What is your strategy for protecting yourself, your ministry and your family? Whether or not a tool like this one appeals to you or not, please be sure to have some kind of plan.
My plan is simple to never commiting adultery. Firstly...,There is nothing or no one or any pleasure worth losing my salvation for. Jesus died for my sins and paid the price for the privilege of my eternal life. Nothing on this earth is worth jeopardizing that gift. Secondly.., I would never do anything to break my husband's heart. He trusts me and I promised I would forsake ALL others till death do us part. There is no temptation worth more than eternity with Jesus and the love and respect of my husband. Life isn't that hard really. Let Jesus be your example and never break a promise to anyone you love. That includes Jesus and your spouse. Pray everyday!
There is no such thing as a private sin. Everything has consequences. Even the "thoughts" of sinning cause us to lose our personal and public joy. It's like shutters that start to dim the sparkle in our eyes. This sparkle is so very attractive to both believers and the lost. I know that this sparkle is a direct result of being free in Christ. No current regrets or blatant sin. I want this!!! Thank you God that you give us a "re" button that is called forgiveness. Thank you for consequences that if remembered or thought about help us to cling to you in the battle. Thank you for Godly friends or family that are able to speak into our lives and help us hold fast to what we want and know to be truth. Thank you for Daren's awareness of his need for you and others to keep "Sparkling" openly for you! Show us how to fight personally, privately and professionally sin that hurts all relationships and our ability to love and share your love...Amen.
Don't loose your family by committing adultery, you might loose everything, it's not worth it, follow the law of God. Don't be filled with regrets like me. Jesus is truth and the way.
This includes lust in the eyes and heart as Jesus said, if a man looks upon a woman with lust he has already committed adultery in his heart. So remember that looking lusting, thinking of it, PORN is destroying your wife, your family, your salvation it’s sin against your wife family God yourself. Don’t do it. It’s so painful it’s horrific and it destroys marriages. ❤
Thanks for talking about our vulnerability in this matter, Daren. Those are very powerful questions that can help a lot in resisting this awful kind of temptation.
Sad to say my husband's adulterous affairs for over 35 years has not caused him harm but it has caused all problems in my life as well as our children. Our two sons are serving time in prison I suffered mental emotional and financial burdens So my husband's affairs caused harm to his family whereby his life goes on untouched. I love The Lord and will continue to serve Him.
Sometimes the devil allows sinful people to live a life free of trouble, because he doesn't want them-such as your husband- turning to God. Since his life is comfortable, he doesn't see a need to leave an open jail cell. One day, it'll be too late.
Hahaha. You think God wants to destroy him because he commit adultery. You have to forgive your husband. God doesn’t kill and he will never destroy. It is only God goodness that leads men to repentance.
@@mountzionmovingstorage687 God actually corrects his children. Like any good parent… children have consequences. Never know what it’ll be but yes consequences of some kind will be in order.
My wife had affair 2019 it was traumatizing we married 20 years beautful family daughter was 12 at time- a home wrecker manipulated her I forgave and loved and had a good fight 2019 and 2020, her ap got married 2021 and was very angry and abusive. By 2022 we succumbed to resent unforgiveness and anger. She never showed remorse or tried at all, I did it all, trips, gifts, love but was too hurtful. Hurting children is the most God forgive us. I lost my family because my wife cheated , and I even tried and still lost her I can’t believe it
Very sorry to hear about this. "May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in him, so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit."
I have had more issues that I do not even know where to start since my x has been in so many adulterous affairs over the years so I have suffered and my children
Not to be taken in a literal sense He provides the attraction However the choice is theirs I myself have stayed single Even at the age of 77 Not all are suited for marriage As the divorce statistics reveal!
@@Thomas116-m2n if abandoned by an unbeliever, remarriage isn't mentioned. It just says to let the unbeliever go. Also, "sexual immorality" means fornication (read KJV), not adultery.
It says practice if you keep doing it without repentance. Jesus forgave a woman who got caught in adultery he didn't say well you got caught your condemned.
How many christians are in 2nd marriages and adultery? Jesus says only death breaks the marriage covenant and all divorce and remarriage is adultery. Mark 10:11-12, Luke 16:18, Romans 7:2-3, 1Cor 7:10-11...Jesus says to remain unmarried or get back with your spouse. There is no exception , Jesus is clear. Matt5:32, 19:9 Jesus used 2 different words and was talking about the betrothal period.
