The Beauty of Marriage—God’s Way

PRAYER TO THANK GOD! Pray this . . .  Jesus, we thank YOU for YOUR creation and every aspect of it! Thank You for bringing people together for YOUR purposes! Thank YOU, Father, for bringing my parents together with myself as the fruit of that relationship. In the name of Jesus, amen.

SAINTS: If you want to have sex—that’s good—yet God says to get married and enjoy it in that context only! Read 1 Thessalonians 4:1-8. The world of sinners says, “Get a room” (fornicate). God says for us to get married, and then and only then will we be able to enjoy His blessings with a clear conscience and glorify Him therein. (See 1 Corinthians 7:1-5; Colossians 3:1-7.) Eternal damnation awaits all fornicators and adulterers (Revelation 21:8).

Sex is of divine design and for 1 man and 1 woman in their own privacy. Without exception, every fornicator, adulterer is going to the lake of fire irrevocably (1 Corinthians 6:9-10; Revelation 21:8, etc.).

ALL sex outside of the marriage between one man and one woman is fornication.

The LORD spells out in detail what He considers unlawful sexual relations. Put on your seatbelt. Read Leviticus 18. “Thou shalt not lie with mankind, as with womankind: it is abomination.” (Leviticus 18:22) Any sex outside of a married MAN and his wife, a WOMAN, is fornication. Soul damning. It doesn’t matter what you think. Your opinion is less than zero in the eyes of a holy God. Repent now and follow Jesus or perish.

ALL sex outside of the marriage between one man and one woman is sin, fornication.

Homosexuality, sodomy, lesbianism, and sex before marriage are NOT under grace – Never have been, never will be. God doesn’t bless or justify what He calls an abomination (Leviticus 18:22; Romans 1; 1 Thessalonians 4:1-8). Repent now sinner – or you are going to hell for calling your Maker a liar!

The word “fornication” appears 36 times in the King James Bible while the new fake “bibles” use the words “sexual immorality.” The King James Bible, as usual, uses the correct word, “fornication”, and not “sexual immorality” as “sexual immorality” can be defined any way the individual chooses. False “Bibles” Exposed

Marriage is honourable in all, and the bed (Gr. coitus, intercourse) undefiled: but whoremongers and adulterers God will judge. ~ Hebrews 13:4

True followers of Jesus are not being conformed to the ways of this sinful world, but rather to Christ:

I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service. 2 And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God. ~ Romans 12:1-2

In a world where Satan seeks to turn everyone against everyone else—including the daring idiocy of turning males and females against each other—we should be thankful today for the creativity of God in His creation. “So, God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he them” (Genesis 1:27).

Concerning the laws of evil men who attempt to redefine the family unit as originally designed by our Maker, William Pavichevich writes:

While those who pass these bills and legislations, their paper money is meaningless to God and even us, because so long as we have the truth in us, and stand for the truth, nothing these politicians can pass, will amount to anything in the long run.

We must allow God to define marriage by hearkening to the full counsel of His Word in this matter and never allow the fallen world to define anything in our minds. We are Christ’s—bought with the price of His very blood and set apart to glorify Him alone. (Read 1 Corinthians 6:19-20; 2 Corinthians 5:17-18; 6:14-7:1.)

When a couple was asked how they managed to stay together for 65 years, the woman replied, “We were born in a time where if something was broke, you fixed it . . . not throw it away.”

Sex in and of itself is not a sin . . .  when practiced and enjoyed within holy matrimony as God has designed. All sex outside of that marital bond between a man and a woman is sin. So, God says “Don’t lust, get married.” (See 1 Corinthians 7:1-5.)

