  1. Sorry I did not respond sooner! I did not realize that I had not followed this topic when I posted it! Yes, He must be first in everything this is so true! And I completely agree, you absolutely should get that notebook back out! He speaks so much more when we cherish the Words He gives us! He gives us so many more dreams when we write them down when we wake up from them, as hard as it is! It also helps them to not get His Words and visions distorted, stolen, or forgotten! GOD IS GREAT! Thank you sharing this, it has blessed me and I know I need to be worshiping more first thing in the morning and not just diving straight into His work! I appreciate the reminder! God bless you, in Jesus' mighty name!
  2. Keys to everlasting life!!! This IS the truth of salvation and is absolutely worth 17-min of your time! Jesus revealed this revelation progressively. For a long time I had to preach and live by faith, not fully understanding why this doctrine of fully surrendering to Jesus was not works-righteousness based and left room for grace by faith. Now I understand it's because the humble will live this way. The humble will realize they cannot do anything without Jesus Christ, like Jesus said. The humble will lay down their lives, pick up their cross, and follow Jesus to life, daily! As the Bible makes clear: God resists the proud, and to the HUMBLE God gives GRACE! And is it not by grace that we are saved?! It is. So humility is absolutely key to salvation. Humility is what is good and right in the sight of God. Humility is what leads to the kind of life that allow the work to get HIS eternal work done through us. Humility is everything, for without it we become enemies of God, and God WILL resist us, and I cannot imagine any of those that God has resisted entering in to Heaven on the day of judgement. I guess time will tell. But to me, the scriptures make it crystal clear, and I am going to pursue this race home to God with the most zeal and to the highest degree possible for me to run. I am not playing around or risking my eternal soul. Humility is the path I will choose, by the grace of God, by humbling myself in brokenness of spirit, in poverty of spirit, in front of Him and seeking HIS way home, as HE leads me!!! God is awesome, wonderful, and amazing! At the end of the day, there is nothing better than God's plan for out lives. His will is perfect; He is all-loving, all-knowing, and all-powerful, truly we should be jumping at the chance to surrender our lives to a God such as this, and I ABSOLUTELY AM! God has proven His goodness to me time and time again! There is no other way to TRULY live and get the most out of this life than to give it ALL over to Him! So to those who choose to do their best to take their every word and action from God, I think that is wonderful! Let us continually humble ourselves in front of Him, and follow His way home! It's going to be a marvelous journey to say the least! God bless you all, in Jesus' mighty name! -Daniel James 4:6 (NIV): But he gives us more grace. That is why Scripture says: "God opposes the proud but shows favor to the humble." James 4:6 (KJV): But he giveth more grace. Wherefore he saith, God resisteth the proud, but giveth grace unto the humble. John 14:6: Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me. Matthew 7:21: “Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only the one who does the will of my Father who is in heaven. Acts 4:12: Salvation is found in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given to mankind by which we must be saved.” Ephesians 2:8 For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith—and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God— 9 not by works, so that no one can boast. Romans 10:9 If you declare with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. Titus 3:5: he saved us, not because of righteous things we had done, but because of his mercy. He saved us through the washing of rebirth and renewal by the Holy Spirit, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A-eg4L5L4S8
  3. A collection of some of the Proofs of God, Jesus Christ, and the Holy Bible ALL of these fields of study prove Jesus Christ, God, and the Holy Bible to be the truth of the universe! -Science! -Quantum Physics! -Archaeology! -Mathematics! -Biblical Prophecy! -Nature! -History! -Health! -Cosmology! -Medical Science! -Astronomy! -Testimonies! -Kingdom Power! ******************************************************************************************* ***************** - Search on YouTube: “Proofs of God, Christ, and the Bible Playlist” - ***************** *******************************************************************************************
