We Love God!

God: "I looked for someone to take a stand for me, and stand in the gap" (Ezekiel 22:30)

Often indifference to our Creator’s wise guidelines reveals a heart that is simply disinterested in its own happiness!
Randy Smith

Sex may be enjoyed, but only according to the Biblical principle that “it is more blessed to give than to receive.” Indeed, the most enjoyable aspect of sexual intercourse is not the personal release experience in one’s own orgasm but rather in the pleasure of satisfying one’s marriage partner. Husbands and wives are required to satisfy their partners. He may not withhold his body in order to get even with his wife. She may not use sex as a bargaining factor. Sexual relations involve giving one’s self freely and fully in love to the other in order to fulfill the other’s need. Scripture is not prudish about sex, but some Christians have become prudish. As if they knew more than God!

122:1 <> I was glad when they said to me, “Let’s go to Yahweh’s house!”

122:2 Our feet are standing within your gates, Jerusalem;

122:3 Jerusalem, that is built as a city that is compact together;

122:4 Where the tribes go up, even Yah’s tribes, According to an ordinance for Israel, To give thanks to the name of Yahweh.

122:5 For there are set thrones for judgment, The thrones of David’s house.

122:6 Pray for the peace of Jerusalem. Those who love you will prosper.

122:7 Peace be within your walls, And prosperity within your palaces.

122:8 For my brothers’ and companions’ sakes, I will now say, “Peace be within you.”

122:9 For the sake of the house of Yahweh our God, I will seek your good.
