ADULTERY - Repent, or You Will Never Be Forgiven

Adultery is a sin which leads to hell. It is my duty as a minister to warn you, so that your blood will not be on my hands.

1 Corinthians 6:9 Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind,

Hebrews 13:4 Marriage is honourable in all, and the bed undefiled: but whoremongers and adulterers God will judge.

SHALL NOT INHERIT the kingdom of God - GOD WILL JUDGE

What does that mean? If you do not inherit the kingdom of God, does it mean you will be in a state of limbo? No, there are only two places to go. Either in the Kingdom of God, or in the caverns of hell. GOD WILL JUDGE - Anyone who comes under the judgment of God is sent to hell, because ALL HAVE SINNED. So - you need mercy, not judgment. And you won’t get mercy if you are an adulterer. Mercy and Judgment are opposites. If you have one, you cannot have the other.

Now WHAT is Marriage, so that such a breakdown causes a person to be sent to hell? Is it in the power of a priest or a pastor to declare "Man and Wife", therefore determine whether one is sent to hell or heaven? No. Or can a Government Officer in the case of Civil Marriage be vested with such eternal powers? Never.

Marriage is a PHYSICAL ACT of taking the VIRGINITY of a woman, then she becomes your wife. How many of you are “married” by a priest (or in the Registry Office) to a woman who is not a virgin? Then your “marriage” is null and void. It has got nothing to do with being Born Again, or being a new creation. A woman is still your wife, irrespective of the new birth. TO PROVE THIS look at

1 Corinthians 7:12 But to the rest speak I, not the Lord: If any brother hath a wife that believeth not, and she be pleased to dwell with him, let him not put her away.

13 And the woman which hath an husband that believeth not, and if he be pleased to dwell with her, let her not leave him.

14 For the unbelieving husband is sanctified by the wife, and the unbelieving wife is sanctified by the husband: else were your children unclean; but now are they holy.

15 But if the unbelieving depart, let him depart. A brother or a sister is not under bondage in such cases: but God hath called us to peace.

16 For what knowest thou, O wife, whether thou shalt save thy husband? or how knowest thou, O man, whether thou shalt save thy wife?

So we see that a person is still married, even if he then becomes a new believer! He is still married if he is an “Unbeliever”! You are still married to the woman you took virginity from, even if “you were not saved” at the time.

MERCY AVAILABLE ONLY ON REPENTANCE

In the text we see “ADULTERERS, GOD WILL JUDGE” we are to understand it means a PERSISTENT Adulterer. Many have committed adultery, but no longer. These can have mercy. The Judgment of God only extends to those who persist in it, and do not give it up.

This is a man-made religiousity, made up by man to help combat fornication, nothing more.

This smells of Catholicism all over it.

Mind explaining this? I never heard this concept before.

Thanks!

I think it is possible for a born again believer to commit adultery and i'm sure everyone has done it in their heart already. But i don't know any born again believer who would not repent of it sooner or later unless they didn't have the holy spirit. Your assuming that someone would continue in it. Why does hell and heaven depend on our actions over what christ has done and us submitting to that truth completely. Jesus's death was not for part of our sins but for all of them. But the truth is that a born again believer will repent even if it takes a mighty hand of God to do so. Even let satan torture the person physically until they repent. A righteous man call fall 7 times and will get back up every time. A wicked person will continue in it. Don't underestimate the power of the conviction of the holy spirit and the chastizing of our lord, he will bring his child back somehow, if not he will bring him home. Adultery is a terrible offense and lusting is too. But our Lord will finish the good work he began in you, this is not the old testament where the the holy spirit didn't abide in the humans, and they fell away off into their own persistent will. But now Gods law shall be written in their hearts through his son Jesus Christ and he will make them obedient to him through his spirit.

I think Krispy was talking about Lots daughters possibly?(incest?)And made a typo error???????

no problem, we love you still.

