To: Cronos
1 Corinthians 7:4 The wife hath not power of her own body, but the husband: and likewise also the husband hath not power of his own body, but the wife.

5 Defraud ye not one the other, except it be with consent for a time, that ye may give yourselves to fasting and prayer; and come together again, that Satan tempt you not for your incontinency.

Scripture is very clear here that married men and women are not to with hold sex from one another.

James 4:17  Therefore to him that knoweth to do good, and doeth it not, to him it is sin.

Yes, that is true. If a spouse requests sex and the other refuses on a regular basis, that is a sin. But that does not apply to the situation where both spouses mutally agree to not have sex, which is not a sin.
