Matt 5:31-32 . . It has been said: Anyone who divorces his wife must give
her a certificate of divorce. But I tell you that anyone who divorces his wife,
except for marital unfaithfulness, causes her to become an adulteress, and
anyone who marries the divorced woman commits adultery.

For a while here @ home in the USA, youngster's were getting married on an
experimental basis via so-called starter marriages with the expectation that
their first marriages will probably fail but at least they'll be the wiser for it.

Christian men cannot be doing that! If there is any doubt, any doubt at all
that the girl on your horizon may not be right for you, then it's best to
reckon she isn't rather than rolling the dice and risk coming up with snake
eyes instead of a 7 or 11 because the supreme being will not approve your
returning that girl like you would the free trials offered by product manufacturers.

Matt 19:4-6 . . He who created them from the beginning made them male
and female. For this cause a man shall leave his father and mother, and
shall cleave to his wife; and the two shall become one flesh. Consequently
they are no longer two, but one flesh. What therefore God has joined
together, let no man separate.

1Cor 11:14-15 . . Does not the very nature of things teach you that if a
man has long hair, it is a disgrace to him, but that if a woman has long hair,
it is her glory?

"the very nature of things" can't be trusted to reflect the laws of God
because the nature of things in 1st century Corinth was very different than
the nature of things across the ocean in the Americas.

In other words: the nature of things pertains to humanistic attitudes in
matters relative to propriety-- in particular one's own culture. For example:
in the Roman world of Paul's day; long hair on a man was nothing to be
proud of, whereas in the world of USA's indigenous people, long hair on men
is strong and virile.

Luke 22:35-37 . . Then Jesus asked them: When I sent you without purse,
bag or sandals, did you lack anything? Nothing: they answered. He said to
them: But now if you have a purse, take it, and also a bag; and if you don't
have a sword, sell your cloak and buy one.

I can recall neither the details nor the source, but I read somewhere that
Communist China is reluctant to invade the USA because too many citizens
over here have firearms.

When Fidel Castro took the reins in Cuba, his first order of business was to
disarm the people, even those who assisted his revolution, because he knew
only too well that if an armed citizenry could succeed in deposing Batista,
they could be just as successful deposing himself.

The second element of the Bill Of Rights has been construed by the US
Supreme Court to include personal self defense. But its original intent was
that every American possess firearms suitable for war in the event it
becomes necessary to muster a citizen army to help repel foreign invasion.
In point of fact, had it not been for Minutemen during the war of 1812, the
colonists very likely would've been crushed.

Personally, I do not fear the usual kind of foreign invasion conducted by
military forces. No, my fear of invasion is relative to the multiple thousands
of illegal aliens that the USA's current administration has been aiding and
abetting to pour into my land and allowed to go pretty much wherever they
want and to do practically anything they please, including criminal mischief.
And God help us should someone mobilize the 4.4 million Muslims residing
here to begin killing Christians on sight.

Plus: should it ever happen that the grid becomes critically disabled, thereby
shutting down banking and merchandising, and rendering debit cards, credit
cards, and ATM machines virtually useless; we're going to see Mad Max
chaos in this country like never before.

Luke 11:21-22 . . When a strong man, fully armed, guards his own house,
his possessions are safe. But when someone stronger attacks and
overpowers him, he takes away the armor in which the man trusted and
divides up the spoils.

Point being: warfare has always been incumbent upon the guys within the
ranks of God's people.

Titus 2:2 . . Older men are to be temperate, dignified, sensible, sound in
faith, in love, in perseverance.

I used to get my watches serviced by an aging repairman at a local mall
until the day finally came when I could no longer tolerate his manners. He
was around seventy-five years old, cantankerous as can be, and perpetually
cross. I often felt like asking him if he ever gave any thought to his future.
You know, heaven is a place of peace. A hateful man like that repairman
would not only never fit in there, but it wouldn't be fair to the others to
permit him in their world.

"Cantankerous" can be defined as: habitually ill-humored, irritable,
disagreeable, bearish, cankered, cranky, cross-grained, dour, morose, sour;
crabby, cross, crusty, huffy, petulant, prickly, snappish; dyspeptic, ill
conditioned, thin-skinned, complaining, and ill-natured.

A Christian man in old age really ought to be a sweet, mellow guy: a pal and
a big brother for the younger ones rather than somebody they'd prefer do
the world a favor by stepping in front of a bus.
