I'm riding out a tragic storm in my life. Please keep me in prayer. Always looking for friends to talk to, but for now that is all. I married a girl from Circleville, Ohio, a year ago, but she took off in June and destroyed our marriage and home. She will not listen to our pastors and sit down and talk.
In less than 9 months she went from being on fire to being in total rebellion against all our pastors and the Word of God. She wanted me to toss out my stand on a lot of modesty and separation issues in her final email to me. Stay away from anyone who wants you to water down your doctrine or holiness and modesty standards! God gave them to you for a reason Oneness Apostolics!
Never let go of what God gave you. Keep the old landmarks! They are there for a reason.
In this situation, it could be postpartum depression from two back to back miscarriages (per me), or a seed of rebellion not dealt with years ago (per her pastor), but beware of anyone that beats you down emotionally and critiques and tears on your walk with God, never prays through...then tries to exalt themselves as better than you if you fail or raise your voice after weeks of ridicule, verbal abuse and degradation. I'm now dealing with someone that not only does not care if they lie, steal and press false charges, and bear false witness, but will not listen to the ministry or conduct their selves (family included) like Apostolic Pentecostals. (God delivered me from all their actions and it was prophesied I would step into a more powerful level with my walk with God after my storm.)
Birds of a feather flock together, Apostolics. Like people, like priest. As is the mother, so is the daughter!
I just found out that if my wife had filed here in VA she could have been divorced by Christmas. Since she took off back to Ohio she can't file until December and must wait until June for it to be final. She's not an Ohio resident yet and is no longer a VA resident! God has a sense of humor, people!
Isn't it funny how people backslide and go off on their own tangents to violate the Word of God and get their selves all screwed up so bad they can't do anything right! They can't even get backsliding "right"...if there is such a thing!
Kind of like her pastor who refused to judge sin in their local assembly and put an end to people's sin simply because they were tithe-payers in his local assembly and I live out of state. In this case he knew about her rebellion for 6 years and refused to correct her and her family and God dropped it right back in his lap. Ultimately the courts stepped in and put an end to her fraud, perjury and slander...and a pastor ended up losing the favor of God off an entire congregation and ministry. I wrote him and told him that their lies and perjury could have cost me my clearance, job, career, my home and the ability to support my family and he would do nothing about it, even though the courts had already ruled she had lied and had no grounds and even admitted under oath to only filing her allegations to keep me from trying to reconcile the marriage. That's petty, vindictive, dirty and absurd!
It's sad when people ignore God's word and think they "dodged a bullet," by avoiding stirring up a stink in their church and instead by following flesh instead of God's Word they end up cutting off the Life's Blood of the Spirit that keeps their local assembly alive.
What could ever be worse than having God accept a minister's decision to disobey God's Word...and snuff out the candlestick of God's Spirit and allow that ministry and assembly to drift away into the eddy's of the current of life and be pushed into a brush pile and completely out of the ebb and flow of the river of the Spirit forever?
That's Spiritual Suicide!
