Why do well read Christians think the Bible Teaches that People in the Bible got married because they fell in Love, Joesph and Mary was not in Love

[PloughBoy]

Name One and then Ten, Patriarchs in the Bible fell in love and got Married, May be, "SAMSOM" to That Philistine, not The One who Pleases Him well, But The Who cut his Hair. "Delilah". I can remember not one at this time married a woman because they were in Love. But one thing for sure they married a lot of their sisters and cousins. and sister in laws if their brother died not having children. But not, it was heard of, they married because they were in love.

The men married young girls and older women, a lot order too.

I really think, that love thing don't work. it is a "Developing World" worldly thing and that concept has cause a lot of these people to get divorce and repeatedly 4 and 5 times, calling them selves in love. They are not in Love!

Real LOVE and Only one kind of love it is, is "KEEPING GODS COMMANDMENTS! Honestly too much false Love is in the air. They need to start getting married for sex. they might stay together longer. When you know If you don't stay together no more sex! and if commit "Adultery" or remarry or commit "Fornication" YOU are GOING TO HELL! I bet people will stay together longer, and bring back, Multiple wives, like the kings did and The Patriarchs: "ABRAHAM, Isaac, and Jacob"!

Like I may say this love thing [so called love] is not real love it is trick of the devil to make a person go to HELL, it leads to "Adultery, Fornication, Whoredom, Whoremonger, And All Kinds Of Debauchery. I am not saying this can be repaired that which is broken, we are way down the rabbit hole now.

Many People who get married are not in love. Their is one real kind of Love, "keeping GOD's Commandments" by doing so it makes your life safe. With a blessing of sex. and nobody wants a used car that got milage on it. Nobody wants to drive a car and the car got its mind on another road that it once travel.

And it will drift and stray into another lane while driving it! for The devil will make sure it drifts and both of you will feel the affects.

They did not Teach us the Whole TRUTH the ones That Really Counted. And Our Life Depended On The Truth They Left Out!
It Created Generation Sins, And Practices that cannot be repaired. Too far down the rabbit hole. in developing Countries.

The religious leaders lead us astray and destroyed our household un aware and enter into silly women households turning them against their own husbands, because of "trinkets" and not favoring "GODLINESS with "CONTENTMENT" which is a Great Gain"

These are only thoughts produce by bible history that was produce By the Biblical text of "Holy Scripture" alone.

Real love only comes from God, that is everlasting. Human love can so easily be confused with loneliness, need of an emotional physical connection or interaction with the opposite mate, human love can be deeply rooted in lust and emptiness longing to be filled - our emotions, sensory perceptions, unrealistic expectations, hopes projected onto our mates

with the situation of the Old Testament prophets, kings and priests and women and their accounts described in scripture

these Godly biblical characters who recognized and followed Gods standards of marriage made them their goals and objectives in their own lives as standard moral conduct.
​

even though that there were many, many mistakes and failures that did occur by the biblical men and women of God in marriage, these godly biblical marriage standards were still always their goals and objective in their own lives as a standard moral code of conduct that god asks that we follow concerning marriage. This is why, even though many times failures and mistakes happened the God of the Bible wants us to follow the examples of the characters mentioned in the Old Testament and to recognize these failures as sinful - that we also will repent and turn away from them and teach our children to do the same.

When The Love of GOD Reigns in us, That love, does not divorce, That LOVE does not need to be Love back. That Love goes forward, even while it is been walked one, desecrated on, it keeps on loving, it loves even the one who have done us wrong even when one is shamed, Love keeps going on to those who have abused us and step on backs and has slap us in the face! and we do not revenge or "Justice" but we are a proclaimer of "Mercy" as well as grace!

Oh this world does not hear me. I am Speaking "JESUS" The CHRIST of "The LIVING GOD", many claim I know Him, but yet they demand "Justice" and Pay back" and yet they declare they Know The Love of GOD! he rape me, he committed adultery, he doesn't work he is lazy, and I want Justice, But yet they claim They Know The "LOVE OF GOD!". I will not obey my husband for we have equal rights and the Bible is a lie and out dated, He must obey me!!! because if Mama is mad the Whole house is not going to be happy!!


