A warm greeting Dear friends and brothers
Welcome to my blog
God bless you!
You will not commit adultery.
Exodus 20:14
But I (Jesus) tell you that anyone who looks at a woman to lust for her has already committed
adultery with her in his heart.
Matthew 5:28
God proposed that the sexual relationship between a husband and wife be an exclusive and
intimate bond to strengthen the marriage relationship.
The creation story shows the wonderful purpose of God for men and women and for the marriage
bond. "And the Eternal God said: It is not good for man to be alone; I will make him a suitable help
for him.
"Then the Eternal God brought deep sleep on Adam, and while he slept, he took one of his ribs,
and closed the flesh in its place. And from the rib that the Eternal God took from man, he made a
woman, and brought her to man.
"Then Adam said: This is now bone of my bones and flesh of my flesh; This will be called Varona,
because of the man it was taken. Therefore a man shall leave his father and his mother, and shall
be joined to his wife, and they shall be one flesh "(Genesis 2:18, 21-24).
Therefore the prohibition of extramarital sex adultery was designed to protect the sanctity of
marriage and show the importance of fidelity.
Our permissive culture lightly considers adultery Some think that this concerns private life and not others. To this is added a trivialization of sexual relationships, which makes us forget that these involve the totality of our being: spirit, soul and body.
In the sermon on the mount (Matthew 5) Jesus extends the concept of adultery to the greedy
look. Adultery does not only concern our acts, but also and first of all to our heart.
The causes that lead to adultery are numerous: the weight of loneliness, the poverty of
communication in the couple, the selfish and exacerbated pursuit of pleasure ... But adultery is
never the solution to the difficulties of the couple. On the contrary, it is a cause of sadness and
suffering for the whole family. It means, above all, to sin against God, who formed this unity
between spouses, and to corrupt his work!
Pleasure is not an objective in itself; it must go together with something bigger, like
communication between spouses. The union of hearts, especially when they have the same bond
with the Lord, a good attitude, listening and giving each other, are the source of this capacity for
relationship.
The Lord has the power to heal conjugal relationships, relationships that can be hurt so easily. He wants to give the strength to forgive and live a new life in the freshness of a growing
reciprocal love.
