THE PERFECT AND THE PERVERTED

•    God made everything “very good” - including male/female
•    perversions of sex common in modern culture
•    Bible goes against cultural current, while recalling beauty of original intent

WELCOME TO THE WEDDING

•    Solomon’s arrival for nuptials a big deal

HIGHLIGHTS OF THE HONEYMOON

•    extolling bride’s beauty: meaningful metaphors
•    her enthusiastic response to his appreciative praise

SEX IS SELFLESS

•    never supposed to be about what one person wants
•    our bodies don’t belong to ourselves, but to our spouse
•    love the other - not to get something in return

SEX IS PRIVATE

•    she is his garden “locked up”
•    intimate items not for public sharing or jokes

SEX IS GOOD

•    cheering on the newlyweds very right, fitting
•    better to talk about it openly in families
•    a very good gift within the right boundaries
•    intimacy nurtured over time by trust, selflessness
