Lady, IT'S WRONG!!!!!\nExodus 20:14  Thou shalt not commit adultery.\n\nLeviticus 20:10  And the man that committeth adultery with another man's wife, even he that committeth adultery with his neighbour's wife, the adulterer and the adulteress shall surely be put to death.\n\nDeuteronomy 5:18  Neither shalt thou commit adultery.\n\nProverbs 6:32  But whoso committeth adultery with a woman lacketh understanding: he that doeth it destroyeth his own soul.\n\nJeremiah 3:8  And I saw, when for all the causes whereby backsliding Israel committed adultery I had put her away, and given her a bill of divorce; yet her treacherous sister Judah feared not, but went and played the harlot also.\n\nJeremiah 3:9  And it came to pass through the lightness of her whoredom, that she defiled the land, and committed adultery with stones and with stocks.\n\nJeremiah 5:7  How shall I pardon thee for this? thy children have forsaken me, and sworn by them that are no gods: when I had fed them to the full, they then committed adultery, and assembled themselves by troops in the harlots' houses.\n\nJeremiah 7:9  Will ye steal, murder, and commit adultery, and swear falsely, and burn incense unto Baal, and walk after other gods whom ye know not;\n\nJeremiah 23:14  I have seen also in the prophets of Jerusalem an horrible thing: they commit adultery, and walk in lies: they strengthen also the hands of evildoers, that none doth return from his wickedness: they are all of them unto me as Sodom, and the inhabitants thereof as Gomorrah.\n\nJeremiah 29:23  Because they have committed villany in Israel, and have committed adultery with their neighbours' wives, and have spoken lying words in my name, which I have not commanded them; even I know, and am a witness, saith the LORD.\n\nEzekiel 16:32  But as a wife that committeth adultery, which taketh strangers instead of her husband!\n\nEzekiel 23:37  That they have committed adultery, and blood is in their hands, and with their idols have they committed adultery, and have also caused their sons, whom they bare unto me, to pass for them through the fire, to devour them.\n\nHosea 4:2  By swearing, and lying, and killing, and stealing, and committing adultery, they break out, and blood toucheth blood.\n\nHosea 4:13  They sacrifice upon the tops of the mountains, and burn incense upon the hills, under oaks and poplars and elms, because the shadow thereof is good: therefore your daughters shall commit whoredom, and your spouses shall commit adultery.\n\nHosea 4:14  I will not punish your daughters when they commit whoredom, nor your spouses when they commit adultery: for themselves are separated with whores, and they sacrifice with harlots: therefore the people that doth not understand shall fall.\n\nMatthew 5:27  Ye have heard that it was said by them of old time, Thou shalt not commit adultery:\n\nMatthew 5:28  But I say unto you, That whosoever looketh on a woman to lust after her hath committed adultery with her already in his heart.\n\nMatthew 5:32  But I say unto you, That whosoever shall put away his wife, saving for the cause of fornication, causeth her to commit adultery: and whosoever shall marry her that is divorced committeth adultery.\n\nMatthew 19:9  And I say unto you, Whosoever shall put away his wife, except it be for fornication, and shall marry another, committeth adultery: and whoso marrieth her which is put away doth commit adultery.\n\nMatthew 19:18  He saith unto him, Which?

