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.
