CHAPTER XXIV OF MARRIAGE AND DIVORCE

1. MARRIAGE is to be between one man and one woman: neither is it lawful for any man to have more than one wife, nor for any woman to have more than one husband at the same time.1

1. Gen. 2:24; Matt. 19:5-6; Prov. 2:17

2. Marriage was ordained for the mutual help of husband and wife;2 for the increase of mankind with a legitimate issue, and of the church with an holy seed;3 and for preventing of uncleanness.4

2. Gen. 2:18

3. Mal. 2:15

4. I Cor. 7:2,9

3. It is lawful for all sorts of people to marry who are able with judgment to give their consent;5 yet it is the duty of Christians to marry only in the Lord.6 And therefore such as profess the true reformed religion should not marry with infidels or other idolaters; neither should such as are godly be unequally yoked, by marrying with such as are notoriously wicked in their life, or maintain damnable heresies.7

5. Heb. 13:4; I Tim. 4:3; I Cor. 7:36-38; Gen. 24:57-58

6. I Cor. 7:39

7. Gen. 34:14; Exod. 34:16; Deut. 7:3-4; I Kings 11:4; Neh. 13:25-27; Mal. 2:11-12; II Cor. 6:14

4. Marriage ought not to be within the degrees of consanguinity or affinity forbidden by the Word;8 nor can such incestuous marriages ever be made lawful by any law of man, or consent of parties, so as those persons may live together as man and wife.9 v

8. Lev. 18:1-30; I Cor. 5:1; Amos 2:7

9. Mark 6:18; Lev. 18:24-28

5. Adultery or fornication committed after a contract, being detected before marriage, giveth just occasion to the innocent party to dissolve that contract.10 In the case of adultery after marriage, it is lawful for the innocent party to sue out a divorce,11 and, after the divorce, to marry another, as if the offending party were dead.12

10. Matt. 1:18-20

11. Matt. 5:31-32

12. Matt. 19:9; Rom. 7:2-3

Does God Forgive Without Us Repenting?

Speaker: Reverend Joseph Poon

Subscribe Here: https://www.youtube.com/@TheBiblePresbyterianChurchofWA?sub_confirmation=1

Website: http://www.bpcwa.org.au/

INTRODUCTION – (00:00)

QUESTIONS

Q1. In Isaiah 40;1-2, God declares forgiveness although there is no record of repentance on Israel's part. Does God forgive without us repenting? This seems to contradict Psalm 66;18. – (00:14)

Q2. Why do we need to tell unbelievers to repent in our preaching of the gospel if God forgives in salvation and repentance is not required in that sense? – (30:26)

Q3. I understand that God works in the unbelievers’ heart, to cause them to believe in the gospel and turn to Christ through irresistible grace. However, when a born-again believer who has backslided and wandered away from the faith eventually returns to God, is it because God worked in his heart, or the individual has personally decided to do so? – (33:14)

It Is Not Too Late (1 Samuel 12:13-25)

Speaker: Reverend Joseph Poon

Website: http://www.bpcwa.org.au/

====

Bible Passage (KJV): 1 Samuel 12:13-25

13 Now therefore behold the king whom ye have chosen, and whom ye have desired! and, behold, the LORD hath set a king over you. 

14 If ye will fear the LORD, and serve him, and obey his voice, and not rebel against the commandment of the LORD, then shall both ye and also the king that reigneth over you continue following the LORD your God: 

15 But if ye will not obey the voice of the LORD, but rebel against the commandment of the LORD, then shall the hand of the LORD be against you, as it was against your fathers. 

16 Now therefore stand and see this great thing, which the LORD will do before your eyes. 

17 Is it not wheat harvest to day? I will call unto the LORD, and he shall send thunder and rain; that ye may perceive and see that your wickedness is great, which ye have done in the sight of the LORD, in asking you a king. 

18 So Samuel called unto the LORD; and the LORD sent thunder and rain that day: and all the people greatly feared the LORD and Samuel. 

19 And all the people said unto Samuel, Pray for thy servants unto the LORD thy God, that we die not: for we have added unto all our sins this evil, to ask us a king. 

20 And Samuel said unto the people, Fear not: ye have done all this wickedness: yet turn not aside from following the LORD, but serve the LORD with all your heart; 

21 And turn ye not aside: for then should ye go after vain things, which cannot profit nor deliver; for they are vain. 

22 For the LORD will not forsake his people for his great name's sake: because it hath pleased the LORD to make you his people. 

23 Moreover as for me, God forbid that I should sin against the LORD in ceasing to pray for you: but I will teach you the good and the right way: 

24 Only fear the LORD, and serve him in truth with all your heart: for consider how great things he hath done for you. 

25 But if ye shall still do wickedly, ye shall be consumed, both ye and your king.
