It's much more natural and fulfilling to have an affair. How few movies and television shows lift up the wonderful deep and giving love that happens between a husband and wife. You can't go to the movie theatres, turn on television, open a magazine without realizing that our society has become obsessed with sex. A study released just this past week confirmed that sex is showing up more and more on our television programs. Walk through Blockbusters and look at the covers of the videos for rent.
Sex sells professional football, professional wrestling, cars, perfume and of course lingerie.
I know of no other gift that God has given us that has been perverted as much as the gift of romantic love. This very beautiful gift that God gave to us so that a husband and a wife may enjoy the oneness that God intends for the marriage relationship has been so abused. It's not fashionable to talk about, but our society pays a terrible price for our obsession with immediate sexual gratification. It's more than sexually-transmitted diseases. It has to do with relationships that never develop properly because they were based on self-gratification.
