Adultery x2

[vera_dicere]

I recently became aware of a rather unsettling situation.

A woman, Christian, made comment that her brother was thinking of having an affair, he is married with two children. This woman gave him a long spiel about how that was wrong and against God, so the brother held off.

However, the brother has sinced kissed the woman who is not his wife. He has also made the comment that he’s happy for “satan to be driving the car” on the journey of his life.

In an horribly unsettling term of events, the sister is now contemplating having an affair, and is justifying it by saying the Ten Commandments don’t exist for us any mroe, because that was in the OT. When confronted by another person with Jesus’ instructions in the NT, she pointed out that we don’t have to pay attention to those instructions because we are human and its too hard.

Her brother is close to having an all out affair and the woman is talking of sleeping with a guy just for the sake of it, but not “going to have a real affair, it’ll just be sex”.

Please pray for both these people, that they realise the seriousness of the sins they are entertaining, and the harm it will cause to so many others. Especially since they are siblings, and because both are married with children. Both have spouses who seem to be afflicted with various levels of clinical depression.

We most certainly do have to pay attention to the Lord’s instructions in the New Testament.

Yes, we are weak, but He has offered His life for us and gives us the grace to conquer our weaknesses, when we ask for it.

Life as we know has its ups and downs, these ups and downs are also experienced in our marriages, sometimes they come in financial or economic form, at times physical or health form… so is the desire for sex - more sex, and we sometimes seem to go all out even when it means breaking our marital vows and committing adultery.
I join with you today to pray for our Brother and our Sister who are experiencing this fate now that they may once again remember their marriage vows, and that Our Dear Mother Mary intercede for them and all couples in this situation, for God to re-establish His reign in their lives. Amen

Paul

The Commandments are certainly supported in the New Testament, Lord alert these two people to the truth and prevent them from further adultery and from destroying four families, risking much unhappiness and the loss of their souls. Please give them strength to stop now, heeding the word of the New Testament.

In Matthew 19 verses 16-19 Jesus, You directly stated that that we must obey the Commandments to enter heaven:
**16 "Now someone approached him and said, “Teacher, what good must I do to gain eternal life?”
17 He answered him, “Why do you ask me about the good? There is only One who is good. If you wish to enter into life, keep the commandments.”

18 He asked him, “Which ones?”
And Jesus replied,
'You shall not kill;
you shall not commit adultery;
you shall not steal;
you shall not bear false witness;

19 honor your father and your mother’; and ‘you shall love your neighbor as yourself.’**"

"Do not be deceived; God is not mocked, for whatever a man sows, that he will also reap. For he who sows to his own flesh will from the flesh reap corruption; but he who sows to the Spirit will from the Spirit reap eternal life. And let us not grow weary in well-doing, for in due season we shall reap, if we do not lose heart." [Galations 6:7-9]

Mother Mary, I commend these two siblings to you. Please intercede for them and ask Our Lord to enlighten them, to grant them contrition and the pardon of all their sins. Amen.

Lord God, I pray for these siblings. May they realize that what they are doing and what they intend to do are sins. Please touch their hearts, minds, and souls so that they may repent and avoid any future near occasion of sin. Please bless their spouses and their families. AMEN.
