Sex and the Marriage Covenant: A Basis for Morality - John F. Kippley - Paperback

In this book Sex & the Marriage Covenant, John Kippley performs a real service by showing the biblical foundation for the traditional Christian teaching on sexual morality in the profoundly important notion of covenant. The thesis of this book is that God intends that sexual intercourse should be at least implicitly a renewal of the marriage covenant. From this it follows that the marriage covenant provides the criterion to evaluate the morality of every sexual act. The author convincingly demonstrates that the contemporary problem is not simply incomprehension on the wrongfulness of unnatural birth control, the root problem now is the very meaning of human sexuality in a Christian context. Attentive & faithful to sound doctrine, written in clear American English, John Kippley is to be thanked & praised by the many teachers, preachers, parents & pastors who can benefit greatly from this fine defense of Christian teaching.Kippley, John F. is the author of 'Sex and the Marriage Covenant: A Basis for Morality - John F. Kippley - Paperback' with ISBN 9780960103690 and ISBN 0960103694.