  4. There are many proofs of God, Christ, and the Bible, some of these are complied here if you like to view them: Search on YouTube: “Proofs of God, Christ, and the Bible Playlist” But I know for certain Jesus Christ is King; Jesus Christ is Lord the same way you can know! ...by the relationship we can have with Him! I've never known such love. I've never known such truth, gentleness, grace, goodness, kindness, patience, truth. His voice is pure; pure love. His ways are undoubtable. His power is evident. I've seen countless miracles, but it's so much more than that. God is way too good not to know and talk with all day every day! If you pursue Him with all your heart, He will make Himself known to you, and you can know, that you know, that you know like I do! I promise you I could not be fabricating what I have experienced; it's too obvious an all-knowing hand is involved in all that I do as I follow His still soft, perfect voice. The relationship is key! The Lord loves you and yearns and desires for a deep relationship with you! No you haven't "over-sinned." Just ask. Just ask Him to come into your life and make Himself known to you. God is everywhere. Genuinely, just ask! You can also search my video testimony on YouTube called: "Following God Proves God - Part 1 Daniel Quartararo" and hear more of the incredible miracles I've seen and the amazing things God has done for me! May God bless you, in Jesus' mighty name! I'm here for you if you need anything or would like to talk. <3 Much love, in Christ! -Daniel
  5. False favor is one of the biggest deceptions in the church today. Those who the enemy has in bonds who claim Christ the enemy will OFTEN "bless" financially, especially if they have a following or influence over people/society. People believe all outward blessing is from God and do not remember that Satan is still the God is this world, and it is not hard for Satan to get his little network of demons to financially overflow someone's life, open doors in the world, and convince that person it "all came from God! Look at how good God is!" when they are filled with pride and their heart is far from God. God resists the proud and to the humble God gives grace. We are saved by grace. So God's grace only is given to the humble. Read this again, this is important: God resists the proud and to the humble God gives grace. We are saved by grace. So God's grace goes to the humble alone. Please forgive him. Not forgiving someone is like drinking poison and hoping the other person dies. But more importantly, your Heavenly Father can't forgive you if you don't forgive. Look into the scriptures, it's scriptural. Follow God's will, seek His voice, know His voice, and you really won't care what's going on in this world, and He will give you a heart to love the worst people as well. Deep, surrendered relationship with God changes everything and it takes humility (God resists the proud...and to the humble God gives grace... Ref: James 4:6). God bless you, deeply, in Jesus' mighty name! God loves you dearly! Pursue Him with all your heart, mind, soul, and strength! You won't regret it! I'm here for you if you need anything at all! Don't be a stranger! -Daniel
  6. Yes! We sure can! Please search "Proofs of God, Christ, and the Bible playlist" on YouTube for an extensive playlist on just this very subject! May God bless you, richly, in Jesus' mighty name!
  7. The vast majority of abortions would be aborted if people would just trust God as a provider. He provides for even those not following Him. It takes an extremely level of involvement in witchcraft and the occult to fall prey to completely blocking God's provision. That being said, I want to encourage you that that child is a blessing whether you can see that right now or not. Psalm 127:2 Children are a blessing and a gift from the Lord. Now, not being a Christian I know that you do not hold the Bible to have authority, so I will say this to you. God promises in His Word if you seek Him with all your heart, you will find Him! That is all I did, and I SURELY found God to say the least. I practiced every major world religion looking for the truth and God did not move for me in any way until I reached out to the Holy Trinity, through His son Jesus Christ. Now say what you want about me knowing God, but my soul has been taken to both the literal Heaven and Hell and that only scratches the surface of my KNOWING God. The relationship is personal, interactive, and beautiful; beyond my wildest imagination, I never wanted to be a Christian! And by the way Heaven is SO much more amazing than anyone could ever imagine, and Hell is SO much worse than anyone can imagine. Realize you (all) have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God. We all have. We all have broken the Ten Commandments; God's law. Have you lied? Have you stolen? Have you lusted after a woman your were not married to in your heart or mind? Have you used God's name as a curse word? These are all serious offenses and we've only look at 4 of 10 commandments. God is a righteousness judge, more righteous than the judges on Earth. No one will say to a judge, "judge, I stole from that man, but I am a really good person, I do a lot for people, let me go free?!" The judge is going to say, "You stole! And now you must pain the fine!" The Bible says the wages of sin is death, that is the fine. And truly it is an eternal state of constantly dying over and over again in anguish, pain, and agony; that is the best way I can describe my experience of Hell; burning and complete and utter torture by the demons who run Hell with every imaginable weapon and device. We got all of our wickedness here on Earth from that spiritual realm. Hell surpasses your