RELATIONSHIP STANDARDS OF THE WORLD ARE CONFUSED
Are your relationship choices affecting your relationship with God?
“Not everyone who calls out to me, ‘Lord! Lord!’ will enter the Kingdom of Heaven. ONLY THOSE WHO ACTUALLY DO THE WILL OF MY FATHER IN HEAVEN will enter. On judgment day many will say to me, ‘Lord! Lord! We prophesied in your name and cast out demons in your name and performed many miracles in your name.’ But I will reply, ‘I never knew you. Get away from me, you who break GOD’S LAWS.’ — Matthew 7:21-23 NLT
Men and women think about this…
A woman nowadays does not mind a man who has slept with a lot of women, and then abandons them, to have an exclusive relationship with them. Then that woman wonders why their relationship invariably more often than not does not work out in the end.
However, that same woman would not consider a committed relationship with a man who refuses to abandon his God given responsibilities or obligations for, and to. The women he has slept with, or has children with, or is married to.
Jesus replied, “Moses permitted divorce only as a concession to your hard hearts, but it was not what God had originally intended. And I tell you this, whoever divorces his wife and marries someone else commits adultery—unless his wife has been unfaithful.” — Matthew 19:8-9 NLT
Times we are living in are so crazy, that women now demand that men leave, or abandon a woman or women they are obligated to or have responsibilities for.
They give men ultimatums, wanting to be the only woman in his life, they cause not just the men to sin, but also themselves
Sooner or later she simply becomes another name to another man’s list of sexual exploits.
“For example, a man who divorces his wife and marries someone else commits adultery. And anyone who marries a woman divorced from her husband commits adultery.” — Luke 16:18 NLT
Jesus here was speaking about the practice of divorcing, abandoning, putting away one woman to be with another.
A man nowadays prefers to have sexual relationships with a woman, without any responsibility or obligations. Married men think that they are permitted by God to divorce one woman so that they can marry another, then they wonder why they are unable to maintain a stable relationship with even one woman.
Both of these male and female mindsets are common place within today’s society around the world and supported by mainstream Media and laws.
Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap. — Galatians 6:7 KJV
Sadly the majority do not realise that these types of thinking, beliefs, behaviours, actions and lifestyles are completely contrary to the word of God, the law of God and the will of God.
Women are designed to be with one man for life. The act of sex for a virgin female is a blood covenant. The hymen is broken blood is shed and she legally before God belongs to that man. That man legally before God is now responsible and obligated for the care of that female.
The only way that covenant is broken is by the man dying or the shed blood of Jesus Christ through whom we have forgiveness of sins.
Whosoever committeth sin transgresseth also the law: for sin is the transgression of the law. And ye know that he ( Jesus Christ / YAHushua The MessiYAH ) was manifested to take away our sins; and in him is no sin. — 1 John 3:4-5 KJV
The majority of Christians do not realise that before God they enter into legally binding contracts or agreements of relationships when they have sexual relations.
Women do not realise that even after they have lost their virginity they are making binding contractual agreements with men that they sleep with.
Men do not realise that they have entered into a legally binding agreement with the women they have had sex with.
Jesus saith unto her, GO, CALL THY HUSBAND, AND COME HITHER. The woman answered and said, I have no husband. Jesus said unto her, Thou hast well said, I HAVE NO HUSBAND: For thou hast had five husbands; and he whom thou now hast is not thy husband: in that saidst thou truly. — John 4:16-18 KJV
Read that scripture again understanding that Jesus was God manifest in the flesh.
He did not tell the woman, you had five boyfriend’s, he did not tell the woman you have had five relationships, he did not even say that you have had five partners, he said you have had five HUSBANDS
Look again closely, she states that even though she has had five husbands she has no husband, because, not one of those men took up the responsibility or the obligation they had made to her. But before YAH God they were still liable
What? know ye not that he which is joined to an harlot is one body? for two, saith he, shall be one flesh. — 1 Corinthians 6:16 KJV
God does not see things the way that we see them, he sees things from the point of the Father of all creation that he is.
