THERE IS NO REVERSE GEAR IN MARRIAGE

God bless you for taking the time to study.

TOPIC:  THERE IS NO REVERSE GEAR IN MARRIAGE

TEXT: MARK 10:10-12 

SUNDAY APRIL 16TH 

KEY VERSE: “The wife is bound by the law as long as her husband liveth; but if her husband is dead, she is at liberty to be married to whom she will; only in the Lord.” (1 Corinthians 7:39).
The law of marriage binds a husband to his wife and the wife to her husband as long as both of them are still alive. Divorce and remarriage to another person are not allowed. Whoever divorces and remarries when the marriage partner is still alive has no part in the kingdom of God. He or she is committing adultery. 
“For the woman which hath a husband is bound by the law to her husband so long as he liveth; but if the husband is dead, she is loosed from the law of her husband. So then if, while her husband liveth, she be married to another man, she shall be called an adulteress: but if the husband is dead, she is free from that law; so that she is no adulteress, though she be married to another man.” Romans 7:2-3. 
If you are married to another person apart from your first scripturally binding marriage partner, you are in a wrong relationship and must dissolve it, if you want to please God. You should go back to your first lawfully marriage partner or stay unmarried. There are those who say that adultery committed by one of the partners in a marriage can result to divorce and remarriage. This is a wrong interpretation of the scriptures. The issue being referred to here as basis of divorce is fornication, not adultery. Unfortunately, some Bible translations replace the word fornication with marital unchastely. Fornication is a sin which is committed by someone who has not yet entered into the marriage union. The word of God settles this matter that under the present dispensation, no sin can cause divorce. If adultery can, then other sins including lying or stealing can as well. They cannot be separated because the two have become one according to scripture. Those who desire to marry should study issues well so that the do not marry someone already married and get damned due to immorality. If you have married wrongly, such ungodly marriage must be dissolved.

Thought for the day:  Look well before marriage and stay on once married. 

Song for the day: When we walk with the Lord in the light of His Word

Bible reading for the day: 1 Samuel 19-21; Luke 15:11-32

For taking your time to study remain blessed. UNDERSTANDING ETERNITY WEDNESDAY MAY 10 TEXT: Psalm 90: 1 - 2 Key Verse: “The Lord is King forever and ever: the heathen are perished out of his land Psalm 10:16 People that understand eternity are always careful. Eternity means forever and ever, it means ever-lasting, ever-living, never dying. Trillion upon trillion years, eternity is still on, in fact it is life without end. There are two extreme ends of eternity: The kingdom of God called third heaven where God the Father, God the son, God the Holy Ghost, twenty-four elders, saints of God that make heaven, holy angels of God, and entire host of heaven dwell now presently; Hell-fire, where Satan, demons, and sinners that have died in their sins are presently kept. God is the One that introduced eternity. He lives forever. It is not a choice, the One who created us is forever, hence you will live forever, but what matters is where you will live eternally. Remove God from the way, then t...

Pastor Paul Rika’s Burden, Vision and Action To Reach the Unreached (2)

God's blessings will continually accompany you for dedicating time to your studies. Pastor Paul Rika’s Burden, Vision and Action To Reach the Unreached (2) Wednesday 15th October TEXT: Titus 3: 3-6   Key verse: Titus 3: 6 “Which He shed on us abundantly through Jesus Christ our Savior.” I remember I was in Sao Tome and Principe as a deeper life national overseer and I was writing the book, “Divine Revelation of God’s Holiness and Judgment.” The vision the Lord gave to Michael Sambo. I was translating it into a book, with the scriptural backups to make it a sound evangelistic book. I saw that truly the world is doomed. What will I say about those who have not known Jesus among the 7 billion people on earth; those who do not even have anything to do with Him? Do I speak of the billions in Asia without understanding of Jesus? Out of the 1.4 billion in India, they are struggling to record 150 million Christians including Catholics.  Who knows Jesus then? Even among Pentecosta...
