Subject: living conditions while married |
Bible Note: godslilchild: 1 Corinthians 7:5 "Do not deprive each other except by mutual consent and for a time, so that you may devote yourselves to prayer. Then come together again so that Satan will not tempt you because of your lack of self-control." NIV. A married couple not living together by choice is not Biblical and sinful. Even couples that have to separate because of work transfers are taking a huge risk. We live in a time that a wedding ring means nothing to those on the prowl for "sexual recreation". If there is no way to avoid being separated, like military service, then each must be celibate until they come back together. Too often temptation comes when we least expect it. No one is exempt from temptation. Scripture says God will provide a way of escape from temptation. Trust in marriage is vital and needs protection at all cost. Being separated is a very serious risk and no marriage can exist while living apart by choice because you can't get along. justme |
