Re: word.'marriage'. The Great Infinite One has given wonderful guidelines for happy relationships, however being as pigheaded as most of us are, we first must try our way, right?

Happy relationships are made when all parties are of the higher consciousness realm. It is only then that creation can carry on, creation of a deepening meaning in the relationship.(*). Without that it deprecates right from the start.

When a man and woman are committed physically to each other, this is marriage in the original meaning:.Genesis 2:24,25 "Therefore when a man leaves his father and his mother and cleaves.(stick with, be committed).unto his wife.(original is 'woman').they become one flesh.".From the physical union a unique relationship develops, different for every set of couples. 

There were great women with wonderful relationships recorded in the Bible.

The Great Infinite One is comprised of only love. He wants us to have loving harmonious relationships, not relationships made up of rules and regulations.(Romans 13:10), but rather, to be led of the heart, having love expressed from the heart:.Ephesians 6:6. 

The woman came through the man, was of the man.(1Corinthians 11:8-10), created for him. In this.(the reason for her creation).there is special consideration. 

From the Infinite One's spiritual viewpoint, once we have Christ's spiritual nature of love, we are all one:.Galatians 3:28; Acts 15:9; John 10:16. A woman's willingness to fulfil that which she overstands to be her distinct purpose, is completely under her privileged consideration.

Do you possess an unselfish desire to satisfy the other? Learn and use these 3 phrases: "I'm sorry"; "I forgive you"; "I love you". 

In a relationship each is accountable to the other, otherwise it will never function as a single unit and without that, there is no strength in it.

A couple reaching maturity in a relationship will arrive at the place where neither of them have any wants or needs, desired or expressed, because fulfilment of the other is always the priority in the relationship.

A couple I know, together for over 20 years said this about their relationship. They decided that a key to maintaining a vibrant relationship was to always be spoiling each other. They constantly give presents, surprises, help, talk time, sexual favors; doing all each can to smother the other with affection in all its various forms; spoiling one another. Nice!.Ecclesiastes 9:9; 1John 4:7. Such couples exhibit an affair of honor and loyalty by showing affection, each being a recurring source of cheer, encouragement and enjoyment to the other.

humanity cannot 'create'.in the sense.the term is used in Genesis 1:1. We can only 'fashion' or 'form' things out of existing material. The closest we come to physical creating is in reproducing ourselves. This is perhaps one reason why the devil wants to pervert and destroy the standard for sexuality that the Infinite One designed.(and everything else that is good), because it is deeply connected to our being made in the image of the Infinite One. 

On abusive relationships. The key to a loyal mate and the key to building love in a relationship. 

Questions -I'm in a marriage by nothing more than name alone, but wondered if I should divorce after reading Romans 7:2.

Paul here was using an analogy of the Old Testament Mosaic Law to show it is now dead and we are free of it. What leads to divorce is similar.

God divorced His nation ancient Israel:.Jeremiah 3:8. Divorce was allowed under the strictness of the old covenant; how much more then under the new covenant?.John 10:10. Divorce occurs in nature all the time.

If one is 'condemned' to a 'marriage' from hell, he or she hardly can live abundantly and in joy and peace:.Romans 5:16. A bill of divorcement under the ancient Mosaic Law could be issued to sever the relationship if need be so:.Deuteronomy 24:1-4; Mark 10:2-9.

Guess who designed the atom? They break their bond and divorce and attach to others.

If the relationship/marriage is not 'clean' and there is little or no hope for improvement:.Romans 6:18,19. 

Some churches today are fanatical about divorce, greatly frowning on a divorced person even dating. A divorced person in a group such as this can develop a state of guilt. It is all just the religious part of the negative mass mind of humanity feeding into religious leaders who propagate their error.prone thinking onto parishioners.

For the person in such a situation, realize the reason leaving one another is so high priced is because it is worth it! Ha ha! Really though, every cloud does have its silver lining and this will become evident in time.

Some churches improperly utilize Matthew 19:6. It is saying that if a couple is happy together, the Creator's concern is that any authority should not separate them. The relationship is either bound or broken, with or without paying money to the state for a license for sex.

-Does the grace of God come because one is willing to keep the commandments? 

Some religious 'leaders' today, especially in some fanatical eastern religions and yes, some in churches in western Christianity too, deal more harshly with each other than was required under the defunct Old Testament laws. Under those laws, a divorce would occur by a written down intention to do so and it was over. But in this New Testament time of grace, where it should be easier and with more freedom, some pastors, misunderstanding the heart of the Infinite One, advise church members toward adhering to a bad marriage relationship. Doctrines of demons they are.