Marriage is a PHYSICAL ACT of taking the VIRGINITY of a woman, then she becomes your wife. This is what is meant by “God making the two into one flesh” (Matthew 19:5). It is NOT by taking a mere ”vow”, it is by a PHYSICAL ACT. How many of you are “married” by a priest (or in the Registry Office) by taking a vow, to a woman who is not a virgin? Then your “marriage” is null and void. Four points to note:

1. VIRGINITY respects a Woman, not a man. We never hear of the Virgin Joseph. Only the Virgin Mary.

2. Marriage is FOUNDED ON VIRGINITY. Several Scriptures IN THE KING JAMES BIBLE prove this, both in the Old Testament (Exodus 22:16 and Deuteronomy 22:28-29), and the New Testament (1 Corinthians Chapter 7, read verses 28, 34 and 36).

3. Divorce is tantamount to Adultery. Jesus Christ himself teaches this (Matt. 5:32 - Matt. 19:3-9 - Luke. 16:18 - Mark. 10:2-12)

4. It has got nothing to do with being Born Again, or being a new creation. A woman is still your wife, irrespective of the new birth.

etc.. etc...

I have only been married to one woman but she was married before she and I were. She has a son that she and I raised from the age of two. I have previously referred to him on this forum as my forty eight year old son. In some of the more base religions my wife and I were not forgiven at the time we were saved even though they claim all the nasty vile things they did were all forgiven. Go figure!

My bad... how embarrassing! Oh boy! lol...
Hey, listen, when I teach I gaff all the time. My wife is right there afterwards to point them all out for me!!

My face is red.

Somehow I think I got mixed up in my mind about Noah getting drunk and his son seeing his "nakedness", and the story about Lott.

Krispy, we all make mistakes....but you did have me scratch my memory of trying to figure out what you were saying! At least your post was not three pages long. :-)

God bless and take care!

The errors I perceive.

1. Pre-marital sex is a sin, where "pre-marital" means "before making a vow" by way of church wedding, priest blessing, or signatures on a paper.

2. That "fornication" means the above - it rather means, having sex with a non-virgin. Technically, Fornication comes from the greek word "porno" which is commonly known as "the display of a woman in sex to a man who is not her husband ". Biblically, it means a woman having two husbands - where the Pharisees retorted at Jesus suggesting they had another father besides Abraham, they stated - "We are not children of fornication"

3. The errors developing from the above. When Jesus says, "you cannot get a divorce, saving for fornication". People have said this to mean, if your spouse has sex with another person, this gives you the right to divorce. NO. The truth has been turned inside out, with this interpretation. The truth is, You can NEVER divorce. You can only divorce if the woman was never your wife in the first place, ie, she was not a virgin, which is why Jesus says, divorce is permissible in the case of fornication.

4. Fornication is seen as the CARDINAL sin - which is another error. This belief comes from seeing fornication as so bad, as to warrant dividing asunder what God has joined together. Naturally, many errors diverge out of the one fundamental mistake of forgetting that MARRIAGE = VIRGINITY

RIGHTLY DIVIDING THE TRUTH

Regarding Hosea, your reasoning would appear plausible, except that Hosea was a singular case, much like Isaiah is told to walk naked on the street:

Isaiah 20:2 At the same time spake the LORD by Isaiah the son of Amoz, saying, Go and loose the sackcloth from off thy loins, and put off thy shoe from thy foot. And he did so, walking naked and barefoot.

Is the bible teaching us to walk naked on the street? In the same way, is the Bible teaching us to marry a wife of whoredoms, as Hosea?

No, in fact the Bible is teaching us to do the very opposite:

1 Corinthians 6:15 Know ye not that your bodies are the members of Christ? shall I then take the members of Christ, and make them the members of an harlot? God forbid.

Hosea's "wife" is only called his wife, because marriage can sometimes less strictly be defined as having sex, whether with a harlot, or indeed with anyone:

1 Corinthians 6:16 What? know ye not that he which is joined to an harlot is one body? for two, saith he, shall be one flesh.

The cases where Jesus proposes divorce is the situation where a man is married in this less strict sense.

Marriage is a PHYSICAL ACT of taking the VIRGINITY of a woman, then she becomes your wife.

This thread is coming dangerously close to being locked. Proceed with discretion.

Rightly said by Paul West of locking this. I think, as others do, that the comments made here (esp. by "bible school") are disturbing. I dont agree with these on many a time.

Hi

I don't even think what "Bible school" is talking about is "Law" either.
