Jesus was asked a question about marriage one time. He responded that some people were born eunuchs, some maded eunuchs by men, and some have chosen to become eunuchs for the gospel sake. The apostle Paul was such a man who chose to make himself a euncuh for the gospel sake. So, it is understanding Jesus purpose for being here on the earth. He did not come to enjoy sexual pleasure, but He sacrificed His own personal desire that God would be glorified and that sinners would be saved. He went on to say in that same passage about marriage, not everyone can except this saying, but let him that has ears to hear let him hear. You have to remember that Jesus had flesh and blood just like we did, but yet His desire for passion was in submission to his spirit. Likewise, it is God's desire that we also learn to bring our sexual passions into submission of our spirits.

If you really want this question answered, read the Bible. When you ask questions like this of people, you are running the risk of getting answers filtered through their morality.
Yes, we are sexual beings. We are also devious and self-serving. That doesn't mean we have to follow our nature.
The reason God forbade sexual immorality is because it gets in the way of your spirituality. Also, if it runs unchecked, it can have consequences right here on Earth.
As men especially, we will do a lot of stupid, immoral things to obtain sex from a woman. If we're not careful, we will worship either her or the act.
As Paul said, if you can abstain, it is best to remain single. If you can not, then it is better to marry. But running around having promiscuous sex just leads to problems.

According to Peter, Yes, we should, and should only marry if we cant "contain" our lust. Other than that, God ordained marriage, and the marriage bed, to be sacred between husband and wife, kind of like legal sin, so to speak.
And Yes, Christ died a Virgin. He was free from sin, hence no lust, so no reason to either marry nor have sex.

We r all sinners. We can not b like Jesus.That`s why He had 2 b crucified. Virginity and sufferig r gud. But we r human. Paul said " I am a eunuch (virgin) for Christ."

Yes,however,the Bible tells us at 2Cor.4:4 that "the whole world is lying in the power of the wicked one."
It is Satan's influence in the media,advertising,etc that has just about done away with morality and decency.

well everything is fine if it is done with ur spouse. as God had made everything in pairs, so he gave Adam-pbuh a companion as he was lonely. but extra/pre marital affairs is something no God or religion would approve of.
as far as being good as jesus-pbuh is concerned. that is why he was a prophet and we are ordinary humans. as we cannot be like him. we have our flaws but jesus-pbuh was chosen by God.
and before saying, stating or judging about a person like Jesus-pbuh, think twice as u will have to answer God tomorrow. it is not good always to drag a person like a prophet into our petty pin pointing games. its a sin that is unforgivable.
we may have a reason to doubt, i agree, but it always shouldnt involve or beat around prophets who were sent down for us.

i think god created our sexual impulses because he intended us to procreate... however the misconception here is that since we are sexual beings we can just give in to our desire and have sex as much as we want... that's a real mistake since from the beginning the lord created only ONE woman and ONE man so u see like love birds human beings are supposed to have only ONE sexual partner all throughout their life... ideal and romantic though a little boring hehehe

No one has ever been born of a virgin & no one would ever be.
Sex is necessary for procreation & union between man & woman. Abuse of it should be discouraged.

God created sex and gave us our sex drives and is beautiful if carried out with your spouse.
Even guys deep down know that sex is 10 times better in a loving relationship. One night stands, like so many guys seek, cannot be nearly as fulfilling.
