    May the Lord return! Amen. God is merciful. He always forgives. Never be ashamed to take your failures to him. He is for you, not against you! God is with you in the storm. He knows your troubles, he hears you! He is for you, on your side, always! It may feel silent at times, but he’s holding you close! May the Lord return soon! We are drawing closer. He is coming! Believe and trust in the Lord, you will be saved. Period. May the Lord bless you all! Hang in there family. Stay strong. It is not easy following the Lord. We are scoffed at. We give up our earthly dreams, our fleshly desires. What the enemy offers is short lived, but heaven is forever! Life may seem or be unfair, but God is with you! Always remember that. Things may get better or worse for you, but a kingdom awaits you! Finish the race! Repent daily and carry your cross. This world is fading fast. Your troubles are temporary! New channel here, I’d appreciate any kind of support. Don’t give up! God loves you so much! So do I. The Lord bless you!

    This video came in such a great timming, I woke up today reflecting about many misconducts regarding my sexual life, that I had in the past, and this explanation made so much more sense to WHY it was so wrong, and WHY all those experiences ended up badly and never how I wanted then to be (a good marriage and the begging of a family).
    God is amazing, and his wisdom truly is infinite.
    God bless

    May we come to a full revelation of who we are in God, that every part of us is submitted to him, otherwise he won't be glorified in us and we'll continue sinning, especially sexually.

    Please pray for my dad. I am a Christian and my dad is a catholic. He is a believer in God but doesn’t believe in the Bible. But even in the catholic church they use the Bible for reading. And I told him that in the most kind and respectful way. But still, he only believes that the Bible is historic but not God’s word. I am so so confused and do not get it. Please pray for me and for my dad :(

    There is no sexual intercourse or childbearing in heaven and we will not care about it at all.
    In heaven we will enjoy the non-sexual companionship of each other and not desire or miss sexual intercourse.
    We will enjoy being a family in Jesus and a name better than sons and daughters and not be able to or desire reproducing biological children.
    We will enjoy the marriage to Jesus more than sexual intercourse.
    We will enjoy all the joys and pleasures from Jesus with everyone else in heaven without the desire for sexual intercourse or childbearing.
    This is how heaven will be like.

    Wow, the Holy Spirit just gave me revelation of the one flesh. Ok let me share....we are one with Christ through accepting and acknowledging Him as our Lord and Savior,and His BLOOD MAKES THIS POSSIBLE FOR US TO BE JOINED TO HIM. Women are supposed to be virgins when they marry, so breaking the hymen (BLOOD) is now a symbol of covenant of being united. But now how is there a covenant when a woman is no longer a virgin and there is no hymen (BLOOD)?

    • @In2theLight
      @In2theLight ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Because of the leaving and cleaving and holding fast to his wife. Because marriage is a public ceremony with witnesses and God joins the couple into holy matrimony. Whether she or he is a virgin doesn't change this fact. Ideally both should be virgins but if they are not God still joins them into marriage.

    • @StephanoDespot
      @StephanoDespot 24 วันที่ผ่านมา

      because Jesus tells us He makes us new, the old has passed, we are new creation. We are born again, physical blood has nothing to do with it, because now I don't have Jesus' physical blood to be washed from my sins, the same way, womans physical blood has nothing to do with the new virginity in Christ. God is very consistant spiritually and physically when it comes to symbolics but we are not capable of being born again literally, so through Christ we are born again/new creation.

    "What Does It Mean to Become One Flesh?"
    Good question kind Sir...
    I believe that the "One Flesh" in the bible; is as "literal" as it could be; on this old earth. Thus, when we go back to Creation; Jesus, who is the ONLY true God, told Adam...
    Genesis 2:24 Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave unto his wife: and they shall be(come) one flesh.
    But sadly, that is few and far; in today's "marriages". Since MOST of them ends up in "Divorces" today. Which is "Abominable Sins". For Jesus gave ONLY one reason to ever Divorce; and that was if she committed adultery. Outside that; there is NO heavenly law to Divorce. Please read Mathew 19:3-8. Now...And to hell with the courts and silly judges...
    Fast forward to the"END time" on "Judgment Day"; where Jesus removes all Born Again's "Flesh" forever; and we become totally a "Spiritual Being" forever. Where we are called the "Bride" (so to speak) and Jesus is called the "Bridegroom" (so to speak). And we have been given "White [purity] Garments".
    But instantly; we are ushered into the "New" Heaven; and we become "ONE" with Jesus forever. NO more "Jesus and his Children". Rather: "ONE". Isn't that awesome? Thus, we will have powers untold; and NO sins ever again. Nor "tears, sorrows, pains or deaths". EVER again. Praise Jesus' Holy Name...
    ...In any case kind Sir and Brethren, Please Pray OFTEN and Praise Jesus OFTEN; for He is the ONLY true "God Almighty"; there will ever have been. And may Jesus bless you and yours always. AMEN!

