Christianity is famed for placing a doctrinal prohibition on sex before marriage. This means Christian couples that haven’t exchanged vows cannot get sexually intimate. So what then can Christians do to get intimate with one another? It’s really simple when you think hard about how, being secular, you get intimate with a woman before you actually sleep together. Christian Intimacy is possible, you just need to know how to achieve it.

Physical intimacy can be achieved without a couple having to side-line their religious principles. There is nowhere in the Bible that it says physical contact with a woman can a send a couple straight to the pits of Hell. Christians that aren’t married as yet can touch each other and arouse each others feeling in a non-sinful way. Holding hands has the effect of bringing flesh together. The warmth generated by holding hands elevates feelings beyond levels unimaginable if done with the right emotion.

Exchange sweet and gentle kisses with one another. Kiss each other on the lips or even on the neck to gravitate the feeling of closeness between you. There is nothing sinful about kissing, even the sinful prostitute Mary kissed the feet of Jesus. You can even do the same if you feel you can handle the mental anguish that can plague you later on. Kissing is about exchanging warm breath and body heat, this is a good way of being intimate.

You’ll have a good idea if your man likes electronics. Usually there will be magazines, or he will talk about them a lot. Or you can just look into his den and see if there is a wall of metal and plastic. Flashing lights may also give a hint. The type of electronics is a different matter though.

Native Americans have a culture rich in custom and tradition and their weddings are no different. Adding a few of the Native American wedding traditions, which are very beautiful, may add an element of spirituality to your ceremony.

For the poorest people, the bands might have been woven from hemp, but later on, they might be sewn from leather or carved from bone or ivory.
