A. Definition Marriage may be defined as that lifelong and exclusive state in which a man and a woman are wholly commited to live with each other in sexual relationship under conditions normally witnessed to by their social group or society. Although Christian opinion is divided on the necessity of sexual intercourse for validating marriage, Paul plainly taught that it is the specific act by which man and woman become one flesh.

Sacredness Of Sexual Intimacy

Is Oral Sex a Sin

1 Corinthians 7:5 NKJV

5 Do not deprive one another except with consent for a time, that you may give yourselves to fasting and prayer; and come together again so that Satan does not tempt you because of your lack of self-control.

Lets be very clear Oral sex..

Is oral sex a sin if done within a marriage?

Many, perhaps most, Christian married couples have had this question.

What makes it difficult is the fact that the Bible nowhere says what is allowed or disallowed sexually between a husband and wife, other than, of course, any sexual activity that involves another person (swapping, threesomes, etc.) or that involves lusting after another person (pornography). Outside of these two restrictions, the principle of “mutual consent” would seem to apply

(). While this text specifically deals with abstaining from sex/frequency of sex, “mutual consent” is a good concept to apply universally in regards to sex within marriage. Whatever is done, it should be fully agreed on between the husband and his wife. Neither spouse should be forced or coerced into doing something he/she is not completely comfortable with. If oral sex is done within the confines of marriage and in the spirit of mutual consent, there is not a biblical case for declaring it to be a sin.

Is Not Having Sex in a marriage a sin?

1 Corinthians 7:5 NLT

5 Do not deprive each other of sexual relations, unless you both agree to refrain from sexual intimacy for a limited time so you can give yourselves more completely to prayer. Afterward, you should come together again so that Satan won’t be able to tempt you because of your lack of self-control.

thats it!!!
