Accept Your Agreement - Overlook an Offense

Today’s scripture is Matthew 19 and Proverbs 19 Matthew 19 – Jesus Talks About Marriage When Jesus had finished saying these things, he left Galilee and went into the region of Judea to the other side of the Jordan. 2 Large crowds followed him, and he healed them there. 3 Some Pharisees came to him to test him. They asked, “Is it lawful for a man to divorce his wife for any and every reason?” 4 “Haven’t you read,” he replied, “that at the beginning the Creator ‘made them male and female,’[a] 5 and said, ‘For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and the two will become one flesh’[b]? 6 So they are no longer two, but one flesh. Therefore what God has joined together, let no one separate.” 7 “Why then,” they asked, “did Moses command that a man give his wife a certificate of divorce and send her away?” 8 Jesus replied, “Moses permitted you to divorce your wives because your hearts were hard. But it was not this way from the beginning. 9 I tell you that anyone who divorces his wife, except for sexual immorality, and marries another woman commits adultery.” 10 The disciples said to him, “If this is the situation between a husband and wife, it is better not to marry.” 11 Jesus replied, “Not everyone can accept this word, but only those to whom it has been given. 12 For there are eunuchs who were born that way, and there are eunuchs who have been made eunuchs by others—and there are those who choose to live like eunuchs for the sake of the kingdom of heaven. The one who can accept this should accept it.” Proverbs 19 A false witness will not go unpunished, and whoever pours out lies will not go free. A person’s wisdom yields patience; it is to one’s glory to overlook an offense. A foolish child is a father’s ruin, and a quarrelsome wife is like the constant dripping of a leaky roof. Whoever is kind to the poor lends to the Lord, and he will reward them for what they have done.   Support this show by placing your Amazon Orders through THIS LINK (a portion of the sale goes to the show - THANKS).
