1 Corinthians 7 verse 5.

If there is one thing we all know as an absolute fact, it is that Christians are against sex. Everybody says so! Many think that Christians believe that it is only for the procreation of children - I do not know which Pope was responsible for that unscriptural idea! It has certainly fuelled the propagandists' cause.
The trouble is that this is really just one more 'urban myth' - and one which has been deliberately used by the enemies of the Church.
In The Old Testament we have one of the more erotic pieces of literature from the ancient world. It is called 'The Song of Solomon (or Songs).'
In 1 Corinthians, Paul speaks of sex and marriage and goes on to explain how each should 'fulfil their marital duty'. This is about SEX. But he does not leave it there, he goes on to say "Do not deprive each other....." He is talking about SEX. Read the context .And, he does NOT mean occasionally!
So do Christians oppose sex? They do BUT only out-of -context sex. The correct context is within marriage, which for the modernists who do not understand, is between one man and one woman.

Adopt this approach and it would cause a few social problems, BUT it would eliminate MILLIONS.

I used to travel on this noxious airline. I'll pay a lot more to avoid them like the plague!

Ryanair forced me to a pay a £50 baggage fee for a ridiculous reason - I thought they were joking. Have YOU been forced to pay an extra fee?...