God Has Called Us to Holiness

Furthermore then we beseech you, brethren, and exhort you by the Lord Jesus, that as ye have received of us how ye ought to walk and to please God, so ye would abound more and more. 2 For ye know what commandments we gave you by the Lord Jesus. 3 For this is the will of God, even your sanctification, that ye should abstain from fornication: 4 That every one of you should know how to possess his vessel in sanctification and honour; 5 Not in the lust of concupiscence, even as the Gentiles which know not God: 6 That no man go beyond and defraud his brother in any matter: because that the Lord is the avenger of all such, as we also have forewarned you and testified. 7  For God hath not called us unto uncleanness, but unto holiness. 8 He therefore that despiseth, despiseth not man, but God, who hath also given unto us his holy Spirit.  ~ 1 Thessalonians 4:1-8

One Flesh

Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave unto his wife: and they shall be one flesh. ~ Genesis 2:24

Jesus says the man/husband and woman/wife “shall be one flesh.” Last time I checked, God used a man and a woman—and the attraction He put between them—to bring them together, right?

Wherefore they are no more twain, but one flesh. What therefore God hath joined together, let not man put asunder. ~ Matthew 19:6

Jesus told us that only God himself can join a man and woman together in marriage—and that means that man (the State) has nothing to do with it, and can only witness this work of God, beginning at the wedding. Man seeks to insert himself into this holiest of all relationships on earth to poison it. Beware. A piece of paper (marriage certificate) does not marry anyone. Only God can do that!

For this cause shall a man leave father and mother, and shall cleave to his wife: and they twain shall be one flesh? 6 Wherefore they are no more twain, but one flesh. What therefore God hath joined together, let not man put asunder. ~ Matthew 19:5-6

Genesis 24 Anyone?

Romance was undeniably created by the LORD. He made Eve for Adam, right? He inspired the book of Song of Solomon. It’s sin and the lust of people’s hearts that perverts this gift, and yet the gift is not a sin in and of itself. God expects men and women to be attracted to each other, and for His born-again men—to act toward His most beautiful creature, women, with holiness. God also has ordained and expects women to dress modestly so as not to unduly tempt men, because the woman’s femininity is for that one man whom God has ordained her to be with (1 Timothy 2:9; Luke 17:1-2).

And the LORD God said, It is NOT good that the man should be alone; I will make him an help meet for him. ~ Genesis 2:18

God is Unchanging (Malachi 3:6; James 1:17)

God has ordained that a man and a woman be together as he has defined it. In light of this obvious truth, is it not interesting, and by no accident, that He speaks of “the washing of water by the Word” in the midst of the passage at the end of Ephesians 5 where He speaks of His Bride? Do we not have need of the truth—to wash our minds of all notions that are not pure—purely from His blessed, holy Word?

The LORD depicts His relationship to His people as Himself being the Bridegroom and His people being His bride, who are to dwell with Him in a sanctified manner “not having spot, or wrinkle, or any such thing; but that it should be holy and without blemish” (Ephesians 5:25-33).

Two are Better than One (Ecclesiastes 4:9-12)

“Two are better than one; because they have a good reward for their labour. 10 For if they fall, the one will lift up his fellow: but woe to him that is alone when he falleth; for he hath not another to help him up. 11 Again, if two lie together, then they have heat: but how can one be warm alone? 12 And if one prevail against him, two shall withstand him; and a threefold cord is not quickly broken.” Ecclesiastes 4:9-12

There are some flat out stupid mindsets among us like the so-called Puritans and other groups which do not exemplify divine holiness but rather put the performance of law upon themselves, so they can congratulate themselves and receive the honor in lieu of Christ. Flesh cannot bring about God’s holiness. Such is “the spirit of antichrist” which replaces Christ with the false, phony god of self. Only Christ can bring about “true holiness” (Ephesians 4:22-25).

Remember that Paul spoke of “true holiness” (Ephesians 4:22-25), which means that there is a false form of holiness that masquerades itself as righteous—when in the eyes of God, it is evil. False holiness is man-imposed “holiness” which is nonsense.

May God grant us “the spirit of holiness” and evict every trace of philosophy and all false notions of what holiness is, as He alone can define (Romans 1:4).

A man and his wife are to be set apart to the LORD as He has designed, not according to man’s version of “holiness”—which is sinful because it emphasizes the OUTSIDE of the cup—the appearance—and doesn’t deal with the sinful INSIDE of their cup —the heart— (Matthew 23:23-25).

Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself for it; 26 That he might sanctify and cleanse it with the washing of water by the word, 27 That he might present it to himself a glorious church, not having spot, or wrinkle, or any such thing; but that it should be holy and without blemish. 28 So ought men to love their wives as their own bodies. He that loveth his wife loveth himself. 29 For no man ever yet hated his own flesh; but nourisheth and cherisheth it, even as the Lord the church: 30 For we are members of his body, of his flesh, and of his bones. 31 For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and shall be joined unto his wife, and they two shall be one flesh. 32 This is a great mystery: but I speak concerning Christ and the church. 33 Nevertheless let every one of you in particular so love his wife even as himself; and the wife see that she reverence her husband. ­~ Ephesians 5:25-33

Romance, the attraction between male and female, is undeniably by divine design. Just because sinful, fallen mankind has perverted such a blessed gift does not make it okay for God’s people to shun it and to look at it as something mundane, dull, or evil. No, as God’s people, we should aggrandize marriage as a blessing from the LORD and demonstrate exactly how the LORD designed things to work—to bring Him glory. It’s the stewardship, the use of that attraction and gift, that the LORD looks at—beginning with our attitude, our perspective of it.

The attraction between male and female is not a sin—it’s the design of our Maker. The misuse of such an attraction (lust) is a sin. The context of marriage is where that attraction is to culminate and fully be expressed (1 Corinthians 6:12). Such glorifies God.

Unto the pure all things are pure: but unto them that are defiled and unbelieving is nothing pure; but even their mind and conscience is defiled. ~ Titus 1:15

Keeping one’s body “under” (the daily cross) is the key to experiencing all of Christ’s blessings both now and forever:

But I keep under my body, and bring it into subjection: lest that by any means, when I have preached to others, I myself should be a castaway. ~ 1 Corinthians 9:27

Elisabeth Elliot wrote:

Of all things difficult to rule, none were more so than my will and affections.

~

We cannot give our hearts to God and keep our bodies to ourselves.

~

When obedience to God contradicts what I think will give me pleasure, let me ask myself if I love him

~

Prayer:  Heavenly Father, You alone created all that is. Your crowning creation is mankind. LORD You made Adam, breathed the breath of life into him, and then created Eve out of his side. Jesus, You gave me the desire to be joined together with one of the opposite sex. Please bring that person and me together, and meanwhile, set us apart in holiness for Your glory. Teach my heart that we are complete and content in Christ. Purify our hearts. Wash and cleanse and prepare us to glorify You alone in all we do. Thank You Father that in Your time, You make all things beautiful! In Jesus’ Name, amen.

The Book of Jude Narrated [podcast]


The Book of Jude:

Jude, the servant of Jesus Christ, and brother of James, to them that are sanctified by God the Father, and preserved in Jesus Christ, and called: mercy unto you, and peace, and love, be multiplied.

Beloved, when I gave all diligence to write unto you of the common salvation, it was needful for me to write unto you, and exhort you that ye should earnestly contend for the faith which was once delivered unto the saints. For there are certain men crept in unawares, who were before of old ordained to this condemnation, ungodly men, turning the grace of our God into lasciviousness, and denying the only Lord God, and our Lord Jesus Christ.

I will therefore put you in remembrance, though ye once knew this, how that the Lord, having saved the people out of the land of Egypt, afterward destroyed them that believed not. And the angels which kept not their first estate, but left their own habitation, he hath reserved in everlasting chains under darkness unto the judgment of the great day. Even as Sodom and Gomorrha, and the cities about them in like manner, giving themselves over to fornication, and going after strange flesh, are set forth for an example, suffering the vengeance of eternal fire. Likewise also these filthy dreamers defile the flesh, despise dominion, and speak evil of dignities. Yet Michael the archangel, when contending with the devil he disputed about the body of Moses, durst not bring against him a railing accusation, but said, The Lord rebuke thee.

