UNFOLDING THE MYSTERIES IN MARRIAGE
AN EVERLASTING GOSPEL DELIVERED BY THE SOLE SPIRITUAL HEAD
LEADER OLUMBA OLUMBA OBU
FIRST LESSON LUKE 20:34-35
And Jesus answering said unto them, The children of this world marry and are given in marriage:
But they which shall be accounted worthy to obtain that world, and the resurrection from the dead, neither marry, nor are given in marriage:
SECOND LESSON: MATTHEW 19:4-6
And he answered and said unto them, Have ye not read, that he which made them at the beginning made them male and female.
And said, for this cause shall a man leave father and mother, and shall cleave to his wife: and they twain shall be one flesh?
Wherefore they are no more twain, but one flesh. What therefore God hath joined together, let not man put asunder.
GOLDEN TEXT: 1ST CORINTHIANS 7:8-11
I say therefore to the unmarried and widows, it is good for them if they abide even as I.
But if they cannot contain, let them marry: for it is better to marry than to burn.
And unto the married I command, yet not I, but the Lord, let not the wife depart from her husband:
But and if she depart, let her remain unmarried, or be reconciled to her husband: and let not the husband put away his wife.
RULES AND REGULATIONS FOR MARRIAGE:
These instructions constitute the rules and regulations governing the marriage institution in this kingdom and the world at large. If you do not want to have any problem with God, and if you desire to live a life free from problem, you have to abide by this principle.
Peace, progress, good luck, long life and indeed freedom are contained in this divine principle. Many sensitive issues have eluded the people of the world due to the fact that they have rejected the leadership of the Holy Spirit. You are not in spirit. Notwithstanding, there is need for you to realize that God created everything in pairs, that is, in masculine and feminine forms. You should be grateful today that you are privileged to get this recondite wisdom from me.
God created water and fire, He created the land and the sea, the sun and the moon, day and night, all in pairs. Then He exists as God and created man in His own image. The creation of man also necessitated the existence of woman. Note that all His creations do not exist on their own but as one entity. In other words, He is the embodiment of all these things so created. He created these things for a specific purpose. Therefore, it is expected that every creation of God whether man or woman should know exactly where he or she belongs and hold fast to his or her position.
It is for this reason that it is not right for a man to dress like a woman, nor a woman to put on a dress meant for man. None of the opposite sexes should put on anything that tends to portray each in the appearance of the other. God created the man as His soldier. While the woman was created as a comforter. God designed the woman such that she is capable of softening any difficult situation, while the man is created with the potentialities of a caterpillar in order to pull down difficult situations but according to the directive and guidance of this creator. And so you would realize that God has a purpose for creating everything in twos - male and female.
For instance, a car that is manufactured for a specific purpose, cannot be driven through the forest no matter the horse-power of the engine. Instead, it is a bulldozer and allied equipments that are used to clear the forest before a road is constructed on which the car could be driven. That is exactly what applies in the case of man - woman relationships. The woman merely enjoys the work done by the man. God created both heaven and earth and made the heaven His dwelling place while the earth is His foot stool. He also created the heavenly host to reside in heaven and mankind to live on earth. But He is found in both heaven and on earth. The heavenly host do heavenly things while the earthly people do earthly things.
The first man (Adam) is of the earth while the second (Christ) is heavenly, hence the two cannot agree with each other. Note that both are the same God. The heavenly person is of the Spirit, he does and takes delight in spiritual things while the earthly person delights in earthly things. It is for the clarification of this fact that it is said that:
The children of this world marry, and are given in marriage: but those who shall be accounted worthy to inherit the kingdom and the resurrection from the dead, neither marry, nor are given in marriage (neither) can they die anymore: for they are equal unto the angels: and are the children of God.
THERE IS A TIME FOR EVERYTHING:
Also, there is time for everything. To every event a time is allotted for it. John the Baptist came, he did not marry, neither fornicated nor took delight in any of the earthly things. He manifested on earth as the forerunner of Christ. Our Lord Jesus Christ came as the Saviour of man, to shed His precious blood for the remission of the sins of mankind; and to free the entire world from the bondage of sin. By now, you would realize that John came for the specific assignment of informing the world of the coming of the Messiah. His function was quite different from that of Christ.
