Greetings Brethren,

JOHN 7:16-18 Jesus answered them, and said, My doctrine is not mine, but his that sent me. v17 If any man will do his will, he shall know of the doctrine, whether it be of God, or [whether] I speak of myself. v18 He that speaketh of himself seeketh his own glory: but he that seeketh his glory that sent him, the same is true, and no unrighteousness is in him.

In this letter I will teach on that subject of Marriage and Divorce. I know that this is a very controversial subject, but the Truth of this doctrine is found in the Scriptures. And for me, the Scriptures are what I live by, and therefore teach, by His grace.

This subject along with the other messages that I have taught on are my personal beliefs based on that which has been revealed to me. They are not the teachings of any particular person or group of people. I follow the prophets of God, as it is written to do, and therefore uphold the doctrines, which has been brought forth to us by and in the Scriptures.

To better see (understand) this doctrine I will break it down, so let us then begin at the beginning.
========================

MATTHEW 19:4-6 And he answered and said unto them, Have ye not read, that he which made [them] at the beginning made them male and female, v5 And said, For this cause shall a man leave father and mother, and shall cleave to his wife: and they twain shall be one flesh? v6 Wherefore they are no more twain, but one flesh. What therefore God hath joined together, let not man put asunder.

In the beginning God created one male and his female in all the various creatures that where created. All creatures went forth by two, the male and his female, even as in the New World after the flood. Adam called his female, Woman, because she was taken out of Man. The Woman's name was "Woman" at this time, not Eve, for she had not as yet brought forth children. [genesis 1:27; 6:18-20; 7:1-3;]

The Scripture "these Two are One Flesh" was true BEFORE Adam lay with his wife and her name was changed to Eve. For she was literally already bone of his bone, and flesh of his flesh. She was in Adam at the beginning, then she came forth and he named her Woman.

Therefore now when a man and a woman come together sexually (become one flesh), it is a Shadow and Type of Adam and his wife (before they come together sexually) in the beginning. The Natural typing (representing) the Spiritual. Marriage is a sacred thing.

GENESIS 2:23,24 And Adam said, This [is] now bone of my bones, and flesh of my flesh: she shall be called Woman, because she was taken out of Man. v24 Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave unto his wife: and they shall be one flesh.
========================

Matthew 19:6 What therefore God hath joined together, let not man put asunder.

When God does something, he always brings it forth by His Word. So if God joins anything together, and in this case, a male and his female, a man and his wife, they will be joined (become one) by His Word. So we need to know what His Word says in order to see when a man and woman are joined together in marriage as man and wife, in His Sight. Then we will also know when divorce is legal, in His Sight, and when a man is not to put asunder what God has joined together, by His Word.

MATTHEW 19:7,8 They say unto him, Why did Moses then command to give a writing of divorcement, and to put her away? v8 He saith unto them, Moses because of the hardness of your hearts suffered you to put away your wives: but from the beginning it was not so.

Here is the Scripture that the Pharisees (religious leaders of that day) where using in order to try and tempt Him.

DEUTERONOMY 24:1-4 When a man hath taken a wife, and married her, and it come to pass that she find no favour in his eyes, because he hath found some uncleanness in her: then let him write her a bill of divorcement, and give [it] in her hand, and send her out of his house. v2 And when she is departed out of his house, she may go and be another man's [wife]. v3 And [if] the latter husband hate her, and write her a bill of divorcement, and giveth [it] in her hand, and sendeth her out of his house; or if the latter husband die, which took her [to be] his wife; v4 Her former husband, which sent her away, may not take her again to be his wife, after that she is defiled; for that [is] abomination before the LORD: and thou shalt not cause the land to sin, which the LORD thy God giveth thee [for] an inheritance.