worst day on Earth infinite times. But do you know what God did so sinners could be forgiven and make it into Heaven? God sent Jesus Christ, His only begotten son to show us how to have a relationship with His Father. Jesus was then sacrificed on the cross, and God poured His wrath out on Jesus; the spotless, sinless man, God took His wrath out on Him, for the Bible says without blood there can be no atonement for sins. So Jesus gave His blood; so much greater than the blood of animals! It's a free gift; salvation, all we have to do is accept what Jesus did for us to cleanse our sin and ask Him to come and be Lord in our life! We then have to turn away from our lifestyle of sin, and adopt a lifestyle of righteousness by learning what righteousness is by reading His Holy Word, coming into relationship with Him, and following His still soft perfect voice of love in our minds! His plan is beyond brilliant. I could talk for hours on how brilliant God is by how He has unfolded His plan in my life alone as I've followed the voice I learned and now know to be His. As we go through this process, God will then bring us a new heart with new desires, and our new heart will hate sin and love God and love the things of God! It is a real and true miracle! A true new heart of flesh! Truly, a literal new heart! Then we must just follow His unique, specific, and beautiful path He has created for our lives home to Him! We must pick up our cross daily, and follow Jesus by listening for and following His still soft, perfect voice of love! For in His plan, He will bring us His righteousness and set us free from all sin and bondage of sin and death! All fear vanishes, truly! And in following Him, He leads us Home and grants us everlasting life. This is the truth! And this is why we ALL need a savior, because we ALL fallen short of God's glory, no one can deny it, and all those things must be judged because God is good, just, and holy! But He is also rich in rich, so He sent Jesus Christ to pay our fine. And what Jesus suffering God to and on that cross is just another day in Hell, truly. Which is why the sacrifice was perfect and by accepting Him and following Him, God can be just to forgive our sin, because we put on Jesus Christ and His righteousness through His plan for our life! On the day of judgement, we can walk free from God's courts because the fine has been paid! But again we must repent; turn from our sin, deny ourselves, and in humility follow Jesus and His plan for our life! It is the truth. God loves you dearly! And yes, He surely can forgive you! God bless you, in Jesus' mighty name! I am here for you if you need ANYTHING! -Daniel do you know what God did so sinners could be forgiven and make it into Heaven?But do you know what God did so sinners could be forgiven and make it into Heaven?
  8. Please do not take any medical advice off an online forum, and please seek God's voice and specific path forward for you and your life. Every medication I have ever taken to regulate some sort of emotional or mental "imbalance" or whatever they want to call it these days, when I was in the world, only worsened my symptoms, because there was nothing wrong with me, my issues were external circumstance but larger than that my problem was that I was not fully surrendered to our Lord Jesus Christ. The Greek word for "Saved" (God's will for all mankind) is "Sozo" and that word literally means, "Saved, healed, delivered, and made completely whole." That is God's will for you and your life. That is what God did for me... 3.5-years of suicidal tendencies, rage, depression, and addiction broken off in a LITERAL moment when I truly came to Jesus Christ. Seek His voice. Seek His face. Seek His will; His specific will for your life by following His still, soft, perfect voice of love. We all hear voices, anyone who tells you they don't hear demonic voices in their head is either a liar or okay with what those voices are speaking and accept it as themselves. Here's the point: God TOO is speaking! I would encouraging you to search out the teaching on YouTube by myself, called "14 Keys to Hearing God's Voice with Overflowing Confidence" this teaching will change your life if you put into practice what is spoken in there, especially the prayer journal and asking God what He wants to talk about during your prayer time keys. I am here for you if you would like to talk further. I would be happy to disciple you and help you realize your identity and the fullness of being a DAUGHTER of the all-high God in Heaven! God bless you, in Jesus' mighty name and be free, I command every evil and tormenting spirit out of you, in Jesus' mighty name! NOW, in the name of Jesus!!!!!!! Be whole, Holy Spirit, fill her from head to toe, right now, in Jesus' mighty name! Thank you, Jesus! Thank you, Father! Thank you, Holy Spirit! You are free now. Rest in Him in peace. God loves you, dearly. -Daniel
