Sex and Love
Scheme 2
He wants us to believe that if someone has sex with you he loves you
Whereas True Sex is a climactic expression of true love

The secret of the Pleasure and the Power of Sex, lies in the extent to which two people love and cherish each other

He leads us to believe that because someone has sex with us he/she loves us. But that’s far from the truth.
​
And she shall follow after her lovers, but she shall not overtake them; and she shall seek them, but shall not find them: then shall she say, I will go and return to my first husband; for then was it better with me than now.
Gomer, after leaving the marital home having said:
For she said, ‘I will go after my lovers,
Who give me my bread and my water,
My wool and my flax, my oil and my drink.’
But now she realizes her errors and she says "I wllgo and return to my first husband; for then it was better with me than now".

And Leah conceived, and bare a son, and she called his name Reuben: for she said, Surely the Lord hath looked upon my affliction; now therefore my husband will love me.
Here is Leah, sleeping with her husband, bares his first child but is not convinced about her husband’s love for her. Obviously, Leah believes that love is more than sex. She is searching for something to win her husbands love and she knows that sex is not the answer. For years Leah lived with this dis-satisfaction of sleeping with a man whose love she does not have. I know this because when Reuben was an adolescent he got embroiled in the war for love between Leah and Rachel. Leah, after having borne several children, still thinks she needs to compete for her husband’s attention.

Her father clearly got her into that mess. For the scripture plainly says that Jacob loved Rachel. And here is a lesson for us parents ho9w we influence our children's choices of a partner. You can learn more about this on Brother Browns thursday night program on relationships.

I could remember when I was a teenager a certain mother with her daugter would meet me and she would say "Sally, look Lio, sally, kiss Lio".These Labanic behaviour parents must avoid.

Three times in the word of God, God warns: Husbands Love you wives. Some people say love is involuntarily unconditional. If love was involuntary, why are we asked to love our wives. Love can be very deliberate.
