It was a major point in the Soviet communist defeat of the US- destroy the nuclear family. Anyone that goes along with the as g is doing their bidding. That’s all.

Do not get married, especially if you are a guy.

If you can, don’t even date.

You think you’re safe, and shes different, and they all aren’t like that. Lots of other guys thought that too, and they go geound up by gynosociety.

Good replies to the young lady, 'cause the source material is authoritative! As you mentioned, the Lord will call all of us to account and our marriages will be a subject in our accounting. Most of us will be horribly embarrassed about the things we have done, especially when we thought no one was looking - someone always was. So when it comes to our marriages we need to remember that our vows were given to our spouses before witnesses but the witness that really matters most is the one we didn't see, the Holy Spirit.

We also need to remember that love is a voluntary emotion and that each day you wake up and make the decision to love your spouse. Good question to start the day is "how can I show my spouse how I love him/her"? And then ask the Holy Spirit to help you do exactly that.

Marriage in many countries, especially the United States, was replaced decades ago with a bastardized version. It's not an agreement between two individuals but a three-way agreement between Individual A, Individual B, and The State.

Worse, The State involved in the agreement can change, where Individual A can enter an agreement with a new government that changes terms of the original agreement. Individual B could end up in a situation where they never resided under the jurisdiction of the new government but now are party to their involvement.

Until the farce of involvement by The State in marriage is resolved, specifically with "Family" Court and unconstitutional income taxes, marriage, as people like to think of it, doesn't exist.

Think not? Governments in multiple cases have refused to recognize even prenuptial agreements.

No, your commemt is dumb. God's law and plan for the vocation of marriage does not change based on your personal failure or if you hooked up with a barracuda.

There are many great women out there for men. I found my mate and we have been married 23 years and made it work.

When you finally decide to invite the Lord into your marriage it is pretty amazing how you can make it work. It the becomes your foundation of strength and comfort for your life.

Comment isn’t dumb at all. God also gives people common sense and when something turns into a very bad deal for one side of the contract, which marriage is,

the people who know its a bad deal, shouldn’t take it, and advise others they care about not to as well.

It would ge a dumb comment if we still had biblical marriage. We do not anymore. We have state run gynocentric marriage today. We have marriage that you can leave because you’re bored now. 80% of divorces are instituted by women. Marriage isn’t failing because its the men are filing. And if you think just because you have been married a long time you’re okay, you’re dead wrong. The fastest growing area of divorces are in the elderly, ie grey divorces.

Its not anything I’d advise any man to enter into now. I wish I could, but that’s not what I think is good advice.

No we don't. Maybe from a legal side yes but who cares what the Government says you can do or not do when it comes to morals?

And if you think just because you have been married a long time you’re okay, you’re dead wrong.

No, you are wrong. We were married at the altar of God and exchanged vows, "I take you to be my lawful wife, to have and to hold, from this day forward, for better, for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health, until death do us part." And we meant it.

"And the Lord God said: It is not good for man to be alone: let us make him a help like unto himself" - who are we mortals to argue the Wisdom of God?

It's better for women no to get married, especially to the kind of guys you are probably thinking of.

Marriage is not for everyone, and I freely admit I’m one who has no desire to marry. It has nothing to do with example - my parents have been married for 55 years and my sister and her husband have been married for almost 30. They represent two of the happiest marriages I know of. It has to do with each individuals personal preferences.

who cares?

Men should care. Because they are the ones that get divorce raped by the courts.

There is no upside for men to be married in todays society.

You can quote the bible all day but it won’t stop a woman divorcing her husband in todays gynosociety. It won’t stop the courts destroying a mans life.

Divorce rates among christians are on par with the general soxiety, finding a christian woman is no guarantee it will be any better.

Further its sound advice for the average type of woman you will experience in todats america. its the woman that has multiple sex partners before a husband, its one that regards men as an appliance, a utility, an atm for them, until they no longer want it and spciety has set things up for them to leave and financially benefit from doing so at the mans expense. the american woman is the type that files 80% of the divorce cases.

No sane guy today ought to take that deal.

Said by every naysayer since the dawn of time.

Holy Matrimony is stronger than any culture and has been proven over and over again to be one of the pillars of humanity.
