Here is part 1 of our sex series with Middle Schoolers. It is happening each week at Common Ground. Everyone else is talking about it...why not the church?
WHAT IS GOD'S PLAN FOR SEX?
THERE ARE TWO LIES ABOUT SEX.
#1) Sex is WRONG - “For everything God created is good…” (1 Timothy 4:4)
#2) Sex is LIMITLESS - “Don't use your body for sexual sin like the people who do not know God.” (1 Thessalonians 4:5)
WHY DID GOD CREATE SEX?
#1) REPRODUCTION - “Then God blessed them and said, “Be fruitful and multiply. Fill the earth and govern it. Reign over the fish in the sea, the birds in the sky, and all the animals that scurry along the ground.” (Genesis 1:28)
#2) MARRIAGE - “So God created man in His own image, in the image of God He created him; male and female He created them.” (Genesis 1:27)
#3) MAN & WOMAN - “As the Scriptures say, ‘A man leaves his father and mother and is joined to his wife, and the two are united into one.’” (Ephesians 5:31)
#4) PLEASURE - “Let your wife be a fountain of blessing for you. Rejoice in the wife of your youth. She is a loving deer, a graceful doe. Let her breasts satisfy you always. May you always be captivated by her love.” (Proverbs 5:18-19)
God’s PLAN for sex is GOOD!