Jesus said that this Scripture was given by Moses, by permission, from God, because of the hardness or unwillingness of the people to follow God's Original Word. For in the beginning (Adam and his wife) Divorce was not so. And if it wasn't so then, it isn't so now! God does not change His Mind about anything. The Original Order and Structure of anything that God has established is His Perfect will, Forever. Then, if we see anything outside of His Original Word, being done in Scripture, it has to be His Permissive will. [Romans 12:2; ephesians 5:6-17; 1thessalonians 4:1-5]

If there was not divorce in the Beginning, then Adam was not to divorce his wife for ANY REASON! Nor was the Woman to divorce her husband for ANY REASON!

If divorce was not established by God, and permitted by Him, in the Beginning, then divorce is not permitted now, in the End. Yet, Jesus speaks of One Justifiable reason that a man can divorce his wife by.

What meanth this? How can this be?
========================

Matthew 19:9 And I say unto you, Whosoever shall put away his wife, except [it be] for fornication, and shall marry another, committeth adultery: and whoso marrieth her which is put away doth commit adultery.

That One Justifiable reason before God, whereof a man can divorce his wife by is, FORNICATION.

What is Fornication? Is it the same as Adultery? Are the words used interchangeable in the Scriptures?

Fornication is having sexual relations BEFORE a person is married. Fornication is not the same as Adultery, and the words are not used interchangeable in the Scriptures. [I looked up every word and also the use of the words in the Hebrew and Greek] Fornication and Adultery are both sexual sins, but what makes the difference between them is whether or not the person committing that sexual sin is married or not. Committing Adultery is when someone is Married and has sexual relations with someone other than their marriage partner.

I CORINTHIANS 7:1,2 Now concerning the things whereof ye wrote unto me: [It is] good for a man not to touch a woman. v2 Nevertheless, [to avoid] fornication, let every man have his own wife, and let every woman have her own husband.

LEVITICUS 20:10 And the man that committeth adultery with [another] man's wife, [even he] that committeth adultery with his neighbour's wife, the adulterer and the adulteress shall surely be put to death.

In the beginning there was no divorce for any reason; but after the beginning, after the Sin of Adam, after the Woman had her name changed to Eve, (those that understand the Serpent Seed doctrine, hear ye) Divorce was now permitted only if it was found that the woman had committed fornication "Before" they was joined together in marriage.

What is Fornication? Sexual relations between a man and a women. And what saith the Scripture? These Two shall be One Flesh. Do you see it? When a women is a Virgin and then willingly has sexual relations with a man, those two become one flesh, and are therefore joined together as husband and wife. And it doesn't matter if they get married or not before the people, in the Sight of God and by His Word, that is her husband and she is his wife.

Now do you see why Jesus said a man could divorce his wife and marry another if he found out sometime later (or while he was engaged to her) that his wife had committed fornication before they was married? Why she was already another mans wife, and he didn't even know that he was living in Adultery because she had done this! That man that she committed fornication with would have to be dead in order for her to marry again, as saith the Law. There is no divorce before God. For what God has joined together, by His Word, let no man separate.

O what an evil and ADULTERESS generation we are living in! Repent! For the hour of His Wrath is at hand.

EXODUS 22:16,17 And if a man entice a maid that is not betrothed, and lie with her, he shall surely endow her to be his wife. v17 If her father utterly refuse to give her unto him, he shall pay money according to the dowry of virgins.

DEUTERONOMY 22:13-21 If any man take a wife, and go in unto her, and hate her, v14 And give occasions of speech against her, and bring up an evil name upon her, and say, I took this woman, and when I came to her, I found her not a maid: v15 Then shall the father of the damsel, and her mother, take and bring forth [the tokens of] the damsel's virginity unto the elders of the city in the gate: v16 And the damsel's father shall say unto the elders, I gave my daughter unto this man to wife, and he hateth her; v17 And, lo, he hath given occasions of speech [against her], saying, I found not thy daughter a maid; and yet these [are the tokens of] my daughter's virginity. And they shall spread the cloth before the elders of the city. v18 And the elders of that city shall take that man and chastise him; v19 And they shall amerce him in an hundred [shekels] of silver, and give [them] unto the father of the damsel, because he hath brought up an evil name upon a virgin of Israel: and she shall be his wife; he may not put her away all his days. v20 But if this thing be true, [and the tokens of] virginity be not found for the damsel: v21 Then they shall bring out the damsel to the door of her father's house, and the men of her city shall stone her with stones that she die: because she hath wrought folly in Israel, to play the whore in her father's house: so shalt thou put evil away from among you.

