New Living Translation (NLT)

5 Do not deprive each other of sexual relations, unless you both agree to refrain from sexual intimacy for a limited time so you can give yourselves more completely to prayer. Afterward, you should come together again so that Satan won’t be able to tempt you because of your lack of self-control.

Can theists here explain the prohibition of sex while praying? I do some of my best praying while having sex.

[limited time] I see this as coming up for a breather!

You have a smoke! We have a prayer!Cool Shades