The only way out for the man or the woman is if the woman has sex with another man. which is adultery or one of them dies. There are however stipulations in the law for abuse and abandonment.
But to the rest speak I, not the Lord: If any brother hath a wife that believeth not, and she BE PLEASED TO DWELL with him, let him not put her away. And the woman which hath an husband that believeth not, and if he BE PLEASED TO DWELL with her, let her not leave him. — 1 Corinthians 7:12-13 KJV
A Christian believing woman or man for that matter is not obligated to stay within an abusive relationship where life and safety is at risk, that spouse is obviously NOT pleased to dwell with them.
What? know ye not that he which is joined to an harlot is one body? for two, saith he, shall be one flesh. — 1 Corinthians 6:16 KJV
Even if the man becomes one flesh with another woman it does not absolve him of his obligations and responsibilities to any previous women. That’s why Jesus called the woman at the wells previous sexual partners HUSBANDS
Lets look at the married woman who was caught having sex with a man who was not her husband aka Adultery
And the scribes and Pharisees brought unto him a woman taken in adultery; and when they had set her in the midst, — John 8:3 KJV
One of the main things that is missed from that event is that according to the law of God both the man and the woman were meant to be stoned to death, however, they only bought the woman to Jesus.
Jesus stooped and wrote on the ground twice and both times I personally believe he wrote
WHERE IS THE MAN
Then ultimately he told the woman who was thinking she was surely about to die…
I DO NOT CONDEMN YOU, GO YOUR WAY AND SIN NO MORE
Likewise he did not condemn the woman at the well, he wanted to give her the living water that springs up to eternal life, salvation.
Jesus saith unto her, Go, call thy husband, and come hither. — John 4:16 KJV
He wanted to bless her right there and then but she had no covering she was living a wanton lifestyle that we would currently call dating.
She realized that he was a prophet and being a prophet he could have easily called for her to receive judgement in accordance with the law.
Instead she went and bore witness to the incredible mercy that he had showed her and brought many to him that believed.
This article is written with the same intention as Jesus had to the woman at the well, to the five husbands, to the woman who was caught in the act of adultery and to the man who was with her but not brought to judgement.
But now God has shown us a way to be made right with him, without keeping the requirements of the law, as was promised in the writings of Moses and the prophets long ago. We are made right with God by placing our faith in Jesus Christ. And this is true for everyone who believes, no matter who we are. For everyone has sinned; we all fall short of God’s glorious standard. Yet God, with undeserved kindness, declares that we are righteous. He did this through Christ Jesus when he freed us from the penalty for our sins. For God presented Jesus as the sacrifice for sin. People are made right with God when they believe that Jesus sacrificed his life, shedding his blood. This sacrifice shows that God was being fair when he held back and did not punish those who sinned in times past, for he was looking ahead and including them in what he would do in this present time. God did this to demonstrate his righteousness, for he himself is fair and just, and he declares sinners to be right in his sight when they believe in Jesus. — Romans 3:21-26 NLT
Because of the grace of the love of God through the shed blood of Christ The MessiYAH Jesus we are declared righteous and forgiven of all our past sins.
Well then, should we keep on sinning so that God can show us more and more of his wonderful grace? OF COURSE NOT! Since we have died to sin, how can we continue to live in it? — Romans 6:1-2 NLT
Just because we are not being judged now or condemned now because you have received Grace and forgiveness doesn’t mean you should carry on in the same lifestyle you were living before you read this article or came to Jesus and were baptized for the remission of your sins
This is not written to condemn, but to correct, to guide and advise and to say to all the men and women making bad relationship choices who read this…
JESUS IS NOT CONDEMNING YOU.
BUT…..
YOU MUST….
GO YOUR WAY AND SIN NO MORE
Shalom love and blessings