DEUTERONOMY 22:28,29 If a man find a damsel [that is] a virgin, which is not betrothed, and lay hold on her, and lie with her, and they be found; v29 Then the man that lay with her shall give unto the damsel's father fifty [shekels] of silver, and she shall be his wife; because he hath humbled her, he may not put her away all his days.

If a man has sexual relations with a woman, and she is a virgin, that is now his wife. If he does not take her to be his wife, before the people, but puts or sends her away (divorces her) and then does marry some girl down the line, though she also be a virgin, he is committing Adultery against that first girl! He is living in Adultery!

MARK 10:11,12 And he saith unto them, Whosoever shall put away his wife, and marry another, committeth adultery against her. v12 And if a woman shall put away her husband, and be married to another, she committeth adultery.

Do you see what Satan has done by deceiving the people using the tv, radio, books, and even some schools are teaching our children and teenagers that it is alright to have premarital sex (commit fornication) as long as it is, what the world calls, "safe sex".

How many teenagers have had sexual relations and had no intention of getting married? They don't realize what they are really doing in the Sight of God; because there parents, leaders, and yes Pastors have not taught them the Truth. Yes, some may believe that Fornication (premarital sex) before marriage is wrong, but yet some are willing to sin that sin, not seeing it as such a bad thing. But if those virgins and those boys only knew what they were really doing, many would not commit fornication. They would see sex in a different Light. A Scriptural Light! This is the sex education class that needs to be taught to the children in school. [acts 15:28,29; 1 corinthians 5:9-13; 6:9-20; 10:8; 1 thessalonians 4:1-8; hebrews 12:15-17; jude 5-7; revelations 2:14,20-23; 17:1-5; 18:1-4]
========================

One thing I do need to mention pertaining to the above statements is that if a Virgin girl and a man are what we call in these days Engaged also known in Scripture as Betrothed and Espoused "to be" Married; before God they are Already Married though they have not as yet come together to consummate that Marriage. The Marriage ceremony "before the people" only shows what has already taken place between them and before God. Then afterwards they become one in the flesh to bring forth children.

HEBREWS 13:4 Marriage [is] honourable in all, and the bed undefiled: but whoremongers and adulterers God will judge.

Therefore if this were the case, that man or virgin girl would not be committing fornication, but Adultery, because they are already husband and wife.

DEUTERONOMY 22:23,24 If a damsel [that is] a virgin be betrothed unto an husband, and a man find her in the city, and lie with her; v24 Then ye shall bring them both out unto the gate of that city, and ye shall stone them with stones that they die; the damsel, because she cried not, [being] in the city; and the man, because he hath humbled his neighbour's wife: so thou shalt put away evil from among you.

MATTHEW 1:18-20 Now the birth of Jesus Christ was on this wise: When as his mother Mary was espoused to Joseph, before they came together, she was found with child of the Holy Ghost. v19 Then Joseph her husband, being a just [man], and not willing to make her a publick example, was minded to put her away privily. v20 But while he thought on these things, behold, the angel of the Lord appeared unto him in a dream, saying, Joseph, thou son of David, fear not to take unto thee Mary thy wife: for that which is conceived in her is of the Holy Ghost.

II CORINTHIANS 11:2,3 For I am jealous over you with godly jealousy: for I have espoused you to one husband, that I may present [you as] a chaste virgin to Christ. v3 But I fear, lest by any means, as the serpent beguiled Eve through his subtilty, so your minds should be corrupted from the simplicity that is in Christ.
========================

You have probable noticed that I, and indeed the Scriptures, have been saying Virgin girl and not including Virgin boys while speaking on this subject of marriage and divorce.

