I really wanted to avoid this topic cause it reminds me of a certain muslim preacher I used to see while working in Kisumu.

Who is Paul? Whats his purpose?
But the Lord said to Ananias, gGo! This man (Paul) is my chosen instrument to carry my name before the Gentiles and their kings and before the people of Israel. I will show him how much he must suffer for my name.h Acts 9:15-16


>He knew that even if sex was totally forbidden, people

>more attractive. I understand this as him saying that
>sex (with a husband/wife) is BAD and that humans should
>avoid it if they want to serve the Lord.

I am shocked with your kind of selective reading, reasoning and understanding.

I will let sleeping dogs .....

>St Augustine also took it a step further and connected
>sex with guilt, all this from the view and intepretation
