It's a pretty common thought. That God has picked out someone that's made for you two to become one. Now, that doesn't explicitly mean sex, but sex is designed to be pleasurable so the person meant for you has to have some compatibility? |
It's common but incorrect for the most part. It just wishful thinking that god made someone to be your other half. No where in the bible does it mention that we get a mate hand picked by god. You also have to consider that our souls are immortal so we might not meet anyone while alive.
God choosing for us defeats the whole point of giving us free will. We're supposed to choose our mate(s) and figure out on you own if you're compatible or not. It's no different than having to make any other choice in life.
Sex is a very important part of compatibility.
I'm not christian or religious. I just read the bible while trying to maintain a objective point of view.

Uh, I never said that first loves are who your destined with though. And your belief doesn't really seem like something a Christian would say. I mean, don't they say that they are God's chosen people and stuff? And that Sex is good in the context of marraige because it's for making babies?
Well I wouldn't know. My friend who's a Christian says that there is a woman for you in the world, because when God created you, he also created for you a partner. Or something like that. |
That's just a bit of romanticism.
