31 It hath been said, Whosoever shall put away his wife, let him give her a writing of divorcement:
32 But I say unto you, That whosoever shall put away his wife, saving for the cause of fornication, causeth her to commit adultery: and whosoever shall marry her that is divorced committeth adultery.
33 Again, ye have heard that it hath been said by them of old time, Thou shalt not forswear thyself, but shalt perform unto the Lord thine oaths:
Comment: marriage vows are an oath.
Very often children get emotionally hurt in mix&match marriages. I don't know if children are involved in this situation. My best advice is to speak to your Pastor or a Christian counselor.
John 1:3. All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made "THAT WAS MADE."
It means he created absolutely everything.
Colossians 1:16. For by him were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: all things were created by him, and for him:
God bless.

I've always interpreted that verse that way, but never knew Agathos was in there for the greek as good, boy is that needed to go with the (ALL)!! Otherwise it one can take it the other way.
"And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose."
"All means anything I want' God will work it out." (INCORRECT.)
"And we know that (ALL) things work together for (SPIRITUAL GOOD) to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose."
(God's Will.) Might not be what you wanted or expected, but it's the best thing for you!
Thanks and God bless.
What is the part " that was made mean.
I think he was referring to this.
Luke 22:36. Then said he unto them, But now, he that hath a purse, let him take it, and likewise his scrip: and he that hath no sword, let him sell his garment, and buy one.
Luke 22:38. And they said, Lord, behold, here are two swords. And he said unto them, It is enough.
God bless.
Precious friend, thanks for the Great question - Scripture Has This Departure Truth Answer:
"Therefore we are always confident, knowing that, whilst we are at home in the body, we are absent from The LORD:(For we walk by faith, not by sight:)We are confident, I say, and willing rather to be absent from the body, and to be present with The LORD." ( 2 Corinthians 5:6-8)
"For I am in a strait betwixt two, having a desire to depart, and to be with CHRIST; which is Far Better:"( Philippians 3:23)
Earnest, Please Be RichlyEncouraged, Enlightened,Exhorted, and Edified!
I agree with what you are saying. We as believers should be excited about the Lord's return. I personally think it is soon but I am also careful not to set a time frame on His return, or say that we are living in that "generation" now.
If I may share something, in Matthew 24:34, Jesus says, "This generation shall not pass, till all these things be fulfilled. There have been people over the years that have taken this verse and said the Lord is coming soon and that they were living in that "generation" time frame. But actually, the word generation itself has no association with years at all unless someone puts the years with it. Many have taken this verse and predicted the time of the rapture or the Lord's return because they took the word generation, associated with years, and it had nothing to do with years.
The word generation means race or kind of people. GENEA is the word and it means race or kind of people. Several years ago, someone once said that generation meant 40 years. And when Jerusalem became a nation in 1948, they figured that 40 years from then that the rapture would happen in 1988. Many others have also made predictions based on taking the word generation and putting years to it.
But GENEA has nothing to do with years. It's a race or kind of people. What Jesus was saying in Matthew 24 is that this race of people (Jews) shall not pass away until all these things be fulfilled. They are His elect. They are His protected people, His chosen people, and He will fulfill His promises to them.
But I do agree with you. We should be hoping and praying for the Lord to come soon. Our world is in a mess right now!

restart.
Thanks!

It great you got it all ironed out.
I had all sorts of trouble yesterday trying to link verses and that was a disaster.
Then I tried to paste and post the verses and posted them backwards "out of order " That's what I get for proof reading AFTER I send.
Come to find out from the KJBO staff is that the reason why my post was not going through was because there are certain words that are flagged and the system will reject the post, even before it has a chance to be reviewed by the staff. They never saw my original post and asked if I could reply to the email they sent me with what I had posted. After looking it over, they said it probably rejected it because of the word N#K# (same word as the athletic shoe) was used more than once. It sounded like someone in the past was using this site to advertise a product which is not allowed here. Anyway, I reworded my original post by removing one of the words and it went through.
There is not a text that specifically says that women are a female version of a deacon. If I have misled or caused confusion to you please forgive me that was not my intent.
It seems the person mentioned needs to understand the consequences of sin and God is Holy and will not ecquit the wicked.
Nahum 1:3. The LORD is slow to anger, and great in power, and will not at all acquit the wicked: the LORD hath his way in the whirlwind and in the storm, and the clouds are the dust of his feet.
Most people who say believe in God but not Christianity believe if there good deeds out weigh their bad deeds they will be OK.
And constantly compare theirselves to other sinners. They don't understand the wages of sin is death. The preaching of the cross have no effect on them.
1 Corinthians 1:18. For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is the power of God.
This is why our walk and to Love the Brothern is so important.
John 13:34-35. A new commandment I give unto you, That ye love one another; as I have loved you, that ye also love one another.
By this shall all men know that ye are my disciples, if ye have love one to another.
God bless.