Christ came to shed His blood for the remission of the sins of man. But the world fails to know this because it takes delight in copying the wrong things. For instance, it is common to find somebody wearing white and you immediately go to the market to buy a white material without first of all finding out the reason why the other person had to put on white.
It would have been better for you to first of all find out whether or not you belong to the group destined to put on white. You should think first of the consequences of putting on the white, whether it would encourage you or prevent you to function according to the purpose for which you were created.
The first man (Adam) was of the earth, that is why all those who are from his stock delight in earthly things. They center their thoughts, words and deeds on the earthly things: Thus, the second man comes from God. He strongly delights in heavenly things and the growth of the kingdom of God. He does everything to portray the kingdom of God. (Read 1st Corinthians 15:47-48).
THE IMPORTANCE OF THE EARTHLY MAN:
Note that it was not the heavenly man that first came but the earthly. A local adage has it that, to expect a good yield, the god of the soil should be appeased before planting. This in effect shows that, had the earthly man has not come to clear the way and put things right on earth, the heavenly man would not have been able to come to set your minds at rest. I know that you are confused as a result of events in the world today. You have been told very many things that you are now between and betwixt. It is not right to say that your fore fathers used to do this and that, as such you want to follow the same steps. You should avoid it. There is time for everything. After that time, they are not expected to do anything earthly anymore. There is a time specifically set aside for the heavenly people to assume glory. For this reason, it is clearly stated in the scripture that, that which is born of the flesh is flesh, and that which is born of the spirit is spirit. (John 3:6). And you have now been made to know that it is the people of the world that marry and are given in marriage and that God created man and woman, and that for this cause shall a man leave his father and mother to join with his wife and they shall be one flesh. Wherefore they are no more two, but one flesh. And that, what God had joined together, let no man put asunder. (Read the first and the second lessons). For your information and that of the world, note that though God created male and female, the same God abides in both. That is why when the two of them are joined together they become one flesh. And being that God is the unifying force between the two no man is therefore authorized to put that union asunder.
Marriage is neither good nor bad. God designed marriage of a purpose best known to Him. Whoever is in the institution of marriage is bound by one condition and that is not to put asunder what He (God) has joined together. This is because the moment the male and the female are joined together they immediately become one. Therefore, the issue of divorce is uncalled for. And it is a very serious offense for either of the party to engage in any form of illicit affair. The binding term is eternal unification, an inseparable whole. In the flesh you claim that they are two persons, but in the spirit, they are one and you have no right to separate them. The problem facing the entire world today emanates from putting asunder what God has joined together in your individual homes. Even the scripture declares that a house divided against itself cannot stand (Read Matthew 12:25). How can you stand when you now become half after being separated from the whole? There is no way you can effectively function in isolation after God has joined you together. Your problem starts the moment you start to abandon your wife or husband for any illicit affairs. It has always been one man to one woman (one wife to one husband) and it must be so till eternity. Any deviation from this principle leads to problems and untold suffering. And the golden text has made it clear thus:
I say therefore to the unmarried and widows, It is good for them if they abide even as I. But if they cannot contain, let them marry: for it is better to marry than to burn. And unto the married I command, yet not I, But the Lord, let not the wife depart from her husband:
But and if she depart, let her remain unmarried, or be reconciled to her husband: and let not the husband put away his wife. (1st Corinthians 7:8-11).
Any deviation from this condition means that you are on the wrong path. As I have stated this to you, you must make it known to the world. You will realize that this condition is in conformity with God's command that what God has joined together, no man should put asunder.
