Jesus' Vision for Sex and Desire

Reframing Christian Marriage in the New Testament
The New Testament reshapes the concept of marriage highlighting male and female relations framed in Genesis. Jesus, in Matthew 19, revisits the original vision of marriage emphasizing the unity of man and wife. The early believers embraced the counter-cultural idea of Christian marriage, focusing on responsibilities within the relationship. The instructions for wives to submit to husbands were actually addressing the husband's role and responsibilities. Christian marriage challenges societal norms by promoting monogamous relationships with mutual respect and restraint. 1 Corinthians 7 offers marriage advice emphasizing mutual authority over each other's bodies, addressing both husbands and wives equally.