@darthjedi99 You might want to read these scriptures again...they are referring to ones that divorced their spouse to go marry someone else...which was a common occurrence then and now. It is not referring to ones who divorced for scripturally sound reasonings and later on meet and marry another. Other scripture notes that if an unbelieving spouse leaves (abandons) the marriage the brother or sister is not bound..1 Corinthians 7:15. Is not referring to only the engaged. That's just what churches and doctrines of men have programmed you to believe. Our God is a God of justice and mercy also. He hates to see his people oppressed. If a marriage is abusive...do you think our Savior would demand a victim stay bound to such a situation? Of course not. 2nd or 3rd marriages are not adultery in cases where reasons for leaving a first marriage are based in God's commands and principles. When we take the context of all scripture combined to gain an understanding of God's principles we can conclude that the legalistic thinking of all divorce except in cases of adultery being forbidden is a false teaching. Jesus was referencing men who were divorcing their wives to specifically go marry another. During Moses time they were just leaving (sending away) their wives and abandoning her for the most ridiculous reasons and Moses said if you are going to send her away give her a certificate of divorce so she can marry another because she would have had no one to care for her. Moses made a provision for the abandoned wife. Jesus was telling the Pharisees that Moses permitted them to divorce because their hearts were hard and stubborn but that simply leaving someone you promised to care for was not what he created it to be from the beginning. Jesus was telling them you can't just marry someone and send her away for any reason unless if course she has been unfaithful. It's like even today what a person says can be taken so out of context and twisted..There is not a one size fits all model regarding divorce and sadly the church's stance has led many women to their deaths because they stayed in abusive marriages thinking they could only divorce if there was adultery. The Lord I worship would never condemn such a woman to a life of loneliness by requiring her to remain single for life especially if she also has children. In fact, the Lord would care for such a woman and children by allowing another man to step in to be a husband and father. Also in the case of a man whose wife may perhaps be a substance user and has neglected marital responsibilities or put their children in harm's way and refuses to stop the destructive course..he is justified in ending the marriage contract. Believers who divorce on sound Godly principles, morals, values, and character and later on meet another are free to marry again but should do so only in the Lord (based on his principles). Read the scriptures..it's clear.
@@chosen-q8c You are misinterpreting the scriptures and therefore leading others astray from the true faith of God and giving permission to commit adultery. Scripture does not, under any circumstances, support a divorced individual getting married again while the other spouse is still living. Additionally, if the unbeliver leaves, let them go because you are not obligated to them, but it also doesn't mean you can be married again. The Ten Commandments prohibit it, and Herod, who was not a Christian, killed John the Baptist after he exposed him for being married to his brother's wife in violation of the commandment. You must overcome your loneliness, confess to God, make amends with Him and, if at all possible, your first spouse, or stay unmarried. Look at these scriptures: Malachi 2:13-16 13 And this second thing you do. You cover the Lord's altar with tears, with weeping and groaning because he no longer regards the offering or accepts it with favor from your hand. 14 But you say, “Why does he not?” Because the Lord was witness between you and the wife of your youth, to whom you have been faithless, though she is your companion and your wife by covenant. 15 Did he not make them one, with a portion of the Spirit in their union? And what was the one God seeking? Godly offspring. So guard yourselves in your spirit, and let none of you be faithless to the wife of your youth. 16 “For the man who does not love his wife but divorces her, says the Lord, the God of Israel, covers his garment with violence, says the Lord of hosts. So guard yourselves in your spirit, and do not be faithless.” 11 Should not divorce. Christ’s exception in a case of fornication (Matthew 5:32; 19:9) is not mentioned; but Paul is not composing a full treatise on the subject. If two Christians who have separated find they cannot happily live a single life, the only course properly open to them is to be reconciled. Remain single. Remarriage is excluded while the other spouse is alive (cf. Romans 7:3). Separated partners are thus still subject to church discipline; they are not expelled from the fellowship. Romans 7:3 English Standard Version 3 Accordingly, she will be called an adulteress if she lives with another man while her husband is alive. But if her husband dies, she is free from that law, and if she marries another man she is not an adulteress. Mark 6:16-18-16 But when Herod heard of it, he said, “John, whom I beheaded, has been raised.” 17 For it was Herod who had sent and seized John and bound him in prison for the sake of Herodias, his brother Philip's wife, because he had married her. 18 For John had been saying to Herod, “It is not lawful for you to have your brother's wife.” Hebrews 13:4 4 Let marriage be held in honor among all, and let the marriage bed be undefiled, for God will judge the sexually immoral and adulterous. Matthew 19:9 And I say to you: whoever divorces his wife, except for sexual immorality, and marries another, commits adultery.” Jesus said, Matthew 16:4 states: "An evil and adulterous generation seeks for a sign, but no sign will be given to it except the sign of Jonah.”
