1. Creation Is Not the Enemy
From the beginning, God called His creation “good.” That includes the body, sexuality, and the human capacity for pleasure (Genesis 1:31). The body was not created for shame but for glory.
When sin entered the world, Adam and Eve’s first reaction was to hide (Genesis 3:7–10). Their physical nature didn’t change—their perception did. They went from seeing their bodies as part of God’s goodness to viewing them as a problem to conceal.
Many believers still live under that same distortion, confusing corruption with creation. Yet scripture says, “To the pure, all things are pure.” (Titus 1:15). Pleasure, properly ordered, is not ungodly—it’s sacred.
2. Shame as a Barrier to Divine Experience
Shame doesn’t just taint sexuality; it dulls spirituality. When we believe pleasure is dangerous, we instinctively resist moments when God’s presence feels powerful or overwhelming.
But pleasure is one of God’s original languages. It’s how He teaches us to receive delight without guilt.
“Delight yourself in the Lord, and He will give you the desires of your heart.” (Psalm 37:4).
Delight is not the opposite of holiness; it’s the path into it. When we experience joy without shame, we reflect the image of a God who delights in His creation.
3. The Analogy of the Orgasm: Heaven’s Whisper in the Body
Scripture speaks through analogy—using the natural to reveal the spiritual. Jesus spoke of vines, seeds, light, and marriage to explain the unseen.
Likewise, the orgasm is creation’s analogy for union and surrender. It’s the culmination of trust, the full release of guardedness, the embodiment of “two becoming one” (Genesis 2:24).
That physical oneness hints at a deeper truth: the ecstasy of spiritual union with God. When Jesus spoke of “living water” (John 7:38), He described an inner flow—pleasure, peace, vitality. The Holy Spirit doesn’t numb the senses; He awakens them.
4. Pleasure as Revelation
Pleasure was never meant to compete with holiness—it was meant to reveal it. Every taste of beauty, music, or intimacy is a whisper of heaven’s joy.
Even Jesus lived fully in His body—He ate, laughed, wept, and celebrated. His first miracle was turning water into wine at a wedding feast, reclaiming pleasure for sacred purpose (John 2:1–11).
To reject all pleasure as “worldly” is to reject part of God’s reflection in us. The issue is not pleasure itself but pleasure apart from love.
5. The Spiritual Orgasm: The Soul’s Ecstasy
Those rare moments when worship or prayer overwhelms you—when joy or peace floods your being—are not emotional accidents. They are the soul’s orgasm: moments of divine ecstasy, when heaven touches earth inside you.
Mystics through the ages—Teresa of Ávila, John of the Cross, even Paul in 2 Corinthians 12—spoke of these experiences as love so intense it transcended the senses.
Jesus promised, “I have told you this so that my joy may be in you and that your joy may be complete.” (John 15:11).
That joy isn’t theoretical—it’s experiential.
6. Experience Beyond Argument
Faith is logical and historical, but reason alone cannot awaken a soul. A person cannot be argued into tasting honey; they must taste it themselves.
When Christians live without joy, the world sees words without wonder. Arguments cannot replace demonstration—our peace and passion are what make faith believable (Romans 14:17).
A heart that has encountered God radiates an inner pleasure that logic alone can’t explain.
7. Cycles of Union and Rest
Neither marriage nor faith lives in perpetual climax. Healthy relationships flow between peace and passion, service and rest.
Daily time with God—through prayer, gratitude, and stillness—is the foreplay of divine intimacy.
Without it, spiritual numbness sets in. Jesus often withdrew to quiet places to pray (Mark 1:35). Those hidden moments sustained His public ministry.
We should not expect constant ecstasy, but we can expect steady joy—and periodic peaks of divine pleasure.
8. Heaven: The Fullness of Unbroken Pleasure
Psalm 16:11 declares, “In your presence is fullness of joy; at your right hand are pleasures forevermore.”
Heaven is not sterile obedience but unbroken union—complete pleasure purified of shame. The physical and spiritual will once again align perfectly.
All earthly pleasures—music, food, friendship, sex—are fragments of that greater whole. The orgasm is not dirty; it’s prophetic. It foreshadows the eternal delight of a soul fully one with God.
9. Reclaiming the Sacred Vocabulary of the Body
When the Church avoids words like pleasure, desire, orgasm, or ecstasy, we leave them in the hands of a culture that distorts them.
Redemption means reclaiming language that was originally God’s.
He made desire before sin. He made the body before shame. He made union before rebellion.
Holiness is not suppression—it’s restoration.
Romans 12:1 calls us to “offer your bodies as living sacrifices, holy and pleasing to God.”
The same senses that once sought sin can now savor divine love.
10. The Invitation
To live spiritually awake is to live erotically alive in the truest sense—receptive, open, and attuned to God’s affection.
Make time for silence. Feed your mind with truth and your heart with presence. When moments of spiritual ecstasy come, receive them with humility and awe.
They are not emotional flukes; they are glimpses of heaven’s pleasure.
You were not created to merely survive faith—you were created to enjoy it.
