Bible Question: I have two children with a man that I am not married to. We live together and considers ourselves a family. We want to get married but financial reseasons are somewhat holding us back. What does the bible say about this situation? |
Bible Answer: I believe that you already know what you should do, that you should be married, that the Bible tells us that sexual union outside of marraige is wrong, and that even to be a family, we need to have the commitment and blessing brought about through formal wedlock. Gal 2:20 I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me. Do you now live by faith, or by fear? Are you afraid to obey scripture because of what you think might happen financially? Pro 3:5 Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. 6 In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths. Lean not to your own understanding. Thats a thing about people. We have the tendancy to think we know for sure how something will happen. God may be testing your commitment to serve Him, and to obey Him, by allowing these seeming roadblocks to be in your way. You will never, ever, ever, be the worse for obeying our Lord Jesus. Even if circumstances seem more adverse, well, God is using all of these things to weed out of us our own life, so that we will be filled with His life, which is much better. Be strong in the Lord, and the power if His might! Love in Christ, Mark |
