Is Sex Meant For Good or Bad?

By Jaelyn

The Bible reveals that sex is God’s good gift to human beings. Like all of God’s good gifts, sex has been used for both good and evil throughout all of history. Many people say that sex is bad and you shouldn’t do it..others say that there is nothing wrong with it and that you should just have “fun.”

In my opinion, I believe God made sex to be good. I’m not saying that you can do it whenever and wherever you want. But what I’m saying is that God made sex so that we could reproduce. God made us so that we could worship Him. He didn’t mean go and do it with random people. He meant for you to do it with your husband or wife.

Genesis 1:28 reads, “And God blessed them. And God said to them, ‘Be fruitful and multiply and fill the earth and subdue it, and have dominion over the fish of the sea and over the birds of the heavens and over every living thing that moves on the earth.’”God created relationships and sex because he wants us to grow our families and produce more people who reflect His image.

The reason why I chose to write about this is that the church doesn’t really talk about it. I’ve always heard about how it’s wrong to commit adultery, but I’ve never heard the church talk about how God views sex. Everyone these days just uses it in the wrong way and they are living in sin, but in reality, God meant it for good.

I am waiting till I’m married to have sex because that’s what God said to do. Now if you have already done it, God still loves you the same and He forgives you. Be pure and make the right choices!