  9. Jewish Man Discovers Jewish Messiah: Jesus Christ - the Power of God's Word and the Life of Christ Romans 10:12-14: For there is no difference between Jew and Gentile—the same Lord is Lord of all and richly blesses all who call on him, 13 for, “Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.” Revelation 3:9: I will make those who are of the synagogue of Satan, who claim to be Jews though they are not, but are liars--I will make them come and fall down at your feet and acknowledge that I have loved you. Exodus 19:5-6: Now if you obey me fully and keep my covenant, then out of all nations you will be my treasured possession. Although the whole earth is mine, 6 you[a] will be for me a kingdom of priests and a holy nation.’ These are the words you are to speak to the Israelites.” Malachi 3:6: “I the LORD do not change. So you, the descendants of Jacob, are not destroyed. Romans 9:27: Isaiah also crieth concerning Israel: “Though the number of the children of Israel be as the sand of the sea, a remnant shall be saved. 14 How, then, can they call on the one they have not believed in? And how can they believe in the one of whom they have not heard? And how can they hear without someone preaching to them? Romans 2:228 For he is not a Jew, which is one outwardly; neither is that circumcision, which is outward in the flesh: 29 But he is a Jew, which is one inwardly; and circumcision is that of the heart, in the spirit, and not in the letter; whose praise is not of men, but of God. Romans 1:16 For I am not ashamed of the gospel, because it is the power of God that brings salvation to everyone who believes: first to the Jew, then to the Gentile. Galatians 3:28 There is neither Jew nor Gentile, neither slave nor free, nor is there male and female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus. Acts 1:8 But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes on you; and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth.” Luke 10:30 In reply Jesus said: “A man was going down from Jerusalem to Jericho, when he was attacked by robbers. They stripped him of his clothes, beat him and went away, leaving him half dead. 31 A priest happened to be going down the same road, and when he saw the man, he passed by on the other side. 32 So too, a Levite, when he came to the place and saw him, passed by on the other side. 33 But a Samaritan, as he traveled, came where the man was; and when he saw him, he took pity on him. 34 He went to him and bandaged his wounds, pouring on oil and wine. Then he put the man on his own donkey, brought him to an inn and took care of him. 35 The next day he took out two denarii[a] and gave them to the innkeeper. ‘Look after him,’ he said, ‘and when I return, I will reimburse you for any extra expense you may have.’ 36 “Which of these three do you think was a neighbor to the man who fell into the hands of robbers?” 37 The expert in the law replied, “The one who had mercy on him.” Jesus told him, “Go and do likewise.” Revelation 2:9 I know thy works, and tribulation, and poverty, (but thou art rich) and I know the blasphemy of them which say they are Jews, and are not, but are the synagogue of Satan. Philippians 3:19 Their destiny is destruction, their god is their stomach, and their glory is in their shame. Their mind is set on earthly things.
  10. From Porn to God! (POWERFUL Testimony of God's Love and Protection!) - Shelley Lubben Shelley Lubben (born May 18, 1968) is an American author, singer, motivational speaker, and former pornographic actress. After she left the adult industry, Lubben became a born-again Christian and anti-pornography activist. As of 2012, she is the Executive Director of the Pink Cross Foundation, which reaches out to women and men in pornography and speaks in public forums, sharing about the hazardous working conditions that she experienced in the porn industry. In January 2015, she closed the Pink Cross Foundation. She is also an ordained Chaplain with the Order of Saint Martin with a degree in Theological studies. Lubben was born on May 18, 1968 in Pasadena, California. In an interview with Howard Stern and Deseret News, Lubben stated that when she was nine years old, a brother and sister sexually abused her. Lubben worked as a prostitute from age 18 to 26. During this time, she became pregnant by one of her customers, and later gave birth to a daughter. She entered the adult film industry, while working as a prostitute, when she was 24 years old. During her time in the adult industry, she contracted herpes and HPV, which led to cervical cancer, and resulted in the removal of half her cervix. During and after her life in the adult industry, she battled alcohol and drug addictions. In 2005, Lubben initiated an aggressive online marketing campaign, utilizing social networking web sites in order to reach out to the adult industry. In 2008, Lubben established a faith-based organization called the Pink Cross Foundation. The group concentrates on outreach to and evangelism of those in the porn industry, especially performers, and offers support to those wishing to leave the industry. The organization solicits donations online and offers an online support forum for individuals that are addicted to drugs, fornication, and pornography. When Lubben identifies interested individuals, she sends care packages filled with Godly literature, Bibles, Christian music, local grocery and department store gift cards, and other spiritual and practical supports. A secondary focus of Pink Cross is outreach to individuals