His kind of love is what is called Agape in the Bible. it is ithe kind of love that asks for nothing from the recipient. in other words unconditional love....yes?
except that here on earth love is beyond a feeling word and is an action word....
so God loves each individual fiercely unconditionally and each hold great value to Him...
I agree with that....
and it is because he values each of us that God would not want us to love unconditionally in action to the point that it litterally destroys us....
that the husband that loves his wife unconditionally should NOT do so in action at all cost...ie life...
so if a husband is married to someone who is a drug addict and destroying the life of children...or who is an infidel and putting at risk the life of their spouse...ie aides, etc...
then it would appear that while the husband is free to maintain the unconditional love in feeling...they should not continue the unconditional love in ACTION...
to point of destroying their own life....
meaning that if I became some out of control unfaithful wife to Mr. Ark....he may be called by God to always hold on to love for me...God would not expect him to continue to sleep with me to the point of causing his own death...
I believe that God values the individual equally...
and does not value the man through his unconditional love in destructive actions...
Sure, it will hurt. Crosses hurt. Spikes in your hand hurt. Spikes in your feet hurt. Spears in your side hurt. No one is saying that loving your wife wont hurt. why do you say this motarman?...I would say that there are plenty of marriages in which love is not a painful thing but a blessed thing.......that there are plenty of marriages in which either has yet to hurt the other in any way that is more than superficial petty silly things....
and that these marriages are blessed by God...
As I have listed above, sacrifice…true sacrifice…is a public event. It has to be seen, by your wife and by others. Sacrifice also means you must suffer. It is the nature of sacrifice. If you are not suffering, then it isn’t sacrifice yet. As I outlined above. grandiose demonstrative sacrifices ?
Four women were trapped in the storm as baseball sized hail rained down. And that sized hail can kill you. Their husbands were underneath an overhang, and when they saw their wives trapped in the deluge, they bolted out from underneath and ran thru the hail to them. thousands sacrifice their lives for strangers as well...we become who we are meant to be..children of God...by being who we should be...brothers to our brothers....
God can’t raise something or someone that hasn’t died yet. In order to have a Crown, you have to have a Cross. You must die. are you saying that God wants each marriage to be visited by some horrible trajedy...that is his vision of marriage...
