7.8-Marriage from God's point of view is meant to be delayed until God joins a couple together, heart and soul. Then it must be fought for.

7.8- Keep a pure heart.   Do not allow your mind to drift into lust.   When it happens seek forgiveness from God and reset to pure thoughts. Matthew 5. 27  “You have heard that it was said, ‘ You shall not commit adultery ’; 28  but I say to you that everyone who looks at a woman with lust for her has already committed adultery with her in his heart. 29  If your right eye makes you [ w ] stumble, tear it out and throw it from you; for it is better for you [ x ] to lose one of the parts of your body, [ y ] than for your whole body to be thrown into [ z ] hell. 30  If your right hand makes you [ aa ] stumble, cut it off and throw it from you; for it is better for you [ ab ] to lose one of the parts of your body, [ ac ] than for your whole body to go into [ ad ] hell. 1 Thessalonians 4. 4  Finally then, brethren, we request and exhort you in the Lord Jesus, that as you received from us instruction as to how you ought to [ a ] walk and pl...

7.7-When gifts of money are given without the heart and soul it causes low transformation, but the heart and soul given with the money and true change happens.

7.7- If we want to give a gift to God for all the blessings He has given them be reconciled with everyone.   If necessary go to them and ask forgiveness and seek their forgiveness.   If needed extend forgiveness to others as the Lord Jesus has forgiven you.   Be reconciled to all people.   This is your best and first gift to God. Matthew 5. 21  “You have heard that [ k ] the ancients were told, ‘ You shall not commit murder ’ and ‘Whoever commits murder shall be [ l ] liable to the court.’ 22  But I say to you that everyone who is angry with his brother shall be [ m ] guilty before the court; and whoever says to his brother, ‘ [ n ] You good-for-nothing,’ shall be [ o ] guilty before [ p ] the supreme court; and whoever says, ‘You fool,’ shall be [ q ] guilty enough to go into the [ r ] fiery hell. 23  Therefore if you are presenting your [ s ] offering at the altar, and there remember that your brother has something against you, 24...

7.6-Why is it necessary for some evil people to have to be controlled by the authorities?

7.6- There are people that claim that a we have no choices.  We are programmed by our nature and our nurture to be mechanical beings without the possibility of self-control.  This is wrong. Our hearts are trained by Jesus to be drawn by love to do the right thing rather than forced by law and punishment to do the right thing.   But the law is important for some do not want to use internal self control and they must be controlled by the authorities. Matthew 5. 17  “Do not think that I came to abolish the Law or the Prophets; I did not come to abolish but to fulfill. 18  For truly I say to you, until heaven and earth pass away, not [ h ] the smallest letter or stroke shall pass from the Law until all is accomplished. 19  Whoever then annuls one of the least of these commandments, and teaches [ i ] others to do the same, shall be called least in the kingdom of heaven; but whoever [ j ] keeps and teaches them , he shall be called great in the ki...
