People have no problem with the indissolubility of marriage. The issue is the Church's requirement of a state issued marriage certificate prior to being married in a church. Now, we serve two masters. The Church says we can't get out but the state says we can and promises that it'll be worth our while to do so. Which way do you think people will go? The Church is requiring us to ask the state's permission first before God's permission hence making the church simply a pretty event space. It's a pre-requisite to show proof of participation in secular marriage and, by default, agree to abide by all the divorce laws, prior to being granted a marriage ceremony in a church. How was this allowed to happen? If the Church would go back to not registering marriages with the state, men would marry again. It is the Church's fault for requiring participation in secular marriage laws that has driven men out of marriage. Separate the two and marriage becomes a good option for men. Until then, men are better off not being married. Men aren't afraid of getting married, they are afraid of divorce. The Church is allowing divorce by requiring our participation in secular marriage.

The intimacy that married couples have is a foreshadow of the intimacy Jesus seeks with each and every one of us individually. God compares our relationship to him to that of a husband and wife (Ephesians 5:22-33). In heaven that relationship will be in full effect as their will be no sin. When we receive our glorified bodies we will be changed so that we will be “like him” just like eve was made in the likeness of Adam (Philippians 3:21) So what we can see from this scripture is that God will create a new type of intimacy/intercourse between us and him which will far surpass even the best sex in this life. We will be like the angels in the sense we will not get or be given into marriage as we will all be a part of one eternal union with Jesus Christ. As I stated before this is what marriage foreshadows but will not be needed once we see him face to face. So yes Jesus will be our soulmate in the heavenly places. We will be like the angels in the sense we will not get or be given into marriage as we will all be a part of one eternal union with Jesus Christ. As I stated before this is what marriage between humans foreshadows but will not be needed once we see him face to face. Everything in this life points to God including sex.

When I first encountered the opinion that bikinis are problematic, I just didn't want to accept it. But I knew immediately it was true. Getting rid of my 2 piece swimwear was a huge leap of faith aided by much grace - literally every suit I owned was a bikini at that time. In additional to societal pressures, I have a long torso and 99% of one pieces are just too short for me...and if I'm being honest, my self consciousness about my cellulite was offset by positive comments about my stomach. How could I afford to cover it up? Fast forward a few years, the word that sums my current experience with swimwear (usually a cute one piece with little shorts) is FREEDOM. I can have fun at the beach or in a pool without giving a second thought to what others may or may not think about my body. It's been the best trade ever - ego for freedom. May God bless all of you who are struggling with the decision to switch to one piece swimwear (or tankinis). As an aside - Jessica Rey is so great! She even has pear shaped, long torso suits.

This might be dragging it too far. If you are saying that men's desire for sex necessarily means that they are looking for God, Paul's case for celibacy crumbles, the sacredness of monogamy crumbles. It remains a mystery how sexuality works prior to the fall and this tendency to over beautify sexuality is just as dangerous as neglecting or avoiding it. The reason why men seek out sex is because they actually desire a relationship, and it is the covenantal relationship between a husband and a wife that reflects the beauty of the covenant between Jesus and the Church. Sexual expression is designed as a physical dimension of that covenantal union between a husband and a wife that doesn't continue into eternity. Though the emotional and Spiritual fruits may, the it is nevertheless temporal, and there is no need to overly glamorize it as to say looking tor sex is looking for God

You do not understand male anatomy very well, or you would realize that men cannot wait until arousal begins then simply stop. We have to avoid ANYTHING that could POSSIBLY cause arousal, which greatly limits ALL physical intimacy; particularly in young healthy males. Women are different, and not often understanding if a young man wants not to kiss, hug, or hold hands. They tend to take it as a sign of complete disinterest, or a lack of affection.

Here's the thing, which you did touch on. Not all bikinis are the same. My thinking here is two fold, though I agree people should clothe themselves appropriately. First off, in the privacy of your home pool, bikinis are fine, and are great for getting a tan, and people should have the choice to have one. Second, you can pick one that covers your bottom and bosom well. For actual swimming I dislike them as they tend to not stay put well, especially if they are too skimpy. Third, while I believe women need to be responsible for their own dignity, men also need to be responsible for their own thoughts. No amount of clothing will change impure thoughts, just as no one can control the way another chooses to dress. We are ultimately only responsible for ourselves and its unfair to place responsibility on another when they don't have any means of control of another besides themselves. In short, my husband likes my bikini, so I wear it at home in our pool. When I'm in a public setting I have a one piece. Fourth point I will make is that regardless what suit you choose they are all form fitting due to the nature of the material used, which is chosen not because it is clingy or revealing, but because it doesn't absorb water in large amounts and dries quickly, which have two obvious applications: not having a heavy garment that can cause drowning and the obvious bane of women in particular die to our God given anatomy, yeast infection caused by prolonged contact to moisture ridden garments in that area. Sometimes we have to make comprises in our choices of dress. I believe it can be done appropriately to a given situation while still remaining practical. Swim in your one piece and after you dry a bit, throw on a wrap. Best of both worlds, especially since we have access to different things now than were available in the old days. We will all be faced with challenges in our lives, but I believe our minds are the most important thing to keep in the right place, not just what we have to wear. I really never gave much thought to other bathers attire, unless it was grossly inappropriate, but it tends to be more of a personal disgust, since I don't particularly want to see other people's bottoms and such. If you're covered, I have no problem. Once upon a time, Adam and Eve were naked, and because of their innocence there was no sin. God said it was good. We know better now, also because of them, but we can still start with our minds. It must have been an important detail, or it would not have been in the story. I believe the significance is more than simply them gaining knowledge, but why God thought they didn't need that knowledge, because their innocent pure thoughts were higher than what was in front of them.

Fourth point I will make is that regardless what suit you choose they are all form fitting due to the nature of the material used, which is chosen not because it is clingy or revealing, but because it doesn't absorb water in large amounts and dries quickly, which have two obvious applications: not having a heavy garment that can cause drowning and the obvious bane of women in particular die to our God given anatomy, yeast infection caused by prolonged contact to moisture ridden garments in that area. Sometimes we have to make comprises in our choices of dress. I believe it can be done appropriately to a given situation while still remaining practical. Swim in your one piece and after you dry a bit, throw on a wrap. Best of both worlds, especially since we have access to different things now than were available in the old days. We will all be faced with challenges in our lives, but I believe our minds are the most important thing to keep in the right place, not just what we have to wear. I really never gave much thought to other bathers attire, unless it was grossly inappropriate, but it tends to be more of a personal disgust, since I don't particularly want to see other people's bottoms and such. If you're covered, I have no problem. Once upon a time, Adam and Eve were naked, and because of their innocence there was no sin. God said it was good. We know better now, also because of them, but we can still start with our minds. It must have been an important detail, or it would not have been in the story. I believe the significance is more than simply them gaining knowledge, but why God thought they didn't need that knowledge, because their innocent pure thoughts were higher than what was in front of them.
I totally agree with your position of not wanting to see other people's butts. For me this also applies to the current trend of wearing leggings as pants 🤢. People might want to show off their behinds but not everyone wants to see them.
