The Unfaithful Man

by Bernadette Ontong  
1/01/2013 / Marriage


There is no judgement here except what is the truth from God's Word.

Ephesians 5:11 - Take no part in the unfruitful works of darkness, but instead expose them.

1 Corinthians 5:9 - I wrote to you in my letter not to associate with sexually immoral people

It is with great sadness and anger that I enter this artilce here. It is a sad day that you have so many believers in this world who find it in their hearts to sin so completely and deliberately. They knowingly commit the ultimate sin against God and humanity adultery.

I am writing this even though it has been addressed for thousands of years (the verses at the end here are taken from both the Old and New Testament). It describes the UNFAITHFUL behavior of men in breaking their marriage vows. it is spoken out against in God's Word so clearly, yet they feel that it is human to err in this way. This even if 1 Corinthians 10:13 clearly state that the is "No temptation has overtaken you that is not common to man. God is faithful, and he will not let you be tempted beyond your ability, but with the temptation he will also provide the way of escape, that you may be able to endure it."

The unfortunate thing for them is this there is NO EXCUSE. God is clear about this fact that you sin grievously when you cheat in your heart let alone cheating outrightly. I am actually feeling desperately helpless in that these kinds of men feel justified that they can do this because there wives treat them badly. This is specifically written regarding men, even though women are, many times over, guilty of the same.

Again and unfortunately there is nothing that you can say or do to justify your actions against that which is written. I will list here a number of scriptures that would show you that you are in fact lying to yourself if you think for one moment that you have the right to do this for whatever reason.

Here are a ton of verses from the English Standard Version to illustrate the point. There is no escape from GOD'S TRUTH:

Matthew 5:28 But I say to you that everyone who looks at a woman with lustful intent has already committed adultery with her in his heart.

Proverbs 6:32 - He who commits adultery lacks sense; he who does it destroys himself.

Hebrews 13:4 Let marriage be held in honor among all, and let the marriage bed be undefiled, for God will judge the sexually immoral and adulterous.

1 Corinthians 6:18 Flee from sexual immorality. Every other sin a person commits is outside the body, but the sexually immoral person sins against his own body.

Matthew 19:9 - And I say to you: whoever divorces his wife, except for sexual immorality, and marries another, commits adultery."

1 Corinthians 10:8 - We must not indulge in sexual immorality as some of them did, and twenty-three thousand fell in a single day.

Luke 16:18 "Everyone who divorces his wife and marries another commits adultery, and he who marries a woman divorced from her husband commits adultery.

Deuteronomy 22:22 - "If a man is found lying with the wife of another man, both of them shall die, the man who lay with the woman, and the woman. So you shall purge the evil from Israel.

Matthew 5:32 But I say to you that everyone who divorces his wife, except on the ground of sexual immorality, makes her commit adultery, and whoever marries a divorced woman commits adultery.

Exodus 20:14 - "You shall not commit adultery.

NOTE HOW SERIOUS THIS IS. It is placed on the same level as other sinful behavior.

Revelation 21:8 - But as for the cowardly, the faithless, the detestable, as for murderers, the sexually immoral, sorcerers, idolaters, and all liars, their portion will be in the lake that burns with fire and sulfur, which is the second death."

Matthew 5:27-28 - "You have heard that it was said, 'You shall not commit adultery.' But I say to you that everyone who looks at a woman with lustful intent has already committed adultery with her in his heart.

Ephesians 5:5 - For you may be sure of this, that everyone who is sexually immoral or impure, or who is covetous (that is, an idolater), has no inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and God.

Ephesians 5:25 - Husbands, love your wives, as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her,

2 Peter 2:14 - They have eyes full of adultery, insatiable for sin. They entice unsteady souls. They have hearts trained in greed. Accursed children!

Jeremiah 29:23 - Because they have done an outrageous thing in Israel, they have committed adultery with their neighbors' wives, and they have spoken in my name lying words that I did not command them. I am the one who knows, and I am witness, declares the Lord.'"

Proverbs 23:27 - For a prostitute is a deep pit; an adulteress is a narrow well.

1 Thessalonians 4:3-5 - For this is the will of God, your sanctification: that you abstain from sexual immorality; that each one of you know how to control his own body in holiness and honor, not in the passion of lust like the Gentiles who do not know God;

Ephesians 4:19 They have become callous and have given themselves up to sensuality, greedy to practice every kind of impurity.

2 Corinthians 12:21 - I fear that when I come again my God may humble me before you, and I may have to mourn over many of those who sinned earlier and have not repented of the impurity, sexual immorality, and sensuality that they have practiced.

1 Corinthians 7:10-11 - To the married I give this charge (not I, but the Lord): the wife should not separate from her husband (but if she does, she should remain unmarried or else be reconciled to her husband), and the husband should not divorce his wife.

1 Corinthians 6:15-18 - Do you not know that your bodies are members of Christ? Shall I then take the members of Christ and make them members of a prostitute? Never! Or do you not know that he who is joined to a prostitute becomes one body with her? For, as it is written, "The two will become one flesh." But he who is joined to the Lord becomes one spirit with him. Flee from sexual immorality. Every other sin a person commits is outside the body, but the sexually immoral person sins against his own body.

1 Corinthians 6:13 "Food is meant for the stomach and the stomach for food"and God will destroy both one and the other. The body is not meant for sexual immorality, but for the Lord, and the Lord for the body.

Acts 15:20 - But should write to them to abstain from the things polluted by idols, and from sexual immorality, and from what has been strangled, and from blood.

Revelation 9:21 - Nor did they repent of their murders or their sorceries or their sexual immorality or their thefts.

Colossians 3:5 - Put to death therefore what is earthly in you: sexual immorality, impurity, passion, evil desire, and covetousness, which is idolatry.

1 Corinthians 5:1-5 - It is actually reported that there is sexual immorality among you, and of a kind that is not tolerated even among pagans, for a man has his father's wife. And you are arrogant! Ought you not rather to mourn? Let him who has done this be removed from among you. For though absent in body, I am present in spirit; and as if present, I have already pronounced judgment on the one who did such a thing. When you are assembled in the name of the Lord Jesus and my spirit is present, with the power of our Lord Jesus, you are to deliver this man to Satan for the destruction of the flesh, so that his spirit may be saved in the day of the Lord.

1 Corinthians 6:9 - Or do you not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived: neither the sexually immoral, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor men who practice homosexuality,

Romans 13:9 - For the commandments, "You shall not commit adultery, You shall not murder, You shall not steal, You shall not covet," and any other commandment, are summed up in this word: "You shall love your neighbor as yourself."

Malachi 2:16 - "For the man who does not love his wife but divorces her, says the Lord, the God of Israel, covers his garment with violence, says the Lord of hosts. So guard yourselves in your spirit, and do not be faithless."

1 Thessalonians 4:7 - For God has not called us for impurity, but in holiness.

Job 24:15-18 The eye of the adulterer also waits for the twilight, saying, 'No eye will see me'; and he veils his face. In the dark they dig through houses; by day they shut themselves up; they do not know the light. For deep darkness is morning to all of them; for they are friends with the terrors of deep darkness. "You say, 'Swift are they on the face of the waters; their portion is cursed in the land; no treader turns toward their vineyards.

Leviticus 18:20 - And you shall not lie sexually with your neighbor's wife and so make yourself unclean with her.

I am a believer who strongly believe in the commitment of a marriage even though I am single. Cheating and un-devoted people in a marriage angers and hurts me deeply, hence the article is the result.
