MARRIAGE & ADULTERY

What is the most romantic, sacrificial thing that you've ever done for love?

Think about being married to the person of your dreams and waking up to that person every morning. Telling that person that you love him/her every night while joyfully sacrificing for that person and praying for that person's well being and peace. Think about everything that you will go through in this life, whether good or bad just by being married to that person.

Imagine when that that person, cheats on you. After all the loving, giving, time, sacrifices, struggles, and patience that you've given them.

Each and every time we sin, we cheat on Christ for this seductive 'thang' called sin.
Why do we constantly cheat on Christ, someone who always have our back for someone or something else (sin) that will leave us stressed, depressed and crying back to Jesus.

When we will say enough is enough and be faithful to our spiritual husband/wife?

Sin looks so beautiful, with his/her nice physique, beautiful hair, gorgeous smile. Now, you know that you shouldn't entertain sin because you're married to someone who has unconditional love for you, who will die, better yet has already died for you, who wants the best for you. Someone that you can talk to, who want to bare all your burdens so that you can have peace.

Romans 7:14-16  Struggling with Sin
