To: Dr. Eckleburg
1 Corinthians 7

1Now concerning the matters about which you wrote: "It is good for a man not to have sexual relations with a woman." 2But because of the temptation to sexual immorality, each man should have his own wife and each woman her own husband. 3 The husband should give to his wife her conjugal rights, and likewise the wife to her husband. 4For the wife does not have authority over her own body, but the husband does. Likewise the husband does not have authority over his own body, but the wife does. 5 Do not deprive one another, except perhaps by agreement for a limited time, that you may devote yourselves to prayer; but then come together again, so that Satan may not tempt you because of your lack of self-control.

AMEN!

Truly, Christianity is the most satisfying, harmonious way to go through life - married with children, all serving and glorifying the Triune God alone.

That all people don't understand this fact is sad, but to be expected in a fallen world. When even men who call themselves Christian don't know this, it's even more piteous.

But the Papists insist they know better than God..... And of course when we bring up such topics WE are the ones who are practicing unGodliness.