My husband and I have been married for a year and have been together for 5 years.  The first year was fine...2 months after we started dating I moved to Texas with my parents...9 months later I moved back to where he was and we moved in together I'd say about 6 months later is when it started.  He would get really angry because I was complaining too much about his job or that he wouldn't do the dishes when I asked and he would throw chairs...at the time we had those little plastic picnic chairs...and clothes at me or near me.  He would yell and scream at me and get right up in my face.  I don't remember him ever laying a hand on me during that time though.  About a year or two later we ended up breaking up mostly because we needed to be our own people for a while considering I was 17 when we moved in together and he was 20.  We were apart for about 2 months then we got back together and I moved in with him and his roommate at the time.  About a month or so later we got our own place and soon after that is when the major abuse started.  I never chalked it up as abuse though until I was watching some show and realized that my boyfriend was abusing me.  When he would get really mad at me he would grab my neck and pin me to the wall or throw me to the couch or the bed or where ever we were.  He has only slapped me twice and I've gotten a few bruises on my neck.  After I realized it was abuse I started to fight back and when he would grab my neck I would kick at him and push him away...I only did that a couple times because it made him even more angry.  We did end up getting married about 6 months after we got back together.  A lot of the abuse happened soon after we got married.  I only remember actually losing my breath and struggling to breath once...and that was a couple of months ago when we were in a car and arguing about he wanted to change his oil in front of an auto parts store but there was a guy outside that when my husband was in the store kept walking past the car looking at me in a weird way so when my husband came back to the car I told him I wanted to leave and told him the reason and so he got all upset and acted like a total baby and so on the way home I told him that him being my husband should want to protect me and want me to feel safe and whatever and I guess I said something wrong and he reached over and grabbed my neck and didn't let go right away like he normally did.  We got home soon after that and I went in and started to pack my things to leave and he came in and threw me on the bed and told me I wasn't leaving so I decided to leave my things and just leave and he just kept stopping me grabbing my wrists and he pushed me and I fell over a foot rest and hit my head.  I don't remember why I didn't leave.  but since then we have gone to a counselor I think two times...but now he works so much that we argue on the phone.  He never did this when he was drinking...we don't drink very much.  I don't know how he could do this to me either...he always said it was because I knew what made him mad but I still did it.  I have changed because of this...I don't say as much anymore and I pick and choose my words...I can't say I am afraid of him though.  I still say what I want when I'm really angry.  I know hes more afraid of my step dad than I am afraid of him though.  It use to happen at least once a week to twice a month.  We don't have kids...we have animals...whenever he kicks the dog I kick him...so see I'm not that afraid of him...I am for a couple weeks after the events happen though but normally I'm not.  He is intimidating though because hes a foot and a half taller than me.

Sadly, I had this problem with my husband too.  We sat down with the elders of our church after he threw a glass at me that bruise all the toes on my left foot.  The very nicely explained to him a series of important scriptures on how he can learn to value me. \n\nBut also after it happened, my dad gave me some great advice, so simple, but it really worked.  OVer the phone (my husband travels for a living) I told him that some members of the congregation were aware of what was going on, and he explained that he wished I hadn't told people, and I told him that I hadn't, (my sister and husband also live with us, so it's not like there aren't witnesses) but just that they were made aware of it.  (If other people find out about it, they get embarrassed, like the rest of the time they're in denial, but when others find out about it, they can't pretend it didn't happen.) I told him that from now on, WE weren't going to hang up the phone on each other, WE weren't going to be throwing things at each other, WE weren't going to be saying "I'm going to leave you!", WE just weren't going to do any of that.  Mind you, I've never done any of that to him, but it sounds better to say "We" than 'you you you'.  His response was, "it's going to take some time" and I said, "no it's not.  Right now, that's when we're starting.  We don't need any extra time, it's already been three + years of this, and we're just going to start from right now." I think he was surprised.  My tone wasn't angry or yelling, it was just straightforward.  He hasn't thrown anything at me since, and he still gets irritated, but that's natural.  Throwing things and cussing me out is not.  \n\nIf your husband has any kind of spiritual nature, I encourage you both to sit down and read this scriptures together, which have really helped us.  What it boils down to, is that usually a husband doesn't respect himself, and since you are his 'one flesh' and 'complement', if he doesn't respect himself or is insecure, he may not respect you as well.  I try to build my honey up whenever I can and tell him how great he is at this or that and that there's no reason for him to be insecure.  (by the way, the cup-throwing incident was because I fed the cat a piece of shrimp on the couch, which you would think a cat would gobble up, but not my cat, he sat there licking it. Hubby wasn't happy at all, I admitted it was dumb and I wouldn't do it again, but he got so upset, he actually hurt me, so I understand the 'small things' that should never make them that upset. The real truth is that there are underlying issues, not just the shrimp.)\n\nEph 4:26 Be wrathful, and yet do not sin; let the sun not set with YOU in a provoked state, 27 neither allow place for the Devil. 29 Let a rotten saying not proceed out of YOUR mouth, but whatever saying is good for building up as the need may be.\n\n(In other words, a person is going to be wrathful at times, but the point is not to sin or get to a provoked state without resolving it, to do so leaves open a place for the 'Devil' to disrupt your family, possibly leading to divorce. (Satan likes divorce, since it breaks up God's divine arrangement of marriage. We certainly don't want to leave a place open for him in our families.)\n\n\nEph 4:31 Let all malicious bitterness and anger and wrath and screaming and abusive speech be taken away from YOU along with all badness. 32 But become kind to one another, tenderly compassionate, freely forgiving one another just as God also by Christ freely forgave YOU.\n\n(Basically, God forgives us for the many things we do, surely we should forgive each other for the minor things.)\n\nEph 5:28 In this way husbands ought to be loving their wives as their own bodies. He who loves his wife loves himself, 29 for no man ever

I do not disagree with your "challenge".  At times I find myself wondering if I am ignoring Jesus' advice in Matthew 7:06 ("Do not cast your pearls before swine").  I think it is okay for a Christian to get a little emotional in their defense of the faith...as long as it doesn't cross the line to an uncontrolled anger.\n\nAre our words falling on deaf ears?  Maybe they are hardened "reprobates" and they only come here to be "a thorn in the side". But maybe, just maybe, deep inside they come to this page because they know that they might be wrong...

