Besides not agreeing with it myself , I am married, having a husband that would never agree with supporting a drunken sexual deviant type that might be atracted to him. Even if he did I (as his wife) am also subject to him (my husband)

Whereas your wife on the other hand must not rule over you.

You cant use her as an excuse as I can use my own husband. She (as a christian wife) must needs be subject to what you (as her husband) would have others do to qualify for this love of God (as this sort of proof) as you might preach it to others. I can use YOUR excuse whereas you cant, its on the husband to rule over his wife in such decisions as the man of the house (and as one under God) who believes this is service to God (and preaches the same to others).

Ohhh, such a rant. LOL And it kind of goes to show you didn't read what I wrote in that post when I "preached to others." I said "Might it be?"

And any man who ignores his wife's earnest wishes and apprehensions is no leader.

No, I have a wife who won't agree to that. But she and I have both (admittedly on too rare an occasion) paid for a motel room for some homeless people..... don't really know about their personal habits. LOL

The homelesses personal habits are more the concern than the immorality

I agree with your wife, I said,

If its earnest wishes against what you might preach to others to do and dont do it yourself using your own wife to your excuse, what am I to think?

As our Lord might say,

"thou sayest"

:p

I'm kidding, it just appeared as scripture pitting at first, coming into thoe verses with the other in that question which is why I asked, according to your own verses "do you feel they are the law"? In some sense as they deserved a correction. It didnt seemed posted in any agreement (to the ones posted) but rather as set up against them (as I was understanding it).

But its no big deal, I asked, and you will get various answers, I should have just left it alone.

Peace

He was a lamb to the lost.

A lion to the religious. ....and Satan.


He came to Paul as a lion. Who had morphed into a religious freak.

1 John 4:7-12,16-21 KJVS
[7] Beloved, let us love one another: for love is of God; and every one that loveth is born of God, and knoweth God. [8] He that loveth not knoweth not God; for God is love. [9] In this was manifested the love of God toward us, because that God sent his only begotten Son into the world, that we might live through him.

[10] Herein is love, not that we loved God, but that he loved us, and sent his Son to be the propitiation for our sins. [11] Beloved, if God so loved us, we ought also to love one another. [12] No man hath seen God at any time. If we love one another, God dwelleth in us, and his love is perfected in us.

[16] And we have known and believed the love that God hath to us. God is love; and he that dwelleth in love dwelleth in God, and God in him. [17] Herein is our love made perfect, that we may have boldness in the day of judgment: because as he is, so are we in this world. [18] There is no fear in love; but perfect love casteth out fear: because fear hath torment. He that feareth is not made perfect in love. [19] We love him, because he first loved us.

[20] If a man say, I love God, and hateth his brother, he is a liar: for he that loveth not his brother whom he hath seen, how can he love God whom he hath not seen? [21] And this commandment have we from him, That he who loveth God love his brother also.

define love. if all have the same IQ, then this would be an easy definition for all.

I think I get it though because my husband says some things which are against the rules here (but does so in private) but I wouldnt rush to repeat those. Not only would many of them be against the rules but against my own conscience to deliver.

No, I would tell you to your face, because I think she is probably right.

Love is not pure love until it is a sacrificial thing. That is what Jesus left us as an example.

Sacrificial love puts the other person's need before your own. It gives up what it thinks it has a "right to". And this is impossible to do unless Christ is living in a heart. And He fulfills that person's deepest needs.

1Jn 3:16 Hereby perceive we the love of God, because he laid down his life for us: and we ought to lay down our lives for the brethren.
1Jn 3:17 But whoso hath this world's good, and seeth his brother have need, and shutteth up his bowels of compassion from him, how dwelleth the love of God in him?
1Jn 3:18 My little children, let us not love in word, neither in tongue; but in deed and in truth.

Act 2:44 And all that believed were together, and had all things common;
Act 2:45 And sold their possessions and goods, and parted them to all men, as every man had need.

Jas 1:27 Pure religion and undefiled before God and the Father is this, To visit the fatherless and widows in their affliction, and to keep himself unspotted from the world.

Love is a sacrifice of our time,money to help the poor,and our lives,giving up the pleasures of this world,to help all those in need.

I was enjoying this thread, it started out so good. Human love is fickle, it is based on ' me me me me ', until we have children, then its , ' them them them me' LOL, but the love of a parent for a child starts to beckon similarities to the 'divine love' we are privy to in Jesus.

I can't comprehend what Jesus did for us on the cross, what He went through even before He hung there dissolves my understanding. "[SUP]14 [/SUP]. . . his visage was so marred more than any man, and his form more than the sons of men". "I gave my back to the smiters, and my cheeks to them that plucked off the hair: I hid not my face from shame and spitting".

This is love toward us, uncomplicated, all giving, life transforming. It has already been posted here; love is long suffering, and is kind; Love does not envy; Love vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up,Love does not behave itself unseemly, seeks not her own, is not easily provoked, thinks no evil; Does not Rejoice in iniquity, but rejoices in the truth; Endures all things, believes all things, hopes all things, Love never fails.

This is the love we have toward our brothers and sisters and our creator, and it fulfils our place here on earth, it guides us and brings us into His presence. WOW!
