Adultery Causes Pain

Adultery is an epidemic and it has been around for years. It plays a big part of the problems that face many families today. The spouses that are committing adultery do not realize the effects it has on their spouses and children. They don’t’ realize that there are consequences that surround the issues of adultery.

Society today withdraws from the word of God. People do not consider the word of God as words to live by. God is the same today, yesterday and forever more. The scripture (the word of God) teaches us that adultery is wrong. There is a standard that we must set for our children in order for them to grow up with good moral character.

Those of us who realize that God is a superior being are to stand up and speak out against immoral conduct instead of condoning this type of behavior. We make up excuses so that people can practice wrong doing. We look the other way because it does not effect us. The truth of the matter is that adultery effects everyone involved. It effects the welfare system, school system, the innocent spouse and the innocent children and the financial status of a home. Instead of two incomes there is only one or the housewife has to get on welfare in order to survive because the main bread winner has runoff with the mistress and left his family to fend for themselves. Yes, the housewife can get a job and fend for her and his children. There is the cost of daycare and doctor bills and other expenses that will accrue so welfare is still needed.

Is there one left that will stand up for moral values. Back in the day husbands would take care of there families and be the head of there households. They didn’t complain about the bills they made do with what little that had to survive. They realized and was taught it was the man’s responsibility to take care of their household. Society today makes you feel in order to be someone important you have to have money. We fall under that peer pressure not realizing that it takes you nowhere.

Men and women think about the effects adultery has on your children and society. The very act of adultery causes a breakdown in the family. Whether we realize it are not, men should be the head of their households. If there is a loose screw in the head the foundation is weak and eventually the screw will fall out if it is not tighten. The foundation of the home will fall apart leaving an empty void in the home where the man should be which is the head of the household.

Be prayful with an open heart and mind. Let the spirit of God led you into all truth. Remember your salvation and as will as your family are counting on you to do the right thing. One wrong decision can alter your life and change the course of your future forever rather good or bad.

But I would have you know, that the head of every man is Christ; and the head of the woman is the man; and the head of Christ is God. I Corinthians 11:3

Wives, submit yourselves unto your own husbands, as unto the Lord. For the husband is the head of the wife, even as Christ is the head of the church: and he is the Saviour of the body. Therefore as the church is subject unto Christ, so let the wives be to their own husbands in every thing. Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself for it; That he might sanctify and cleanse it with the washing of water by the word, That he might present it to himself a glorious church, not having spot, or wrinkle, or any such thing; but that it should be holy and without blemish. So ought men to love their wives as their own bodies. He that loveth his wife loveth himself. For no man ever yet hated his own flesh; but nourisheth and cherisheth it, even as the Lord the church: For we are members of his body, of his flesh, and of his bones. For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and shall be joined unto his wife, and they two shall be one flesh. This is a great mystery: but I speak concerning Christ and the church. Nevertheless let every one of you in particular so love his wife even as himself; and the wife see that she reverence her husband. Ephesians 5:22-33

The Lord expresses his word that a man should love his wife and be kind to her. He should not hurt or cause pain of any kind on his wife and woman the same goes for you. The worse pain is the pain of the heart this pain you can not see with your natural eye. Man or woman put yourself in your spouses shoes how would you feel if the shoe was on the other foot and they committed adultery. Would it cause you grief and pain think about it?
