HOLINESS AND SEX FROM BIBLICAL PERSPECTIVE
Abstract
The experience of holiness is pivotal to the Christian faith. It is clearly taught on the pages of scripture. Since man is born with moral pollution and he soon grows to posses sin, within and without there is therefore need for him to be cleansed. Having understood this, the priests in the Old Testament cleansed the Temple using water after they had been sanctified with the blood of innocent animal. Christian teaching about sex has been contaminated and confused by negative and wholesome unscriptural concept. It is therefore not surprising that there is a great deal of bewilderment abroad especially among Christians, concerning the radical changes that are taking place in sexual attitudes, and in sexual behavior, in our contemporary world. This write-up, which will therefore bring home plainly the urgent need for a biblical reinterpretation of holiness and sex, might serve a useful purpose of making life meaningful at this present time.