I want to warn that God has not permitted anybody to marry two. If anybody argues this fact, tell him to support his argument with the scriptures. The truth is that if more than two persons are involved, it is no more possible to make them one but two. You will recall that when Adam needed a help, God did not create Eve separately. Rather He created Eve out of the rib of Adam. (See Genesis 2:21-23). The creation of Eve did not make them two but the same flesh. Therefore, it is a must that he that has decided to marry, should not marry more than one woman or man. It is an indisputable fact that no woman can stay alone without a man, and in the same vein the man cannot be complete without the woman. Neither a woman nor the man can progress in isolation. They need the support of the other. Except the woman has no dealings with any man, then God will come into her life and thus become her husband. If a man on the other hand stays without amorous intimacy with any woman God will step into his life and assume absolute control of all his affairs. After all, Christ is the overall husbandman for mankind.
The fact that we are stubborn, arrogant, absent minded and without any regard for the injunctions of God made us to derail from the path of God. This accounts for our suffering in the world today. These are the laid down principles that man should have followed right from creation. Today, we have violated these rules and do not allow God to have His ways in our lives. That is why we are in danger presently.
All the same, those to be counted worthy to inherit the new world would neither marry nor be given in marriage because Christ is the husbandman to them. Those who come from heaven are forbidden to marry or be given in marriage. This group has no problem whatsoever with marriage.
If you come from heaven and because you do not know yourself then you get involved in marriage, it means you are inviting problems to yourself. This is because Christ is your husband man. He is in control of all your endeavors. You therefore have no reason whatsoever to go into any other marriage relationship. A lot of people have fallen because they have refused to live according to God's original plans for them at creation. They instead, crave for material things of this world. Many of those who are heavenly have abandoned their rightful positions and have embraced the marriage institution claiming that is a necessity that one should marry or be given in marriage. If I may ask, have you actually searched yourself to be convinced that you were destined to marry or be given in marriage? Note that the moment you deviate from the guiding principle of where you actually belong, you have invited the angel of death to yourself.
THE INSTRUMENT OF GOD:
Those who are heavenly are set aside as instruments or full time labourers in the vineyard of God. They are all maids in the altar of the Almighty Father. On the contrary, the earthly persons are kept to take care of the things of this world. A combination of both reveal the glory of the Most High God. Let it be known that you commit a serious offence when you discriminate against the earthly people simply because you are heavenly. We are one in the Lord. There is no division among the creations of God. The point, however is that all are given different and specific assignments. Unfortunately, the world, the churches, people and organization lack the knowledge of this principle, hence, they continue to suffer. God does not make mistakes. He has ordained that both the heavenly and the earthly beings should work together for the general good of mankind. The heavenly beings play a protective role to the earthly, while the earthly being cater for the material needs of the heavenly ones. Thus making for peaceful coexistence and smooth sailing of life generally.
Enoch was taken up alive not because he was more righteous than everyone else on earth. It was rather to illustrate to us that there is a place in heaven, indeed a place of joy for the faithful of God to stay. Elijah was also taken up alive to heaven like Enoch. Our Lord Jesus Christ also ascended to heaven alive. Today, men are researching into the possibility of creating a home in the space but they do not know that the way of God is mysterious. The more you look, the less you see and the more you study Him, the less you understand Him. Again, people used to argue on the possibility of an untouched virgin being pregnant and subsequently giving birth to a living baby.
To further display the mysterious powers of God, He caused the Virgin Mary to be pregnant and gave birth to Our Lord Jesus Christ. Mary had no carnal knowledge of any man before the conception and until she gave birth to Our Lord Jesus Christ. All these and many more things happened according to the working of the Spirit. So, you have no cause to doubt the fact that, those born of the flesh are of the flesh and those born of spirit are spirit. (Read 1st Corinthians 15).
RE-INCARNATION OF SPIRIT
That the spirit regenerates is nothing but the truth. Re-incarnation is real. That is why you may come across someone who had a mark on the forehead before he died, coming back to the world with the same mark when the spirit regenerates. Most of us have reincarnated for an onward of five to six times.
