What does the Bible say about Human Sexuality?

Getting to Know You:

  • Why do you think its easier to believe our culture
    and our own feelings instead of what God says?
  • Where did you receive your sex ed? Friends,
    home, school, church, entertainment. How did
    that affect your world view on sex?

    Going Deeper:

  • Look up Genesis 2:18-24.
    o Why did God create Eve and how did
    Adam respond to God’s gift?
    o Note vs.24 and list the vows of this 1st
    wedding ceremony.
    o What does it mean to be one flesh and
    how can we wreck that?
    o Can one flesh be restored and how is
    that possible?
  • Why is it so crucial that Jesus endorsed the
    Genesis account of marriage and human
    sexuality in Matt.19:4-7?
  • Look up Genesis 1:28 and Psalm 127:3-5 and
    discuss one purpose for sex in marriage.
    o Why does our culture downplay this
    purpose so much?
  • Look up Prov.5:18-19 and 1 Cor.7:2-5 and discuss
    two other purposes for sex in marriage.
  • Look up the following verses and discuss the
    consequences of a lifestyle of sexual immorality.
    o 1 Cor.6:9-11,18-20, Gal.5:19-21,
    Revelation 22:15, Heb.13:4
    o What’s the difference between
    practicing these things and falling into
    sexual sin?
  • As a single person, what might you do to follow
    God’s design for sex? What about a married
    couple?
    Taking it Home:
  • Memorize a fight verse that deals with an area of
    sexual sin that you struggle with and learn to
    fight with it when tempted.
