God’s teaching in Genesis 2:18 is that women are meant to be men’s helpers. And, intuitively obvious from the verse is that assertion that God’s purpose for creating women is to help men to not be lonely.

God tells us to have only one wife and to have marital relations with only her because of the feelings that He has designed into women and the possessiveness that they feel for those with whom they have intimate contact. And we should follow God’s instruction in this matter, as some things are to be avoided, because, when done, they cannot be fixed.

God designed the sex drive in men for a specific purpose and gave man a specific activity designed to satisfy that drive. Genesis 1:28 delineates God’s prime directive, saying: 28 Then God blessed them, and God said to them, “Be fruitful and multiply; fill the earth and subdue it; have dominion over the fish of the sea, over the birds of the air, and over every living thing that moves on the earth.”

The key to living the active, high risk, high reward investor lifestyle is getting past physical limitations to have faith in God’s Word and understanding, as God told Sarah, that there is nothing too hard for God.

Once God gives us His instructions, He says, “It’s up to you. You can either have faith in Me or not. If you demonstrate faith and follow My instructions, you will live well. If you fail to demonstrate faith and disobey My instructions, you will live poorly, and then you will die.”

The reason for God’s objective admonition that husbands and wives have an exclusive sexual relationship with one another is for the proper raising and protection of children. God gives us the commandment of marriage so that no child will be born to parents that are not related to one another, not committed to one another, and that have not formed a cooperative coalition to parent the child.

When a person can wisely assess their situation and find the providence of God their situation, they will be grateful to God, and gratitude leads to happiness. If you choose to grateful for that which you have rather than being angry about that which you do not have, you can be happy, regardless of the situation.

A man only feels committed to a woman and should only have sex with her after he has voluntarily committed himself to her in marriage. And a man will only commit to a girl when he is mature enough to decide that he is ready to settle down, and the girl is the one girl that he wants to be with for the rest of his life.