In essence, nobody dies, man only regenerates. When you say that someone is dead, that is when he is born. At times those from heaven are transformed into this physical earth plane to undertake a specific assignment here on earth. Without this, it would be very difficult to accomplish such assignments. Take the case of our Lord Jesus Christ for instance, if He did not come in human form, how would He have accomplished His assignment of shedding blood for the remission of the sins of mankind. None would have believed Him to be the Son of God even up till this present day. And, so it should not surprise you that some heavenly people do come here and to be born of women wearing the same flesh as you. These are not ordinary human beings like you but Spirits.
THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE EARTHLY AND HEAVENLY:
The Christ Student's Natural Choir has a song which says that, that which is from the earth shall return to the earth and that which is from heaven shall return to heaven. This is nominated in 1 Corinthians 15. He who is from earth will return to the earth and this is why so many people reincarnate several times. Most of you have reincarnated three to four times. If you should give somebody a mark on the fore-head with a matchet, you will realize that, when the person reincarnates, the mark on his fore-head will still be there.
You should note that when somebody is discovered to be dead, that is when the person is born, that is when the person is transformed. You should also know that, people come from different planets. There are some people from heaven and some from the earth. Meanwhile, if our Lord Jesus Christ did not come through that system, most people would not believe Him. Up to now, people still doubt His identity.
Those who are from heaven are not human beings. They are merely coming with the human flesh; they are gods. They come to rule. The stars you find in the sky are all human beings. When you find a star moving from one place to the other, you should know that somebody has been transferred to somewhere else spiritually and so, the one will be said to be dead. When you find a very bright star shinning where a child is born, it signifies the birth of a very powerful and responsible child. The moon is the mother, the sun is the father, while the stars are the children.
You could recall how Joseph had a dream about how twelve bunches of fire-wood bowed down for his own bunch of wood and when he told his brethren, they interpreted it to mean that they were going to bow down for him. Another time, he had a dream about how the sun, moon and eleven stars bowed down for one star. When he told his parents and brethren, they were jealous because they said he meant that his father, mother and eleven brothers will bow down for him it is said that what is bound in heaven is bound on earth.
All-human experiences exist in the spiritual world before manifesting physically on earth. Whatever does not exist in the spirit can never manifest physically. Those that are earthly can never exceed a particular level and whoever is heavenly has his own boundary, and that which is to come to the earth from heaven is on an errand. Christ was on earth for only thirty three years. You should know that He was not an earthly man. He was generally very far away from human understanding. In your own case, your abode remains the earth because you are not heavenly and therefore cannot exceed the level kept for you. The time when the earthly people ruled had passed. This is the time for the heavenly people to rule because right from the time Christ was crucified every earthly thing had been phased out. This is the reason why Christ said that God has given him power to rule over all flesh. The power to rule all things had been given to Christ. This being the case, it is the heavenly bodies that rule. If Christ had not lived eternally, no man would know God and no man would direct us to God. This is the end of time and when you look into families, you will find out that, homes are not in peace. The reign of the earthly men had passed long ago. This is the reign of the heavenly ones therefore, there should be no marriage. The scripture states that since you had been borne the image of the earthly, so will you bear the image of the heavenly. There is no more problem and he who should prove stubborn by still doing things in the earthly way, will end up in trouble. This heavenly reign shall endure forever.
You have heard that in Israel, women who were caught in adultery were always slain or stoned to death. But this system of putting an end to evil acts did not work. All that the people did proved abortive. Such a time had passed. This is the reign of the heavenly beings and those who are counted worthy neither marry nor are given in marriage because it is only righteousness that abound in the new heaven and earth. You have been told that a woman who is married only focuses her mind and thought on the husband, children and other carnal things.
Most of us are like day-time robbers who challenge God openly. Because of this, most people cannot serve God. God created man for Himself, to dwell in man. But the problem now is that the temple of God has been defiled, and defiling the temple of God is the worst crime one could ever commit on earth. Can you defecate in a house built for habitation?
The activities of man now on earth elicits tears. No man thinks of God at all. Man is only interested in carnal things. Christ said "it is finished." By now, everyone is supposed to be in peace and harmony with everybody but marriage is a great hindrance. And then Christ said that He came not for peace but to set fire into all facets of life. Have you not seen now that the world is burning? He has come to reign in glory. The children of God are descending in a big way. They shall be born of women and in a short while, you will see what I am talking about.
