Bible Question:
Greetings in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ. I would like to know what the bible says about children born out of wedlock .To be open,my husband engaged himself in adulterous life and out of it he got 2 kids.Early this month he gave his life to Jesus.However he is adamant and he told me that he has to keep the woman and me as his wives because we both have his children.I told him God does not condone polygamy and i as a believer i cannot allow a second wife in my marriage as God intention in marriage is one man one wife. Now the question is ,as a born again christain,forgiven of all his past sins what is he supposed to do with the children of the other woman.What is the bible teachings regarding this issue.Help me so that i can help my husband spiritually for him to gain an intimacy relationship with God. Thankyou. Yours in Christ, Alice Chege ellieschege@yahoo.co.uk |
Bible Answer: Dear Alice: Hi , Im Daniel Abraham had a wife, and then their was his mistress, "Hagar" He did indeed provide for his kids, and even ismael still benifited from the inheritage. but his duty was to Sarah, and remember, Hagar was sent away . Your husbands offspring is still his responsiblity,, but he should not be part of this other womens life ,, and if he is indeed bornagain, and spends time in prayer seeking truth, Im confident the Lord will verify this to him.. If its ok, Id like to put this on my prayer list for next 10 days and keep you in prayer coverage . your bro Daniel |
