Reasons Given for Female Circumcision
In my seminars, I ask the question, “Is there any demon present, any angel, any man, or any woman who can show me even one Verse from the Bible or the Koran that states, commands, recommends or even remotely suggests, implies, hints or infers that a female be circumcised?” The place is always totally silent. Then I present Bible verses like John 10:10 “The devil comes to steal, kill and destroy, but I, (Jesus) came that you might have life and that you may have it more abundantly.” And, John 15:11 "These things I have spoken to you, that My joy may be in you, and that your joy may be made full.” (NAS) In this case, the devil’s seeks to steal enjoyment and pleasure away from the woman. He succeeds in this matter of FGM. Yet God always has intended for both the man and the woman to experience sexual pleasure within marriage.
God created sex, the sex organs for both the man and the woman, and He gave sex and pleasure in sex to both the man and the woman as a precious gift.
1 Cor 7:1 “Now concerning the things about which you wrote, it is good for a man not to touch a woman. 2 But because of immoralities, let each man have his own wife, and let each woman have her own husband. 3 Let the husband fulfill his duty to his wife, and likewise also the wife to her husband. 4 The wife does not have authority over her own body, but the husband does; and likewise also the husband does not have authority over his own body, but the wife does. 5 Stop depriving one another, except by agreement for a time that you may devote yourselves to prayer, and come together again lest Satan tempt you because of your lack of self-control.” (NAS) These verses are a clear indication that God expects the woman to have pleasure.
Gen 2:22 “And Yahweh, the LORD God fashioned into a woman the rib (or, side), which He had taken from the man, and brought her to the man. 23 And the man said, ‘This is now bone of my bones, and flesh of my flesh; she shall be called “woman”, because she was taken out of Man.’ 24 For this cause a man shall leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave to his wife; and they shall become one flesh. 25 And the man and his wife were both naked and were not ashamed.” (NAS) And, 1 Tim 6:17 “Charge them - - that they be not high-minded, nor have their hope set on the uncertainty of riches, but on God, Who giveth us richly all things to enjoy.” (ASV) God created sex to be richly enjoyed by every husband and every wife.
