       To change topics here a bit, but to remain in discussing faithfulness, God does want people to remain faithful in their marriages. It is really important that each partner in the marriage be providing the needs of the other person, and this includes intimate needs. Remember what Paul said in 1 Corinthians 7:5? He said, “Do not deprive one another, except perhaps by agreement for a limited time, that you may devote yourselves to prayer; but then come together again, so that Satan may not tempt you because of your lack of self-control” (1 Corinthians 7:5, ESV). This is one of the reasons sex is reserved for marriage. Once two people are married, they come together as one, as Paul said. We as humans are sexual beings. And that’s why Paul said to continually come together. If things are out of order sexually, it gives Satan opportunity to tempt one of the marriage partners into committing adultery. And, so, adultery can be a danger for any married person who does not live like God wants him or her to live.
