I think broad is the path to destruction, and there are many things God speaks that isnt followed. women shouldnt wear makeup, broidered hair, fancy jewels and jewelry, and should be modest in their apparel, but ahhh its ok, to break that rule, because it looks good on them? of course the carnal man wants women to dress revealing. What Im saying, is that if we broaden the rules they become our own destruction.....Jesus says be yay yay or nay nay, and Im saying yes contraceptives are against God's will for the human to use.

I attempted that whole 12 hours and we'll be too tired thing.
babies due in august lol.
On a more serious note....I think God can do as He wills. Rather we use birth control or not. I also think he expects us to use wisdom and not cause extreme harm to the body....a lot of birth control methods do that. In some cases so does pregnancy...I don't consider this a black and white cut and dry issue. It's a personal matter...and up to personal convinctions as God leads us..

It's interesting that most of your (mis)quoted Scripture verses address what women should or shouldn't do. How about accurately quoting what the Bible says to men?
You conclude that contraceptives are against God's will without a single verse to back up your position directly. You're welcome to your opinion, but at present, it seems that's all you have on this matter.

U
I find it interesting that we need explicit scripture and then if it is not there then it must be okay.
The scripture does not say anything explicit about pedophilia either.
Well, if sin is anything contrary to the will of God then one must consider that contraceptive is not within the will of God since God says children are a gift from Him.
Birth control is about control.
I will leave it at that.

This is the same logic that leads the Church of Christ to avoid the use of musical instruments in worship... if something isn't explicit in Scripture, we have to conclude that it's forbidden.
Here's the logical end of your position: if two people are married, and find themselves in a life situation incompatible with or unwise for having children, they must sin, either by denying each other, foolishly proceeding with having children, or using contraceptives.
That's simply ridiculous.
