Abstract
English
This article deals with sexuality in the New Testament. In a first movement the line
of thought is pursued in which sex in the New Testament is presented as something
legitimate and enjoyable. Celibacy also comes into focus. In a next movement forbidden
practices are highlighted: extra-marital sex, divorce and homosexuality.
Although the emphasis falls on sexuality in the New Testament, guidelines for sexual
conduct today are proposed too.
