Intimacy Was Not Created For Sinners

God created it. He said, “It is not good for man to be alone.” “Be fruitful and multiply.”

The man’s seed and the woman’s seed will unite and become one flesh.

And then we sinned and Intimacy turned conditional, just as our Love turned conditional.

When we left Paradise, we left true Love and Intimacy behind.

And so we put the following conditions on our participation in intimacy:
“.... to get love in return.”
“....only if it feels good for me.”
“.... only to have children”
“.... because I can use it to manipulate my partner.”
“ ....so my partner will not leave me.”
“.... so my partner will treat me better.”

So we put the cart in front of the horse instead of behind it. The cart doesn’t get very far before the horse starts rebelling.

But God did have a plan. His original plan.

The Spirit of Christ unites with the spirit of a man
The Spirit of Christ unites with the spirit of a woman
The man now can be made complete and become the man our Lord created him to be
The woman now can be made complete and become the woman our Lord created her to be
They will be made perfect by our Lord and will compliment each other in every way
Selfishness and pride are overcome and the conditions disappear
True Love and true Intimacy will be their reward

And now the horse is in front of the cart and things are the way they were supposed to be.

This is good concerning man and woman, but the intimacy that was given up in the garden was that of God and man. Man lost his place to come in the presence of God, because he had disobeyed. He hid himself instead. Sin cannot come in the presence of God, and this is why we have to repent. True repentance and a complete turn will give you an intimacy with God, that you won't worry about intimacy with a man or woman.

Margery, Thank you for your comments. They were thought provoking and so I took them to our Lord. And my heart was troubled and so He gave me inspiration for Intimacy Was Not Created For Sinners Part 2.