CHRIST IS THE HUSBANDMAN:
Christ is the husbandman, while the male and female become one flesh and as one, Christ will then assume His glory. Those who have blessed their marriage are of advantage. The reason why you cannot have good children is because they are of flesh and blood. But when you allow the Holy Spirit to do His work, heavenly children will be given to you. You could know the father of a child when a woman is married to a man but you can never tell the father of a child when the mother is not married. A man could stay with his wife for ten years without having any child but a woman can stay without having any intimacy with a man and she is found with a child, and nobody would know the child except the Father.
God used Elizabeth to set a good example. God kept her till after her menopause before she could conceive and bear a child, when all hopes had gone. Now people cannot have good children because of fornication and adultery. John the baptist, Isaac and a lot of others were born as Holy children. In a little while, you shall see how children will be born in a very mysterious way.
If Joseph were not to be the husband of Mary, she would have been killed. This wisdom is a divine mystery but I will continue to reveal it to you. Read the first lesson below:
FIRST LESSON: LUKE 20:34-35
"And Jesus answering said unto them the children of this world marry, and are given in marriage: but they which shall be accounted worthy to obtain that world, and the resurrection from the dead, neither marry, nor are given in marriage:"
THE VIRGINS ARE COMING:
Heaven and earth will pass away but the word of God shall never. You can see that everything in this kingdom starts from zero. In a very short while, the children of God shall come and those to be married shall be separated from those who are not to marry. These are the ones who shall be full time workers in the vineyard of God.
The Catholics tried but could not succeed. Those who call themselves Reverend fathers and sisters marry each other. Even those who were called nuns could not fulfill their vow which is to show you that, nothing can happen when it is not the fullness of time. This is the time for the children of God to reign with their Father.
Those who are earthly get married and the heavenly people do not marry. You should know that those who were not destined to be vegetarians can never practice it. You should not force a child to accept to remain a virgin because a child who was not destined to remain a virgin cannot be one.
This is time for God to separate the sheep from the goats. All the outcast and rebels shall find their levels. It is only the children of God who will remain in their Father's Kingdom.
Those who are reported as being dead in the world are the worldly people. It is the fornicators, prostitutes and vagabonds who are faced with one problem or the other. But the real children of God in this kingdom cannot have any problem.
Christ spoke through Paul that He is desirous that everybody should be like him but that we receive different gifts from God. We all have different gifts from God. There are some people who should marry and there are others who should not. There are those who eat meat and fish while some are vegetarians. Now, those who are from above and have come to serve God are regarded as stupid people. In fact, they are not regarded as anything in the society. Some of them are forced to do what they would not like to do and if they eventually go the wrong way, death, sickness and sorrow visit them. Some of them are taken to the necromancers place and they die there. This is a prove that they are not earthly.
Anybody who comes from heaven can never tell lies and if he does, he will be in trouble. It is no crime for a single man to move with a single woman without committing fornication because when people see a single girl walking alone, men will seriously disturb her. You can now see why, when the Apostles embarked on evangelical work, they went with the sisters so that other women will be scared.
I have not come to judge the men today but if I should do, you will realize that women are better than the men. The women know that they are not supposed to be intimate with any man but they are always afraid that if they should remain that way, they would be sickly and if people should know of it all calibres of men will ask for their hands in marriage.
Right from time, the woman had always been married to only one man but men were known to be marrying more than ten wives, Solomon had seven hundred wives, and three hundred concubines. This is what other men do. You can never find the men in the house. They get married to women here and there. Read the second lesson again.
SECOND LESSON: MATTHEW 19:4-6
"And he answered and said unto them, have ye not read, that he which made them at the beginning made them male and female, And said, for this cause shall a man leave Father and Mother, and shall cleave to his wife: and they twain shall be one flesh? Wherefore they are no more twain, but one flesh. What therefore God hath joined together, let not man put asunder.
