Marriage is an institution that has been sacred for centuries. Today it has become more of a legally binding contract between two adults who have intentions of spending the rest of their lives together. The part that is legally binding allows the pair to enjoy some financial benefits to help them raise their children but the spiritual binding of the pair is also important.

The Bible tells us that sex was given to man as a gift from God that should be enjoyed between a man and woman after they have been joined together by God and the laws of the state. However, throughout time there have been men and women who wanted to enjoy these pleasures outside of marriage.

Men and women have sought the company of escorts or had physical relationships outside of marriage. Then as the sexual revolution reached its pinnacle in the 1960’s societal norms turned away from the idea of a monogamous relationship between two people and expanded to include all types of sexual relationships both before and after marriage.

Since that decline in social morals society has also recorded a record number of divorces, increase in number of brothels and adult stores catering to every type of sexual whim there might be. After almost 50 years of sexual promiscuity society is once again examining the benefits of practicing abstinence before marriage.
