The Best Sex Ever: God's Word on Sex


We continued with our latest series called "The Best Sex Ever" last Wednesday at FUEL. The topic for the week was "God's Word on Sex". We looked at many passages that discuss sexual impurity and sexual immorality while using passages that discussed obedience to God and the protection of our bodies. We studied how sex was created by God to be great, not just good and that sex is not just an urge, but a real temptation for people. We also looked at how sex is not just physical, like the world says, but that it is fully spiritual. God's Word is clear to present the pain and consequences that come from pre-marital sex or adultery within marriage. Our beliefs influence our behavior when it comes to our sexul decisions. The question is... do we rely on culture/society, feelings/emotions, or God's Word/standards for making our sexual decisions. God wants sex to be a great thing for us but within the context of marriage between a man and woman. He created it just like He created us. We need to be obedient to our Father in all things, including sexual decisions.

The Best Sex Ever: Created in God's Image


Last Wednesday night we began our 4 week series on "The Best Sex Ever" with our student ministry. The first week was about being created in God's image. We discussed how culture and society influence us wrongly about sex, what the differences between guys and girls are, and how these things need to be embraced by teenagers. The overall theme for this week was about how God loves us no matter what and how each of us is unique in our own way. We have been given wrong information by friends and culture about what real love and sex are. Students today assume that love=sex which is incorrect and sets these kids on the wrong path. TV, movies, music, magazines, etc. cause mass confusion which leads to confusing thinking, and then confusing actions. This week's purpose was to lay a solid foundation for how God created us and what He had in mind for sex to be. I have a question box that allows students to ask questions they have about sex which could make for some interesting weeks to come!
