In most of the World Child Brides are common,

How common is child marriage?
Worldwide, more than 700 million women alive today were married before their 18th birthday. More than one in three (about 250 million) entered into union before age 15. Boys are also married as children, but girls are disproportionately affected.

About 15 million Girls a year.
140 millions girls before the age of 18 will marry.

"If current levels of child marriages hold, 14.2 million girls annually or 39,000 daily will marry too young. Furthermore, of the 140 million girls who will marry before the age of 18, 50 million will be under the age of 15.Mar 7, 2013"

The laws regulating marriage are quite uniform. ... While only three states, California, Kansas, and Massachusetts, have no statutory minimum age under which marriagelicenses will not be issued, many states with a minimum age requirement do permit marriages between minors under that age.

Even children ages 14, 13, 12 or younger can marry in Missouri, as it remains one of 25 states with no minimum age requirement, although at 14 or younger, a judge must approve.Mar 11, 2018

Under Michigan law, you need to be 18 to get married without restrictions. At age 16 and 17, you need parental consent. Those younger than 16 need a parent's and a judge's approval. With a judge's approval, there is no age limit.Sep 26, 2018

In July 2018, Missouri's governor signed a bill raising the minimum age of marriage with parental consent to 16. Additionally, the bill prevents anyone 21 or older to marry someone under the age of 18.Apr 19, 2019

I have know this for years now. But now in a lot countries men are not marrying season women. They are proclaiming to big of a problem. And it getting universal. A lot of Men especially "Alpha males", Beta males have no complaints. Those women over 30 and over are in the danger zone of dying alone. This study I have been doing, is been in for about 6 to 7 years. And the Alpha males are saying the same thing. And these talks are in close rooms, and Beta are not aloud. And in Japan they rather have a "Blow up or Synthetic Doll and "Playstation and a Xbox to communicate with and you cannot squeeze out of these men. They have grown to not trust women, they proclaim women are dangerous and the men rather die alone. And the women in Japan who have nice jobs cannot find a date! And the men would rather die alone, then to shack up or marry one. Many men have said: it is "Better' Living in a "Sugar Shack" that to Reign of The Throne with Deceitful Queen"!
A Beta male told me one time I am supposed to treat my wife like a Queen! and I turn to him, and Told that "beta", I live in the USA, if I wanted to marry a Queen I would went to "England", I married her because I wanted a "wife" not Queen! And the way i said it< That beta was stud!

These men have woken up, they do not want, Greedy Queens, they want Humble wives that have not been tainted by the westernize world, And if she is over 30 she is in the danger zone, and if she has had over 2 boy friends, and her career is her main squeeze her value has drop way down! Because these men of Value are looking for young women, who have not been tainted by the world!

I have done my homework for the last 7-8 years. And I have listen. If you are a Muti-Millionaire you don't buy a use "Bugatti" you buy a New one!

Now all Millionaires are not wise, "Just because you have the money to buy a "Lamborghini" does not mean, you have the Intelligence to know how to drive one"

"In 2020, for the first time in 11 years, suicide rates in Japan went up. Most surprising, while male suicides fell slightly, rates among women surged nearly 15%." And these women are not old women and they got good jobs.

" The Alpha male is keeping their mouths shut. and speaking among themselves. For they feel the women are getting out of hand. and "the Good O'boys are having "Powwows"! "The back Rooms is open for Business"! The Days of those "Gucci" Purses, Pandora Bracelets, Red bottom Prada's, is coming to a end!

(Proverbs 31)
New King James Version
Who can find a virtuous wife? For her worth is far above rubies. [for you wisdom of years and what you make does not increase your value for the "Alpha" male"]

That IS QUESTION!

I got three daughters. AND concerning about men, they listen to their Mama! and do not want to hear what i got to say! And I warn the men, leave them daughters of mine alone! I know their Mama! LOL! I have warn you

PS most Alpha men they don't mind dying alone. But most women do not want to die alone. They get lonesome, they might find a beta male. [Hen peck] if the Alpha ain't ate them all up! LOL

 

[Brother-Paul]

Child marriage is not new PB, it was common even with the Jews, in the world where arranged marriages took place it was more common.

