This Bible study is the main resource that I use for couples who need marriage help, and it goes well with the "Submission" Bible Study in exhorting and helping couples fight for Biblical families. [Premarital couples: See Official Premarital Bible Study (below) for powerful Truth in pursuing purity]. When you add the Divorce and Remarriage teaching to this, it becomes even more helpful in propelling you to fight for your first marriage because God Himself defends it, makes it permanent for life no matter what, and shows that remarriage is never an option apart from death.

Husbands and Wives

The Profound Mystery of Marriage

Eph_5:22-33 EMTV Wives, subject yourselves to your own husbands, as to the Lord, 23 because the husband is head of the wife, as also Christ is head of the church; and He is the Savior of the body. 24 But just as the church is subject to Christ, so also the wives be to their own husbands in everything. 25 Husbands, love your own wives, just as Christ also loved the church and gave Himself for her, 26 in order that He might sanctify her, cleansing her by the washing of water by the word, 27 that He might present her to Himself a glorious church, not having spot or wrinkle or any such thing, but that she should be holy and blameless. 28 So husbands ought to love their own wives as their own bodies; he that loves his own wife loves himself. 29 For no one ever hated his own flesh, but nourishes and cherishes it, just as also the Lord does the church. 30 For we are members of His body, of His flesh and of His bones. 31 "For this reason a man shall leave his father and mother and be joined to his wife, and the two shall become one flesh." 32 This is a great mystery, but I speak in reference to Christ and to the church. 33 Nevertheless you also individually, let each one love his own wife as himself, and let the wife see that she respect her husband.

Eph_6:1-4 EMTV Children, obey your parents in the Lord, for this is right. 2 "Honor your father and mother," which is the first commandment with a promise: 3 "that it may be well with you, and you may live long on the earth." 4 And fathers, do not provoke your children to anger, but bring them up in the discipline and admonition of the Lord… 12 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual forces of evil in the heavenlies.

Col_3:16-21 WEB Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly; in all wisdom teaching and admonishing one another with psalms, hymns, and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your heart to the Lord. 17 Whatever you do, in word or in deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father, through him. 18 Wives, be in subjection to your husbands, as is fitting in the Lord. 19 Husbands, love your wives, and don't be bitter against them. 20 Children, obey your parents in all things, for this pleases the Lord. 21 Fathers, don't provoke your children, so that they won't be discouraged.

Tit_2:4-5 EMTV so that they may urge the young women to be lovers of their husbands, lovers of their children, 5 temperate, pure, homemakers, good, submitting to their own husbands, lest the word of God be blasphemed.

Pastor

1Ti_3:4-5 EMTV one ruling his own house well, having his children in submission with all reverence; 5 (for if one does not know how to rule his own house, how will he take care of the church of God?);

Deacons

1Ti_3:11-12 EMTV Likewise their wives must be reverent, not slanderers, temperate, faithful in all things. 12 Let deacons be the husbands of one wife, ruling their children well, and their own houses.

The Courageous Wife, Suffering Under a Lost Husband

1Pe_3:1-7 EMTV Wives, likewise, subject yourselves to your own husbands, so that even if some are disobedient to the word, that by the conduct of their wives, without a word, they shall be gained for Christ, 2 when they observe your chaste conduct with fear. 3 Of whom let it not be the outward adorning of braiding of hair, and wearing of gold, or of putting on of fine clothes, 4 rather let it be the hidden person of the heart, with the incorruptible attitude of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is very precious before God. 5 For thus formerly, the holy women who hoped on God also adorned themselves, subjecting themselves to their own husbands, 6 as Sarah obeyed Abraham, calling him lord, of whom you became children, when you do good and are not afraid of any terror. 7 Husbands, likewise, live together according to knowledge as with a weaker vessel, with the wife, showing her honor as also a fellow heir of the grace of life, in order that your prayers may not be hindered.

Rth_4:11 – Blessing to Make You as Those Who Worked Mightiness in Ephrathah

Coming of Age – Bar Mitzvah

Many Other date(s) (seen below); 9/9/19 (Major Reformating/Revission); 10/20/19

Quick Summary of Growing Up

Bar Mitzvah

Bar Mitzvah is when a male child in Jewish culture comes of age. Although most observe this at 13 today, it seems to have been originally recognized at 12 years old–which is what Jesus, His parents, and monotheistic society observed and recognized in Luk_2:42. (Note the appropriate significance of 12 among Monotheists.)

No Bat Mitzvah, Only Transfer or Dismissal

It should be noted that women do not come of age. Women do not have a bar mitzvah, and it is only more recently in history that apostate liberals have invented a shameful bat mitzvah in their degradation of women. Any concept like this is liberal and unfounded in Biblical history. While boys become men, girls are transferred from their fathers to their husbands (See all of Num_30:1-16). Women only become independent when their men are out of the picture (example: death or abandonment).

Honoring Parents is Life-Long

It is also important to note that while boys “graduate” into becoming men, from being under authority to becoming authorities, no son or daughter ever graduates from honoring their parents (Eph_6:1-3; Col_3:20).

When you are a child, honoring parents especially includes obeying them, and when you are an adult it includes providing for them / giving them money/value -- as seen in Divorce and Remarriage Repentance Revolution).