seeking recovery from pornography addiction. Pink Cross attends pornography conventions to educate fans about how porn is not glamorous and also reaching out to porn stars and reminding them that they have options. The Pink Cross Foundation also lobbies against pornography and the adult entertainment industry. Lubben supported California legislator Charles Calderon in his effort to tax the pornographic industry by speaking to lawmakers about her experiences. Lubben describes the scene of a hardcore porn film as devoid of intimacy, and describes it as "all mechanical and beastly". She further writes that "women are vomiting off the set, and most of the actors are doing drugs and alcohol." In June 2010, she spoke to U.S. House and Senate members and their staffs in Washington DC about the damage that was done to her body from her time in the porn industry. She continues to be outspoken regarding the illegal and hazardous working conditions in the industry, with sexually transmitted diseases being a workplace safety issue and public health concern. Lubben has appeared in various international media outlets, including radio, television, and film. An overview of her life has been featured in the documentaries Traffic Control and Out of the Darkness, the latter of which was selected to be the opening film for the John Paul II Film Festival in 2011. In January 2011, Lubben released a rap/hip hop album with the proceeds going to the Pink Cross Foundation to help women and men recover from porn. The first single, titled "Killer Fantasy", features the message of a porn star speaking to the porn fan about the truth behind the adult industry.

No, no good works will do, but good works will be evidence of your faith, as you follow God's plan for your life!

  16. I am a disciple of Jesus. I associate with no single denomination while denouncing all others. I do denounce some. That is not for this conversation. So when Jesus told the woman at the well to go and sin no more, He was saying what to her if not go and sin no more?
  17. Remarriage is adultery in all circumstances unless if you lose your spouse to death. The Bible makes this clear when you study what Paul has said about divorce, marriage, and remarriage in the original languages; it's surely less clear in the English translations. So I will ask you, if what I've stated so far is true, then how can someone enter into the Kingdom of Heaven while committing unrepentant adultery through unlawful remarriage?

  19. I surely am not calling you trash. I wouldn't be spending literal hours seeking the Lord on this for you if you weren't important to me or Him. I am surely not saying you are not His either, but that also doesn't mean that everything is right in His sight and that nothing needs to ever change in your life again, do you agree? Your comfort in being a "big fat sinner" is alarming to me and truly heart breaking. We are called to be righteous and holy. Only the humble receive His grace by faith, and the humble are the ones who completely surrender their lives to the will of the work of Jesus Christ through them (Ref. James 4:6 and 1 John 2:6). Anyone who boasts in their sin and unrighteousness immediately raise a red flag for me. "I was a big fat sinner" is one thing. "I am a big fat sinner" is a very different statement. If you don't see the rejuvenating work of Jesus Christ in your life very clearly forming you into the express image of His son with old ways being rapidly replaced by new ways, I would be very cautious in pridefully raising the victory flag. Again, please don't mistake His love and kindness for that everything is right in His sight. None of us should do this. Jesus was/is so very meek, humble, and loving that Satan truly did believe that he could overthrow Jesus and take His throne. Are you looking at His meekness, humility, and love, and forgetting about His justice and holiness like Satan did? Do you have a list of excuses, just in case, for the day of judgement? Please don't forget that His bride will be spotless and without blemish by the work that has been allowed to be completed by God through them by surrendering to His will and His will alone. I would encourage you to surrender your every word and action to Him by praying without ceasing (talking with God about everything; all day, every day) and following His still soft voice all of your days and see where He takes you. It's the only way to assuredly live. The Lord only corrects the one's that are His anyway, so be of good cheer! This is not a letter of condemnation, but inspiration for clarity for moving forward in freedom in Christ. Please don't forgot that God loves even those who He condemns to Hell. He condemns because He is just. It is not about our perceived needs and desires, it is about His work of righteousness in our lives and His grace; His grace that comes through humility in heart and humility in truly and fully surrendering to Him. Does it seem like a coincidence that the Lord had me bring up the subject of divorce and remarriage not knowing at all your situation? Something that was fairly unrelated to your initial post. It is possible He is trying to minister into that area? Putting this entire situation