Adultery Is A Sin!
"Marriage is honourable in all, and the bed undefiled: but whoremongers and adulterers God will judge." -Hebrews 13:4
Adultery is a horrible sin. I could list all the horrible consequences of adultery, but that wouldn't stop you or anyone else from doing it. People are going to do what they're going to do. This is because extremely few people listen to God. Most people worship a self-made god, conjured up in our own reasoning. The Bible is very clear that adulterers will stand in judgment before God...
"...but whoremongers and adulterers God will judge." -Hebrews 13:4
We live in an adulterous generation whose eyes are FULL of adultery.
"Having eyes full of adultery, and that cannot cease from sin; beguiling unstable souls: an heart they have exercised with covetous practices; cursed children" -2nd Peter 2:14
No one is going to get away with anything. God cannot lie and will judge all adulterers and whoremongers. Gene Simmons of the perverted rock band Kiss brags that he has had sex with over 4,600 women in his devilish career. Can you imagine how hot his hell is going to be if he doesn't get saved? Would Jesus forgive such a man? Yes, if Gene Simmons experienced true repentance and came to the Lord for forgiveness. It'll never happen because Gene Simmons is filthy rich, and the Bible says it's easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to be saved. The rich already have heaven on earth, why would they need God? This is why the poor are much more likely to get saved, because they are living in hell on earth.
American society has been so desensitized by the hellivision that adultery has become an accepted thing in society. People don't even think twice about divorcing nowadays and remarrying. "Oh well, if this marriage doesn't work out I'll try another one." Talk show host Larry King has been married 7 times already and still can't get it right (or does he want to get it right?). Elizabeth Taylor is a shame to America. Hollywood is synonymous with adultery. No Christian should ever watch that filth on the TV screen. If you wouldn't allow two godless perverts to come have sex in your living room, then you shouldn't invite them in through your TV set either. It is wicked!!! Adultery is wicked.
But I say unto you, That whosoever shall put away his wife, saving for the cause of fornication, causeth her to commit adultery: and whosoever shall marry her that is divorced committeth adultery.
A divorced man once asked me about the above Scripture. After divorcing his wife, he went ahead and remarried after a few years. He asked me if he had sinned against God, claiming that she had cheated on him. Boy, I hate questions like that. What am I, a priest? He knew that I was a Christian and was feeling guilty for what he had done. I didn't want to condemn him, but neither did I want to condone his sin. I carefully explained to him that divorce should never be an option in any marriage. Once we say "I do," it should be "til death do us part." God HATES divorce, it destroys families and promotes immorality. When the Bible speaks about "committing" adultery, the Greek is in the linear. In other words, no husband or wife should divorce their spouse just for ONE offense. If a marriage partner decides to live in CONTINUED adultery, then the Bible permits a divorce. However, this is NOT the heart of God, Hosea reveals to us the heart of God concerning the matter of marriage:
God had told Hosea to marry a bad woman, Gomer, she was a prostitute (Hosea 1:2). I kind of think Hosea had already had his eyes on this Jezebel, but Hosea knew Gomer was not the proper kind of woman to marry. God told Hosea to go ahead and marry Gomer. Oh how happy Hosea must have been on their wedding day. He said "Hot dog! I've got me a beautiful wife." She was probably beautiful on the outward appearance like Britney Spears or Christian Aguilera. I'm sure she was a hot-dancer and probably wore a few tattoos. Her captivating eyes probably cut right through Hosea with striking beauty. I'm sure she was gorgeous. Little did Hosea realize that his new love would break his heart. Gomer cheated on Hosea left and right, she was a two-time loser. Poor Hosea, his heart was broken. Gomer slept with one man after another and eventually didn't bother to come home anymore. To make a long story short...at the end of Hosea we find Gomer being sold as a slave. Isn't that where sin always takes people? Sin will enslave you (John 8:34). Hosea hadn't seen Gomer for years and had done his best to raise the kids on his own. Gomer had abandoned her family in pursuit of pleasure and wickedness...but only for a season. Hosea had every right to divorce Gomer and never speak to her again.
Time after time, Hosea pleads with his wife to just come home, but she will not return. Hosea tells her he loves her and wants to forget the past. Gomer laughs at Hosea and goes her own way again. She is having a good time and could care less about Hosea or her children. There are MANY women in the world today just like Gomer, women like Jennifer Lopez, who one day just walked out the door on her husband...never to return. Hosea was a tenderhearted man married to a coldhearted woman.
Hosea just so happened to be walking by the market one day where the slaves are sold. As Hosea is walking by, he looks up and notices an old battered woman with a familiar face. It is his wife, Gomer. Hosea cries when he sees Gomer and cannot believe how she has changed. Her beauty is faded and her shapely body withered. She is so ashamed of what she has done...wasted years living in sin...why would Hosea want her back when no one else does? Hosea's heart breaks and he buys Gomer back. Hosea pays cash to buy his wayward wife back from off the slave market.
Oh listen my friend, this is a picture of God's unfeigned love, not the type of synthetic love that the world offers. Hosea NEVER gave up on his wife. Now I realize that some of you have lost a spouse to adultery and cannot go on with your life as is. I am not condemning you in any way. I didn't write this article to condemn anyone. I wrote this article to proclaim the Biblical TRUTH that God never gives up on anyway. We may give up on our selves, but God never gives up on us. Likewise, I don't believe we should ever give up on our spouse. Gomer was in utter shock. Why in the world would Hosea take her back, even pay money for her? The answer is because Hosea loved Gomer with God's love. A marriage should be based upon God's love, not the phony generic "love" which is no love at all. What Michael Schiavo did to his wife Terri is NOT God's love. I am not condemning him, I am just saying that it is not God's love. Michael could have given Terri's care over to her parents who begged to take care of her. God's love never writes anyone off.
The world is filled with feminists whores who despise authority, and have nothing but contempt for strong men. The dead end of feminism is often homosexuality. Women have become too much like men nowadays, forsaking their femininity on the alter of "freedom." They live like working men. Well, Gomer pursued what she thought was "freedom" and ended up in slavery. Gomer was a feminist in her day, a careless woman. Madonna isn't so young anymore, she has to appear with Britney Spears to hide the fact that she is over the hill. Madonna is also a careless woman. The Bible reveals that sin is only fun for a "season" (a short time). Payday someday!
Sadly, some married couples are so hardened in their hearts that they have open-marriages (swingers). Such practices are evil and an abomination unto God. God is jealous over us, and we should be jealous over our spouse. Something is wrong with a wife who doesn't mind her husband being a whoremonger.
"Whosoever therefore shall be ashamed of me and of my words in this adulterous and sinful generation; of him also shall the Son of man be ashamed, when he cometh in the glory of his Father with the holy angels." -Mark 8:38
Some whoremongers are in our churches, ladies beware of church men too (they are still men)...
"Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away. For of this sort are they which creep into houses, and lead captive silly women laden with sins, led away with divers lusts" -2nd Timothy 3:5,6
If there is one sin which America is guilty of more than any other, next to pride and indifference, it would have to be adultery. The United States lone accounts for 25% of the world's sex-tourism. America oozes out pornographic smut into all the nations of the world, corrupting humanity to the utmost. It's bad enough when a nation is guilty of massive adultery, but to video record it and put it on TV for all to see is a great wickedness. Woe unto America!
Oh listen my friend, you are on the slave market of sin, Jesus wants to redeemed your soul. Just as Hosea was willing to receive Gomer as she was, so will Jesus receive you just as you are. Won't you receive Jesus Christ now as your personal Saviour? How to be Saved
Stop Pornography!
"...but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it." -1st Corinthians 10:13
