Marriage was created by God and, like everything else He established, can ONLY work the right way if it's HIS way. The reason for the high divorce rates in the world is that we are all trying it "My Way!" -- OUR way. This high rate is evidence of the failure of our way. His way is that marriage be a threesome experience: man + woman + God.
Insightful Bible-based meditations and muses, in the form of strategic poetry, prose, song lyrics and music, on strategic spiritual issues of today and ‘our coming tomorrow’. See my profile below the archive.
Welcome~
Hello and Welcome~
The world is blind to these SEVEN, pivotal facts:
1. The Bible communicates Heaven’s 'multi-millennial, strategic plan for humanity'.
2. There are SEVEN ages appointed for humanity.
3. We are nearing the end of the THIRD age, a pivotal turning point in this strategy.
4. A GREAT falling away from the Christian faith is predicted during the ending days of this THIRD age, as a result of backsliding and general lukewarmness among the heretofore faithful. Look around and this you will clearly see.
5. Biblical prophecies have been and remain seeds of human history.
6. Yet-fulfilled prophecies, unfolding apace, are worthy of diligent study.
7. Now is the time to get and stay on ‘the right side of Bible prophecy’.

Marriage: A Threesome Experience
Marriage was created by God and, like everything else He established, can ONLY work the right way if it's HIS way.

Fall in love with Christ first! Only then will you know HOW to love another. My definition of love is being willing to lay down your life....hopes...,wants for another,
ReplyDeleteCan't argue a bit with that! Blessings~
DeleteGod+man+woman
DeleteOnly God can fix what did not start out as God first, I believe he gives us a second or third chance to get it right.
Motivation in a marriage comes in many forms. Mine was the need, I'm leaving it like that :-)
I like your formula, and fully agree God is a second and third chance God. Consider the life of Sampson and the many times he messed up awfully. pastor Furrow says this proves the carnality of mankind does not necessarily restrict God in accomplishing His purposes. Thanks for your comment.
DeleteGreat read…the title aroused my curiosity as I’m sure it did others…skyrocketing it to the #1 spot.
ReplyDeleteRather than 'killing the cat', I trust your curiosity birthed some inspiration to lean on God's Grace. Thanks.
DeleteThanks, John. Well written!
ReplyDeleteThanks for reading, and for your comment.
DeleteVery inspiring .
ReplyDeleteMerci beaucoup~. As with anything, easier said/written than done, but if we stay in His Grace, all things are possible. The perpetual challenge is to abide in His Grace. Lord knows I NEED Grace to even ABIDE in Grace! ;o)
DeleteI really liked the concept of marriage as a Three Some, Man+ Woman + God and his way.