 

[PloughBoy]

Child marriage is not new PB, it was common even with the Jews, in the world where arranged marriages took place it was more common.

Sorry, Brother-Paul i must ask this question of you, The reason is, by your reply to my "Thread". Have you ever, presented a "sermon" and How do you "draw your 'Text" and present it, or have you presented a "biblicaL Lecture". And how is the Text drawn in your Lectures. Because, I must say this, Because before you take any course in a Biblical Sound College, you must take "Electives" before you get into anything about the Bible. And in "Bible Introduction 101" you must Learn about the "cultures" it is written in. And mostly every bIblical student, study the age factor of "Marriage", and "Westernization" way of marriage is the "New Kid" on the block! "The Whole Biblical Structure is Base on The Marriage of "The LAMD of GOD"! and The "Old Testament" is only a "Type and Shadow" of what has and will come to past. Only I wish I could it put in "The Very WORDS of GOD" as It is Prescribe in "The Original Biblical Text" about HIS "UnFaithful Bride". And then we have Act 2, The [NT]. The Bride, who was chosen for Him [The SON}. And if i spoke The "Unadulterated" Truth in Light of "The Holy Scriptures", mostly all who call themselves christians would nail me to the cross upside down! For speaking the Truth about "The Salvation of GOD", The Story: [And I know how to Tell it, behind close sessions, to those who want to know "The Truth"] The Truth According to JESUS Christ will get a Man killed. If they nail GOD to the Tree, what do you think they will do to you, for telling the "Unadulterated TRUTH of GOD?

Jesus said:
Berean Study Bible
"But now you are trying to kill Me, a man who has told you the truth that I heard from God. Abraham never did such a thing."

(Luke 23)ASV
"But Jesus turned to them and said, “Daughters of Jerusalem, stop weeping for Me, but weep for Yourselves and for your Children. For behold, days are coming when they will say, ‘Blessed are those who cannot bear, and the wombs that have not given birth, and the breasts that have not nursed.’ Then they will begin TO SAY TO THE MOUNTAINS, ‘FALL ON US,’ AND TO THE HILLS, ‘COVER US.’ For if they do these things when the tree is green, what will happen when it is dry?”

PS Every Thread i Post, ties in together and neither is 'Isolated' from the other, although it may seem.

I will declare this "I am no "Jack Leg" Biblical Reader or Biblical Presenter, I have Study, and I have depended on GOD to give me The Increase, in Tears and Loud cries! Calling on GOD, Teach me about yourself! For I trust in No man! Loud Cries, a many of days, in my younger years!

Ecclesiastes 11:8
So if a man lives many years, let him rejoice in them all. But let him remember the days of darkness, for they will be many. Everything to come is futile.
NASB 1977
Remember also your Creator in the days of your youth, before the evil days come and the years draw near when you will say, “I have no delight in them”;

A lot of Christians do not believe this Truth. Just listen how they talk, and the words that come forth, from their mouths Just pay attention to the things, they like to hear. They parade it, like a "Thanksgiving Day" Parade.

(Isaiah 5)BSB
"Lambs will graze as in their own pastures, and strangers will feed in the ruins of the wealthy. Woe to those who draw iniquity with cords of deceit and pull sin along with cart ropes, to those who say, “Let Him hurry and hasten His work so that we may see it! Let the plan of the Holy One of Israel come so that we may know it!”…

He came not to bring Peace but a SWORD! But many have deny this "Truth "and have done their Best, to explain it away.

"But whoever denies Me before men, I will also deny him before My Father in heaven. Do not THINK that I have come to Bring Peace to the Earth; I have not Come to bring Peace, but a SWORD. For I have come to turn ‘a man against his father, a daughter against her mother, a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law.…"

have we deny this "Truth"? by explaining it away, by the words that has come forth out of Our mouths

Let all of us who knows His name be quick to "listen" and slow to Speak"! for we all are guilty and come up short!

You are Most Bless my Brother in Christ.

