I think most have heard this story and even some who are not, church
goers.
The same is happening today, sin is rampant, adulterers, fornicators (for
those who don't understand that you are breaking God's law and the law of
the land if you indulge in love making and not be married. God requests
that you stay pure until you do marry.)- I recently attended a family wed-
ding and you could see that both bride and groom were as pure as God has
asked. Not even a trace of an alcoholic beverage. As far back as one can
remember, both sides of the family, parents, grandparents, great and great
great parents had stayed together "till death do us part."
Parents, love thy children with all thy heart so they will never be com-
pelled to divorce.
God's love is so great He will sustain you through every trial and tempta-
tion if only you will ask; He is there for you. God Bless!