Actually I worked with a very cruel woman who was a minister in the the No Name Church.  She justified mistreating those in her way as necessary in the world at this time.  (I don't think it was their belief, I just think the wrong person in their religion was given some power.)  I witnessed many manipulative cruel schemes in the work place to help her gain a position of power.   I grew up in a fundamentalist hotbed of religion and thought I had seen and heard everything up to that point.  People like Ted Haggard may do damage on a phenomenal scale, but I have never seen evil masked as Christianity as I did with this woman.  It was truly a eye opening experience as I listened to how other members had to come to her for council and her advice . . . such as advising one man to divorce his wife.  Part of her rationalization was the marriage ceremony was not printed in the Bible so it was a man-made contract not supported by the Church.

Jillian was at her wit's end...\n\nShe had two sons, named Zack and Nick, and they were always in trouble. They were beating up the neighbor kids, stealing candy at the store, and wrecking the house almost on a daily basis. And they were only 5 and 7 years old.\n\nShe'd tried counselors, teachers, and psychologists to no avail. Finally, she decided to let Father George, from the local Catholic church give it a try. He asked that they be brought to talk to him separately, so she put Zack in the car first, and drove to the church. She took him by the arm, and led him inside to Father George's office, sat him down in the chair opposite the desk, and went back home.\n\nFather George was a big man, about 6' 5", and looked about 8 feet tall to Zack. He sat there in his chair for a while, just looking at Zack, making him uncomfortable. Finally he said, "Where is God?"\n\nZack was obviously a little nervous, and he didn't say anything.\n\nFather George again said, "Where... is... God?" pausing between words to lend a little gravity to the question.\n\nZack, at this point, is visibly shaken, and starting to turn pale.\n\nFather George stood up, planted his boulder-sized fists on the desk, and leaned forward so as to loom over the boy, and boomed, "WHERE... IS...GOD?"\n\nZack jumped up out of the chair, and ran out of the office, whimpering a little as he did.\n\nFive minutes later he comes running in the house, barely able to breathe. He runs upstairs to Nick's room, where Nick is busy breaking the heads off Mom's antique dolls. Zack slams the door shut, and grabs Nick by the shirt, and says, "We're in BIG trouble this time! They've lost God and they think we took him!"

Oh Goody, romantic Christianity rears it's ugly head.\n\n\nGod kept hitting me up side the head until I listened.

Now I've heard everything! Your wife should be ashamed of herself for behaving in this manner! This is NOT abuse.

I agree...it is NOT ok. \n\nGod loves the SINNER, but hates the SIN. The Lord gave you all the words to say for this, and I can't say anything else, lol. \nThis world needs to see the Light of Jesus and I pray that these posts continue to do just that. :)

That was inexcusable behavior. Contact like that should never EVER happen unless the women asks you to. You need to apologize to your family for being such an embarrassment.

Good point.  \n\nA friend's mum, when confronted with the statement it was a womans fault this happened, replys, 'It took the very Devil himself to tempt Eve.  It only took a woman to tempt the man.'\n\nclever response, I think (whether you are a Christian or not).  It usually shuts them (typically a man) up.

No. If it happens inside a city and she's a virgin engaged to somebody, BOTH the victim and the rapist should be killed by throwing rocks at them.\n\n"If a damsel that is a virgin be betrothed unto an husband, and a man find her in the city, and lie with her; \nThen ye shall bring them both out unto the gate of that city, and ye shall stone them with stones that they die; the damsel, because she cried not, being in the city; and the man, because he hath humbled his neighbour's wife: so thou shalt put away evil from among you."

Sorry to hear about this situation. There are many cases like this out there and I hope that you friend get the help that she is in need of. The reason that she is facing charges by the state is because husband(bastard) filed charges first and he made it seems like self defense against her. Check in your area for a legal aide lawyer or counsel for help not only for the case but for help for her. Tell your friend to keep praying, God is going to turn it around.