I will not come down, lower myself to the masses, But i will ask others to come up. From day one, christians have told me with strong words, don't be so "Heavenly Minded" that you are no "Worldly Good", and I believe it and lower myself to their levels and spoke on the their terms. Meanings Christians, not referring to the people of this world. Never no more, I rather be One of The"Heavenly Minded" "Sons of the Living GOD" than a "Worldly Good Christian" any time of the day. And no mortal Human being can convince me different, I will take the word of God over any man. So a earthly man or women, will have to convince another, for there are many, waiting with open arms to receive their counsel. For the harvest is great and the fields are plenty. millions upon millions, opening arms and "itching ears".

I am not at odds what any "christian" may think what he of she, believes what :The Bible" teaches. That is what they believe the Bible teaches, I do understand their right in which they believe. But they don't push or command me of what I believe, according to what I believe in "The Gospel According to Jesus Christ". I respect their Believeth, they do not have to respect mines,

American Standard Version
"But though we, or an angel from heaven, should preach unto you any gospel other than that which we preached unto you, let him be anathema."

I do not have to defend myself or The WORD of GOD. Sorry I will not come down.
(Colossians 3)ASV
"If then ye were raised together with Christ, seek the things that are above, where Christ is, seated on the right hand of God. Set your mind on the things that are above, not on the things that are upon the earth. For ye died, and your life is hid with Christ in God. When Christ, who is our life, shall be manifested, then shall ye also with him be manifested in glory."

Yes I am Different. for neither am I a christian, But "I am, a "Child of The Living GOD"! and It doesn't matter what any other may think, for it does not matter. But GOD knows and that is what really matters. I am His child.

Last of all I think you have mis-understood The Leading title of my Title "Thread" and did not understand the entrance of Post 1 and 2 , the prime for "Discussion". hoping for insight into the Biblical narrative in Light of what is to come. for this world is full of Worldly talks, concerns, solutions, and counsels to solve problems. This world offers, counseling for everything. Seek Counseling is a normal term. "TalkJesus" isn't.

A few days ago I responded to your post in a manner which I am not proud of, and which I feel was uncalled for and is quite embarrassing. For that I would apologise and this is my own decision after a few days to pray and consider the situation.

I have a lot of health issues as many of you know, pain 24/7 due to my disabilities and double vision amongst other concerning issues. My problem is I push myself, I won't give in, I still want to do what I can't do, I read on when my eyes are telling me not to. Call me a stubborn mule if you wish.

I felt your response in Post 4, in reply to the brief comment I made in post 3 was not needed or called for, but my reply following that is why I apologise.

I know I could have PM'd you, but feel after your reply things would have become even more strained that they were. After a few days and prayer, I chose to reply here as I was not pleased with myself, but also because I feel there is quite a bit of spiritual turbulence on here at present. Are we not to love one another As Christ Loves us?

Having not been on here for a couple of days, I planned not to return, but have decided that I will see how things go. But what I do feel is important, and it happens in many places of worship, is that if an issue arises, people tend to avoid each other in future, that is not right, we are one body in Christ are we not? (providing we are born again from above )

Instead of going about all of the "Reliable Sources". I drew my information from. Let us observe "UNICEF" Documented data.

Child marriage - UNICEF DATA

Marriage before the age of 18 is a fundamental violation of human rights. Many factors interact to place a child at risk of marriage, including poverty, the perception that marriage will provide ‘protection’, family honor, social norms, customary or religious laws that condone the practice, an...

data.unicef.org

I am sorry but my target was not the "exploits" of child marriages, But to add to the "Light" of all my other "Threads" for in which, it is a part of a "Puzzle" or a "Mosaic" in Light of The Original Text [Manuscript] of The Written Word of GOD. Pertaining to The Things to Come. For Prophecy is being fore filled. The Decaying of "The World", only Technology is improving, But the things the Bible has declared, is moving at a rapid pace. For this earth turns at a speed of almost 1400 mph, and many don't even know it, Some may even think that the earth stands still. and The SUN sets in the West and Raises in The East.

