Birth Control and Mortal Sin

[Celeste88]

Unfortunately, I don’t think Scripture covers this specific issue, so I shall attempt to marshal several verses to illustrate my point.

Genesis 1:28. Be fruitful and multiply… God wants us to use sex to multiply, thus having sex with birth control is not permissible.
Paul says in 1Cor7:5 that we may abstain for a time for fasting and prayer, but he says it is by mutual consent.
This would probably be a very awkward situation to apply the method Jesus prescribes in Matt 18:15.

I really think that this boils down to the sinfulness of birth control outweighing the marital rights.

Hmmm…it also states in Genesis that a man will earn a living by the “sweat of his brow” I don’t think too many CEO’s are doing that! LOL

Well, the CEO usually has to work hard to get to the top…unless s/he was born into the company
