Joseph has sex with Mary, God says so. She was his wife. Either she had sex with him, or she sinned by with holding sex.

God told you eh?  Did He also tell you about Queen Cleopatra and Emperor Hadrian?  That's such a silly statement, I can't even begin to talk about how silly it is.  Firstly, the Bible doesn't say what you infer and make false assumptions.  Secondly, YOU don't know such details.  Thirdly, you say it's a sin to withold sex, so every woman who's done that has sinned according to you, eh? You bring no proof for this except your own ideas

May I quote your response to me when I said "Paul was speaking for himself, not the Lord?

"Means what Christ said -- He was the servant of the servants -- i.e. to help one another. BTW, I don't pick and choose like you've done above and say oh, this is Paul speaking for himself, not a commandment of the Lord.."

Would you kindly tell me how 1 Corinthians 7:5 fits your understanding of Paul's words and the Lords' commandments. Does this so-called "commandment" have exceptions or does it include all married couples?

1 Corinthians 7:
[5] Do not refuse one another except perhaps by agreement for a season, that you may devote yourselves to prayer; but then come together again, lest Satan tempt you through lack of self-control.
