When the Bride cheats on the Groom | 04/09/2021

I sat in my room yesterday morning and felt so bad for my fellow bros and sisters both in the faith and out of the faith. But the one which hurt me most was the Church.
When I look at what happens in the church of Christ my heart bleeds🥺

1 Corinthians 6:13
[13]Meats for the belly, and the belly for meats: but God shall destroy both it and them. Now the body is not for fornication, but for the Lord; and the Lord for the body.

Let me tell you the truth, the day you accepted that title of Child of God you were sold out, your body, talent, vision, everything you think you own had been sold out to God. Infact, Galatians 2:20 became your reality. That's if you genuinely gave your whole life to Him.
I cannot talk about sexual Immorality without saying something on faithfulness.

You know in Africa we have this mentality that all men are cheats and some christians also embrace it, some arrange it by saying they can't say they will never cheat but they believe in faithfulness😂
Hmmmmmm we should stop that, if you can't be faithful to your spouse then my brother/sister you are still a child, marriage is not for you. You can't be a good child of God without being faithful. Have you forgotten the scripture says "without faith, you cannot please God?"

Nowadays, there has been so much spiritual corruption and bankruptcy in the so called Church and funny enough, our leaders are quiet and try to coat the lies and deceit. How pathetic it is to endorse such practice seriously we should learn how to rebuke evil practices in church not with the intention of causing chaos or bringing down someone but rather to preserve the image of God.

Today I will like to lay down my mind on one the most heartbreaking evil practices that have been bringing down the body of Christ. The topic of;



Sexual Immorality

We have been hearing alot about it yes it's true, you will keep on hearing and today you will hear from me. There are a lot of definitions to this subject already and I'm not going to give any definition for this anymore.

Do you think that this body belongs to you? That you can do anything you want to do with it just because you carry it left and right?🤔
Do you think because all power has been given to you, you can do and undo without taking heed to instructions?
It is often said by my mentor

When the purpose of a thing is not known, the abuse is inevitable.
-Apst. Michael Orokpo

Your body doesn't belong to you anymore coz you've been bought with a price and the only way you can pay back is by total submission to the word of God. Reading the scriptures is not enough but keeping them jealously and applying them to daily life is what I'm talking about here.
When you begin keeping these instructions, you and God become one, that is He is in you and you in Him. That's what we call communion or koinonia or partnership. Communion is not going to church and eating bread! It is beyond bread bro/sis it is a condition you attain that makes you become one in Christ Jesus.

Then how manage do you even have an affair with someone who is not like you? How🤷🏾‍♀️
Seriously tell me how you do this.
I can feel some people say "thank God I have an affair with a child of God ohh we even go to church together" let me shock you, so far as that child of God is not your spouse it is even worst 🤦🏾‍♀️ and this concerns you as well.
(That was just an aside)

Don't you know that if you sleep with a prostitute you automatically/ instantly become a prostitute? No matter who you sleep or have sex with you become that person. It is not a question but an information if you don't know.

By sleeping with prostitutes, people's spouses, sisters, brothers in the careless you are irritating God, calling for curses upon your life, killing your spirit and insulting God.

Please repent from sleeping around, it's not good for you.
God has better plans for you, for your life.

There are two equations,

Me + God = 1........i
Me + other = 1.......ii

So you are either cheating on God or on the other. But all depends on you.
I know that when you're in a close and intimate relationship with God, loving other people won't be actually a problem. So stop the double life it's either you're in or you're out, there's no place for the double minded in God's kingdom.
Don't be reckless with your lifestyle.
Jesus Christ is calling firth for you. If you haven't yet yielded to him and wish to do so, there's a prayer for you. Pray it with all sincerity and faith.

Dear Lord Jesus, I recognise that I am a sinner, and I come before you to ask for Your forgiveness. I believe that you died for my son's and rose up on the 3rd day. I make a U-turn from all my sins and i invite you to come into my heart and affect my life. I want to follow and trust you as my Lord and personal Saviour. Thank you Lord Jesus.
Amen

If you made this prayer, congratulations you are now found in Christ.
God bless you, shalom ♥️

You are perfectly right bro 😂. I don't actually know why most African men believe in such terrible acts that will bring nothing but calamity upon them.

Do you think that this body belongs to you? That you can do anything you want to do with it just because you carry it left and right?🤔
Do you think because all power has been given to you, you can do and undo without taking need to instructions?

Sincerely this is so powerful and heartfelt. This is because majority of unbelievers and even some few Christians always think they have the full right to do what ever they wishes to do with their body not even minding that is God that created that body for them.



Thanks so much for sharing this beautiful piece of information bro. I pray it reaches out to the whole world

Amen bro i pray so too. I was shocked when I saw certain stuff and my heart began to cry.
We have to repent all of us

Amen 🙏 bro I pray so too

This is a very touching piece. Feels like I'm in church already 😅😅.
The issue of sexual immortality has damaged the young people especially the girls. As they want to have what their peers have as well.

This is the highest sin that takes us away from God. The Bible says Every other son, is committed out of the body but sexual immorality is done inside the body. Even men of God fall prey to it.

I hope people come to the realization that God is Ultimate.

Im telling you, i was talking to this girl and she began telling me stuff! She was ready to lose her virginity because she felt what most people are doing is the right thing and she's on the wrong path.

