    I have been thinking about the creation of mankind. Perhaps I need clarification on the existant of mankind. In the Book of Genesis, after Adam and Eve disobedience of God, weren’t there curses placed upon them? Such as;women having labor pains, a man’s desires and rulers over them and many days of sorrows, etc, Men would work by the sweat of their brows and bruising the snake’s head, etc. My point is this, before Adam and Eve ate the forbidden fruit they were like children in the garden pure of heart. So they were united in purity but cursed with the marriage. Therefore the believers of God are to be pure before marriage, how is this marriage blessed? I, like others married unholy. We as Christ believers are not teaching body holliness due to not being holy in our bodies, which makes our words voided if we do not do this thing. For Christ said “be ye holy for I am holy”. This point is presented because there are too much talk about sexual relationships especially in the churches now. There are not enough talk about how to know Jesus and perhaps no one really holy enough to make a different. I would like to see more people that loves peoples and not caught up in individual desires, that’s willing to die for good causes in Jesus name. You notice hardly any sermon stationed on Paul messages, the new Paul as abiding like he did, not touching a woman, and if you are marry living as though you are not in the priesthood, living single in Christ is better than being marry. This is the part that world frown upon, it is being single and doing the right thing. This is the part I would like to see more of and not discriminated on. Because this is the way Jesus lived, because it is written no one can love two masters. Lord teach me to Love you only.