There are different Laws given by God, which are to be followed by the male and the female, when it comes to Marriage. But once again, in the Beginning, it was not so.

In the beginning there was one male and his one female in the animal kingdom and with Man. After the beginning (the fall of man) we see the male with his many females (polygamy) in the animal kingdom and with Man. What you don't see in Scripture, nor in Nature, which follows the Will of God, is the one female with her many males.

We see in Scripture that a man could have many wives, as long as she was not already someone else's wife, but a woman could only have one husband. Jacob, who is Israel, had four wives [gen. 32:22, 35:22-26, 37:2 ]. Solomon had 700 wives besides the 300 concubines (women servants, but who are really also wives) [1kings 11:1-13]. There are many men in Scripture that had more than one wife, but no Woman had more than one husband.

What we see here in both the animal kingdom and in Man, is the Representation of Jesus Christ (a type pointing to Christ) and the many which will be His One Bride. For that One Bride of Christ will be all those Christians throughout history which was in Him at the Beginning. For He is that Second Adam, and she is that Second Woman, which came forth out of Him. All these believers make up that One Body which came forth out of Christ, which is His Wife. [romans 5:14; I corinthians 15:22,45-49; 2 corinthians 11:2]

Did you notice that it is His Bride as in One Bride, not Brides as in many? His Wife, not Wives? For in the beginning the first Adam had one wife, not wives, and these Two where One. A male and his female, not females. There was no polygamy in the beginning, and there is no polygamy at the End.

After Jesus the Christ appeared, and Redeemed His Bride, nowhere is it taught in Scripture nor in types, that a man is to have more than one wife (polygamy). The Type has been fulfilled (we are now looking back to what Christ has done). The Second Adam, Jesus Christ, was put to sleep in death, and when He was raised up, His Bride, who came forth out of Him, was given Life and was to be Manifested in flesh throughout the Seven Church Ages.

Not brides, Bride. Not wives, Wife. Not churches, The Church!

If a woman divorces her husband, he can marry again, but only in the Lord. But a woman cannot marry again until her husband is dead.

I CORINTHIANS 7:39 The wife is bound by the law as long as her husband liveth; but if her husband be dead, she is at liberty to be married to whom she will; only in the Lord.
========================

MARK 10:11,12 And he saith unto them, Whosoever shall put away his wife, and marry another, committeth adultery against her. v12 And if a woman shall put away her husband, and be married to another, she committeth adultery.

I CORINTHIANS 7:10,11 And unto the married I command, [yet] not I, but the Lord, Let not the wife depart from [her] husband: v11 But and if she depart, let her remain unmarried, or be reconciled to [her] husband: and let not the husband put away [his] wife.

I hope that you can see (understand) by the Scriptures now, that there is no Divorce for any reason (unless of course the woman committed fornication before they were married) that is permitted by God.

*******
Neither in Scripture does it say that a man is to divorce his wife, and is not to take her back, because she committed adultery. The divorce law that was permitted by Moses does say that if her husband divorces her and she marries again, that he is not to take her back even if that second husband died. Why? He has caused her to be defiled because he divorced her and then she remarried! [deuteronomy 24:1-4] Nor does it say that a woman is no longer married just because she committed adultery. She is married to that man, and that is her husband, until he dies, as saith the Law!

There is a difference between Committing adultery, and Living in adultery. To commit an adulterous act is to have sexual relations with a married person. This may happen once or many times. But to live in adultery is to be married to someone else's wife or husband.

This answers that second statement I spoke of out of the CHB , and believe is wrong, concerning Marriage and Divorce.

2. Marriage and Divorce. Quote from CHB [Now the Word teaches us that if a woman leaves her husband and goes with another man she is an adultress and is no longer married and the husband is not to take her back.]
*******

Also if a man commits adultery against his wife, she cannot divorce him.