through the filter of God's Holy Bible, it would reveal bondage to a spirit of adultery and that spirit is now tormenting you in new ways by trying to gain a deeper holding and authority. Fortunately, you have continually run to God. It is possible that this spirit was initially let in by unlawful remarriage (for your true husband is still alive)? Remember the woman at the well? Did you ignore the command to stay single outside of being widowed if separated or divorced? I can only encourage a study of the original texts with a concordance to truly understand what Paul was saying. That and praying without ceasing; following God's will. You have asked for help and responded in defiance, anger, and defensiveness with a hardness heart; in indignation. Is this how you respond to God when He attempts to deal with these situations? Your own lack on peace on this particular subject shows that your conscious is telling you that something is wrong; the heart is desperately deceitful and wicked in all things, it shouldn't be followed. The only way forward is to follow God's way forward, step by step. Patience will bring revelation. Through this revelation found through patience and seeking Him in all things, He will make all things clear. I can only encourage you to seek Him with your whole being! Never forget that it is better to enter into Heaven without a hand than to lose your entire soul in Hell. We are not called to pursue comfort; the Holy Spirit is our comforter, not the things of this world. We are called to be holy and obedient. Please, humble yourself in the poverty of spirit and seek His way forward. I pray the Lord soften your heart to what He's trying to do and show you the way forward. God bless you, in Jesus' mighty name. <3 -Daniel Be ye therefore perfect, even as your Father which is in Heaven is perfect. Matthew 5:48 "Enter through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to destruction, and many enter through it. But small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life, and only a few find it. Matthew 7:13
  20. It's hard to deny such a "coincidence" because it's not: The Lord does promise He will reveal the things done in secret and He is faithful to do just that. More importantly though, I would really encourage you to study what the Lord has had the apostle Paul teach on singleness and marriage, here's a brief overview: 1 Corinthians 7: 8 Now to the unmarried and the widows I say: It is good for them to stay unmarried, as I do. 9 But if they cannot control themselves, they should marry, for it is better to marry than to burn with passion. [I must say, don't play the "Oh, I can't control myself, bring me a spouse" game with the Lord, He will not be fooled, He knows perfectly what you are truly capable of. This has to be your first prayerful consideration.] ... 17 Nevertheless, each person should live as a believer in whatever situation the Lord has assigned to them, just as God has called them. This is the rule I lay down in all the churches. 18 Was a man already circumcised when he was called? He should not become uncircumcised. Was a man uncircumcised when he was called? He should not be circumcised. 19 Circumcision is nothing and uncircumcision is nothing. Keeping God’s commands is what counts. 20 Each person should remain in the situation they were in when God called them. 21 Were you a slave when you were called? Don’t let it trouble you—although if you can gain your freedom, do so. 22 For the one who was a slave when called to faith in the Lord is the Lord’s freed person;similarly, the one who was free when called is Christ’s slave. 23 You were bought at a price; do not become slaves of human beings. 24 Brothers and sisters, each person, as responsible to God, should remain in the situation they were in when God called them. 25 Now about virgins: I have no command from the Lord, but I give a judgment as one who by the Lord’s mercy is trustworthy. 26 Because of the present crisis, I think that it is good for a man to remain as he is.27 Are you pledged to a woman? Do not seek to be released. Are you free from such a commitment? Do not look for a wife. 28 But if you do marry, you have not sinned; and if a virgin marries, she has not sinned. But those who marry will face many troubles in this life, and I want to spare you this. 29 What I mean, brothers and sisters, is that the time is short. From now on those who have wives should live as if they do not; 30 those who mourn, as if they did not; those who are happy, as if they were not; those who buy something, as if it were not theirs to keep; 31 those who use the things of the world, as if not engrossed in them. For this world in its present form is passing away. 32 I would like you to be free from concern. An unmarried man is concerned about the Lord’s affairs—how he can please the Lord. 33 But a married man is concerned about the affairs of this world—how he can please his wife— 34 and his interests are divided. An unmarried woman or virgin is concerned about the Lord’s affairs: Her aim is to be devoted to the Lord in both body and spirit. But a married woman is concerned about the affairs of this world—how she can please her husband. 