The second one is on our sidebar. The other is also highly relevant. As another user said, do read the sidebar before posting basic questions like this.

Marriage is a picture of Christ and the church. That in and of itself makes it special. That is why sex is restricted to marriage alone

Here's a post that explains it in detail.

I’d say it’s because the containing of sex within the confines of monogamy brings us to a closer character to Christ. Hypergamy unleashed through hormonal birth control and abortion has given us some of the least happy yet most ‘empowered women’ in human history. Our Characters suffer as a result.

Though hypergamy seeks alpha seed (+beta need) and male sexual strategy seeks unlimited sexual access (+confirmed child rearing), we gain that advantage in a monogamous confine. IF (in a perfect scenario) two virgins got married, had sex and had children the lack of prior sexual partners, the responsibility of children and well as the strength of their pair bonding would facilitate the woman’s Alpha imprint of her man while she can also rest that her man is parenting her child. All while the man is getting all the sex he needs and commitment because he’s her alpha imprint...

We live in an imperfect world however.

It’s also a picture of Christ and the church, yada-yada-ya...

Oneitis is real, and you should avoid it because it puts you in a vulnerable weak frame.

If anything you need a girl who has onitis for you

Of course oneitis is a real phenomenon. Guys catch it all the time.

Soulmates however are about as real as the Hindu God of destruction! 😂

So if oneities is not real

Oneitis is real.

then why should marriage be considered a very special thing?

What a bizarre rhetoric.

Why is sex restricted through marriage then if there are many partners that can be my soulmate?

Short answer is scripture limits us to one partner.

You have a number of bad mental models that are evident in this post. Read the sidebar before posting again.

Massive assumption behind your question:

The reason for restricting sex in marriage, is because you found your soulmate. Why do you assume this?

If this were true remarriage would not be permissible. “Sorry, bad luck your soul mate died.

then why should marriage be considered a very special thing?

Marriage glorifies god.