Man, that is your wife until the day she dies. Woman, that is your husband until the day he dies. Then you are free to marry again, but only in the Lord. Did not you even say in your wedding vow, "until death"?

MALACHI 2:14-16 Yet ye say, Wherefore? Because the LORD hath been witness between thee and the wife of thy youth, against whom thou hast dealt treacherously: yet [is] she thy companion, and the wife of thy covenant. v15 And did not he make one? Yet had he the residue of the spirit. And wherefore one? That he might seek a godly seed. Therefore take heed to your spirit, and let none deal treacherously against the wife of his youth. v16 For the LORD, the God of Israel, saith that he hateth putting away: for [one] covereth violence with his garment, saith the LORD of hosts: therefore take heed to your spirit, that ye deal not treacherously.

Some I'm sure are saying, "if the case be such in Marriage, it would probable be better not to even get married." If you do feel like this, then you see and believe that the Scriptures are True. For the Apostles said the very same thing!

MATTHEW 19:10-12 His disciples say unto him, If the case of the man be so with [his] wife, it is not good to marry. v11 But he said unto them, All [men] cannot receive this saying, save [they] to whom it is given. v12 For there are some eunuchs, which were so born from [their] mother's womb: and there are some eunuchs, which were made eunuchs of men: and there be eunuchs, which have made themselves eunuchs for the kingdom of heaven's sake. He that is able to receive [it], let him receive [it].

I CORINTHIANS 7:7-9 For I would that all men were even as I myself. But every man hath his proper gift of God, one after this manner, and another after that. v8 I say therefore to the unmarried and widows, It is good for them if they abide even as I. v9 But if they cannot contain, let them marry: for it is better to marry than to burn.

O Children of God, take this to heart, consider these things, and may the Lord lead you in that which you should do. Marriage is a Sacred thing before God.
========================

I'm sure that there are some ministers of the Gospel that are angry at what I have already said. But what I am about to say will cause me to have many enemies of those who say they preach the Gospel of Jesus Christ. For what is next, pertains to Ministers.

And what I am going to say is not said because I'm personally against any ministers, I say this because it is the Truth, and it has to be said, the Lord knoweth.

MARK 12:24 And Jesus answering said unto them, Do ye not therefore err, because ye know not the scriptures, neither the power of God?

I know that there are many ministers that have divorced their wives and have married again, and some two or three times. And some that has married divorced women. And we have seen by the Scriptures that if a man divorces his wife and marries again, he is committing adultery against her. And if a man marries a divorced woman he is living in adultery, for he has another mans wife.

The Scripture states the Qualifications of a Minister of God. The Mosaic Law states what the priests (ministers) where to do when it came to marriage and divorce. And in the New Testament we also see the Qualifications of Ministers as well.

This first quote deals with the priests (ministers) of God.

LEVITICUS 21:6,7 They shall be holy unto their God, and not profane the name of their God: for the offerings of the LORD made by fire, [and] the bread of their God, they do offer: therefore they shall be holy. v7 They shall not take a wife [that is] a whore, or profane; neither shall they take a woman put away from her husband: for he [is] holy unto his God.

This quote speaks of the high priest (Jesus Christ) of God.

LEVITICUS 21:13,14 And he shall take a wife in her virginity. v14 A widow, or a divorced woman, or profane, [or] an harlot, these shall he not take: but he shall take a virgin of his own people to wife.

A Bishop (Elder) is to have one wife, not wives.

I TIMOTHY 3:2 A bishop then must be blameless, the husband of one wife, vigilant, sober, of good behaviour, given to hospitality, apt to teach;

A Deacon is to have one wife, not wives.

I TIMOTHY 3:12 Let the deacons be the husbands of one wife, ruling their children and their own houses well.

Then there is the five fold ministry which are the Apostles, Prophets, Evangelists, Pastors, and Teachers which are placed in the Church by God Himself to Minister to the Children and Sheep of God. If the Bishops and Deacons which are ordained by man, are under these laws, would not the five fold ministry which is ordained of God, be even more so?

