Marital fidelity
Children are entitled to birth within the bonds of matrimony and to be reared by a father and mother who honor marital vows with complete fidelity.
The powers of procreation are sacred. God has commanded that the sacred power and privilege of sexual relations be exercised only between a man and woman who are legally married. This is the law of chastity.
Keeping the law of chastity brings happiness, peace, and self-respect. It also deepens married love and protects families. Breaking this law is serious. But those who have broken it can gain forgiveness and peace through repentance and obedience.
God wants the best for you and for all of His children. Following God’s plan of reserving intimacy for marriage will help you and your family be happy.
