they all go against what i feel in my heart when i am wronged. god has shown us how to respond in these difficult events. but love will cover and bring forth. if your like me, there are times i want to only love when people deserve it. but that is why jesus said these words. and it is the correct way to love.

the israelites were coming out of the world. everything they were taught was through egypt and its customs. god brought them out of egypt to instruct them on how to live while they were in the desert and before the went into the promised land.they had to be taught how to respect other people and their things. to honor them.i believe this law starts within the individual and governs them throughout their lives. sometimes you will need court to decide since how not everyone is taught to respect others or their things.

we should honor and elevate our vows and commitments. if we would do this,our lives would become more simpiler, and the respect and trustworthy level would shoot through the roof. most people desire to feel secure, and for us to honor our word, gives great relief to a world that shudders. not everyone can handle this and they will bite and snap at you.so remeber whose word you honor and to give it back to him for his glory.

first, be a listener. don't run off at the mouth from our own experience. let the hurt come out. and pray so the lord would hear and ask for words to give. wait patiently and when asked what to do, then give the word of god and see if you can pray for that person right then and there. then continually lift that person to the lord.

no, if that were true, we would lose our salvation every time we sin. look, we are blow- its, and for sure god knows how we go astray everyday. here i say i love you lord, yet i put my brother down, or i'm working for god yet i'm in front of the holy spirit. seems to me when we made that vow to the lord and asked him in our hearts, we were sure we wouldn't become unfaithful to our word, yet we are everyday.you know i've been told that it takes two to build a marriage, and that is true, but if you look at it , it also takes two to destroy one. so whose to blame for the unfaithfulness? we do have a choice to expose a sin or cover a sin. and if you read the story of noah and his sons, two of them decided to act in love and with forgiveness. and that my friends will bring a sinner to their knees, in gods timing.

because there was no way out. they had to decide can i live with this woman for all my life and a day?and you know there will always be a prettier one, or nicer one or so on. and the seriousness behind our vows, man all us men don't like to be serious, we enjoy casual and kicking back. we don't like to think about these things. so they for sure understood these words.

not at all.it actually held the man accoutable for his wicked heart.look, god wants us to take our vows seriously, let your yes be yes and your no be no, there is no room for maybe. it is all or nothing. there is no half giving of yourself to your mate. and the only exception is unfaithfulness. now this is a word that really needs to be defined. evenso, god would want us to see our mate in jesus' hands rather than our own. we are coveters, and with all blessings we should hand them back to god for his glory. for all we would do is ruin them our way.

no, i don't think that you need to be a christian to become one flesh.all we have is our word, or vow, or commitment, god does all the rest, so it is a natural law.....100%

i don't think he sided with anyone, for he knew what was in man...i think he brought them to the truth, regardless of who they were or what they thought. it's obvious they were stuck on i'm right and your wrong, and vice versa.man cannot interpret gods word. the holy spirit must do this, we make big mistakes by thinking we have the answers, and everyone else is wrong.look how jesus takes them outside their law, all the way back to the garden. that must of crossed some hairs! and even when they thought they had him cornnered, he ripped them with their hard hearts.jesus wasn't concerned so much for divorce, he is encouraging unity. he wants us to stay true to our vows, let yes be yes, and no be no. and he understands how adultry hurts beyond anguish. and he knows it is hard for us to trust anyone.

we need to become watchmen, taking a post and be clear of who the enemy is. we must pray that the holy spirit would speak and fill us that we may stay awake in this vulnerable world. if we think we can love in our own means, we err, for our love requires something in return. gods love is poured out without this requirement.

first, i would pray that god would give me the words to say, and that he would allow me to have ears to hear, that i may listen for the cry of help and be very sensitive to it. the most important bit of counceling to me is to bring them to the cross. let them see the lord beaten , bloody and bruised, crying out to the father to forgive them for they know not what they do. help them understand that jesus died for all our sins, and that if we would lay them down at jesus feet, and ask the lord to take them, that he would, and that he would also forgive us and fill us for his good pleasure. then i would warn them to remember who took their sin, and to constantly go to jesus for wisdom and understanding, and to be emptied of all self, and be refilled with the holy spirit. and also warn them about filling their minds with worldly advice or foolish material and encourage them to read and meditate on the word of god. and if they would, the trust in the lord jesus would grow and the cravings we once had would no longer would dominate us.

