Song of Songs 1-4; Psalm 119: 57-64
Click here to read these passages:
If you have never read all the way through the Bible before, you
might be surprised when you get to Song of Songs, or Song of Solomon. As The Student Bible states,
“Plenty of people are shocked to find an explicit love song in the Bible –
complete with erotic lyrics. But
Song of Songs is exactly that.” It
is a poem that “helps us develop a Biblical attitude toward married love. Song of Songs reminds us that God
created us male and female in order to bless us with shared joy and enable us
to bring new lives into his world,”
(The Discovery Bible) which is
a pretty way of saying that sex, the way God intended it within marriage, is
not a bad or dirty thing, it is a beautiful thing.
At the beginning of this year our church did a series called, “The
Talk: Love, Marriage, Sex, and Kids.”
I remember such great teaching from our pastor Bret Nicholson on these
subjects. I’m posting the links to
his messages on the topic of sex both today and tomorrow. It is well worth the time to watch
them.
If He is Lord of your life; He should be Lord of all your life,
including this area.
