1Corinthian 6:9-10 be not deceived neither fornicators, nor idolatry nor adulterers, nor effeminate(homosexual), not abusers of themselves with mankind... Shall inherit the kingdom of God.
Verse 2 is my favorite because it lets us know that a man is to have his own wife, not nobody else's and a woman is to have her own husband, not the husband of another woman and never, ever are two folk of the same gender to call themselves married to each other!! That's simply an abomination.
Verse 28~There are no perfect marriages because there are no perfect people. Married people will experience tribulation in the flesh but they must stick to their vows of for better or for worse.
Blessed; I'm not sure how you come up with the idea that my spouse left me; but it isn't true. The points you bring up however are worth talking about. God absolutely has a plan for each of us to know and understand Him through Jesus and His Spirit. Most do not think in these terms, but are greedily hoping and looking for some kind of glory and happiness for self. And YES Many impostors in church.
To a disciple,stephen and others that have gone thru the pain of your spouse leaving you
It is because of that God again has a plan for each of us.
I met a great Christian lady and fell in love like nothing I had ever experienced before. My ex had a affair with a person from church! Guard your family at church
Do not let your guard down. Churches have many wolves in sheeps clothing!!
Josef; the first thing I've always thought about that verse is like when the Lord said, If your eye cause you to sin, pluck it out and cast it away from you; for its better to enter into life one-eyed, than to be cast into the Gehenna of fire. The Greek word translated, "burn" comes from the word meaning "to kindle" or "be ignited, glow" lit. be refined, or inflamed (with anger grief lust etc).
Romans 15: 8 Now I say that Jesus Christ was a minister of the circumcision for the truth of God, to confirm the promises made unto the fathers: Now, I am a uncircumcised Gentile, therefore I follow Apostle Paul through Jesus Christ. Praise the Lord
3 For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures 4 And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures: Salvation is and always will be at the cross, that's where Jesus is glorified by his finished works. We must believe the Word and be saved with all our faith in heart. Amen
lewis, If I am included in "most", I have not forgotten. Philippians 2:12 Paul said,"Wherefore my beloved as ye have always obeyed, not as in my presence only, but now much more in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling." There's those words again; obey ,fear and trembling."
I think most are forgetting several scriptures in the Bible, Jesus said you must be born again, of the Spirit and of the water, Peter said to repent and be baptized in the name of Jesus, Paul said we must work out our own salvation, and there are many more scriptures confirming this.We as adults can not be saved by what some one else believes.
marriage was created by God if at time we have no respect for God how can we have respect for our spouses. the Holy Spirit gudies us into all truth if we have the holy within us our desire will be for God and God alone hence any other relationship will have a positive and strong influence. but this is a daily relationship with God its a process so that we may reach the standards of God
Great chapter of the bible. As a christian counselor let me say Marriage should be taken seriously. I have seen so many fall apart because of our lack of knowledge. Just as you would tune up your car to keep it running smoothly. I advise married couples to attend marriage seminars or retreats annually. God Bless
In this times and season of chaos, pestilence, recession, terrorism, crisis, wars, draught, famine experienced around the world, we need to draw closer to God.
It is a good thing to serve the Lord. When the word of God concerning marriage is wholly applied, it brings peace, joy, harmony, togetherness and above all love to the home.
God Bless the Marriage of all our brethren globally.
To 'p' on 1 Cor. (lust) -- as lust is condemned, then it isn't part of the Spirit of God. The spirit of God is found in Gal. I forget the scriptures. A person with God's spirit indwelling in him - God gives desire' to for their mate, not 'lust'. You have to have the indwelling spirit to know the difference. Lust is of Satan.
If looking at another with lust is considered adultery, and we are more or less biologically programmed to feel lust in order to propogate the species, it would appear that the overwhelming majority of human beings are guilty of a mortal sin because of their nature.Good thing looking at other peoples food isn't a sin.
It is so good to adhere to God's word. When you ask him to help you. You will be sustained. It is good that people who are preparing to get married agree and ask the Lord to assist them and do not indulge in formication. It is possible to wait until the day of the Wedding. God bless you all.
I left my husband for the 3rd time ,due to emotional ,physically and spiritually abuse, it's sad cause the only time he pleased if I allow him to come over and stay a night or two, but I'm not happy with that. I would love for my husband to seek GOD for his healing and blessing, and then if its meant for us to be 1 again then ill be happy. If not I must accept the fact and truth divorce.
The KJV says it is good for a MAN not to touch a WOMAN. The next verse says but let every MAN have his own WIFE. That alone shows that a MAN is NOT to touch a WOMAN until she is his WIFE. The word adultery means when a MARRIED person physically romantically touches another people that is not their own spouse. Fornication is people doing stuff before they are married. I have been married for a little over a year now, and me nor my husband did anything physically romantic with each other or anyone else til we were married. It is the most wonderful feeling that he never had his hands on another woman and I never had another guy touching me. Thanks for reading. Please don't comment if you are trying to defend yourself. The Bible says what it says.
Verse 14 If your spouse is not saved you should be dutiful and have compassion for your spouse. Demonstrate the love of God in all that you do. Focus on God and trust him to do the work of salvation. You may influence your spouse by your faith in God and your behaviour in the home.
Wife Keep On WHIT WHAT YOU ARE DOING GOD IS WITH YOU AL-WAYS THERE IS NOTHING THAT GOD CAN T DO,I WILL PRAY WITH YOU EACH AN EVERY-DAY ,IN JESUS FATHERNAME .A-MEN KINSTON NC
First God never endorses nor allows adultery to go unpunished. I this verse the writer is advising married people on how the relationship between husband and wife is structured. Your question is answered in verse 5 6. 1Co 7:5 Defraud ye not one the other, except it be with consent for a time, that ye may give yourselves to fasting and prayer and come together again, that Satan tempt you not for your inconsistency. 1Co 7:6 But I speak this by permission, and not of commandment. In theses words Paul speaks to times of illness or other time when married people might need to be apart. Paul then writes what a lot of married people sometimes feel Ok some feel this way all the time but they need help 1Co 7:7 For I would that all men were even as I myself. But every man hath his proper gift of God, one after this manner, and another after that. 1Co 7:8 I say therefore to the unmarried and widows, It is good for them if they abide even as I. 1Co 7:9 But if they cannot contain, let them marry: for it is better to marry than to burn. This of course advises them on how to avoid the wrath of God for fornication . Be warned!
It is because of that God again has a plan for each of us.

@jessicahoover your husband is sanctified through you: according to Strongs accordance, that word there means set apart, holy in sight of God
