Eroticism-eros love is a kind of love that stems from physical love or sensual desire. It involves sexual desire, a sexual emotional affection. Know this that, Love on its on own has nothing to do with eroticism, but in the context of marriage, Eros is an emotional part of love that should be satisfied.
Many of them singles these days take Eros (Emotional Affections) for love, meanwhile they are not in any way related. True love does not stem from eros, but eros from true(agape) love, and that is only proper in the context of marriage.
However, unmarried people naturally have this kind of sexual desire which is natural, as long as you are human being. Eros is an emotional part of love designed by God for MARRIED couples and it is wrong for singles to satisfy such.
The devil on his own has infected the generation of man with this desire before marriage to wind away their concentration with life purpose. No wonder, we have lots of singles carelessly trending with the desire of Eros. This is not only common to singles,married people are also found of fulfilling this desire out of wedlock. However it is, Eros satisfied out of wedlock is not proper.
Also, it is the plan of devil to destroy the temple of God in man through sexual immorality (eros fulfilled out of wedlock). Devil knows that the best way to interrupt the relationship between man and the Holy Spirit(God) is to create the multiple portions of Eros (Sexual desire) in man, especially out of the context of marriage. 1Corinthians 3:16-17 says "Don't you know that you yourselves are God's temple and that God's Spirit lives in you? If anyone destroys God's temple, God will destroy him; for God's temple is sacred, and you are that temple." Again, in the same book, the command was given to "run" from sexual immorality, why? Because it is an enemy to our body not only our spirit and relationship with God. "Flee from sexual immorality. All other sins a man commits are outside his body, but he who sins sexually sins against his own body." 1corinthians 6vs18
Eros is not a kind of Emotion that should be satisfied out of wedlock, but be tamed. Man has been given the power through the Holy to control his Emotions, so, any man who can not control his Emotions, is a shattered man.
Man therefore can tame his 'sexual desire' out of wedlock through self discipline, the Holy Spirit and the word of God.
