counselors, is in REVOLT against centuries of IGNORANCE about sex
--against the puritanical repression. Today they are calling sex
GOOD--whether before or in or out of marriage. Today the physical
and sensual KNOWLEDGE may be purchased in any bookstore, and even
at the magazine stands. But they are actually misleading,
incorrect and harmful, because they contain only the physical HALF
of sex knowledge--and much of that false and misleading. The real
MEANING and revealed right PURPOSES of the Creator are missing
altogether.
This book will bring you the WHOLE TRUTH--the spiritual
meaning, the divinely ordained purposes and right uses, and the
physical knowledge as well. It will open your eyes to read what
the Bible PROPHECIES say about this present condition!
How did this book come to be written, at last? Knowledge
of existing conditions made it imperative, several years ago, that
Ambassador College institute a course of instruction in Principles
of Living. It includes instruction, not only in family relations
and child rearing, but the vitally needed knowledge about sex and
marriage, BASED ON GOD'S WORD!
This college was founded to teach students not merely to
to earn a living--but HOW TO LIVE! The college motto is:
"Recapture True Values." Students could not know how to live in
happiness--could not know the TRUE VALUES--without proper
instruction in the facts of sex and marriage approached from God's
revelation.
We searched for a suitable textbook for this course. But
of all the books on sex and marriage, there was not one that we
could endorse or place in the hands of our students.
Faculty members, with our college physician, Dr. Ralph E.
Merrill, researched this whole area of education. In the absence
of any book suitable for a textbook, the only solution was to
produce an adequate textbook of our own. This production was
begun, as a combined collaboration between Dr. Merrill, an M.D. of
high standing and wide experience, certain faculty members, and the
Graduate School of Theology. Until this work could be produced,
the subject would have to be a lecture course, or seminar class.
Ambassador College recognizes that the Biblical
revelation is the FOUNDATION of ALL knowledge--and that it provides
the proper approach to the acquisition of humanly discoverable
knowledge. Nearly all books had been written by doctors,
psychoanalysts, or so-called "marriage counselors." Every book we
examined had been written from the purely physical and sensual
approach.
But it was GOD who designed and created humans as male
and female. GOD is the architect of SEX. GOD ordained the
marriage institution. GOD instructed our first parents in the
right uses of sex. GOD protects the marriage union with two of
the Ten Commandments. The Commandments form a SPIRITUAL law
(Romans 7:14), even though they involve physical actions. SEX is
involved in the SIN question--for TWO of the capital sins, imposing