    This is probably going to upset many but the answer to this question is so simple that most miss it, begin with, God made them male and female, for this reason a man will leave his father and mother and cleave to his wife and the two shall become one flesh ( more or less what it says ), start here, why did God make them male and female, the most obvious answer has to do with procreation, making MORE males and females, so He wouldn't have to do it over and over from the dust of the ground and the rib of a man, it can't be done by a male with a male, the second sentence is why the man leaves his mother and father, the most obvious answer, he's searching for what nature is drawing him to, that would be the female, cleaving to her, the most obvious answer, has sex with her, don't assume beyond this what he's doing and you will see the answer, the two shall become one flesh, ONE FLESH, how is this possible?, it's in the CHILD, the act of sex is what makes the child, the man is one flesh, the woman is one flesh, that makes TWO, two shall become one flesh, the child is BOTH of them, it's when love meets love and makes love that love is born, God is love, love between one man and one woman making a child that is NOT forbidden by any of the laws given Moses that God did not approve of, people are so focused on the things that make a man and a woman, husband and wife, such as marrying and marriage, they don't see whom it is that makes life happen and why they shouldn't be separated, it all comes down to responsibility and who is responsible for what they bring into this world, man is not God, he can only represent Him, Jesus is not talking about the representatives of God, He's talking about God Himself when He say's, what God has joined together, let no man separate, had He meant man, He would have said, what man has joined together, marrying and marriage are not the same thing and will never be, both are the causes of bringing children into this world but neither are completely honored or respected by all, however marriage is respected by more, still, you get her pregnant, in God's eyes, you just found the one that He ties you to until death do you part unless it happens through one of the laws Moses forbid others to marry, God's law and will concerns all men, not just the Jew, how a man gets his wife? you cannot enter another country preaching that woman is not your wife because you didn't marry her like us, as far as law goes, their law determines this and must be respected, the same goes for the manner or way he gets her, if they believe having sex with her makes her his wife, such as many do, then having sex with her makes her his wife, I just know the sex is not what makes her his wife, not in God's eyes, no more than a marriage does, two different things however one having more respect than the other, there are many customs around the world that happen that lead up to a marriage, but will be judged by God by certain things that have to do with sex between a man and a woman, faithfulness and responsibility being the foremost, a man and a woman that are faithful to each other, God will not judge, a man and a woman that is responsible for their actions, God will not judge, but a child born to them, God will judge, and that judgement will be with you your whole life no matter how old the child gets, why? let that child get hurt and can't take care of their self when they have left home and have no one to care for them, your going to feel guilty if you don't take care of that child unless you just don't love the child, there is only one way to avoid this, don't make a baby, be a eunuch, this is true, not everyone can accept it, but a eunuch can have sex, he just can't reproduce, that's in reply to what Jesus told the disciple when he said, if that be the case with a man and his wife, then it's better not to marry, unite with a woman for having his child

    They become 1 flesh in their children by the blending of their genes.This is holy and an image of his holy trinity reason it is called holy matrimony, God is a spirit and he took on our own human body of flesh as we were separated from God because of this sacrifice we are now members of his own body. This is now flesh of my flesh and bone of my bone- bride of first Adam Forasmuch then as the children are partakers of flesh and blood, he also himself likewise took part of the same, as Adam was put to sleep so Christ his side pierced and out flowed blood and water--the children born of this union- church or bride of christ 2nd Adam . Yes you body is the temple of God and you should use not use it in a disrespectful way by joining it to a prostitute to putting drugs into it etc..

    What is dismemberment means? You don't have to make Christ as a sexual object and change the meaning of "member" as an organ. Just say don't commit adultery or fornicate. It's much siimpler
