“Questions Answered” part 2

1. Your spouse will pay justly when she goes before the Lord; however, as the book of Romans tells us in chapter 2, we are not to judge others. What she is doing and teaching the children is wrong, the word tells us that all will have the opportunity to know God, this is where you will have to find Trust in your Heavenly Father, and when they are in your company, teach by example, and there is no age on learning. We are constantly learning till the day we die.


2. You may have lost your children in a court room, but you didn’t lose what God loaned to you, you will always be their dad here on earth, so you have to be the good role model and let go of all the hurt and anger, even to the point you blame the children some as well. Let the children know that you love them unconditionally, just as your Heavenly Father loves you.

3. Being part of a church is one thing, coming to the Lords house and receiving is another. I believe that the Church, of all places, should be a Sanctuary. It should be a truly safe place, where people that are lonely, hurting, confused or broken-hearted can come to be comforted, encouraged and restored....and be loved back to wholeness. I believe that the Church should be a place where the power of God's Spirit and His love flows forth in worship and ministry to His people - to bring life, health and wholeness to every area of our lives. Where we can feel free to be ourselves, where we can be totally honest with God, with ourselves and with others. A place to be free to reach out and help others, and to be helped in return when we sometimes find ourselves in need. The Church should be a place where we can pray and sincerely seek God's grace, His wisdom and His forgiveness - to be changed to look more and more like our Lord Jesus Christ. That's how I see the Church, and praise God You don’t go to church to be seen, if the Lords word is not being taught in this house, then you need to leave and find another. When the children receive the Lord into their hearts they too will see what you already know. You have been thru many years of pain and suffering and it has none gone unseen, for the Lord see’s your tears, and sleepless nights. When you read about divorce in the Bible you will see that God loves the one who remains loyal to Him thru it all and wants to keep their marriage intact. So he knows your heart.

4. In reference to the teaching of the Ten Commandments, and telling your children its ok, those that taught and sinned are good people. This is where you can teach those Gods word and the Importance of prayer for the lost sheep and their souls. Never teach your child that God doesn’t forgive. This same preacher may himself be at war with something. This is punishable twice because he is representing God when he stands in front of that pulpit.

5. You walked out of church during a dedication service for your grandchild because the preacher was bragging about the things the step dad have done, when you know how he walked into your life and walked out with your wife. This is a sin that that individual has to deal with. First he committed adultery by marrying a woman who was previously married. Does this mean he won’t ever receive forgiveness from God? No, he has to turn his life into a life of living and serving God, his life will not be easy, the word tells us this. He like the rest of us will stand before God one day and answer for all our sins. However you cannot continue to judge him and assume he doesn’t know God now. That relationship is between him and God. Was it right for you to walk out? From the moral sense of where it was going, it was right of you to walk out, for it does not sound like it was about dedicating a child to God. We hope that you have offered this child up to God to watch over and protect.

6. Trust….Trust is hard….one person that you can trust with everything is your Father in Heaven. Trust Him to lead you in the right direction, in all things gives thanks. Pray to Him every minute you have. The story of King Asa teaches us, in all situations of life, to make the Lord our first trust. When you trust God first, He will guide you in your trust issues.

7. For those that have said get over it and move on, do they know Christ. If so you might want to read what the Lord has to say about when others do us wrong. In the course of living, we are often hurt by others. Holding in hurt feelings over months or even years, is very stressful and can cause minor and major diseases. Learning to forgive significant hurts and then move on is an important part of being healthy, in both mind and body. When you face your pain (and the person who hurt you), you can end the "forgiving crisis" and lead a healthier, happier life. The Bible is very specific about forgiving adultery. The gospel of John shares an occurrence of a woman caught in adultery. John 8:1-11 says, ". . . Jesus went to the Mount of Olives. At dawn he appeared again in the temple courts; where all the people gathered around him, and he sat down to teach them. The teachers of the law and the Pharisees brought in a woman caught in adultery. They made her stand before the group and said to Jesus, 'Teacher, this woman was caught in the act of adultery. In the Law Moses commanded us to stone such women. Now what do you say?' They were using this question as a trap, in order to have a basis for accusing him. "But Jesus bent down and started to write on the ground with his finger. When they kept on questioning him, he straightened up and said to them, 'If any one of you is without sin, let him be the first to throw a stone at her.' Again he stooped down and wrote on the ground. "At this, those who heard began to go away one at a time, the older ones first, until only Jesus was left, with the woman still standing there. Jesus straightened up and asked her, 'Woman, where are they? Has no one condemned you?" "'No one, sir,' she said. "'Then neither do I condemn you,' Jesus declared. 'Go now and leave your life of sin.'"



My dear friend it’s time for you to live your life with God at the head of your house. You have to be able to move on, that cave you are in is dark; it’s time to move towards the light, as I recently wrote about. Enjoy life and the love the Lord has for you