THIS IS THE LAID DOWN CONDITION:
The above excerpt reveals the laid down condition. It is erroneous to say that there are very many women. There is only one woman for one man and a man is expected to get married to only one woman till eternity. When Eve conceived, she gave birth to a pair of twins which were Cain and girl and the second set of twins was Abel and another girl. If they were to be single, they would have no sisters. The lesson you should derive from here is that, when the two come together, they become one flesh while Christ becomes their head. Now, when you become one flesh with a woman and you later send her away, you will be faced with problems. That woman whom you divorce will commit adultery if she should go to another man, and you will also commit adultery if you should get married to another woman.
All of us are under the rulership of God on earth, in heaven, in the waters and wherever we find ourselves, neither man nor woman has the right to be joined to a woman or man and later be separated. Whatever has been joined together should never be separated. In the family, where a man is counted, the woman is covered because the woman and man are one flesh. They share everything in common and should remain together till eternity.
Some people marry indiscriminately, and the result of this is usually disastrous. If you mistakenly marry a warm blooded woman while you are cold blooded, there is bound to be problems between you and your wife. I also want to intimate you that it is erroneous for one to claim ownership of his/her children, you should not even lay claim over your spouse for your all are owned by God.
Let me reveal this to you. Neither a woman nor a man can procreate an offspring. It is the man that makes the womb of the woman fruitful. That is why it is imperative that, man and woman have to be joined together. And if, for instance, a man has five sperm souls while the woman has two ova and the two of them are joined together, after the two ova must have been fertilized by the man, both of them can no longer procreate and the man's destiny is therefore hindered. In this case, there is bound to be problem in such a family.
Women have limited number of offspring to procreate while men have unlimited. That is why the man is regarded as the head of the family and the ultimate in establishing a home or family. It may interest you to note that a female child whose maiden name is traced to her father will have her father's name changed when she is married to a man and all her children will bear her husband's name. This is an indication that men are the heads of the families. This then means that, without a man, no family could be established. In most cases, the offspring always resemble their mothers in behaviors while taking after the father in appearance. This is why children are said to belong the man in any given family. In this case, they share everything in common. So, the man is always the head of the family but Christ is the overall head. The man should note that, all the property he owns equally belongs to his children, and wife. The love expressed by the father to his children and wife must be even. It is for this reason that it is said that one who fails to love his wife does not love himself. And one who loves himself has to love his wife. He too must love his children.
The gospel of today is meant to bring to your understanding that, on no account should there exist difference between couples in their matrimonial homes. The members of a family must, at all times, embrace love, peace unity and oneness and shun segregation and differences. Have you seen how God has correctly designed His things; but you, because of one thing or the other, distort such correct designs and plans?
The productivity of a woman's womb is seasonal. Seasonal in the sense that, the womb is only active one week after the completion of her menstrual flow. And after the first one week, the woman's womb is no longer productive. Any intimacy with her husband after this period is strictly for carnal comfort and fun. So, beloved, there are so many things which no other person can impart to you except the Father Himself. That is why, if you should imbibe all teachings I impart to you, you would know how to execute your everyday plans, and thereby be free from problems. Read our golden text again.
GOLDEN TEXT: 1ST CORINTHIANS 7:8-11
"I say therefore to the unmarried and widows, it is good for them if they abide even as I, But if they cannot contain, let them marry: for it is better to marry than to burn. And unto the married I command, yet not I, but the Lord, let not the wife depart from her husband: But and if she depart, let her remain unmarried, or be reconciled to her husband: and let not the husband put away his wife."
