First of all,
let me say that I believe in the Scriptures
as the authority for direction to mankind, not self-made
organizations as the Protestants,
Roman
Catholics and Orthodox.
I believe in the righteous exercise of elders,
bishops
and deacons
as the Apostle Paul taught, and the theological and physical
purity of officials
in the house of the living God, the ground and pillar of the
truth.
However, if religious organization truly
followed the early church apostles and prophets, they would
expose the sins of those who make mistakes and not follow them.
Nevertheless, when you look at the corporate entities claiming
extension of the first church authority, you find they err at
their top levels and hold doctrines of demons. The true church
is the body of believers who follow Christ
and the Scriptures, not the institutions of men.
Murder and remarriage-adultery horror of sin
rating
The subject
today is the harm of murder and remarriage: Murder was a death
penalty sin in the OT. and remarriage is considered adultery
(Mt. 19.9) in the NT. Jesus himself said, “And
I say unto you, Whosoever shall put away his wife, except
it be
for fornication, and shall marry another, committeth adultery:
and whoso marrieth her which is put away doth commit adultery.”
(Mt. 19.9) Adultery in the OT. was a death penalty sin even as
murder. So considering both covenants and the death penalty
each horrible sin brought, and the audacity of the wayward
Orthodox churches condoning and even promoting their
man-demon-made term, “penitential” remarriage, how
do they think the once death-penalty sin of adultery can ever
be justified any more than the murders of Georgian gangster
Joseph Stalin. (Patristic Nectar,
00:01:59-00:15:05)
“He that smiteth a man,
so that he die, shall be surely put to death” (Ex.
21.12); And the man that committeth adultery with
another man’s
wife, even he
that committeth adultery with his neighbour’s wife, the
adulterer and the adulteress shall surely be put to death”
(Le. 20.10); “If a man be found lying with a woman
married to an husband, then they shall both of them die,
both the man
that lay with the woman, and the woman: so shalt thou put away
evil from Israel. (Dt. 22.22)
That brings
the question, what would have been the more deserving of the
death penalty as to the life and death moral of ancient times,
or to put it a better way, what is more righteous, the
penitential remarriages sin of church promoted adultery or the
murders of Stalin. Neither, my friend!
God will never justify
murder or remarriage-adultery. When such sins go unchecked, the
results multiply. Nations become needlessly ruined through
church negligence and public passivity.
Teachings of demons
within organized religion and canon
“Orthodox teachings on remarriage
“The
Orthodox Church condemns sin. But at the same time, she also
desires to help those who suffer from sin. Thus, she allows
second (and in extremely rare cases, third) marriages, as a
pastoral concession in the context of oikonomia*.
As the apostle Paul says concerning the unmarried and widows:
“If they can not control themselves, they should marry”
(1 Cor. 7, 9). There is, in other words, a close relationship
in every dimension between divorce and the possibility of
remarriage. However, this does not mean that
the dissolving of a marriage relationship automatically grants
someone the right to enter into another marriage. In general,
the Orthodox Church approaches second marriages with a sense of
reluctance. Thus, it is incorrect to say that any Orthodox
Christian can marry two (or even three) times.
“Orthodox
canon law can permit a second and even a third marriage out of
pastoral care, but strictly forbids a fourth. Typically, if one
member of the couple is previously unmarried, a regular
marriage service can still be celebrated in the Orthodox
Church. However, if both are previously divorced or widowed
within the Church, the second
(penitential) rite of marriage is used.” (Saint John
The Evangelist Orthodox Church, “Orthodox Teachings”).
Note the distortion and lie of
“pastoral concession” implying, “(1 Cor. 7[:
]9)” tolerates remarriage. False! Pastors who say such
things put themselves and their agenda above the written word
of God.
"7 For
I would that all men were even as I myself. But every man hath
his proper gift of God, one after this manner, and another
after that. 8
I say
therefore to the unmarried and widows, It is good for them if
they abide even as I. 9
But if they
cannot contain, let them marry: for it is better to marry than
to burn.” (KJV, 1 Cor. 7.7-9)
Paul is speaking specifically in v. 8 to the
“unmarried and widows”. An unmarried person, a
virgin, or widow is not under the law of marriage:
“1 Know
ye not, brethren, (for I speak to them that know the law,) how
that the law hath dominion over a man as long as he liveth? 2
For the
woman which hath an husband is bound by the law to
her
husband so long as he liveth;
but if the husband be dead, she is loosed from the law of
her
husband. 3
So then if,
while her
husband liveth, she be married
to another man, she shall be called an adulteress: but if her
husband be dead, she is free from that law; so that she is no
adulteress, though she be married to another man.” (Rom.
7.1-3)
An unmarried person (virgin) or widow is permitted
to marry, such is not under the marriage law (Rom. 7.2).
However, once an unmarried person marries and divorces (1 Cor.
7. 25-28), they should not seek another marriage:
“27 Art
thou bound unto a wife? seek not to be loosed. Art thou loosed
from a wife? seek not a wife.” (1 Cor. 7.27).
Now, note, verse 1 Cor. 7:10 begins the Apostle
Paul's message unto the married:
10
And unto
the married I command, yet
not I, but the Lord, Let not
the wife depart from her
husband:" (1
Cor. 7:10)
Verse 1 Cor 7:8 is addressed to the “ unmarried and
widows”. It is not speaking to the married and divorced.
Therefore, a man or woman even though he or she is divorced and
burns does not
give him or her a right to remarry. (1 Cor. 7.27) Damage
control through remaining single (without dating) must be
implemented.
A good point to remember about 1 Cor. 7:9 is that it is better
for a man to marry,
(not
remarry!) rather than to burn in lust. Considering the
effect of the loss
of restraint among society, the flagrant fornication,
and the ignorance
of men
and church officials,
encouragement of male virtue,
not sexual excitement, is needed.
Women have hormones as well as men. Hopefully, their parents
will have trained
them well. Marriage
is a delicate
institution and the participants need to be prepared
for a life-time adventure.
Many of the people of the world are committing fornication
and adultery.
God will judge such:
“Marriage is honourable in all, and the bed
undefiled: but whoremongers and adulterers God will judge.”
(Heb. 13:4)
Time To Get Out Of The Mainstream Churches
The Orthodox and Roman Catholic
denominations have some very beautiful concepts and “...
teachings of the church fathers... ” (Lila Rose
00:02:36-41); however, their ministers do not have authority to
put themselves above the Scriptures, which they do at times. It
is time to get out of the mainstream churches and develop
churches that do not call their ministers “father”
(Mt. 23.9). It is time to make officials of churches or
gatherings who married as male virgins and do not promote or
condone remarriage through “penitential remarriage.”
Understanding the technicality
of the word “remarry” is important. A chaste widow
is no longer married (1 Cor. 7.39), so if a man took her for a
wife, she would not be remarrying as an adulteress, who is
under the law of lifetime marriage. (Rom. 1-3) In that sense,
the widow who is not married to begin with would not be
re-marrying, she would be merely marrying. However, the
“penitential remarriage” promoters ignore the word
of God and claim their so-called “pastoral”
authority above the written word. God forbid.
You can go to the finest
seminary. You can earn a doctorate degree with highest honors,
but if you cannot condemn remarriage-adultery and “penitential
remarriage” as such, you are not ready to preach and
teach for God. The public will notice your ignorance,
compromise and passivity. Society will begin to produce other
distorters of good doctrine and fall more rapidly. Amen.
