I am\u00a0not married yet, but I am going to\u00a0marry soon. <\/em>My coworkers are married and they are talking a lot about their sexual relations with their wives and the times of abstinence.<\/em> My question is this: From the perspective of the Bible, when a man should abstain from sex\u00a0with his wife?<\/i> My colleagues say that if they come to their wives during those 3-5 days of the menstrual cycle they become unclean.<\/i><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

\"AboutPhysical relationship is an intimate\u00a0one<\/h2>\n

Therefore, it is not good for a married man or woman\u00a0to talk about these things with others,\u00a0only when it\u2019s strictly necessary to solve certain problems.<\/p>\n

Sexual relations are prohibited during the wife\u2019s menstrual cycle<\/h2>\n

It is written about this thing\u00a0in the Scripture:<\/p>\n

Also you shall not approach a woman to uncover her nakedness during her menstrual impurity.<\/span> (Leviticus 18:19)(NASB)<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

God rebuked people for their transgressions\u00a0through the prophet Ezekiel and said this:<\/p>\n

In you they have uncovered their fathers\u2019 nakedness; in you they have humbled her who was unclean in her menstrual impurity.<\/span> (Ezekiel 22:10)(NASB)<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

There are other circumstances and situations in the life of a married couple when they can not\u00a0have sex.As the sexual relationship is a manifestation of the love of those two, so\u00a0abstinence from sexual relations with the spouse who can not meet this marital debt for a period of time is (maybe even a greater)\u00a0manifestation\u00a0of love.<\/p>\n
