IF A MAN OR WOMAN CAN NOT EXERCISE SELF CONTROL LET
THEM MARRY FOR IT IS BETTER TO MARRY THAN TO BURN WITH
PASSION..................................... 1 CORINTHIANS 7:9 |

'LIVING ONE' WHO SEES ME.

Marriage has always been spoken about in the world and in
the churches of men and women and even in the 'true church' of Jesus
the Christ and is rightly deserving time for conversation for it is
goodly.......... ..Genesis 2:18.
At JTCM Australia we don't accept men and women, young and old kissing and
hugging each other whether members or strangers visiting. We advise that
young men and old men married or unmarried to shake the ladies hands and to
hug the same gender or shake hands. We believe that there is no
saliva/spittle with agape/ahavah/God/Jesus Love.
Sexual immorality is rife in the world and churches today and many an
extra-marital relationship has commenced through a mere extended hug, kiss
on the cheek, even extended handshake. I do confess that this letter would
sound very much Old fashioned and boring but it's apt to save your marriage
and soul.
My wife and I have a great marriage (thorns included) and we grow
together daily even through the difficult times, maybe much more in the
difficult. I don't talk much about marriage for the simple reason marriage
is so private, personal, sacred and so much before God/Jesus and really nothing to
do with the likes of gossips, outsiders, in-laws and outlaws.......Genesis
2:24. Only pretend, (plastic) roses are without thorns.
We believe that a truely great marriage is planted in honesty, truth and
humility, in other words....'holiness' or Jesus the Christ at the
helm. We also believe that it's a myth and fantasy, also gullible to think
for one moment that all marriages start, go on or end in a passionate, fiery
uninterrupted love for one another.
All because our scripture above says so, Jesus is always right,
always. When I first met my wife I was not passionately in love with her or
her with me, neither did I court her for a decade with gifts, neither did I
need a cook or a mother. I simply needed a help-meet hence we have grown
together in the Christ in, by and through the power of holy ghost with
Mashiah's Doctrine as our guide and final say. The real answer to real
marriage is Jesus as Preeminent for him 'and' her.
There are so many dear souls out there in the world today who have been led
into a dark corner regarding marriage as being only for those who are deeply
and passionately in love, people who have dated for years on end and people
who marry only when they have a house, car and X amount of money....rubbish,
rubbish, rubbish.
And many of these are divorced today. I ask all readers and church leaders
to read the account of 'Isaac and Rebekah' and then
rethink what they teach the young ones today in their con-ferences and
synagogues.......Genesis 24:62-67, selah.
We love our lamb, his name is Jesus, let the lamb lead you out of darkness,
the wretched traditions of men and women and into the light of the Christ
that you may have might to fight, run all the way to the end of the race of
faith and love enough to keep 'the faith', doctrine of Mashiah.
My wife is my rose but Jesus is the rose (of Sharon) above every
rose. Amen.
