There is an occasion for everything, and a time for every activity under heaven: – Ecclesiastes 3:1 (HCSB)
Let’s pretend that you’ve never seen a phone before. You had no idea what it was or what it could do. What would you do? Perhaps you’d ask someone. Maybe you’d find some people and ask them what it was. Those people could tell you what they thought it was used for.
Let’s say that one of the people said it made a good flashlight, and showed you how the light on the phone worked. Another said the phone was used to hold papers in place from blowing away. A third person told you how they used the phone as a camera.
So you’d come away with the idea that a phone is a good paperweight, flashlight, and camera. But if you really wanted to know what a phone did, you’d need to go to the person who created the phone and they could tell you all the ins and outs of how it worked and what it could do.
In the same way, when it comes to marriage, sex, sexuality, we need to go to the creator of those things to define them. If all your information about these issues comes from other people, you might not be getting the whole picture. So who created marriage? Who made sex and our sexuality? Well, God did.
Today’s Truth: Build your thinking on God’s Word
So to know the purpose of these things, we need to look to the Bible. In the Bible, God has recorded His purpose in these things. So over the next few days, we’ll look at some scriptures to show what God created and designed from the Bible. Because as Christians we should be building all of our thinking on God’s Word.
Fads, ideas, and opinions change, but God’s word stays the same. He created marriage, sex, and sexuality for a purpose and a time in our lives so let’s see what He says about it in His word.