Men if God are even those most exposed to this. If you're a MOG and you don't genuinely love God eh. Im afraid you'll fall each time

You should have told her rather she's unique still being one,all those bragging of how theyve thrown theirs in a careless but deep inside they all regret n rather than helping the innocent ones they want to drag them into the same shit

Of course I did tell her! What is the need of opening up to someone and the person doesn't give a solution? I won't disclose how our discussion went here right! It's a vital law in every counsellor's life.
Thanks for your comment

Okay,then its Fine.
Thanks again for this post

You have just said the bitter truth , I am terrified and i feel guilty , I want to thank you for this write-up which will enable the readers examine their lives and see if it is worth to call the name of the Lord.

Actually bro..it really hurts to such in the house of the almighty ...
I hope there is non in the house of steem

This is actually good and I wish many of our young people can read this article. I dwell on the young because they have fixed their minds on sex and sees nothing else in a man or woman other than sex. We get drained by this act everyday but never learn a lesson. Our bodies are the temple of the holy Spirit and so we should endeavor to keep it holy and fit for the dwelling of the most high God.

Don't you know that if you sleep with a prostitute you automatically/ instantly become a prostitute?

Yeah it's rampantly said by men that a certain girl is a prostitute and others still insult her and go to have sex with her. Like you said sleeping with a prostitute makes you one. It's advisable we keep our bodies sacred and wait till we are married. Thanks for sharing this @majerius

🙏🏾🙏🏾 thanks for reading and leaving a comment, I'm honoured

Undiluted word of God
Nice one there but I would like to get your attention for a minute here , well with what you present in your topic , you give us the idea that dating as a whole or in the context of having an erotic relationship with someone is completely know as a sin against God i hope I get it correctly if not fell free to correct me please but what I'm trying to ask is that do you mean as young adults (not yet married ) one cannot feely find comfort with the opposite sex in terms of a relationship as in it is bad as a sin!??
Cuz you make it clear that dating is wrong or If not do you believe that if a relationship is free from sexual activities then it can be acceptable!??
I would like you idea on this

To begin with, I'll say dating isn't bad! But the motif you are dating is what makes it bad.
Yeah having an erotic relationship with someone is not acceptable. Erotic here means sexually arousing. And anything that arouses your sexual desire will obviously make you commit sin either in the act or in the mind. Remember the word of God says "as a man thinketh in his heart, so is he"

Your second question will need clarification again, if the purpose of the relationship is based on the context of sexual pleasure then it's wrong!
I didn't mention dating as being wrong, but said having an affair is wrong. So if you're having an affair (sexual relationship) with anyone be it in the church or not, you're sinning and it's not good for your spiritual health.

Yeah a relationship that is devoid of sin as a whole not only sexual immorality is acceptable. You can be friends as in just friends with other opposite sexes.

You'll bear with me that the mindset of most people when you say he or she is my boyfriend or girlfriend is easy to know. They take it as boyfriend means sin partner. Etc etc. Hope i answered your question.
Thanks for your comment, God bless you

Thanks for the clarification, I hope one day we can sit to talk more in this ,I enjoy having this discussions

By sleeping with prostitutes, people's spouses, sisters, brothers in the careless you are irritating God, calling for curses upon your life, killing your spirit and insulting God.

This one is powerful. I have nothing to say but to resteem this post for more awareness and sensitisation. Kudos bro and keep up !

Thank you bro! God bless you. There is a need for concern in this generation really. It's bad

Really bad my brother...

If you could speak to the men about their African culture they've madeup in their heads and they listen, it'll be good.For some ladies are tired n would prefer being alone than with humans...thanks though for the scriptures.
I was waiting impatiently for that story of wife cheating on husband 🤔the husband was God??

Yeah Christ is the husbandman(bridegroom) and we are the bride. Mark 2:20 and Ephesians 5:21-27

Well the topic is for both parties, the men and the women, both in the faith and out of the faith there are many women too who have frustrated men same as many men who have frustrated men. But I'm not here to pay blames on anyone of them, rather I'm here to let known what is supposed to be done.
Personally, i think the african mentality as well as the western mentality is disturbing us all and the earlier we live as Christ lived, we'll always have the conflicts we are having. Thanks so much @belle26 for your comment, God bless you ❤️🙏🏾

Thankyou ,God bless you too

some arrange it by saying they can't say they will never cheat but they believe in faithfulness😂

They are consoling themselves ,it’s funny to me how people do this ,and they know fully well that what they are doing is spiritually wrong. They find all means possible to justify their acts forgetting to know that what is true is true .No matter how much you try to run away from the truth it will always be there waiting for you to accept it. Instead of trying to get back to the right tract they find quotes to justify their wrong doings. But how can you say premarital sex is fornication ? I thought without it our young boys will die? So how are you expecting them to cope😂
Should an unmarried man die?😂
But I believe that truly it’s fornication and that’s one of the reasons why God gave us marriage.
Thanks for this.

Yeah you just did the same thing they do oh see what you just said "should a young man die?"😂 That's just how it is.
I believe strongly in the word of God. Apostle paul said if you see that you can't keep yourself then get married to run away from sexual lusts.

We live in an era where the most popular things seem to be the right thing meanwhile it isn't.
No matter how popular a thing is, if it is wrong, then it is wrong. The right thing remains God's word.

I just pray the Lord helps us yaah.
