No more vivid description of true romance can be found in Scripture than in the Song of Songs. Song of Songs is a God-inspired love song. This lesson is designed to help adults learn to express romantic love genuinely and within biblical guidelines. One day as I prepared my notes I realized that almost everything I was going to speak on applied not only to married couples but also to unmarried couples who were serious in their relationship. Only the area of sexuality has different biblical boundaries.
Romantic love is a broader concept than sexual attraction.
While romantic love is not limited to marriage, certain aspects and expressions are limited to a marriage relationship between a man and a woman. Some people resist the idea of boundaries. They are opposed to any restrictions or limitations. Yet the biblical boundaries put on romantic love are not punishment but are for our benefit and protection.
