Posted : 6 Jul, 2014 12:19 AM 8, 'He saith unto them, "Moses because of the hardness of your hearts suffered you to put away your wives: but from the beginning it was not so." Moses had to altinate cause husbands were aren't willing to forgive their wives, therefore a letter of divorcement was an altinative. (You're welcome to correct me if I got this wrong) I personally don't think God approved this inasmuch as He condones it! Why am I saying this: Because both are still expected to abstain (irrespective of who divorced the other) until one of the two dies, then the remaining part can decide to marry again if willing to, further sexual practices with other parties who are not partakers of this covenant is considered 'adultery' since the convent was mean, 'till death do us part!' God's expectations' on husbands are a little harder since they are suppose to reflect Christ who keeps forgiving the sinful church. Wives/weman are considered 'weaker vessels' which is a reflection of the church but this doesn't mean wives should do wrong intentionally just cause God's word is harder on husbands for our sake. Having said the above in agreement with Joy's reply when saying: "...After becoming betrothed or in modern times "engaged", I believe is when the marriage technically begins..." What happens if your fiancee does something that compromises and shakes your trust on her as your wife to be in the very near future? Do you withdraw and walk away while you still can (since you're not yet officially married to her) Or you instantly start working on being tolerant and forgiving since you'll have to live up to this expectation anyway if you do wish to be someone's husband in future? This is a continuetion of a question I asked on the ladies forum, I'm interested in hearing your views guys taking to consideration the opening passage from the book of Matthew 19:7 Weather you do agree with Joy's reply or not. Much much appreciation for time taken in writing back, Thanks a million times! :nahnah: Post Reply
View Profile History	When do you start living up to your marriage vows? Posted : 30 Jul, 2014 05:33 AM Where do the vows of marriage come from? Are they the commandments of the Lord or the traditions of men? What was the earliest marriage in the bible and how was it initiated? Did Adam ask Eve to marry him? Did they go to church? Did they get married? Or did they just have sex with each other because they were made for each other and did not commit adultery? Did he forge her a gold ring? Are you supposed to vow to not be with any other women? Why did King David have several wives and 10 concubines? Why did the Lord favor David and allow polygamy if the Lord was against polygamy? Were his wives jealous? Brain twisters :rolleyes: Post Reply

Posted : 31 Jul, 2014 10:18 AM Even if Adam or Eve wanted to commit adultery, there was no one to commit that with since they were only two on earth. And what do you mean by "twisted brain?" I tolerate any other attitude but arrogance! You don't want us relating in that manner now do you? Keep your opinions to your self please in future if insulting is your idea of communicating. Thought this site was done with members of your kind since they were all deactivated from partaking here! Post Reply