Many people, including people claimining to be devout Christians, are in second marriages, and it is difficult to deal with what is happening in the family (one of my parents) and the community. You are correct in saying divorce and remarriage is adultery as scripture does not, under any circumstances, support a divorced individual getting married again while the other spouse is still living. Malachi 2:13-16 13 And this second thing you do.

May his eyes be opened and may he turn from darkness to light and from the power of satan to God, may he receive forgiveness of sins and a place among those sanctified by faith in Christ Jesus. (based on Acts 26.18)
The nutshell is that he would avoid spending time alone with a woman other than his wife. And there was, and is, a lot of pushback against it, even from Christians.
Billy Graham went even further in that he was not even alone with his daughter - as to not even give the appearance of impropriety. This rule will - for the most part - keep you safe. But even Jesus was so liberal as to drink and to be left (almost) alone with a woman. My wife and I take a different view in that we have a 1 Cor 7 definition of marriage. This being if the marriage fails then celibacy for life.
What am I doing to protect myself is go to Jesus and pray to my Lord to Keep me from Temptations and keep me from evil and He has taken my sins away, because I believe in Lord Jesus finished work and His power in Heaven that I can do all things through Christ and that is hear His words to keep me from the wilders of the evil one and Lord Jesus has my back and keeps me from it all! I trust in His Faith to keep me safe at all times. I don't rely on other people, I rely on Lord Jesus in prayer to keep me away from those Temptations, and He has since I walked away from evil life, I was living almost 24 years ago. I love my Lord and Savior and know He is my first love and my last and soon He will be coming to rapture us up to that Manion in the sky, with my brothers and sisters and being Happily living with Lord Jesus Christ for eternity!
What don't you people understand about Lord Jesus paying it all with His finished works on the cross when The Holy Spirit comes on you and shows you this fact in Lord Jesus words in His Bible that once we were without Lord Jesus, but then we are reborn into the Holy Spirit and we live in Lord Jesus now when He was the sacrificial Lamb of God that the only way to the Father in Heaven is by Lord Jesus Christ going to the cross for our sins and shed His blood for us that believe in His finished works, because our works couldn't cover a fly's life let alone our lives. Jesus told us we can do no works to be saved, that is why He had to, the perfect Lamb of God Almighty paid for the wages of sin and whomever believes in Him that sent Him and paid the price you will be saved for everlasting life. That is why Lord Jesus said it was Good News, do you really think that would be Good news to hear you also have to pay for your own wages of sin without Lord Jesus doing it for you! Boy, you are being led by Satan if you believe that! You are a scoffer and don't write to me anymore. I pray you get saved, because that is what Lord Jesus tells us to do pray for you to get saved! Amen, Amen!
2 people each from the opposite sex who agree to marry are not committing adultery when doing so if one or both sets of parents are against that man's choice of mate. It says in the bible that is true. Time will tell if a man in that situation will be able to withstand Satan's attacks against his marriage more so than towards other marriages because he wants to keep Christian communities negave in malice divided.

What don't you people understand about Lord Jesus paying it all with His finished works on the cross when The Holy Spirit comes on you and shows you this fact in Lord Jesus words in His Bible that once we were without Lord Jesus, but then we are reborn into the Holy Spirit and we live in Lord Jesus now when He was the sacrificial Lamb of God that the only way to the Father in Heaven is by Lord Jesus Christ going to the cross for our sins and shed His blood for us that believe in His finished works, because our works couldn't cover a fly's life let alone our lives.
Jesus told us we can do no works to be saved, that is why He had to, the perfect Lamb of God Almighty paid for the wages of sin and whomever believes in Him that sent Him and paid the price you will be saved for everlasting life. That is why Lord Jesus said it was Good News, do you really think that would be Good news to hear you also have to pay for your own wages of sin without Lord Jesus doing it for you! Boy, you are being led by Satan if you believe that! You are a scoffer and don't write to me anymore. I pray you get saved, because that is what Lord Jesus tells us to do pray for you to get saved! Amen, Amen!
2 people each from the opposite sex who agree to marry are not committing adultery when doing so if one or both sets of parents are against that man's choice of mate. It says in the bible that is true. Time will tell if a man in that situation will be able to withstand Satan's attacks against his marriage more so than towards other marriages because he wants to keep Christian communities negave in malice divided.
Jesus expanded on that in Mathew 5:27-28.
Does that go for both the husband and the wife or just the wife gets crucified for it??!??!?!?!!???

Horrible evil to DESTROY OTHERS LIVES!
Being away from your wife a week? makes you vulnerable geez how high is your drive ? I can see months or more okay..