10 But these speak evil of those things which they know not: but what they know naturally, as brute beasts, in those things they corrupt themselves. 11 Woe unto them! for they have gone in the way of Cain, and ran greedily after the error of Balaam for reward, and perished in the gainsaying of Core. 12 These are spots in your feasts of charity, when they feast with you, feeding themselves without fear: clouds they are without water, carried about of winds; trees whose fruit withereth, without fruit, twice dead, plucked up by the roots; 13 raging waves of the sea, foaming out their own shame; wandering stars, to whom is reserved the blackness of darkness for ever.

14 And Enoch also, the seventh from Adam, prophesied of these, saying, Behold, the Lord cometh with ten thousands of his saints, 15 to execute judgment upon all, and to convince all that are ungodly among them of all their ungodly deeds which they have ungodly committed, and of all their hard speeches which ungodly sinners have spoken against him. 16 These are murmurers, complainers, walking after their own lusts; and their mouth speaketh great swelling words, having men’s persons in admiration because of advantage.

17 But, beloved, remember ye the words which were spoken before of the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ; 18 how that they told you there should be mockers in the last time, who should walk after their own ungodly lusts. 19 These be they who separate themselves, sensual, having not the  Spirit. 20 But ye, beloved, building up yourselves on your most holy faith, praying in the Holy Ghost, 21 keep yourselves in the love of God, looking for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ unto eternal life. 22 And of some have compassion, making a difference: 23 and others save with fear, pulling them out of the fire; hating even the garment spotted by the flesh.

24 Now unto him that is able to keep you from falling, and to  present you faultless before the presence of his glory with exceeding joy, 25 to the only wise God our Saviour, be glory and majesty, dominion and power, both now and ever. Amen.

The Song of Moses: God’s Favor upon His People [podcast]


“And Moses spake in the ears of all the congregation of Israel the words of this song, until they were ended.” Deuteronomy 31:30

Everything we read of the children of Israel was pointing to Christ and to His perfect salvation He would later come and accomplish and bestow upon His beloved people, the body of Christ which is “the Israel of God.” (Galatians 6:16)  And so this song is written to us (Romans 15:4;  Corinthians 10:11).

At the end of his days, at the end of the 5 books he penned, God gives us through Moses a summation of His salvation work among His beloved people.

“He found him in a desert land, and in the waste howling wilderness; he led him about, he instructed him, he kept him as the apple of his eye. 11 As an eagle stirreth up her nest, fluttereth over her young, spreadeth abroad her wings, taketh them, beareth them on her wings: 12 So the LORD alone did lead him, and there was no strange god with him. 13  He made him ride on the high places of the earth, that he might eat the increase of the fields; and he made him to suck honey out of the rock, and oil out of the flinty rock;  14  Butter of kine, and milk of sheep, with fat of lambs, and rams of the breed of Bashan, and goats, with the fat of kidneys of wheat; and thou didst drink the pure blood of the grape.” Deuteronomy 32:10-14

“32:10-14 The birth and childhood of the nation of Israel are described in verse 10. After the Exodus from Egypt, God guided, instructed, and preserved His people with the love of a mother eagle (v. 11). There was no foreign god who had a part in Israel’s preservation. Why then should the nation turn to idolatry and ascribe the goodness of Jehovah to another? Beginning in verse 13, the song is prophetic. He brought them into the blessings of the Promised Land.” Believer’s Bible Commentary

“Deuteronomy 32:10
a    [He found him in a desert land …] The sevenfold preservation of Israel:
1.    God found (literally, sustained) him in the wilderness (Deu_32:10).
2.    He led him around (Deu_32:10-12).
3.    He instructed him (Deu_32:10).
4.    He kept him as the apple (pupil) of His eye.
5.    He preserved him from idolatry (Deu_32:12).
6.    He exalted him among the nations (Deu_32:13).
7.    He gave him material prosperity (Deu_32:13-14).
b    [apple of his eye] Hebrew: ’iyshown (H380), the dark pupil of the eye; the hole, gate, or door of the eye (Psa_17:8; Pro_7:2)” Dake

“Deuteronomy 31:30-32:14
MOSES’ SONG: THE LORD’S FAVOR UPON ISRAEL
The song of Moses, like the fabled song of the swan, was his last and sweetest. It is probably the noblest ode in the whole compass of the Bible, and is the source from which subsequent singers derived suggestions for their noblest outbursts. The marginal references prove how deeply it dyed the national sentiment.

