Subject: Can a woman divorce man: Ongoing porn? |
Bible Note: Sister, First, let me post my regrets that it took so long to get to the crux of the problem. Yet I am thankful we are here. I do not entirely agree with the censorship guidelines of this forum, whatever they are. Because now there are many that will miss the fruit that our posts have born. Sobeit. it is all God's will, amen? The end of your last post said, which will overcome? That is easy to answer. It is the one that we choose to feed. Will we choose to feed (by spending time and energy on) the side that exhibits the aroma of Christ, or the one that demands our immediate attention -which is our own ambitions? One side is light and one is darkness. One leads to life and the other leads to death. I do not want to preach to the choir but you understand that you are not responsible for your husbands actions. Only how you react to those actions. Being a man of 52 years, I know the struggles that he faces. It is the same as the fruit in the garden of Eden that spelled the downfall of our entire human race. This is the lust of the flesh and the lust of the eyes, (obvious) and (less obvious) is the pride of life, which allows the male to "conquer" the harlot in his own mind. This is why he is in denial. The Bible says the darkness hides from the light for fear of being exposed. Just as Adam and Eve hid when they heard God approach. May I suggest that you steer him to a website that deals with porn addiction on an anonymous basis? Just a suggestion, I do not have one for you but I have seen them in the past. just Google some key words. Your husband needs to be willing to let the light shine in. And stop hiding in darkness. But it is like a cancer that needs to be cut out with a knife. The initial pain is scary. By steering him to the resources that are needed, he can secretly work out his problem and maybe even be held accountable by an online pal. This is where our prayers will be most beneficial. And in return, with the Spirit's help, you may rescue him from the clutches of the enemy and he will love you all the more for it without having to know anything.. I will monitor this thread for a few days, or as long as you need some help from a christian brother. In His service and yours, keliy |
