Marriage

It may be worth noting that in any so called “democracy” in any part of the world there are still major problems of crime because legal philosophers pontificate about man's fear of death and man's quest for power as the two major motivating factors that drive the passions of man. If what these philosophers say is true then man has been debased to a lump organic matter creeping through a miserable life waiting for death to put him out of his misery. The fear of death however is no excuse for the hatred and misery and persecution that a few men in power unleash on the cringing defenceless masses. One Philosopher (Rousseau) said something like “man is born free, but spends the rest of his life in chains”. A preacher

( William Branham) once said “ God made man, man made slaves”.

When the Bible talks of slavery, the Bible is addressing the dispensation of HUMAN GOVERNMENT, where man has rejected THEOCRACY and has embraced DEMOCRACY. In theory , democracy may appear to be good. However, in practice, anyone with eagle vision. Can look around the world and see corruption cankering the corridors of corruption and prominent figures of power falling by the wayside, making breaking news headlines in corruption scandals. Man is an animal without God. Fumbling in darkness, committing perverse acts then perverting legislation to legalise pervert acts. IT IS SPIRITUAL WICKEDNESS IN HIGH PLACES making ungodly laws appear to be good when they deprave man even further and further . It is an abomination for mankind to sleep with mankind. Homosexuality is of the devil. Concerning the beating of slaves in Exodus 21:20, in any democracy , there is a saying “..if you do the crime , you got to do the time...” and “ ...the punishment should fit the crime....”. If the world democracies did not have deterrent punishment, philosophers tell us that there will be a total “...breakdown of law and order...” . Nobody wants anarchy. Nobody wants cruel and unusual punishment. With regards to Genesis 19 :33-36, the Bible records man's failure to control his passions when man walks the walk of sensual lust and depravity. The Bible serves as a mirror for the honest in heart to look at themselves and see themselves as sinners in need of a Saviour. Incest is condemned in the scriptures. (READ LEVICTICUS chapter 18 verse 1 to verse18 ). Concerning Deuteronomy 22 verse 28 -29, with prayerful study and revelation ,it is clear the Bible does not condone rape. Furthermore , the covenant of marriage is held in high esteem and the act of procreation is sacred, the marriage bed is to be pure and not defiled and marriage should be honoured by all for God will judge “...the adulterer and all the sexually immoral...” ( Hebrews 13 verse 4). In Genesis 19 verse 8, Lot who had chosen to live a life of ease in Sodom, told those men of Sodom “...NOT TO DO THIS WICKED THING......” ( Genesis 19 verse 7 ) offered his daughters to those sodomites, ( The wicked thing being homosexuality, condemned repeatedly in the scriptures). The Bible records that these sodomites in Genesis 19 had no desire to sleep with Lot's daughters.Their sinful desires had degraded to depravity (Romans 1 verse 28 -29) and they only had desire for men not women. The Bible condemns homosexuality (Levicticus 18 verse 22 ; Romans 1 verse 27).

In 2 Timothy verse 11 to 14 and 1 Corinthians 14 verse 33 to 35) the Bible states a Biblical truth , that Eve was deceived by the Serpent in the garden of Eden , Not Adam. Adam was not deceived. Adam was in the original creation of God. Eve was not in the original creation, she was a by product, made from Adam's rib ( Genesis2 verse 18 to 25 ). The Bible records the first Marriage between a man and a woman, that is Adam and Eve, not Adam and Steve. The Bible therefore states that a woman should not usurp authority over man . In Matthew 19 verse 9 and 1 Corinthians 7 : 10 -12 , the Bible is talking to godly believers, born again, Holy Ghost filled, water baptised in the Name of the Lord Jesus Christ, living holy and godly lives, following peace with all men. The Bible in Matthew 19 verse 9 and 1 Corinthians 7 : 10 -12 , is not referring to those unbelievers outside the Body of Christ that have made their own church clubs and profess to be Christians and label themselves with all types of blasphemous names (Revelation 17) and live ungodly filthy lives and legislate laws to “legalise” their perversity. Sin is Sin. Aids and other STDS will continue to strike down immoral filthy adulterers and fornicators and homosexuals. Marriage is a HOLY UNION BETWEEN ONE MAN AND ONE WOMAN. Marriage is not filthy living. ( Numbers 31 verse 19 ). You may care to read , John 8 verse 1 to 11. The pharisees sought to stone the woman caught committing adultery. Where was the man? Both should have been stoned according to the law of Moses ( Levicticus 20 verse 10 and Deutronomy 22 verse 22 ). The Lord Jesus seen the unrighteous judgement of the pharisees and told the woman “...Neither do I condemn thee, go, and sin no more...” ( John 8 verse11). LEAVE YOUR LIFE OF SIN AND SIN NO MORE.
