What began as moods and failure to accomodate the basics of marriage had blossomed to hypocrisy; why?
The begining of the law was given with the prioritizing of the promises. Leviticus stated clearly to reverance the sanctuary. The Hebrew origianations of this statement wasn't pointing to the Tabernacle because the tabernacle in the same chapters had its own proactive laws.
This could have been stated; "To morally fear the failure of protecting the things of God you have consecrated." Our minds think church, and even the scriptures point to the sabbaths, but, this included so much more in the plans to bless from God.
Marriages are one of God's main focuses to bless our lives. If we neglect to morally fear to protect the bond and union of the marriage, it creates a chasm that God will not walk with us. Later, God stated that to do these things would fulfill the relationship with Him and He would walk with his people, and to neglect?
Defauding a marriage is razor-blade across the throat of love. We cannot change the way we need certain things. Some women have to have a regular confirmation of their value, something a man is not equipped to naturally do. Some men need a regular feeling of a manly shot of championing their home and fulfilling his natural emotion of master and leader. To defraud one another steals a precious part of natural needs and displeases God.
When the woman becomes frustrated and stressed, she begins to demand and expect things beyond her husbands understanding. When the man is neglected, the chasm of love and devotion widens, and his desire to keep, protect and honor is swallowed up in the emotion of resentment.
Sometimes the chasm grows quietly until all love and dedication is washed away in the bitter emotions of self-absorbed neglect. It will eventually turn to the relatonship of God and His people when those emotions are spread outward.
How you treat the things consecrated to God are very important, but nothing does more subtle damage to a congregation as those "unknown" emotions one deals with when they are not fulfilled as a human-being. Eventually the trouble blossums into a negative energy that affects many.
Paul was clear. Defaud not. You do not own your bodies. Simple, huh? The briefest moment of carelessness concerning reverancing this Holy act can destroy hearts and lives for decades.

Bro. Perry,
Great to have you here. Marriage and Family Therapy and Pre-marital counseling would benefit from what you have said here.
Blessings, Rhoni

God gave us our urges ,and married folks should enjoy the physical benefits of marriage if you will.
When married folks don't have intimacy probelms can arise.

I believe as long as it's in the Word it has it's place but to be honest I wouldn't want to discuss my sex life with my pastor. I would rather just discuss it at length with my wife and if I did want a third-party if would be someone who didn't know me!