EPHESIANS 4:11,12 And he gave some, apostles; and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, pastors and teachers; v12 For the perfecting of the saints, for the work of the ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ:

The Scriptures plainly state, as we have just gone through, the conditions of marriage and divorce. Would not these conditions be applied to the Ministers as well? And if you will notice, the Divorce issue which was permitted by Moses to give, in the Mosaic Law, did not even pertain to the Priesthood at all, but just the congregation. The Priesthood (Ministers) could not marry a divorced woman even under the Mosaic Law.

LEVITICUS 21:7 They shall not take a wife [that is] a whore, or profane; neither shall they take a woman put away from her husband: for he [is] holy unto his God.
============

If you did err, I have now brought forth the Scriptures, but to nail this down, let me now speak on the "Power of God".

JUDGES 13:5 For, lo, thou shalt conceive, and bear a son; and no razor shall come on his head: for the child shall be a Nazarite unto God from the womb: and he shall begin to deliver Israel out of the hand of the Philistines.

JEREMIAH 1:5 Before I formed thee in the belly I knew thee; and before thou camest forth out of the womb I sanctified thee, [and] I ordained thee a prophet unto the nations.

LUKE 1:15-17 For he shall be great in the sight of the Lord, and shall drink neither wine nor strong drink; and he shall be filled with the Holy Ghost, even from his mother's womb. v16 And many of the children of Israel shall he turn to the Lord their God. v17 And he shall go before him in the spirit and power of Elias, to turn the hearts of the fathers to the children, and the disobedient to the wisdom of the just; to make ready a people prepared for the Lord.

GALATIANS 1:15,16 But when it pleased God, who separated me from my mother's womb, and called [me] by his grace, v16 To reveal his Son in me, that I might preach him among the heathen; immediately I conferred not with flesh and blood:

ROMANS 11:29 For the gifts and calling of God [are] without repentance.

A Minister called and chosen by God (not by man nor the will of man) before the foundation of the world, will fulfill the Word of God, of which He planed for him to fulfill. They are separated unto God from their mother's womb, to fulfill the Word of God in their Age.

Now does this man who has been chosen by God have anything to do with this calling? Was it, or is it up to him and the power of his might, to make sure that what God would have him do, will be fulfilled? Does the man, by his own strength, bring forth and produce the Word Ministry which has been ordained for him to do, or does God Himself bring forth, by His Power, that Word Ministry which was ordained by God for him to do?

Know ye not that God will make sure, by His Own Great Power, that His Thoughts, His Will, His Word shall be fulfilled in that man which He has called to be a Minister?

Therefore, if God has Identified His Ministers in His Word, and has Spoken of the Qualifications that they should have, and therefore will have, He will make sure by His Great Power that it is Fulfilled!

How could a Minister that has been ordained and chosen by God be living in Adultery? This would disqualify them from the Ministry according to the Scriptures, and God will not let anything overcome His Perfect Will. Would not God preserve that man from his birth, and watch over His Gifts (Ministers), to make sure that if they did get married they would not divorce their wives and marry again? Tell me, would He let them marry a divorced woman? Is a man greater in power than God? Is the desire of man and his will greater in strength than the desire and will of God for that man which He has Called to the Ministry? Who can overcome and defeat the Will of God? [romans 9:11-24]

By their Fruits, you shall know them, said Jesus. A Minister planted by God will bring forth and bare the Fruits of a Minister Tree. And this Tree is Identified in the Scriptures! Not by might, nor by power, but by my Spirit, saith the Lord. Amen. [psalms 1:1-3; proverbs 11:30; jeremiah 11:19,20; 17:7,8; zechariah 4:11-14; matthew 3:9,10; 7:15-23; revelation 11:3,4]

God told William Branham when he was seven years old, "Don't never smoke, or drink, or defile your body in any way. There'll be a work to do when you get older." Now did William Branham by his strength and his might fulfill that Word? No! He would have drunk liquor and smoked cigarettes (he even tried to) but by the Power of God, the Spirit of God would not let him do it! He would have also been a murderer when he was a boy, about 12, as he tried to kill some boys with his 22 rifle because they beat him up. But did God let this happen? No! Every bullet misfired by the Power of God. Why? Because God was looking after His Word Minister, His Gift, and nothing is going to keep His Word from being Fulfilled!