It excels in the names and designations of the Almighty. He is the Rock: Deu_31:4; Deu_31:15; Deu_31:18; Deu_31:30; Jehovah: Deu_31:6; Father: Deu_31:6; the Most High: Deu_31:8; God: El, the strong, Deu_31:15, etc. What a study are the names of God, scattered through the Bible! Each was coined to meet some need of the human soul. What the rocks of the desert are to its shifting sands God is amid the changes of this mortal existence.

This earlier part of the song is very tender. We are God’s portion; the apple of His eye; as young eaglets, whom the mother-bird is carefully teaching to fly, the favored recipients of God’s richest gifts, Deu_31:13, etc.” FB Meyer

Notice the descriptive language, the metaphors—how the LORD illustrates how He loves, protects, and provides for His people. In Scripture, the LORD uses imagery to communicate truth.

“Moses’ song and what our LORD reveals in this message, is such a beautiful picture of God finding us in our hopeless, miserable, and lost state. He pulls us out of the miry clay and gives us His supply of grace. He then clothes us with His righteousness, seating us in heavenly places in Christ and surrounding us with His care and protection. God’s love and goodness to us.” Karen Cochran

“He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most High

shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty. 2 I will

say of the LORD, He is my refuge and my fortress: my

God; in him will I trust. 3 Surely he shall deliver thee

from the snare of the fowler, and from the noisome

pestilence. 4 He shall cover thee with his feathers,

and under his wings shalt thou trust: his truth shall

be thy shield and buckler.” Psalms 91:1-4

Read Psalm 91 often so this truth permeates you. Here the LORD uses the imagery of His “winged fowl” creation (Genesis 1:21). GOD made this very creature/bird for the express purpose of showing us how much He loves us and how He comforts, cares and provides for, guides, and protects His own (Psalms 91:1).

“The Song of Moses is recorded in Deuteronomy 32 of the King James Version (KJV), spanning verses 1 through 43. It is a prophetic poem given by Moses to the children of Israel just before his death, serving as a witness and a reminder of God’s faithfulness and Israel’s potential turning away.”

Prayer: Father, please grant that I know and understand You more and more. I love You LORD. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

Jesus in Every Book of the Bible

First and foremost, God’s Word was written to reveal Christ.

The Bible is said to be “The only Book where the divine Author is present every time you read it.”

He’s divinely encoded and present on every page of His Word.

“And he said unto them, These are the words which I spake unto you, while I was yet with you, that all things must be fulfilled, which were written in the law of Moses, and in the prophets, and in the psalms, concerning me.” Luke 24:44 

Every book of the Bible is about the LORD Jesus, who is the central theme, the sacred substance of all of Holy Scripture. If we miss Him, we miss everything, we miss the grand subject and revelation of God’s Word.

“Search the scriptures; for in them ye think ye have eternal life: and they are they which testify of me. 40 And ye will not come to me, that ye might have life.” John 5:39-40

This makes it clear that we can “search the scriptures,” we can know them, and yet not know the Author.

They knew the Word of God but did not know the God of the Word. They made the choice not to “come to” Jesus thorugh His Word. They made it about themselves, not Jesus.

The Bible is one Book from one divine Author. The divisions are there to help us navigator His Word. – Old and New Testaments, chapters, verses, etc.

“Open thou mine eyes, that I may behold wondrous things out of thy law.” Psalms 119:18

The supreme and most important “wondrous” thing we are to behold in Holy Writ, is Jesus Christ.

Amen. Jesus Christ is King of all kings, LORD of all lords.

“Behold, he cometh with clouds; and every eye shall see him, and they also which pierced him: and all kindreds of the earth shall wail because of him. Even so, Amen. 8 I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the ending, saith the Lord, which is, and which was, and which is to come, the Almighty.” Revelation 1:7-8

Even so, Amen. 8 I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the ending, saith the Lord, which is, and which was, and which is to come, the Almighty.” Revelation 1:7-8
