).  Prosper the perception that sexual pleasure is a path apart from procreation.  Manufactured by modern man, the pleasures of sex permeate the pastoral popularly; now we proclaim romance the rule required in relationships instead of God’s rule of religious responsibility (Romans 7:2-3).  Saying sex is satisfying, and should be savored without consequence of children clearly cries any animalistic amusement is allowed if not accurately annotated by God; allegedly of course, Spirit strikingly signals the sinner (John 16:8).  Today, in instances intentionally intimated by God, we see directly denying deviant deeds is no indemnity (Mark 10:11-12, Romans 1:26-27), as groups generate greedy goals from God’s guidebook (2 Timothy 4:3-4) to suit savored sexual sin situations. 

            The purpose of passionate pleasure is to promote procreation and confine its companionship in a conjugal covenant (Genesis 1:28).  Babies blossom best in a godly bridal backdrop – that goal glorifies God (Titus 2:4-5), the person producing people for His pleasure (Revelation 4:11), not preventing them.  Conception is connected with the carnal contentment (Genesis 4:1).  Even patriarchs perceived procreation the product of pleasure (Genesis 18:10-12).  Prior to 1930, all churches considered contraceptives contraband.  Social strain swayed their sentiments (James 4:4).  I hem and haw here for the church’s current hedonistic and homoerotic harmonies (Jude 1:4).  Previous positions presumed but two paths, the path of life or the path of death (John 8:12), and while the paths have not altered, attitudes against God arise anew to attack His path of life.  In God’s path He promised provision, and it was the “seed” that secured salvation (Acts 3:25).  The prevention of planting this purpose is considered corrupt through contraceptives considering God saw the seed as the soul source (Malachi 2:15).

            Deliberate destruction of God’s “natural law” design is a sin society supposes suitable (Romans 1:20, 29-32).  The natural law intention of intercourse is “issue” (Genesis 48:6).  The pleasure promotes procreation and partnership in this purpose, not the participants (Psalm 128:3).  Selfish sexual satisfaction succeeded by contraceptives has consumed the conjugal covenant (Colossians 3:5-6).  Soon since 1930, solemnized union stability became susceptible, and separations started rising rapidly at a rate round 50% (Luke 16:18).  Erstwhile, ecclesiasts encourage natural ways with which wedded companions could control the pair of passion and propagation, and for centuries Christians controlled craving and family capacity without contraceptives while continuing to serve Savior and spouse selflessly (1 Corinthians 7:5).  The Hebrews honed the holy habit 3,000 years before Bible believing Christians cared to control their cravings.  

Once a biblical ethic is established, every employment of it is not essential (Genesis 1:28, 38:8-10).  For example, the ethic that embezzlement is sinful is superbly settled in Scripture; an exhaustive enumeration of every theft is not essential.  Similarly, since the standard that contraception is erroneous as established by express disapproval when declared by God’s doctrine (Genesis 1:28, 38:8-10), each one example of every contraceptive doesn’t have to be dealt with to determine God disapproves.  By artificially attacking the act of conception with contraceptives and constraining what God created commonplace, one demonstrates a determined decision to distinguish their desire above God’s design (1 Timothy 5:14).  Selfish; you refuse to refrain or use reasonable routines; you’re really replying the pleasures of sex cancel out control of carnal cravings cause children are not convenient (1 Thessalonians 4:4-5)?  Through birth babies breach to become souls the Savior can save if schooled in sanctity (Proverbs 22:6).  Your sin source stems from a self-centered covet of corporeal concerns over godly character (2 Timothy 2:22).  If you’re a saint, show some sexual self-control (1 Peter 2:11). 

 

The cry of course is if one ceases to use contraceptives they will have countless children.  God was intentional in inventing this; it is His inheritance (Psalm 127:3-5).  We are aware the womb was fashioned for God’s fame, and He controls conception consequently (Genesis 29:31, 30:22).  To consign your commitment to a contraceptive is an insult and indiscretion in God’s eyes whose power and purposes presides over that inner portion (Jeremiah 17:5, Romans 14:23).  The Christian’s activity is always in the assurance and assistance of the Holy Ghost (Galatians 5:16).  Before you believed beyond suspicion to the salvation of your soul, so why on breeding and begetting babies has your heart retired its reasonable repose in God; rather resting in a ruse of man (Galatians 5:7-8)?  Why?  Because the bliss you beg for is by far the focal of your feelings, forsaking what God says, or your faith in following Him (1 Jn 2:15-17).  This apathetic approach to the marriage association accustoms so many to abort, like the abuse affected by Birth Control Bylaw (Hebrews 13:4).