35 I am saying this for your own good, not to restrict you, but that you may live in a right way in undivided devotion to the Lord. 36 If anyone is worried that he might not be acting honorably toward the virgin he is engaged to, and if his passions are too strong and he feels he ought to marry, he should do as he wants. He is not sinning. They should get married. 37 But the man who has settled the matter in his own mind, who is under no compulsion but has control over his own will, and who has made up his mind not to marry the virgin—this man also does the right thing. 38 So then, he who marries the virgin does right,but he who does not marry her does better. 39 A woman is bound to her husband as long as he lives. But if her husband dies, she is free to marry anyone she wishes, but he must belong to the Lord. 40 In my judgment, she is happier if she stays as she is—and I think that I too have the Spirit of God. One of the greatest points to be taken from this entire passage is that if you marry this man you WILL BE BOUND TO HIM UNLESS HE DIES. He can leave you, and you cannot remarry, you will have to remain a single house wife. You can leave him, and you cannot remarry, you will have to remain a single housewife. (At least without committing unrepentant adultery and we know adulterers will not enter the Kingdom of Heaven from the book of Revelation and elsewhere in the Bible). The ONLY circumstance under which one can remarry once being married is IF the other spouse DIES! Studying these passages in the original Hebrew text makes this all the more clear as well. There are preachers on both sides of the isle on this one, but when the Lord has revealed something to you after He's led you to do the studying, you just know what you know to be true, and this is the true interpretation of the text. Interpretation is God's alone, and He was the one who revealed this to me and it as a painstaking process because it's definitely not a revelation that feels good. But that's how much God respects the covenant of marriage. And we must remember that the marriage covenant is the physical representation of the relationship between Jesus Christ and His bride; the church! So it wholehearted makes sense Our Father in Heaven is not messing around with remarriage of any kind outside of death of the spouse. This interpretation also prevents one spouse from acting in a way to cause the other spouse to leave so they can be free from the bonds of marriage to remarry as they wish as well! It all truly makes sense when we really look at it from God's perspective. But I would encourage you to humbly ask the Lord to reveal the truth of these passages to you, and follow His plan and path to that understanding His revelation for yourself as I have! I have spent many hours seeking and being taught by the Lord (in His will) on this subject and it is no coincidence He has led me to you. He wants you to understand the facts, he wants you to understand the commitment, and He wants you to understand the bond you are entering into. THEN with all of this information digested and understood (at a heart level), THEN you must seek the Lord on what He is looking for you to do. These are huge, lifelong decisions that should not be taken lightly. This man must respect your patience to allow the Lord to make all of this crystal clear to you or you should leave immediately, you are not to be pressured into such huge, lifelong decisions or any decision for that matter. I would encourage you not to move forward on any sort of greater commitment until these crystal clear revelations are brought from the Lord. The first thing you should do is release this entire situation into the Lord's hands and allow Him to truly lift it off of your heart so you can have a clear conscious, mind, soul, and spirit to understand how Jesus is looking to move forward with you (do this just by asking Jesus to take this entire situation from you, and open your heart in prayer for Him to lift it off of you)! The Lord once told me: Patience leads to revelation! Be patient with yourself. Guard your heart. ABSOLUTELY guard your virginity; it is the most valuable thing you have outside of your relationship with Jesus Christ; pre-martial sex is the GREATEST source of lifelong pain and issues! Even with ONE partner outside of marriage statistics plummet for both happiness in life, lasting marriage, and more. (YouTube the video: The Truth About Sex: Facts You Won't Believe Are True! by Stefan Molyneux) you will be astounded! But it will give you motivation to FLEE SEXUAL IMMORALITY like it's the PLAGUE! LITERALLY, LITERALLY, LITERALLY, run from the littlest sense of sexual impurity entering your life from this man or anywhere! Again, trust and seek the Lord for HIS way forward! The more you seek God for your day by day decisions (especially the small stuff) the faster this process will be, for His plan is much greater than just this situation to get you to where He wants you to be (and where you've been created to be; where you will find lasting joy, peace, goodness, kindness, gentleness, faith, peace, self-control, and love!). Be well, and may God bless you, richly, in Jesus' mighty name!!!!!!! Amen. I'm here for you if you need anything! -Daniel
