John from Kentucky:
Sex

Ray -
I have searched many Bible translations and still am not certain what God approves as acceptable sexual acts between a Man and a Woman within Marriage.
Some say that the Bible is silent on the details of Sex in Marriage.
Others refer to the 'Song of Soloman' and suggest that this confirms certain acts as acceptable.
Do you have two or three Scriptural Witnesses that attest to the 'righteous' sexual union between a Man and His Wife in Holy Matrimony?
I know that the Scriptures state that God classifies the following as an abomination in his sight:
1. Humans having sex with animals.
2. A man having sex with another man.
3. A woman having sex with another woman.
As you know, this is taboo to talk about and discuss in most Family Homes, and within the established churches.
But what are we to tell our own children if we ourselves are not certain what God approves and what God states is an abomination.
Thanks, Regards, George.
Dear George: I do not like to teach on subjects that are neither discussed in the Scriptures, nor made completely evident by nature. But why should we suppose that animals would set the proper pattern for human sexual behavior? Also, why are you assuming that there ARE sexual things forbidden between a husband and his wife? If God considered it a gross abomination, don't you think God could have stated: "Thou shalt not kiss thy wife or thy husband below the neck"? After all, I guess in this case, nature does teach us that breasts are for feeding babies, not entertaining husbands. Of course Song of Solomon would differ on this point for sure. Most counseling pastors just lie about these things anyway.
God be with you,
Ray
The above is one of the funny emails from Ray. He states, in a joking manner, that a woman's breasts may be for feeding babies and not for entertaining husbands. ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D
Since humor seems to be frowned upon on the Forum lately, Ray should have been more careful in his statements. But one reason I admired Ray---he didn't follow the politically correct, Christian way of thinking.
Kat:
John, I don't think Ray was joking there at all, and he did very well of being balanced about sex in marriage is not bad/wrong.
It seems that some people's lewd sense of humor needs to get out of the gutter though, at least when they are here. And I most certainly believe that this forum is to be held to a much higher standard than what a lot of people find as humorous.
mercy, peace and love

If I could have spoken with Ray about Number 15 on this list, I would say…Hey! I like the Beatles "I want to hold your hand". Compared to the trash that is called "music" today, that song from 51 years ago is practically holy. Grumpy old man..
Farlsborough:
It's creat-ING, not creat-ED! If Adam was created in God's image, why oh why did he sin?!
Go through the door, confess with your mouth, call on the name of the Lord, enter by the narrow gate... What IS all this stuff?! What is it?! Well, it's all the same thing. It's all one.
"Oh that? It's a gift from my wife. Have I ever used it? Hell no!"
This last one - the comparison of faith as a gift that we must use, like a treadmill - was not only funny but very memorable and very useful to me, both in terms of remembering the concept and explaining to others. I look forward to thanking Ray for this and all the other stuff one day.
