What does the Bible say about sex?
The classic Christian view is that sex should be within marriage, and that marriage is the union of one man and one woman. In order to understand why, we need to explore what the purpose of sex is, according to the Bible.
You'd have to work hard to explain that God is not against sex. In fact, he considers it something good. It was, after all, his idea. God could have made us reproduce the way plants do, with floating spores and pollen. But he preferred human life to spring from the exultant, loving embrace of intercourse. So it only makes sense that the all-knowing God who invented sex should know how it can best be celebrated. God wouldn't sacrifice his own Son to redeem us, and then turn around to arbitrarily spoil our fun.
Sex has two purposes. The first is obviously procreation. However, it is important not to imply that procreation is the only purpose of sex. First, this is true because many marriages are childless. A few are childless through choice, but most are childless because of infertility. But that does not make them bad marriages! And on the flip side, there are many kinds of sexual union which can result in procreation, but which are deeply harmful and wrong (such as rape, adultery and incest). Objections to same-sex sexual relationships solely on the grounds that they can never be procreative therefore do not succeed. There must be more to sex than procreation.

And this is exactly what we find in the Bible. As well as giving the gift of sex to be the means of procreation, God also gives it as a gift which brings husband and wife together into a physical union (‘the two shall become one flesh’, Genesis 2:24). This physical intimacy expresses and strengthens the bringing together of their lives. So, according to the Bible, sex has two purposes: not just procreation, but also delight and intimacy.
A whole book (the Song of Solomon) celebrates the sensuality of erotic love. The Bible reflects exactly the attitude you'd expect from an inventor writing about his invention. God, better than anyone else, appreciates what his invention means. He understands how it works and knows exactly what it's good for. He tells us how to use it—and how not to.
