About Featured Book: Sex Was God’s Idea: An Honest Look At Biblical Sexuality and The Rightful Role of Women by Dean Robertson
Heretic: a person who differs in opinion from established religious dogma.
Well, this is clearly a convincing look at a subject that, “differs in opinion from established religious dogma”.
Lust, marriage, sex, prostitution, concubines, a wondering eye, sin, fornication, church history, and other, previously, “lustful” taboo topics are bravely and carefully exposed in the light of Bible passages.
This timely work is a scriptural look at long held Christian doctrine that makes good sense. It will stretch your mind and may well bring peace to other wise troubled and tormented souls. It is backed point by point by considerable scriptures without stretching it and it may well leave you saying: “I have always suspected that”.
The author lays out clear repeated biblical evidence after clear repeated biblical evidence that the Christian world has rarely had the courage to look at and still not “throw the baby out with the bath water”, on this topic.
Dive into this well presented book and you may well be the recipient of the author’s desire to “set men and women free from guilt and bondage” concerning sex and marriage.
