Adam said, "A man shall leave His parents & find His woman & they shall become one flesh.". When asked about divorce, Jesus answered, "Since the beginning it wasn't so, but Moses allowed a writting of divorcement because of the hardness of man's heart." Grounds for divorce is only because of abuse, adultery or adolatry. Jesus said, "If a man looks at a woman to lust (desire to have for self) after her, He is already committing adultery in His heart. This leads to actually cheating on His wife.
Paul wrote that the husband's body is His wife's & the wife's body is Her husband's & they should not deny each other sexually except for a time of prayer & fasting (considering both are healthy).
Jesus said, ''That some people are born eunuchs & some make themselves eunuchs for the Gospel's sake." Paul encouraged celibacy for the Gospel's sake, but if one could not contain their sexual desires that person needed to find a spouse (of the opposite sex).
The true love relationship between a husband & wife is representative of Christ & the Church. God created people sexual beings & that sex would be enjoyed by married couple, and that life would be created from it. Then the nurturing love of a parent...
Also, since woman was created from man's side, she is not complete without Him, nor is He complete without Her.

Jesus is "The Word of God" so everything written in the Word of God (Bible) is from Jesus
1.There are many Scriptures which indicate that sex outside of marriage is a sin (Acts 15:20; Romans 1:29; 1 Corinthians 5:1; 6:13,18; 7:2; 10:8; 2 Corinthians 12:21; Galatians 5:19; Ephesians 5:3; Colossians 3:5; 1 Thessalonians 4:3; Jude 7). Jesus Himself taught us that to desire something that is sinful is also sinful, “You have heard that it was said, 'Do not commit adultery.' But I tell you that anyone who looks at a woman lustfully has already committed adultery with her in his heart” (Matthew 5:27-28). Proverbs 23:7 says, “For as he thinks within himself, so he is…”
2.The Bible calls “pre-marital sex” fornication. It is repeatedly condemned in Scripture along with all other forms of sexual immorality (Acts 15:20; Romans 1:29; 1 Corinthians 5:1; 6:13,18; 7:2; 10:8; 12:21; Galatians 5:19; Ephesians 5:3; Colossians 3:5; 1 Thessalonians 4:3; Jude 7).
3.Almost an entire book in the Old Testament is dedicated to the subject of passion and sexual pleasure. Song of Solomon is so detailed in its intention of sexual pleasure in marriage that allegories were used to tone it down and Hebrew boys couldn't read it until they were 12, when they became men. God's intention of sex in marriage is clearly intended to be pleasurable. 1 Corinthians 7:3-5 talks about not abstaining from sex in marriage, "But because of immoralities, each man is to have his own wife, and each woman is to have her own husband. The husband is to fulfill his duty to his wife, and likewise also the wife to her husband. The wife does not have authority over her own body, but the husband does, and likewise also the husband does not have authority over his own body, but the wife does. Stop depriving one another, except by agreement for a time, so that you may devote yourselves to prayer, and come together again so that Satan will not tempt you because of your lack of self-control."
4. So, mutual consent is the "rule" for sexual relations in marriage.
5.The Bible says that “Marriage should be honored by all, and the marriage bed kept pure, for God will judge the adulterer and all the sexually immoral" (Hebrews 13:4).
6.The practice of “swapping” or “bringing in an extra” is blatant adultery (Galatians 5:19; Ephesians 5:3; Colossians 3:5; 1 Thessalonians 4:3). Adultery is sin even if your spouse allows, approves, or even participates in it. Pornography appeals to the “lust of the flesh and the lust of the eyes” (1 John 2:16) and is therefore condemned by God as well.

given the fact that jesus was a jewish teacher living in the first thirty years of this era, there's no doubt that sex inside marrage was what he approved of.
there weren't any preachings in particular on sex that i can recall, but he did say to only have sex with another if you had first divorced your wife. he was a jewish rabbi. what did you expect?
