Is It Good To Not Touch A Woman? (1 Corinthians 7:1-17) Series

Contributed by Garrett Tyson on Feb 14, 2022

For most people, the answer is this: you should have a spouse, you should "have" your spouse, and your spouse should "have" you.

Let's start today, by simply reading 1 Corinthians 7:1: (1) Now, concerning the things which you wrote, "[it is] good for a man, a woman/wife not to touch." [a woman/wife is focused in Greek]. This sentence is almost certainly a Corinthian slogan that Paul is quoting. Paul not ...read more