Under the ancient Mosaic Law, the poor had great consideration, way more than today. Unfortunately today, it seems to be an 'every man for himself' world. It was not even that way under the Mosaic Law. People were out to help one another, to bring others up to the same level they enjoyed. Now, it's grab as much as one can at any cost to anyone except me:.Proverbs 11:17-21 "The merciful man does good to his own soul, but he that is cruel troubles his own flesh. The wicked work a deceitful work, but to him that sows righteousness shall be a sure reward. As righteousness tends to life, so he that pursues evil pursues it to his own death. They that are of a froward heart are abomination to the Lord, but such as are upright in their way are his delight.(your choice). Though hand join in hand, the wicked shall not be unpunished, but the seed of the righteous shall be delivered." Psalms 37:26,27 "He is ever merciful and lends and his seed is blessed. Depart from evil and do good and dwell for evermore."

Such are controllers, not leaders:.Matthew 20:25-28 "But Emmanuel called them unto him and said, You know that the princes of the Gentiles exercise dominion over them and they that are great exercise authority upon them. But it shall not be so among you; but whosoever will be great among you, let him be your minister; And whosoever will be chief among you, let him be your servant. Even as the Son of man came not to be ministered unto, but to minister and to give his life a ransom for many."

"Everyone's life is under someone's control; it might as well be under your own so that you can direct your destiny."....Harry Tucker Senior Enterprise Strategy Adviser, Microsoft

Emmanuel was against the frivolous putting away of another:.Matthew 19:9. This verse also infers that one is therefore free for another relationship if one's partner has been joined sexually to another. And what if she or he just up and takes off on you?.1Corinthians 7:15.

-If one is 'married'.(committed and dedicated).strictly to Christ, can they, in good conscience, have a sexual relationship with another?.Romans 7:3,4.

-In Christ are we not free from all other spiritual relationships? 1Corinthians 9:19; Galatians 3:28; 4:31.

-Should we marry again?

Galatians 5:1.(I realize the context is talking about the old covenant law, but nevertheless, for many men and women in some marriages, it is bondage and not abundant joy), but also 1Peter 2:16. Sometimes the best way to 'fix' it, is to nullify it, as God did with the old covenant. 

Paul says in 1Corinthians 7:15 that if one's unbelieving mate departs, one is now free as God's heart is for us to live in peace. And in verse 13 there, it says that if an unbeliever.('unbeliever' is one with no real 'agape' love; God is love and His nature is now our nature if we have decided to be like Him:.1John 4:17 ".....as he is, so are we in this world.").is pleased to dwell with you, then you should stay together. Why? If he or she is treating you terribly, then obviously he or she is not pleased to dwell with you. The relationship has become an 'empty box'. The word in the original Greek for 'depart' is 'to separate oneself from'. If your mate's heart has gone to another, he or she has separated from your heart, from your love.

Love is spiritual. Let us compare spiritual things with spiritual and not enforce the spiritual with physical things:.1Corinthians 2:13.(the word 'comparing' here means 'to fit jointly together'). 

Some couples have so much faith and hope in each other, that becomes the 'spiritual' part of their life. This itself, an addiction. 

Being codependent rather than spiritually activated.(1Peter 1:16-22), ties them to each other in such a way as to hinder spiritual growth:.1Corinthians 3:11. This is defiling oneself:.1Corinthians 3:16,17,21,23. Some are so codependent, they refrain from independence.

The Infinite Conscious One we often refer to as God, does not want clones. That's why we are all different expressions of this infinite intelligent energy, each having a different relationship with the Creator, a connection that fades the more we neglect it, yet is always there, waiting. In ancient Job's case, God waited long enough. Don't get me wrong. Job was a very good man who did many really good works in sincerely caring for and helping others. But one thing was missing in Job's life. What was it?

Your particular deep heartfelt spirit, a sort of, your thinking about what your self is hinting to you, is different from others. We are all different and meant to be that way. Not that we should be different by being evil, but different in ways of God expressing as us and that's all and only ever will be, the ways of good, because it's of God.

There is no one like you or ever will be. In this deepest expression of you on Earth is the Creator expressing as through the purpose for your existence here and now in this world. The Creator is not the energy. He is that from which energy and all made of it comes from. All things are made with the creative ability of His spirit of wholeness, often called the Holy Spirit, the wholeness of the Creator. It's almost unimaginable what God really is.

The Creator is the Silence beyond all matter, but from which all matter is formed, including us, the different expressions or different frequency patterns.(for, all is frequency).out of the same base we are all in:.Acts 17:28; 2Corinthians 5:18; Ephesians 3:9; Jeremiah 23:24.."As a tree is the tree part of God, as the sky is the sky part of God, you are the you part of God."....ancient masters.

When in the same consciousness the Creator has, then, while on that pathway of spiritual growth, we see the 'light at the end of the tunnel' as it were, we see by coming to comprehend our ongoing destiny, that of a never ending journey into increasingly fulfulling realms of existence. For example, climbing up stairs, you take one level at a time or maybe a couple:.John 14:2.