Requirements for Boys to Become Men

· Appointed time by father (or sometimes their current authority, if adopted for example?) -- Gal_4

· Not being under tutors or guardians (i.e. no need/dependence upon being under supervision) -- Gal_4
(comp. Jesus stayed in a city by Himself -- Luk_2)

· Autonomous Responsibility (which is prerequisite for Autonomous Authority) -- seen throughout numerous passages below

· Put away childish things -- 1Co_13

Child Play = Things of a Child

9/13/19; 10/20/19

Child Play is Biblical & Distinct

Zec_8:4 WEB Thus says Yahweh of Armies: "Old men and old women will again dwell in the streets of Jerusalem, every man with his staff in his hand for very age.

Zec_8:4 Thus says the Lord Almighty: ‘There shall yet dwell old men and old women in the streets of Jerusalem, everyone holding his staff in his hand for age.

Zec_8:4 τάδε λέγει κύριος παντοκράτωρ Ἔτι καθήσονται πρεσβύτεροι καὶ πρεσβύτεραι ἐν ταῖς πλατείαις Ιερουσαλημ, ἕκαστος τὴν ῥάβδον αὐτοῦ ἔχων ἐν τῇ χειρὶ αὐτοῦ ἀπὸ πλήθους ἡμερῶν·

Zec_8:5 WEB The streets of the city will be full of boys [יְלָדִ֖ים (y'ladiyM) ???] and girls [וִֽילָד֑וֹת (viyladOT) ???] playing [מְשַׂחֲקִ֖ים (m'SaHakiyM)] in its streets."

Zec_8:5 And the broad places of the city shall be filled with boys [παιδαρίων] and girls [κορασίων] playing [παιζόντων] in its streets.’

Zec_8:5 καὶ αἱ πλατεῖαι τῆς πόλεως πλησθήσονται παιδαρίων καὶ κορασίων παιζόντων ἐν ταῖς πλατείαις αὐτῆς.

Zec_8:6 WEB Thus says Yahweh of Armies: "If it is marvelous in the eyes of the remnant of this people in those days, should it also be marvelous in my eyes?" says Yahweh of Armies.

Zec_8:6 Thus says the Lord Almighty: ‘If it shall be impossible in the sight of the remnant of this people in those days, shall it also be impossible in My sight?’” Says the Lord Almighty.

Zec_8:6 τάδε λέγει κύριος παντοκράτωρ Διότι εἰ ἀδυνατήσει ἐνώπιον τῶν καταλοίπων τοῦ λαοῦ τούτου ἐν ταῖς ἡμέραις ἐκείναις, μὴ καὶ ἐνώπιον ἐμοῦ ἀδυνατήσει; λέγει κύριος παντοκράτωρ.

This blessing of (happy) “playing” children in the streets is idealized as a beautiful restoration of redeemed society in Jerusalem.

Notice that there is something distinct between child play and adult activity in society which is being idealized in this passage.

Adult Playing Examples

· “Playing” Instruments

· Worship/dancing like David (“ומשׂחק”/παίζοντα in 1Ch 15:29 -- same as Zec_8:5 Heb/Gr)

· This “playing” terminology works in Hebrew Greek and English.

· Marriage celebration like Isaac

Child Play vs Adult Play

· Healthy child play particularly means creatively practicing things that get you ready for being an adult.

· Healthy adult play means celebrating good things worthy of praise and happiness.

· Adults can also “creatively practice things” to gain new skills and such, but this is usually called gym-nize/exercise/train in the Bible.

· While adults are said to “play” in the Bible

· There is a required social transition if a Monotheist was to pass from being a Zec_8:5 child to a Zec_8:4 older man or woman.

· These comparisons are generalizations, but they still effectively help us consider the distinct social realities between children and grown-ups.

The Mockery of Childing a Man

· Law of Moses prescribes it as a shaming punishment for some guilty men (ex. Deu_22)

· If done to a holy man it deserves death: 2Ki_2:23, etc.

Autonomous Responsibility & Authority

For the concept (and language) of “Autonomy” See: Rom_2:

Num_30:2 – “Of Age” Means you're personally responsible for your own actions, especially in view of God's Law

(See all of Num_30:1-16)

1Co_11:3 – The head / authority of every (grown) man [ἀνδρὸς] is Anointed One (“Christ”) (while the head of woman is still man, even after she is “grown”)

Greek: ἀνδρὸς – this does not include boys [παῖδας], girls [παιδισκῶν], or even women [γυναῖκές], but every MAN [ἀνδρὸς].

Where do you stand on the issue of abortion?

3/13/17 (recompiled)

It goes without saying that the Bible opposes murder of every kind, even specifically including abortion.

Abortion is murder. Killing a baby inside of the womb is no less murder than killing one outside, and murderers do not go to Heaven, (1Jo 3:15) unless they repent from being a murderer.

The Bible says that killing a baby inside the womb is a murder worthy of death, therefore, it is a murder worthy of death: Exo 21:22-25; Rom 1:32. Many other times as well, the Bible recognizes that a baby in the womb is alive and even capable of spiritual activity: Lk 1:24, 26, 36, 39-44, 56-57

Of course, I would never be the one to cast a stone to enforce such a just death penalty, lest I also be found to have been a murderer in my heart at one time in my past, (and so condemn myself). [These things are verified in these Scriptures: Mat 5:21-22; 1John 3:15; John 8:7; Luk 9:56]. In fact, I would feel privileged to have a part in helping someone recover from participating in such a horrible experience.
