1Co7

A healthy happy fulfilling sexual relationship in marriage is key to living purely in any culture. Paul encouraged every believing couple to rightly think about meeting each others sexual needs in this God-given context. Too often christian couples do poorly when it comes to a sexual relationship. This should not be true. Christian couples should be having the most fulfilling sex lives!

On the other hand, the key to living purely if you are unmarried is a vital and meaningful relationship with Jesus. Paul actually said single is a "better" way to live. He said this, not to devalue marriage, but rather to encourage singles to pursue Jesus without distraction. A married person has to be concerned with their spouse. If they have kids, they must also be concerned about them. Those who are single can be focused on serving the Lord with their whole lives!

Are you married? How is your sex life? Are you single? Are you using your life to fulfill God's purposes OR are you focused on getting married? This chapter has much to say about these things.
