Bible Sets Guides for Morality
Morality places restrictions on premarital activity, Paul Steeves, campus adviser to Inter-Varsity Christian Fellowship, told members Tuesday at a meeting in the Kansas Union.
His own thesis of morality, Steeves said, is based on the teachings of the Bible. "There is a prescribed morality in the Bible," he said. "If the Bible is accepted there are several restrictions placed on sexual activity."
STEEVES SAID the Bible puts sex and morality in a positive and constructive light.
In biblical terms, said Steeves, pre-marital sexual intercourse does not exist—the act of sexual union creates a marital union.
He said that the object of intercourse is to know a partner. It becomes a union of the minds and souls of the partners.
HE EMPHASIZED the emotional totality of the action. A
man or woman will be affected for life by the first act of intercourse. There are always, he said, psychological consequences.
