Some are interested in this thread.

Some of the admins are offended by this thread.
Some of the admins feel talking about this is helpful.

Just wanted to make this public so that everyone understands.

It is controversial.
I agree with MP when he said, "This is a discussion forum where people come to present ideas and learn other viewpoints. If it's done tastefully, it can be of great benefit, especially to people who feel uncomfortable discussing such issues with people they interact with on a daily basis."

I believe the subject is being broached in that manner. I don't have a problem with it.

It's been a bit "borderline" at times, but I think overall, most of the posters here have been careful to be circumspect tasteful, and respectful, in dealing with the topic(s) at hand.

And of course, those who are offended can simply choose not to look.

So far, there have been no verified instances of anyone being forced at gunpoint to look at any of the threads here on AFF.

Well, that would just be too legalistic!

Thanks TRF!

I know it's very uncomfortable for some. I also know that I was raised pretty naive and would have profited from having tasteful discussions.

I believe I shared on another thread how naive I was when I was in Bible College. The girls who worked in medical records gave me education through pictures and what they were told. I was engaged and asked my mother if we should have "that discussion", and she said, "Don't worry, it comes naturally". I didn't believe her then and still don't!

Blessings, Rhoni

What are your thoughts on this?

Is this Pastor out of line?

Can sex become "legalistic"?
Out of line doesn't begin to describe this "mandate". This is something that should be between a husband and wife and not commanded from the pulpit. It's an abuse of authority and sick.

plug-in. There is no love (Power) there. IF it's not love, what is it.True-Love
connects in a RIGHT way. Lust connects in a way that has to be "rigged up".
Lust connects in a false or WRONG.

Love lasts! Love satisfies! God is LOVE! We all need MORE of GOD (Spirit).

Lust is never satisfied! IF it is lust, it will be made manifest in time. Lust when
conceived bringeth forth death.(spiritual, death of a relationship, and could
possibly bring forth physical death.)

I know of two wives (not related to church in any way) who didn't do the
things their husbands wanted them to, and both men turned to men that do
those kinds of things. Is there a unholy spirit involved here! What is the
natural use of the woman? A minister once said that there is a spirit connect-
ed to homosexuality that if given in to, is almost if not impossible to overcome.
I would want to avoid that spirit like the plague!

These things are not in anyway to be offensive. Since this thread came
up, I do feel I have some input to share.

(Bro. Michael Phelps, dear Brother, you did not in anyway offend me last
evening. Went to church and did not get a chance to respond until now.)

We are all hopefully endeavoring to please God before we please ourselves!
We MUST seek to please HIM and put HIM first and HE will direct us in those
things that concern us.

Blessings,

Re: Seven Days of Sex... Woo Hoo!! :)

Didn't some of you throw a fit when a certain West Coast Pastor liked to discuss adult things from the pulpit???

And does this make a Ed Young Relevant?
