    To Burn or to Marry?


    Is it right for a man and a woman who burn for each other (are emotionally and/or sexually infatuated) to get married? If not getting married is going to lead them into fornication, and they are willing to make a life commitment, then the answer is yes. But if they are willing to walk the New Covenant Path, renouncing the flesh (their fallen nature -- mental, emotional and physical) and seek a new birth in Christ, then the answer is no, because no marriage built on the flesh will ever come to perfection. The sexual revolution of the 1960s has led to a world which is almost totally ungovernable morally. Though modern man has thrown away the supersititions of idol worship, he has substituted them for materialism and atheism, and is even worse off than his ancestors. He has become spiritually shallow notwithstanding his great knowledge of the material world. Man must choose which laws he will live. However, God's permissive will is not His absolute will -- God, in His mercy, permits a man to sin in the hope that his encounter with darkness will persuade him to repent. The establishment of lesser laws is to prevent man from slipping into complete darkness. As children and parents obey different, though complimentary, rules, so the spiritually immature and mature obey different, though complimentary, rules also [Oppsal, Oslo, Norway].


    1. It is written that it is better for a man to marry than to burn, and some have therefore supposed that to burn is born of righteousness provided they marry (1 Cor.7:9).

    2. But I, the Lord, have never said that it is good to burn;

    3. But I have said that it is better for two people who burn for each other to be united in marriage to preclude fornication.

    4. A soul that burneth or lusteth after another is not centred in Me but in the flesh;

    The Laws of the Flesh

    5. And when these two souls marry in order to preclude a fall, they do so after the laws of the flesh which I, the Lord, have established that there might be government in the affairs of men on every level, according to the level of righteousness on which they choose to live.

    6. Therefore in marrying they become justified according to that level of government they choose to abide.

    The World Has Become Sexually Ungovernable

    7. But now the world chooseth to reject even this level of government in the affairs of the sexes, and therefore they begin to become ungovernable, and their recovery, or salvation, becometh the harder.

    8. The soul of fallen man is crafty and desperately wicked and deviseth many sophisticated1 arguments to justify its fallen inclinations.

    Modern Man is Crafty

    9. And behold, this generation is the worst of all in this matter, saith the Lord, because unlike other generations, it is largely free of the superstitions and ignorance of its ancestors.

    10. But it hath overturned the priestcraft of false religion and substituted this for the priestcraft and gods of materialism and atheism;

    11. And even though it hath expunged much of the violence and crudity of the false systems which it hath succeeded, it hath also denied much of the goodness and purity thereof, and hath rendered itself anchorless.

    Spiritually Shallow

    12. These people are full of knowledge, saith the Lord, but they are spiritually shallow, having no [wisdom or] root in life.

    13. And when those who are disappointed in the gods of materialism seek after more spiritual things, they choose those corrupt and fallen systems that do not require of them the necessary vision, love, discipline and faith that would save them.

    14. And thus the world groaneth in sin and knoweth not He who would save them.

    15. That which is spiritual is spiritual, and that which is of the flesh is of the flesh, and the two cannot make marriage with one another.

    The Lust of the Flesh is Not of God

    16. Let none suppose therefore that the lust2 of the flesh is of God, for God is spiritual;

    17. But the lust of the flesh is of the world, which abideth in sin, and is perishing.

    Choose the Laws You Will Live

    18. Choose ye this day which laws ye will live but do not ascribe to God that which is imperfect, nor deny the fullness of all His Holy Laws.

    God's Permissive Will

    19. What I permit, I permit out of mercy, that per chance a man may repent and embrace the fullness; otherwise the whole world would be lost forver.

    20. In this same manner be ye merciful unto one another because of your infirmities but see that ye do not use this as an excuse to deny higher things.

    The Fathers and Sons have Different Laws

    21. The son may not be able to abide {live} the law of the father, but he should neither revile nor deny the law of the father.

    22. Likewise those of you who are of the flesh should not deny the things of the spirit, but wait until ye have overcome through the patient trial of your faith, until ye also become fathers and know that their laws are just and true.

    Cultivate Faith

    23. Without faith this is not possible; therefore see that ye cultivate faith, being obedient unto the fathers, even as the fathers were obedient unto their fathers in turn.

    24. Do not seek to excuse yourselves by claiming that the things of the flesh are spiritual, but cultivate grace and abide ye more fully in the celestial covenant which is wholly spiritual, where the fallen flesh cannot corrupt or overturn. Even so. Amen.
