When most Christians hear the word “sensuality,” they think of illicit sexual activity, but this is, at best, a limited definition of the term. It can actually be applied to any experience that comes from and is connected to the five senses, “sense” being the root of the word.
Using this better meaning and sensuality becomes a morally neutral thing for the obvious reason that our Creator built it into us before the Fall. It is a part of the design God Himself called “very good” when he made human beings in His image.
We were intended to know feelings by a Being who, it can be assumed from Scripture, also feels. Passion is part and parcel of the biblical narrative.
There are no “Mr. Spocks” in the Bible, only emotive people relating to an emotive God.
The Lord your God is with you… He will take great delight in you; in his love he will no longer rebuke you, but will rejoice over you with singing. Zephaniah 3:17
