Dear Romance Lovers,
Welcome to our first Advice Corner post of 2019.
Thank God for a New Year!
Over the last few years, I have written on various issues affecting marriages. To read any of my previous posts, click here.
I hope you had a fabulous Christmas and a great holiday.
For me, it was a lovely time spent with my family at home and in Church.
Today, I have a question for all families: Is God in Your Marriage? If no, read on.
Pre - Wedding for Christians
Before you say I do, it is important that you discuss how to raise your children in the way of the Lord.
In my opinion, religion is often a deal breaker. In many cases, it is one of the biggest causes of confusion, tension and break up of marriages.
Grave Mistake
Why do more and more parents whose grandparents are Christians in the western world ignore raising their children in the Christian way?
Have you ever seen Muslim children raised without reading the Koran and practising their faith?
It was only when my family and I moved to London that I heard people claim to be atheists. They say they do not believe in God.
Whether or not anyone believes these facts, it remains the truth.
1.God created the world and human beings.
2. God sent Jesus Christ, to save us from our sins so that we may have eternal life.
3. Those who believe Jesus Christ died to save them from their sins will not perish, but have eternal life with God in Heaven.
4. Those who reject or do not believe Jesus Christ saved them from their sins, will face eternal condemnation in hell with their master, Satan.
5. God is the author of marriages, starting with Adam and Eve.
My Question
How do married couples think that not praying to God or raising their children to believe in Jesus Christ as their Saviour is the best thing to do?
Some say the bible is old-fashioned. That is the biggest lie ever told to deceive and prevent many from knowing the truth.
Truths about the Holy Bible
1. The words written in the Holy Bible are the only effective weapon you have to withstand the devil and save you from destruction.
2. The word of God is quick and powerful when you speak them, but you have to believe and confess that Jesus Christ is the Way, the Truth and the Life.
All you have to do is look at London, the United States and other places in the world to see the calamity unleashed by children who are raised without the fear of God.
Only a God-less teenager or adult will pick up a weapon and kill his fellow man or woman.
God says LOVE your neighbour as yourself. If the teenagers who carry knives and guns have been taught all their lives to respect and adore God, to respect humanity and love others as they love themselves, it will be impossible to turn them into killing machines.
Remember
1. Parents and grandparents, you have Godly responsibilities to bring up your children, who are gifts from God in the nurture and discipline of the Lord.
2. You need to TEACH your children about God's love.
3. Teach them to respect and be tolerant of other people's views, presence and differences.
Do Not
1. Raise children who take pride in saying, "I don't go to Church," or "I don't believe in God" and "I don't know God".
2. Condemn yourself because of the wicked things you have done. Jesus Christ died for you: adulterer, sex-maniac, murderer, thief, prostitute, liar, unbeliever, it doesn't matter what you did in the past, God loves you.
Have Faith
All you have to do is go to a private place - your office, the toilet, your bedroom etc.,
1. Tell God about your sins (confession).
2. Ask God to forgive you all your sins and wash you clean with the blood of Jesus Christ.
3. Tell God you believe Jesus Christ, His beloved son, died to save you from your sins and he rose from the grave so that you may have eternal life.
4. Turn away from your sins and ask God for help to start afresh (Repentance).
5. Tell God you are ready to know Him and to serve Him, but you need His help.
6. To get to know God, buy a Holy Bible or download one for free on your phone through your App Store.
To Build Your (and your children's) Faith
2. When you are confused about what you read, ask God to interpret so you can understand.
3. Also a great thing to help you build your faith is for you to join a Bible-believing Church near you. Attend Bible study.
4. Bring up your children to know and LOVE God.
Note
There will be trials, temptations, challenges, but you have to believe God has your best interests no matter how tough things get.
I pray for God's abiding presence on you and your family.
