Genesis 2:24⎪Marriage and Sex: Fall and Redemption

Damian Grateley (2022-9-11)

In Genesis, chapter three, Adam and Eve sin against God and sin enters the world. Sin distorts the way we view things.

One of these distortions is the idea that sexual intimacy outside of marriage doesn’t harm us. Here are three biblical reasons why God rejects sex outside of marriage:

  1. It inhibits the very intimacy and fulfilment we seek

  2. It ends up using and harming all involved

  3. It misrepresents Jesus Christ