it's not love. you know pride appeals to the empty head, and sexual immorality appeals to the empty heart.there are no victims in this, that would be a cop out. those who participate in these acts are working out their own pleasure, for themselves. they made the choice to neglect god, and to reject him.

i believe it starts with our love for god. we can still have **** in our marriage if our relationship with god is amiss. we must hand over all our desires unto god, otherwise we are gonna love, but not really love, and we will be let down emotionally and blame each other because we first didn't hand over the very seat of our emotions.

the point of similarity is all about me.my desires, my way, right now. the difference is one acts outwardly and one acts inwardly.how we break the 10th is we don't care about love. we just need our quick fix, and we won't settle until we get it.

the attitudes and intentions of our hearts

i think jesus was saying if you dwell on it, it will just get bigger and uglier.be quick to apologize and forgive. don't make a mountain out of a mole hill. it is the very root of bitterness that will ruin us.

we are not free or we are holding someone else captive as well. the only way to get ourselves free is through forgiveness. we have been given the gift of forgiveness through jesus and we should freely give it quickly to others no matter what. no one said it was easy, but when you look to the cross and see your savior forgiving you, it makes it possible. you know, i really think the key word here is remember. the holy spirit will bring to us those who we have hurt or have been hurt by. if we made a list of all we know we have hurt, it would take a lifetime to search them out and besides, we wouldn't even cover those we didn't know we offended. so lets let the spirit remind us of who to go too.

it's like amputating anothers spirit. look, we all want to be accepted and loved, but when we rip into someone else because we have no self control,we can deeply hurt and isolate people by the bushels. god wants us to reconize the long term effect,anger ruins everything in its path,and sometimes there is no remedy for its cancer.

that would be like having a dictionary with only words and no definitions.you know, the pharisees played the part,looked the part, in fact, added quite abit to the part, but they had no life in their part. and without the life, it was just empty jargon. unless we yeild to the spirit of god, we too, will play the part, look the part, and add quite abit to the part, but have no life in the part.

everybody, whether a believer or non, must see jesus. and we are responsible for the world. we are to live out this life that is manifested in us, where ever we may be.we dare not concern ourselves with our own glory,for we cannot handle this properly. i love pauls words in phllipians 3, one thing i do, forgetting what is behind and strainning toward what is ahead. man, to let go of this world and to let god be glorified whether we are liked or not, is the answer for every question in my life. suffering brings me closer to a loving god and opens me up to love others as i trust him.so i don't consentrate on glory while i am here. my thoughts are on the cross.thats where i try to bring everyone.first the cross, then the glory.

bringing glory unto ourselves. i believe jesus was telling us not to let our right hand know what our left hand was doing so others would glorify god and not ourselves. we sure have the tendacy to say "look at me or what i did". so lets be careful of who really gets the glory.

they become seperated and distanced from god, all that they was supposed to influence with the love of god, is now influencing them with the love of the world. it would seem that a believer would know immediatly,it is over time they harden their heart and cannot hear the spirit anymore. they can however, repent and come back." if my people who are called by my name would humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways then i will hear from heaven and will forgive their sin and will heal their land

psalm 119:9-16 pretty much says it all. those who are willing to give up everything to love god with all their heart,with all their mind,and with all their strength will know god and gods ways will be manifest to others like precious fruit.read proverbs chapter 2:1-5 or micah 6:8, they will tell you the same. you know its funny to me when people go looking for god. and why i say that is god is the one trying to get our attention.he's been there all the time, all we need to do is listen and we will hear god speaking to us.chronic sinners love the darkness more than the light. they love their sin more than god. the love the pleasure sin gives them, they love instant and temporary fixes rather than getting to the root of the problem.noone likes to be refined at first,but in time , we start asking god to refine us to get these impurities out.

have you ever drug sandpaper across your skin or your finger nails down a chalkboard?when we want gods way of doing things more than anything else, we find that we have fewer friends, shorter conversations, and we get the isolation treatment whether up close or behind our backs.but god promises us that he will fill us so we will endure and be refreshed even when we can't find a friend with skin on.

it is impossible for the world to be humble and lowly in spirit. oh yeah, we all try to look the part in many ways, but without walking in the spirit, we are all just pharisees, playing the part in front of man. what is sad is we get away with pretending at times in front of non believers. but with true humility, we can help, encourage,lift up,and love others in a way that runs without limits, both recieving and giving, and it is all done unto god.
