I'm not sure if I agree, because the words of Jesus have just sprung to mind, where he says, if anyone lusts after a women, he has already committed adultry with her in his heart. Something like that anyway LOL! So perhaps, our sexual feelings are sinful to some degree. Can you see what I'm trying to say? I hope so, because I can't hehehe!!! I suppose our sexual feelings in themselves aren't sinful, we are after all sexual beings, but if they become lustful in nature then they become sinful. And if we allow ourselves to be guided by the sinful desires of our hearts, we run the risk of sinning. Again, I hope I'm making sense! It all comes back to what I said before, so long as we love someone, in a way that is holy and honorable. In a way that is Godly (Godly love) we are not sinning. But it's when we step over that fine line, between love (pure love) and lust, then things get a little hazy! I think a lot of us tend to confuse or mix sex with love! They are two completely different things. Sex is part of love sure, and it is God given and beautiful, but it is designed to be experienced between, a man & a women in the union of Marriage. Not between a man & a boy, or a man and a women outside of the union of marriage. Again, that's when things get hazy. I hope I haven't confused you, cause I think I'm starting to confuse myself hehehe!!! Jordan |
