1 Corin. 7:8 To the unmarried and widows I say that it is best for them to remain as I am. 9 But if they do not have self-control, let them get married. For it is better to marry than to burn with sexual desire.
We live in the a nation of Bible Fanatics. People who defy all the elements of the bible to adapt those that suits their purpose, then use those to manipulate the society or their followers in the name of God.Jim Jones used the same system to poison a number of his believers. Now we have congregations that are full of Divorcees, Singles, with roving eyes and sexual desires on their minds.
Lately, quite a few famous, So-Called Bishops, Elders, or Preachers have featured in Divorced situations, while others, accused of molesting children. I can imagine, with so many single ladies, available in these congregations, and at these preachers' disposal, it is possible to divorce and indulge in the societal norms. The molestation issue, on the other hand, with ample free samples from the flock, some chose to explore the forbidden territory.
What has become of the society we live in? To most it is better to claim to be a christian when it suits our purpose while we live a pleasure principled life style. Just in case, there is a God, they are covered, but if there's no God, they have lived a fulfilling life. Sheep, following a blind shepherd will all perish, over the cliff, and plunge, all to their death.
A society without morals is a dysfunctional society. A religious organization that defy biblical values to appease it members or to increase membership, although may prosper, but the mold within will one day expose the truth.
Just a thought.
