Speak With The Unction Of God
Manage episode 433356796 series 2929394
There are many misconceptions on divorce. The law had a provision for a divorce in the case of a maid or representation of a woman to be virginal, it was a matter of contract. Adultery is to be forgiven.
Be child-like. Deny yourself. Protect innocence. We need regeneration .

83: Jesus And The Little Children
Matthew 19:13-15; Mark 10:13-16; Luke 18:15-17
Some small children and infants were brought to Jesus and he was asked to bless them. His disciples rebuked those who had brought them.
This displeased Jesus greatly. He said to his disciples:
“Suffer the little children to come unto me, and forbid them not. For of such is the kingdom of God. Verily I say unto you, ‘Whosoever shall not receive the kingdom of God as a little child, he shall not enter therein.’”
And Jesus took them up in his arms, put his hands upon them, and blessed them.

82: Jesus Speaks Concerning Divorce
Matthew 19:1-12; Mark 10:1-12
Pharisees came to Jesus and asked, testing him:
“Is it lawful for a man to put away his wife?”
Jesus replied with a question, saying:
“What did Moses command you?”
The Pharisees replied to Jesus, saying:
“Moses suffered to write a bill of divorcement and put her away.”
Jesus replied to the Pharisees:
“For the hardness of your heart he wrote you this precept. But from the beginning of the creation God made them male and female. For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and cleave to his wife; and they twain shall be one flesh; so then they are no more twain, but one flesh. What therefore God hath joined together, let not man put asunder.”
Later, when Jesus was alone with his disciples, they asked him again about the matter of divorce. He replied, saying:
“Whosoever shall put away his wife, and marry another, committeth adultery against her. And if a woman shall put away her husband and be married to another, she committeth adultery.”
