Becoming One

Written by Joyce C. Lock


Continued from page 1

Did I say to run out and divorce them? No.

Just, don't cheat on God to fall with your mate.

"No servant can serve two masters: for either he will haterepparttar one, and loverepparttar 130755 other; or else he will hold torepparttar 130756 one, and despiserepparttar 130757 other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon," Lu. 16:13.

Adam's sin was that he chose his mate above God. And God named both male and female 'Adam', Ge. 5:2.

Only God knows how to defeat Satan every time. Therefore, ifrepparttar 130758 Spirit does not guide a couple toward agreement, God is not likely in it. A warm assurance andrepparttar 130759 comfort of unity come when both agree on His leading. Only then canrepparttar 130760 three walk together.

"Again I say unto you, That if two of you shall agree on earth as touching any thing that they shall ask, it shall be done for them of my Father which is in heaven. For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I inrepparttar 130761 midst of them," Mt. 18:19-20.

When we seek God's guidance together, we obtain divine protection.

Another way of looking at it is this.

Father (head) / / / Son Holy Spirit

Jesus (head) / / /

Husband Wife

"I in them, and thou in me, that they may be made perfect in one; and thatrepparttar 130762 world may know that thou hast sent me, and hast loved them, as thou hast loved me."

Jn. 17:23

Only when we become one with God can we become one with each other; one in heart, soul, purpose, body, mind, and strength.