We know The "Adversary" is not a "Independent Organization", This Adversary is well skilled, His target is not "Child Marriages" His Target are "SOULS" This Creature, Hunts The "Predators and The Prey"! Satan is Not, "Prejudice"! He is a lot more than The Beast and more skilled. A Christian may give "SATAN" commands and He obey's, but A True "Son of GOD" knows better. And that dog will not Hunt! He might resist The Devil, but give him a command is another thing and comes under another "Title".

Hope this source is applicable, "UNICEF".

The private study I have done consists of all types of men, and their replies, pertaining to my Post # 2. would not be appropriate on "TalkJesus" for many would be offended by the language men have use. These men consists, who proclaim they are "christians" and they believe in GOD. For I do not question their believeth, I just ask them how old they are and are they married, If not what age group you prefer to date, and why.

Then there are some men sights, on the internet, and many have the same insights, The more money the man makes, the younger the girl, the Choice of a woman who have not been trained of thoughts by another man. This group had never been married. The lower class of income men, flavors older and career minded women. In which she has no intention to marry and have had multi experiences in relationship both men and women. and just yesterday, i address a 33 year old male cable engineer, who was single. And how he preferred older women and Because. then i explain to him, and his eyes open wide! And I over heard him giving praise to Jesus and GOD on his phone earlier. And I explain to him what was going on! But He thought, that the older was wiser and more Mature and settle, than the young! For He even thought his assessment of such a matter, was right on point. And i just spoke "Truth" in less than 5 five minutes! And that boy came to the light! You could see it on his face.

Now what The Bible calls "Adulterers" they are all over the board. I didn't even address that group.

I almost got relieve of my duties at one church i was a "Associated" Pastor there, because I wanted to have a "Group of young Men" and called them: "The Men of Proverbs" and the only thing we were going to do, is "read" the Book of Proverbs, every Sunday Morning. Not to teach it, just read it, until it was engaved into their mines. And the "pastor' told me, he didn't wanted me to do it. I was preparing those boys, for a "accredited University" and was going to find the money for them to go there. And he wanted me to teach them how to use "protection" and to use reverse "Psychology"on them! And I started "HUFFING & PUFFING SMOKE"!.. AND I knew i was on my own, I knew, what view the crowd wanted. "We want "Barabbas"! send us "Barabbas"! I used to preach to that group, they would say, when he preach, we have "Nightmares" in the night and wake up Screaming JESUS! Some of them would say, i was sitting in the "pew" there, my knees start shaking! we would laugh! I would tell them, it scared too! In those days, It was the Days of The "Orators"! Back then, they would say; "Preach The Hell right out of them"! when they left out that congregation that night, they would not step on a Ant!

I felt no harm in your response, Brother Paul, most of the time you prime my pump. then i throw you into realms of excitement, and get your blood pumping and you forget all your troubles. at least for a minute. at least we do kinda understand each other in Christ. Just remember when you step on a grape in the vineyard you might slip and fall, and the very juices from the grape you slipped on might make its way into your mouth, you might get drunk! For the vineyard we walk in produce "Vintage Wine"! Ageless.

There was no harm done, but considering "Iron sharpens Iron" and once the Iron has been sharpen, who knows who the "Blade was sharpen for".!

I hope you like that, because i do!

Dear brother,

First sentence... you do not appear to be very humble. It is not you that throws me into the realms of excitement and get my blood pumping, no, no, it is the Holy Spirit that I can assure you my friend.

Last sentence... you do not appear to be very humble.

Now back to post 1 if I may

How common is child marriage?
Worldwide, more than 700 million women alive today were married before their 18th birthday. More than one in three (about 250 million) entered into union before age 15. Boys are also married as children, but girls are disproportionately affected.

About 15 million Girls a year.
140 millions girls before the age of 18 will marry.

It appears you are talking of the situation today, but your post did not make that clear, nor did it say the source of your information.

Not knowing the above, I commented on the title and your initial statement.

In most of the World Child Brides are common

Child marriage is not new PB, it was common even with the Jews, in the world where arranged marriages took place it was more common.