So minister friends, I don't condemn you, nor do I judge you, but the Word of God is True. If you say you follow the Word, then do it! If you see that you are not to minister, then stop it. Obey God and seek honor from Him. Don't begin to think that God needs you... would He go against His Own Word? If you Love the people, because you Love God, then obey God and find your place in the Scriptures.

Many a man and even women have thought that they were called to be Ministers of God. (Women are not called by God to be Ministers, nor do they hold any place of authority in the Church of God. [1corinthians 14:34-38; 1timothy 2:9-15; titus 2:3-5]) They wanting to do a service for God, and believing that they are doing a good thing for the Kingdom of God, place themselves in this position of authority. For many it is not their fault that they tried, or are holding, this position of authority which is only given by God, for they were led and taught by other ministers which also were not called by God to be a Minister!

But let me say this as well; there are many men that fulfill the Scriptures, concerning the marriage and divorce issue, yet they still are not Ministers of God. By their fruit you shall know them. A Minister Tree sent of God will bring forth Fruit in its Season, from the Word of God as taught in the Scriptures. They won't hold forth and teach man made creeds, dogmas, and doctrines, for that is not True Minister Fruit. They will stay with the Word, and the Revelation thereof, which is Written in the Scriptures!

If a minister still fills and believes that it is alright to continue as a minister, even though he does not fulfill the qualifications of a minister, pertaining to this marriage and divorce issue, what can one say? If he believes that God has forgiven him, by His Grace, because he has or is living in adultery, who am I to say, He hasn't? But what I can say is that this minister never was a Minister called of God, in the beginning. For you know not the Scriptures, nor the Power of God.
========================

This was the hardest message I have ever taught on, and the Lord knows that I would not have taught on this subject if I did not believe He wanted me to. I have always stayed away from this marriage and divorce issue, even with close personal friends and family.

I have spent many days and yes even years praying, studying, and pondering on this subject. The Core of this subject concerns sexual sins and we know that in the beginning it was a sexual sin that cased the fall of man. And without question we see the whole world living in sexual sins right now, and because of this, Judgment shall fall even as it did in Sodom and Gomorrha. There is no turning back, its over, they will not repent, Judgment is next.

Don't cast aside what I have said as the ramblings of some nut, neither believe what I have said just because I said it. Search the Scriptures and see if these things be True. If this is a True Revelation from God then it will hold true and dove tail from Genesis to Revelation. Search what the last Prophet, William Branham, also had to say concerning this subject. The Revelation of Marriage and Divorce was given to him. So Seek God and His Truth, and ye shall find it.

I place this in your hands...

May the Power of Revelation be yours,

Voice of a Watchman
Watchman, what of the night? Watchman, what of the night? The watchman said, The morning cometh, and also the night: if ye will Enquire, enquire ye: return, come.  Isa 21:11,12 

Re 1:5 Jesus Christ, who is the Faithful Witness, and the First Begotten Of The Dead, and the Prince Of The kings Of The Earth. Unto Him that Loved us, and Washed us from our Sins In HIS OWN BLOOD,
Php 2:9-11 God also hath Highly Exalted Him, and Given Him A Name which is Above Every Name: That at the Name OF Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth; And that Every Tongue Should Confess that Jesus Christ IS Lord, to The Glory Of God The Father.
Ac 4:11,12 This is the STONE which was set at nought of You Builders, which is become the HEAD OF THE CORNER. Neither is there Salvation in any other: for there is None Other Name under heaven Given Among Men, whereby WE MUST BE SAVED.
