Why buy the cow, when the milk is FREE. . .

As I begin today's segment. please allow me to clarify: I am certainly not calling a woman a cow. It is just an expression that I'm sure you've heard in times past.

"Why buy the cow" refers usually to the man or woman that wants an intimate relationship without the marital commitment. The " free milk" as well refers to the passionate companionship with sex, which incidentally is known by another name called fornication.

Although in some cases of sexual relations prior to a marriage, it is acceptable, as long as they intend to marry. Surprised? . . . .don't be: I Corinthians: 7:35, And this I speak for your own profit; not that I may cast a snare upon you, but for that which is comely, and that ye may attend upon the Lord without distraction. But if any man think that he behaves himself uncommonly toward his virgin, if she is passed the flower of her age, and need so require, let him do what he will, he sins not: let them marry. (didn't know that did you?)

As you can see, even the Lord knows that we are human and have passions that will always need to be addressed. Nevertheless, it is still not permission to have free wild uncontrollable sex; now that my friends is called concupiscence.

Every act and aspect of your life will fall under a guideline out of the Word of God, be it good or evil.

When you participate in these sexual acts outside of the bond of marriage, you are violating God's law. That's right, whether it matters to you or not, you are sinning.

Love will mandate marriage and commitment; on the other hand, Lust will require only satisfaction for the moment. You need to know the difference. Love is the Ecstasy of your emotion and heart, where Lust is just the satisfying of the thrill and then you're done. Love is liberating where Lust is bondage just as many many relationships are caught up in a lust-fest., without Love and certainly not commitment. Therefore, no need for marriage. If you love, you will want to buy into the marriage experience. If not, . . . . well let's just let God be the final judge!

Allow me to close with this: Hebrews 13:4: Marriage is honourable in all, and the bed undefiled: but whoremongers and adulterers God will judge, says the Word of God!

You didn't really think the milk was free, did you? (smiles) Come on, get married, besides, it's good, it's right, and it's God's way!

Once again, you are Blessed!