True or False? --- It is as we know true.

Sorry, Brother-Paul i must ask this question of you, The reason is, by your reply to my "Thread". Have you ever, presented a "sermon" and How do you "draw your 'Text" and present it, or have you presented a "biblicaL Lecture". And how is the Text drawn in your Lectures. Because, I must say this, Because before you take any course in a Biblical Sound College, you must take "Electives" before you get into anything about the Bible. And in "Bible Introduction 101" you must Learn about the "cultures" it is written in. And mostly every bIblical student, study the age factor of "Marriage", and "Westernization" way of marriage is the "New Kid" on the block!

Note: Topic World Child Brides, my comment 'child marriage is not new'.

Where on earth does your reply fit the topic PB?

I do not mind rubbing swords with you on scripture, it is healthy for us all to do so, in love, in peace. But where I draw the line is when you come over as, you know, you have studied it, I am not saying where, not even saying when, yet have the audacity to quote, learning about cultures and sermons to me after your posts on here.

You see, that was why I said, you can get off your orange box now.

Let us respect each other brother and post in love.

Sorry for doing you harm, I repent. But remember or may i remind some, I am not a "Christian" , so do not treat me like one, or expect me to act like one, And it hurts me, and offends when others expects me to act like one. And It disturbs me, when other people tries to tell me, who i am and what i am. When I have declared what i am and what I am not! I respect all Christians, and all of their churches! from "RCC clear to the grave" But I choose "Christ" Alone! "Sola Christus"! If i go to hell, for believing in such a way, so "help me GOD"!

So i will keep my conversation "Limited" with you, to the arena of worldly affairs , and i will have an introduction with those "parameters' only. The worlds view.

Peace to you, and my words to you will be the words of peace as this world has describe peace. and there will be no arguments or Mis-understanding. in Peace, i leave you

I meant you no harm. have a nice day. no need to reply. Forgive me. I cannot be any kinder.

Greetings PB

Regarding your comment brother, 'I am not a Christian', a lot depends on the definition of the word Christian and it's original source.

I am not a Christian either PB, based on the fact it is not a word in the Bible, it is a word that was brought in sometime later. (Bit like church kuriakkon and others)

But, it would be true to say that, I am a Christian, based on its definition, I am a follower of Christ. But here, I think, is where the issue lies. We can be a follower of Christ and not be truly born again from above, not be washed and regenerated by the Holy Spirit. Conclusion: it is all in the persons head, The Truth has never reached the persons heart, so they are not Christians at all, they are lost souls destined for judgement and hell, believing they are Christians, believing they are saved, all because the deceiver of souls has done his job on them.

So I am not a Christian either PB, based on what the world thinks a Christian is.

Most importantly PB, we can say, and know in our heart, we are Born Again, washed and spiritually regenerated, creatures who are Saved by the Grace and Love of God through Jesus Christ our Lord and Saviour.

Now to conclude briefly on the other items, we are similar creatures, though very different, we hunger and thirst for The Word, but never get hungry or thirsty, we Love the Truth and want to share The Truth to a deaf and blind world, but in doing so we must respect one another, love one another, help one another, encourage one another in Christ Jesus our Lord. We are spiritual stones in one Body of Christ, the True ekklesia, we are inter joined (bonded is the stone masons term) with other true, born again from above souls, we cannot, we must not, distance ourselves from one another, how can we clap with only one hand, how can we walk with only one leg, we are part of the Body of Christ when we are truly born again from above and have been washed and spiritually regenerated.

You know all this my friend, I am not preaching to you, and I think this is sometimes the issue, it is a Christian forum, ermmmm sorry, a TalkJesus forum, there are many truly saved brothers and sisters on here, (and many not), we must respect they are part of the same body we are all part of, do we preach to the saved the same way as to the lost? You know the answer brother, sometimes but not always. Denomination influence, along with what we do today is right, is clear to see, we do not have that issue, so lets move forward in love and respect for one another in Christ.

Jesus loves you my friend, you know what? I do too.

In His Love