Berean Study Bible
10 Every wise woman builds her house, but a foolish one tears it down with her own hands.
11The heart of her husband doth safely trust in her, so that he shall have no need of spoil.
12She will do him good and not evil All The Days Of Her Life. [for she will deny herself]

"for by their fruits you will know them"

16These six things The Lord Hates,
Yes, seven are an abomination to [h]Him:
17A proud look,
A lying tongue, [an backbiting tongue]
Hands that shed innocent blood,
18A heart that devises wicked plans,
Feet that are swift in running to evil,
19A false witness who speaks lies,
And one who sows discord among brethren. [you will not go unpunished]


New King James Version
Who can find a virtuous wife? For her worth is far above rubies.

Proverbs 12:4
A Virtuous Woman Is A Crown To Her Husband: But She That Maketh Ashamed Is As Rottenness In His Bones.

For men have been battered alone, is enough! For we all, are Sinners and all deserves Damnation and to be thrown into The Lake burning with Brimstone And Fire were are worms [thoughts] die not, For we all need to be saved By Grace. Just because you do not see the wickedness of a woman's mind, can be more violent than a man's fists!! for the thoughts of her Mind will tear down Kingdoms faster that any man's sword, and she still goes undetected.

But GOD!!! has the eyes to See, and he knows her end. so it has been "decreed from "The Beginning to the end" So men do not "revenge" yourself But Let GOD! he will do more damage that your fists or your Gun, for He will take revenge for He said: "Vengeance is Mines I will repay" I say Trust Him, Put your trust in His word!

Warnings against Adultery

20My son, keep your father’s commandment,
and do not forsake your mother’s teaching.
21Bind them always upon your heart;
tie them around your neck.

22When you walk, they will guide you;
when you lie down, they will watch over you;
when you awake, they will speak to you.


23For this commandment is a lamp, this teaching is a light,
and the reproofs of discipline are the way to life,

24to keep you from the evil woman,
from the smooth tongue of the adulteress.c

25Do not lust in your heart for her beauty
or let her captivate you with her eyes.d

26For the levy of the prostitute is poverty,e
and the adulteress preys upon your very life.

27Can a man embrace fire
and his clothes not be burned?

28Can a man walk on hot coals
without scorching his feet?

29So is he who sleeps with another man’s wife;
no one who touches her will go unpunished.


Churches and PASTORS and evangelist and bible teachers are not got to warn you about them, But I will!!!!
They do not believe in these "Words of GOD" and they ain't going to quote them either.

10And there a woman met him,
With the attire of a harlot, and a crafty heart.
11She was loud and rebellious,
Her feet would not stay at home.
12At times she was outside, at times in the open square,
Lurking at every corner.
13So she caught him and kissed him;
With an impudent face she said to him:
14“I have peace offerings with me;
Today I have paid my vows.
15So I came out to meet you,
Diligently to seek your face,
And I have found you.
16I have spread my bed with tapestry,
Colored coverings of Egyptian linen.
17I have perfumed my bed
With myrrh, aloes, and cinnamon.
18Come, let us take our fill of love until morning;
Let us delight ourselves with love.
19For my husband is not at home;
He has gone on a long journey;
20He has taken a bag of money [e]with him,
And will come home [f]on the appointed day.”
21[g]With Her Enticing Speech She Caused Him To Yield,
With Her Flattering Lips She Seduced Him.

22Immediately He Went After Her, As An Ox Goes To The Slaughter,
Or As A Fool To The Correction Of The Stocks,
23Till an arrow struck his liver.
As a bird hastens to the snare,
He did not know it would cost his life. [God does not Lie}

PS. Jacob wives and were :Worshippers of Demons and Devils! "idolatry" worshippers they were. They were not Godly wives How many godly wives have you read about =in the Bible? and what is one's definition of "GODLY"? just asking now, do not get upset.

Genesis 31:19
Now while Laban was out shearing his sheep, Rachel stole her father's household idols.

Genesis 31:34
…33So Laban went into Jacob’s tent, then Leah’s tent, and then the tents of the two maidservants, but he found nothing. Then he left Leah’s tent and entered Rachel’s tent. 34Now Rachel had taken Laban’s household idols, put them in the saddlebag of her camel, and was sitting on them. And Laban searched everything in the tentbut found nothing. 35Rachel said to her father, “Sir, do not be angry that I cannot stand up before you; for I am having my period.” So Laban searched, but could not find the household idols


1 Samuel 15:23
For rebellion is like the sin of divination, and arrogance is like the wickedness of idolatry. Because you have rejected the word of the LORD, He has rejected you as king."
NASB 1977
Moreover, the LORD said, “Because the daughters of Zion are proud, And walk with heads held high and seductive eyes, And go along with mincing steps, And tinkle the bangles on their feet,
