    My fiancé and I are 18 and 19 and we are getting married in September and we get these remarks from people all the time. It is really the couples decision and it’s sad that people say “do you really want to do that?”. They don’t realize that marriage is a blessing from God.

      I would honestly say, divorce is NEVER the best choice, but after the person had left and remarried, then it's the last resort, NEVER the best choice.

      And we have known and believed the love that God has for us. God is love, and he who abides in love abides in God, and God in him” (1 John 4:16).

      4 Love is patient and kind; love does not envy or boast; it is not arrogant 5 or rude. It does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable or resentful;[b] 6 it does not rejoice at wrongdoing, but rejoices with the truth. 7 Love bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.
      8 Love never ends.
      1 Corinthians 13:4-8

    Just wanted to send some encouragement! We got married at barely 20. We’re now 12+ years and 4 kids in and our marriage is such an incredible blessing! Don’t listen to people’s horror stories! Marriage for God is the best!

      @Fruityflootloops ปีที่แล้ว

      Respectively makes no sense unless you say it following another ordered thing? Like 19 and 24 respective to what? Does mother or father come first in this lol. Not trying to be picky just trying to both help and am curious because it seems you meant to give this information and accidentally used wording that doesn’t.

    • @Favvlatina
      @Favvlatina ปีที่แล้ว +1

      i think they mean they got married willingly, with eachother’s respect, because during those times it was common for a man to force a woman to marry him otherwise they would be shamed for saying no

    Jacob and Julia from the moment I started following the both of you on social media, before you were engaged, I saw God coming from both of you individually and more radiant together. It continues to grow each day and I see it burn brighter as well. I know that your story together was God's handwriting and He continues to write it. I love how genuine and transparent you both are. I know God will bless both of you abundantly.

  • @anthonydamato0803
    @anthonydamato0803 ปีที่แล้ว +13

    Finding out that me and Julia are almost exactly the same age (I turn 20 in a month) just made me realize how different gods calling can be for people. I’ve never even had a relationship before, and I think it’s for good reason. I think god wanted me to find your guys’ channel and use you guys as mentors before committing myself to a relationship, and I’m really grateful to both of you for what you do! God bless man 🙏

    You are both mature beyond years. You have God at center which is most important- jason and I got married 20 and 22 knew each other since we were 14 and 17. We celebrated 20 years the other day and it went by in a flash and I’m so glad we shared life together - as best friends and partners- I see that in you all and you are doing awesome! Love you guys!!

    I agree 100%. I think in a lot of cases it’s unwise to get married young, but it really depends on the couple and where God is leading you. I can tell you guys are really mature for your ages and strong in your faith and have a firm foundation in Christ for your relationship.

  • @Fruityflootloops
    @Fruityflootloops ปีที่แล้ว +4

    9:06 I’m not even religious but I agree with this stance on divorce. It is valid in cases, but before getting married people don’t always truly understand if they are compatible in such a way. Marriage is a very intense bond, it’s making you into family basically, and it’s important to understand that. If you don’t feel that level of inseparable comfort with your partner, marriage isn’t in your immediate path. My mom’s divorce was something I wish she chose sooner her and my father were awful, but I appreciate she truly tried to make it work. Your take on divorce with understanding why people say you might get divorced (for looking out for you), why it can be very important, why you shouldn’t look down on others for it, but also why this assumption everyone gets divorced is not fair because you view marriage differently.

