Why does it feel so good when I am intimate with my boyfriend if God says it is wrong?

It feels good when you are intimate with your boyfriend because as human beings we are all subject to our emotions, which tend to govern our actions.
Also, everything that feels good is not necessarily good for us. Eating fattening foods taste good, but eating that way can lead to all types of health problems.
I'm not particularly religious, but I believe that just because you subscribe to a certain religion does not mean you stop being human.
If you believe that God says sex outside of marriage is wrong, and if you want to live your life by that code, then you need to live your life that way, but don't expect temptations to go away.
You have to rise above temptation sometimes, and that is hard to do, but it's not impossible.
I personally feel that sex should take place inside the context of marriage because giving yourself to someone physically and intimately means so much to me that I could not imagine doing it with someone with whom I did not have a committed faithful relationship with, and for me that means marriage.

hi,
God says it's wrong when you cross the line :).
God says it's wrong because of natures laws which He created. If there are no rules, there will be chaos which leads to destruction. Those are rules, created for a good evolving state of our race. I doesn't mean it is wrong to be intimate with your boyfriend as long as you don't pop out 100 kids and have no food to feed them. We got to keep a balance in whatever we do if we want to live happy on this planet.
In a few words, that's what God meant. I think we should take the laws God created and adapt them to our modern life. Although the church does not agree with me, this is the course of life and cannot be stopped by anyone.
So my answer is: go for it as long as you are correctly informed and know exactly what you do.
Another problem would be if you think what you do is a sin. If you do, you're conscience will be screaming at you. If not, just take care and try to be responsable for your actions.
Have a nice day, Radu

I have asked myself that question, too, about many things like being with my husband...who is divorced, and according to the Bible, I shouldn't be with him. About drinking. It feels good to get drunk, but it's a sin. Etc. But I think the answer to your question lies in your question. The Devil's influence is what makes us think that something that is wrong is right. The Bible says that the right road is not the easy road. There is more where that came from.
But...God will forgive us. If we believe in Jesus Christ, we can be forgiven. We will be judged based on how we judge others. Remember that.

because the bible was written by bigoted madmen who lived 2000 years ago. the bible also tell us we should stone homosexuals, burn witches, and keep slaves. In short, the bible is an outdated moral guide document.
the fun part is calling christians out on this; for instance on slavery some will say 'well, that part is not to be taken literally' or 'that was in the OLD testament' (it's in both testaments btw) while they still disapprove of homosexuals. Next ask them how they know which parts are to be taken literally and which 'don't apply anymore' or something. The answers are as frightening as they are hilarious.

God doesn't say it's wrong. The leaders of the churches who want you to have the same views as them say it's wrong. It feels good because you love him. If you're gay, I'm guessing you know that it wasn't your choice to be gay. God made you that way. Do what your heart tells you is right, not what biased preachers say is right.

Just because one religion says it's wrong doesn't mean that it is. If YOU believe it is wrong, then it is for you, and you feel guilty.
With the exception of things like killing, rape and stealing, most other questions of right and wrong rest with the beliefs of the person.

Well, the sex act was meant to feel good. ONLY for a male and a female in a married state. Anything can be taken and warped ....God does say in the Bible that this act outside of marriage is "Obscene" and "unnatural".

SIN IS PLEASURE, no question about it. BUT what feels good will not feel so good in the eternal life in hell. This life will pass and heaven will offer more than a quick fix. I know I resit many things each day holding out for grand prize in the end!!!

"God" is a concept invented by human beings. Most of the current major religions were invented for control over the masses by males and their prejudices show up as "god's statements".

God bless and guide you to the right path.
In most of the cases Satanic activities / things are charming, well attracting and misleading. Take an honest view and ask your heart and mind (while you are alone and free) about all these issues.
Also would you like to have same types of things for your elders (parents) or for your kids in the future. These are tests points you have to check the results.
