This is how God intends it to be, for it to be this spiritual connection.

However, it's different than what the OP is saying - receiving a spirit.
Mmm no I'm pretty sure that the core of the belief is exactly what she is saying. It's called "soul ties" and it happens whether there is an emotional connection, or not.

I'm not saying it's true, just that I've heard of it before.

I think grandma needs to read a book on reproductive biology.

Do Southern Baptists ever talk about sex?? I'm not surprised you haven't heard.

It is somewhere in the New Testament. It may not be written exactly that way, but the context implies it.

Her grandmother said: the woman takes every aspect of a man when he enters her. How does have anything to do with soul ties?

Kind of, sort of. I think they slip around and have sex more than they talk about it. Do you know what book? chapter? I would be curious to look it up. Maybe Ill bring it up at service and hear what the preacher has to say about it. Would make a good topic.

When you sleep with a man you take on their spirits!

Is spirits the same as syphilis?

Was this one of those old-timey euphemisms?

Truthfully, I have to go back and look through, brush up on my Scriptures. I'm not anywhere near to be a Bible scholar, but I'm pretty sure that I read something in that context and also heard it discussed in Bible studies back when I used to attend.

Well, I highly doubt it's every aspect.

1 Corinthians 6:16, "What? know ye not that he which is joined to an harlot is one body? for two, saith he, shall be one flesh."
