The Bible is, without a doubt, the most sacred book in a Christian’s life, and we do not expect to see or read about anything that appears filthy in other books. This may also be difficult to achieve because the Holy Book contains many stories.
One of the strangest things recorded in the Bible is found in Genesis chapter 38, verses 6–10. Let us read it together.” “And Judah took Tamar as a wife for Er, his firstborn son.
And Er, Judah’s firstborn, was wicked in the eyes of the LORD, and he was killed by the LORD.
And Judah told Onan, “Go into thy brother’s wife, marry her, and bear seed to thy brother.”
And Onan knew that the seed should not be his, so when he went in to see his brother’s wife, he spilled it on the ground, lest he gives seed to his brother.
And because what he did displease the LORD, he slew him as well.” Genesis 38:6–10.
This man named Onan was given the wife of his deceased brother in order for him to bear children for his brother (the first son he would have with the woman would be named after the deceased brother); knowing this, he decided to spill or pour his sperm on the ground while having intercourse with his brother’s wife, causing God to be displeased and killing him as well.
Why would God punish this man for having his own way with his wife? The answer appears to be that he is killing the children that the woman would have given birth to; this also applies to abortion, masturbation, and using contraception to avoid pregnancy among Christians today.
This is a warning to all of us to avoid such abominations because we will never know what God will do to us in the end.
