This means that it is okay to abstain, if you have a greater purpose in mind, which is pleasing God. If you decide to not abstain, but then treat your partner as an object of pleasure anyway, then it does more harm.

It is obvious that the phenomenon for which we now use the word birth control was not known in Biblical times. Couples who want to live as husband and wife and practise their sexuality in the way advised (prescribed?) by God, Jesus Christ, the Bible and Christianity can only base their decisions on Jesus' own answer when someone asked Him what was the most important commendment. Jesus' answers was: love your God with all your heart, your whole mind and all your intelligence ..........and love your neighbour as you love yourself. No doubt the word neighbour here includes your spouse and your (future) children. In short: people who desire to please their God, also in the way they deal with sexual questions, should base their behaviour on their love for their husband, their wife, their family.