    Be blessed, my beloved sister and brother in Jesus Christ's name. I listen to you since Ottawa - Canada 🇨🇦 . I just wanted to correct Jacob saying that divorce could be the best thing according to the circumstances: NO
    The always best thing in whatever circumstances is Jesus-Christ.
    I understand it could happen a moment that angers, hate and bad things increase between married ones and reach out to the point that there is no more way back, or a such of bad circumstance that the pattern of the world corrupted flesh might set married ones into, whatever the situation, and according to the FACT that married ones are christians, Jesus-Christ's Holy spirit will rise them above whatever those circumstance: because that is the legacy of His death in the cross, which is the reconciliation with the Almighty God through the waters of baptism in a sincere and honest way, which arms us with the tool to be able to subsequently reconcile us now between us Men on earth: the tool being the Holy spirit that dwell in us all the time ever. That is why a christian's couple cannot divorce whatever the worst situation ever.
    The Almighty God in Heaven Says in Holy Scriptures that He hates divorce
    Marriage is not a contract, but a covenant. Divorce violates our very important covenant with God, since God is the Holy Witness of our commitment. In the bible, God often uses pictures to illustrate/project spiritual truths; for example when Abraham offered his son Isaac on the altar, it was a picture of the sacrifice of God's only begotten Son, which would take centuries later. So Marriage is a picture of the covenant between god and his people (Hebrews 9:15).
    Covenant is an unbreakab and God wants us to understand this importance.
    Be blessed, be strengthened in Jesus Christ our Lord

      I understand how you feel. I'm almost 25 and still not married or in a relationship and there are days when I wonder, "When is it my turn?" Especially when I see friends I went to high school with on Facebook and they are married and have kids. I hope I can encourage you. God's timing is perfect. Jeremiah 29:11 says that God knows the plans he has for us. He knows when it's time. It will be worth the wait when you meet your future husband.

    Listen kids, I'm old enough to be your grandpa. I'm in my late forties, and I've been married for 18 years to my beautiful wife. By the time I was 18 years old, I had been to five other countries, most states in the US, and competed nationally in Taekwondo. By the time I was 25, I had been to three Olympic Games. I got married at 31. I would've never had those opportunities had I gotten married. When you have kids, it's going to be harder to do a lot of the things I did when I was single. Have you even been out of your own state? Have you ever been out of the country? In this economy, it's going to be next to impossible to do anything life that. I would hold off on having kids. If you can't have kids, that's fine too. My wife and I tried as hard as we could to conceive, and we couldn't afford the $50,000 to adopt. Marriage life is hard, the most difficult thing I have done in my life. You guys are still young. Make sure you choose wisely. You're going to have to live with your decisions.

    Hey there Jacob,
    This is so encouraging. My Fiancé and I are engaged and are getting married the 27th of July (2024). I’m 19 and she will be 20. We have heard a lot of the world’s wisdom from people who genuinely care about us. There have been some discouraging comments, but the majority (including both our families) of comments is positive and supportive. We have built our relationship on Christ and will continue to do so. Thanks ya’ll!

    My cousin is 1 year younger than me I am 12 and she has a boyfriend and they always talk about living on the grind with each other. No phones no Internet in the middle of the woods and it is so funny to me because whenever she loses her phone she can’t go without it like she cries when she can’t find it so it’s funny to me that she wants to live on the grind with her boyfriend when they get older and get married.😂

    Back in the early 80’s. I got married. I wish I could have grown old with my late wife but she was a juvenile onset diabetic since 1970. She got called home at age 51 over 13 years ago. Yes she is in Heaven with Jesus. I had a dream/ vision 2-3 days before she passed on where she told me she needed my permission to go with Jesus. She had been on a respirator with 100% staff pneumonia, a coma and stomach tube.

    GOD HATES DIVORCE. It's really only for the unbeliever who leaves a believer (1 Corinthians 7). Marriage is no longer 2, but one, so you will never stop being one. Divorce is selfishness. Forgiveness, Christ, communication, prayer, church, are commands and a blessing. No one who gets divorce is happy about it in the long run. It's wrong. God wants unselfishness, unity (in the Holy Spirit) worship, love God, love one another. Marriage is beautiful 😍 thank the Lord and should be beautiful. It reflects Christ love and faithfulness to His bride, the church, and it is an adventure & glorifying God. We help each other and thank God always. Praise Him❣