Isaiah 57:15 "For this says the high and lofty One that inhabits eternity, whose name is Holy, I dwell in the high and holy place with him also that is of a contrite and humble spirit..."

Consider the diversity in nature. The Creator doesn't need clones. Monoculture is not the way of the universe, but we never do learn it seems:.Ecclesiastes 7:29. Corporations are fanatical about sameness. Same taste of a fast food restaurant in any restaurant or even country. Herd all the animals in the same cramped quarters; feed them all the same manufactured chemicalized frankenfeed, etc. etc., ad nauseum. The deviousness of humanity based on greed has long surpassed his intelligence, intelligence meaning, a balanced and kind mind, a mind that can take one forward through eternal events of high consciousness living.

Although underneath the atom.we are all the same energy, on the surface in our life expressions, we are individuals.

This Great Infinite One who became the universe.with what He is, and sustains it with what He does, also became you and me and all humans with what He thought:.Genesis 1:27; 1Corinthians 10:26.

In doing this, the making of clones was not the mind of the spirit. The idea of making clones is a concoction of ego thinking. Clones are out of the imagination of the collective ego mind desiring some form of control for its own purposes. The Infinite's unique.aspects, new creations, new spiritual personalities and new expressions, signify the flow of this intelligent invisible energy to and through us. Higher consciousness ways.(Romans 13:10).do not include subjugation and control of humanity by any means. The only control ever necessary is in Romans 13:10, the regulation of oneself based on love.

The creative possibilites are endless. Nothing, absolutely nothing that can be imagined is impossible; The Infinite we often refer to as 'He', created an amazing array of different species, as many as He determined would be sufficient for the purposes they were created for. There are no limits.

And it's the same with the invisible spirit world, which we also are of, as we have an invisible spirit in us, a spirit that takes us far above animal consciousness, a spirit which has always been us, a great spirit of individuality, a spirit which enables the patterns we are made from to sustain us, a spirit which is made for connection with the love frequency which God is:.1John 4:8 "He that loves not knows not God, for God is love." 1John 4:16 "And we have known and believed the love that God has to us. God is love and.he that dwells in love dwells in God.and God in him."

In order to progress toward the great future for all of both humanity and spirit kind, we must get good at love. Love is the sustaining of the invisible world. Because of that, no one can enter unless they are part of the kingdom now.

No one can really tell you how you should carve out your own life because we are all different:.Philippians 2:12 "Wherefore, my beloved, as you have always obeyed.(original for word 'obeyed' is 'opened minded willingness to learn'), not as in my presence only, but now much more in my absence, work out.(why?.2Corinthians 5:10).your own salvation.(everyone needs saving from some or other negatives, but with some negatives, it's best not to fight because Creator-God controls all, example).with fear.(meaning a great respect, as you realize the immense power available to you as it was for Bruno Gröning and fear to step outside of its marvelous effects; it is the power to alter the entire world; how does one use it?).and trembling.(being careful to respect this power for what it can do to you and for you; the power works both ways; you chose; like electricity, you can use it to make your toast or to electrocute someone)."

This is God's world and He uses the devil in His engineering of circumstances that affect us.

The Creator does not have a 'cookie cutter' plan for each member of His creation. Ever see two snowflakes exactly the same?.Micah 4:4. Rather, God has a separate plan for each of us individually, and teaches us all differently:.Matthew 20:23. In this teaching much is allowed of our decisions to come to pass, both good and bad:.Deuteronomy 32:20; Isaiah 46:8-13. This has to do with our personality and character. One person's life lessons are different from others.

Personality is what is you, how you are and appear to others as you express yourself through talking, singing, writing, walking, etc. How did you become how you are now? Your expressions as personality are recycled relationships; everyone whom you may have known has made you what you are. If you don't like it, you can change it. You don't have to be how you have been exposed to. Instead be of higher quality in being honest in words, situations and money. Good character is the heaven of the mind.

The real you from your Soul's connection with your spirit, is not how you appear physically. It is the 'abider' that stands beside. It's the observer. It's the you that you may not have known about.

The way you are to others involves labels. To instead be as your spirit is in life, you have to be in line with it.

Character is your database of information, your stored decisions from which you respond to circumstances, situations and people. We are here to develop character. One's good character is the heaven of the mind.

People need individual circumstances and refreshed thinking to be interesting to each other and to the Creator.(why would he want deadheads?).and to have unique personalities. To improve, continue learning.

The Creator wants each individual to be strong on their own.

The loving nature Emmanuel came to reveal is that which brings forth unique qualities:.1Peter 3:4. Why?

Individually, each of us are the Infinite One's workmanship: Ephesians 2:10. The Creator exhibits this anti cloning.characteristic of His character in the incredible diversity of the species of plants that He created.

Building one's character is one's own responsibility but God often provides the circumstances. Codependency precludes this. Wisdom and decisions are needed.
