Do you still believe in the original standards of biblical marriage?
Going into marriage with a motive can be very deadly, chances are things won't always go your way or as you've planned, that's the reason most marriages crumbles before they even begin.
It's of the utmost importance before embarking on a marriage journey, you sit yourself down, carefully deliberate on these and honestly answer all the deep selfless questions on your mind.
 If my wife or husband becomes crippled due to some kind of accident, will I still love him or her? If her breasts was to be removed due to cancer, will I still love her and still be there for her? If her smooth skin was burnt in a fire accident, or she gaines Wight due to child birth, or lose her look due to old age, will I still be madly in love with her, stand and support her unconditionally till death parts us?.
 If my dear husband becomes impotent, lose his job, blind or whatever, will I still love him? Will i still be faithful and stick to him till the end?.
God forbid!! I do not wish this on anyone, but let's be honest here, many unplanned and unexpected things happen in marriage. You really need to face the fact that "marriage is filled with uncertainty" and if ever they  occur, are you prepared to handle them?, will you still love your spouse, stand by their side, faithfully committed and still execute your marital vows " FOR BETTER OR WORSE, TILL DEATH PARTS YOU?
 You don't have to be manipulated, forced or convinced into making these decisive decisions, it has to be done on your own free will. There will always be a strong struggle, conflict, sometimes confusion and this battle for conviction and decisiveness deep within your heart, if whether you're making the right decision or not. Remember love as they say is blind and it can really mess with your head, feelings and sense of reasoning, "so don't mix them up," don't make this decision based on your current feelings, trust me you will grow out of it soon, you will need something more real and stronger if you ever want to continue sustaining your marriage.
You need to be sure you seriously and selflessly made an uncompressed decision to these questions, before you tie the knot of entering the journey of no return at the altar.
 Be transparently honest with yourself. If you can't love them in very tough situations, your choice of a partner needs a serious assessment. God bless you.

Believing in the words of the Lord is never enough, it's your solemn duty as a Christian to have good knowledge on the true  standards to the words of God. You really need to know the difference between the genuine one from the twisted and manipulated ones from the pit of hell.  Most churches these days have different versions of the Bible, remember; not all churches belong to the body of Christ Jesus, and Most of them only function on assumption not realization. If a pastor or denomination leader gains wealth, power, respect and fame off preying upon the hurt, the hopes and fears of any sick, misguided, depressed, desperate or ignorant Christians, He or She is simply heartless and truly "a very wicked person."  If your wealth, respect, power or fame is gained off distorting, manipulating the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ, you are not of His body, "short and simple"!! Sowing and reaping is biblical yes, but most time, the seed the Bible is referring to, is...

Whenever people begin to study the scriptures without a prayerful, teachable spirit, they will twist the plainest passages away from their tire meaning. The whole Bible should be given to the  people just as it reads. The word of God is plain to all who study it with a prayerful heart. People are blinded to Satan's deceptions. He succeeds in displacing the Bible with human speculations. People set aside the Law of God, and the churches are in slavery to sin while they claim to be free. The false doctrine among the churches remove landmarks that the word of God has established. Few people stop when they have rejected just one truth. The majority set aside one after another of the principles of truth, until the reject the Christian faith altogether.    The errors of popular theology have driven many people to skepticism. It is impossible for them to  accept doctrines that outrage their sense of justice, Marcy, and kindness. Since the churches say that these are the ...

People now claim that Christ resurrection on Sunday made it the Christian Sabbath. But neither Christ nor His apostles gave any honor to the day. They admit that the New Testament is completely silent about "any explicit command for the Sabbath (referring here to Sunday, the first day of the week) or definite rule for its observance." The son of God came to "exalt the law and make it honorable. “Do not think that I have come to do away with the Law of Moses and the teachings of the prophets. I have not come to do away with them, but to make their teachings come true.  Remember that as long as heaven and earth last, not the least point nor the smallest detail of the Law will be done away with — not until the end of all things.  So then, whoever disobeys even the least important of the commandments and teaches others to do the same, will be least in the Kingdom of heaven. On the other hand, whoever obeys the Law and teaches others to do the same, will be great in the Kin...