AVOID FORNICATION AND ADULTERY:
Do you now see that issues pertaining to men and women are very delicate? Should you want to live a carefree and peaceful life throughout your life time, all you need do is to abide by the above injunction. Sequel to the text above, any widow who is capable of withstanding the lust for men, should stay single till her last days on earth. But any widow who is unable to withstand such lust, is free to marry another husband instead of jumping from one man to another because of her lust and affection for men. Take for instance what prophetess Hannah did, she remained unmarried for eighty four years after her husband's death serving God. A similar feat is expected from all unmarried women. For the married women, on no account should they divorce their husbands. Should they do, they have to stay unmarried till doomsday. Such women (those who divorce their husbands), have no right to chase men all lover because of the lust in them. If such women develop in them the lust of being with a man again, they have to go back to their former husbands and marry again. God does not make provision for the procurement of divorce certificate and the return of dowry by wives to their husbands. The injunction is what God has joined together let no man put asunder.
Whoever abides by the injunctions in this sermon has no further problem in life. The injunction given is of God. Any advice given to you in support of divorce is carnal and satanic. Because God has strongly warned that, what He has joined together, let no man put asunder. Even though you are instructed in the vision, dream or prophecy to divorce your partner, do not abide by such instructions for it is from satan - the flesh. And anyone who divorces his wife or her husband must see to it that, he or she does so with the sole aim of serving God Wholeheartedly. Therefore if such a woman goes back to indulge in immorality because of lust and affection, she has derailed from the path of rectitude. For if she wants to be perfect still, she has to go back to her former husband and make peace with him but not to any other man elsewhere.
It is said: 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. (1st Corinthians 6:13).
Beloved, the act of sexual intimacy between husband and wife should be minimized and done sparingly for the body is for God and not for immorality. The bible has also enjoined us thus: The wife hath not power of her own body, but the husband: and likewise also the husband hath not power of his own body, but the wife. (1st Corinthians 7:4).
The husband and his wife should be at peace at all times. There should be no misunderstanding between them. In order for them to satisfy their lust and affection, they should meet for a while and there after they should fast and beg God for forgiveness. And should they fail to fast and beg God for forgiveness after to such affair, God would depart from them and the evil spirit is bound to take control of them. Have you now understood that, should you fail to fast each time you commit immorality you have defiled yourself which is God's abode. And by so doing you are perished for the Holy Spirit has deserted you completely. This is why you have to fast after every meeting with your wife for the sake of purifying yourselves. Whoever fails to fast as instructed has to put himself into prayer.
Some married men erroneously profess that, they are free from fornication forgetting that, they can equally commit fornication with their wives. Do you not know that, your meeting with your wife at all times constitutes fornication?
I am highlighting this fact in order that it may be well with the whole world because all our problems could be traced to this very vice. Husbands and wives should meet very sparingly and not frequently. And this should be accompanied with immediate fasting and prayer for the forgiveness of such an act. In fact, it is advisable for couples to meet once or twice a year and such a meeting should be accompanied with prayer, fasting and confession of sin in order to sanctify God's place of abode again. The act of couples meeting frequently could be likened to one being over fed with food which leads to constipation. Besides this, such couples are likely to attract the wrath of God to themselves. Furthermore, since God as the bridegroom has come, none has the right to meet with any woman. Should anyone involve in such acts he and the woman should fast, confess, so that the house of God may be once again sanctified for Him as the bridegroom to dwell in.
THE POSITION OF A MAN AND WOMAN:
Man is the head of a woman, Christ is the head of a man and God is the head of Christ. Now, the Father, Son and the Holy Ghost are here present on earth, but you still expect Christ to come down from the sky. Which Christ do you think you are expecting from the sky? Do you not hear that, Jesus Christ has been appointed the bridegroom of the universe? So, till doomsday, a fornicator and adulterer cannot see and enjoy the glory of this kingdom for such people are in hell. While those who neither marry nor are given in marriage as contained in our first lesson would inherit the kingdom of God. This gospel is not meant for all to imbibe and practice for it is meant for specific people. On the other hand, those who were meant to perish would imbibe the teaching and embrace polygamy and immorality. The people who fall into this group have no alternative, for they are the victims of circumstance, following the foot path of their forefathers. Those of the world marry and are given in marriage while those who are of the kingdom of God neither marry nor are given in marriage. Those in the latter group have no business with carnal things of this world rather, they embrace only the virtues of God.
Let those who have ears to hear. May the Lord bless His words. Amen.
