Topic: Sex, Marriage and Singleness

sex, marriage singleness

 

1 Corinthians 7:17-31

On one hand, our culture doesn't take marriage seriously enough, with 42-45% of first marriages ending in divorce, 60% of second marriages ending in divorce, and 73% of third marriages ending in divorce. 

But on the other hand, our culture takes marriage and romantic love too seriously, seeing it as the end-all solution to our loneliness and lack of purpose. 

In this passage the apostle Paul basically tells the Corinthian church: "Life is too long to take marriage and singleness too seriously."
