Theft

by Kathy McFarland - Saturday, 9 November 2013, 7:09 AM
 

The unjustified taking or keeping the goods of another, against his will. There is no theft if the universal destination of goods is violated past reasonable judgment.  For instance, the theft of provisions to provide for the essential life needs of a person (food, shelter, clothing, etc), especially the gleaning of produce first given by God or the occupancy of an emptied space for survival purposes, is not a sin.  (Eighth Commandment Violation, Exodus 20:15)

Polygamy

by Kathy McFarland - Friday, 8 November 2013, 12:59 PM
 

Historically, leaders in Biblical times had more than one wife; this helped establish the Jewish nation through its abundance of blessings through the generations. There is no prohibition specifically mentioned in Scripture against polygamy.  However, New Testament marriage, with Christ as the symbolic groom to His church bride, symbolically and typologically holds to one man and one woman as participants in the marriage union. This movement away from polygamy to monogamy progresses as Christ's teachings unfold.  Though polygamy is difficult to classify as a sin, an ongoing, growing, mature relationship with Christ and the teachings of the Holy Spirit leave no doubt to their monogamous expectations concerning marriage (See Titus 1:6 condition of blamelessness). (Seventh Commandment Violation, Exodus 20:14)

Divorce

by Kathy McFarland - Friday, 8 November 2013, 12:48 PM
 

The ratified and consummated marriage between the baptized whose sacramental marriage is blessed by the LORD God cannot be undone by worldly legal authority; spiritual oaths cannot be discounted by natural law. There are legitimate reasons for divorce like violence, abandonment, or affairs that subvert the sanctity of marriage; in these cases, release from the vows of marriage (divorce) is allowed by the Lord.  However, remarriage endangers the new partners of unknowingly committing adultery should the divorce not be inside the acceptable limitations approved by God. Divorce is not necessarily a sin; but remarriage to another might be. (Seventh Commandment Violation, Exodus 20:14)

Adultery

by Kathy McFarland - Friday, 8 November 2013, 12:36 PM
 

Marital infidelity is the sin of adultery; it is when two partners, of whom at least one is married to another party, have sexual relations.  The bond of marriage is in danger by even transient affairs and those imagined and fantasized. Intimate sharing should be reserved for married couples only; thus, full sexual relations are not necessary for the sin of adultery to occur.  When lustful attachments are formed outside the marriage that replaces the spouse for another partner then the sacrament of marriage blessed by the LORD God is marred by sin.  (Seventh Commandment Violation, Exodus 20:14)

Scientific Reproductive Efforts

by Kathy McFarland - Friday, 8 November 2013, 11:07 AM
 

Research biogenetics that manipulate DNA and genes, attempt creation of life through cloning, growth of organs and skin outside the body, develop artificial birth aids, and use aborted stem cells and test tube reproductive efforts are akin to human beings mistakenly assuming they are equal to the Creator and His Creation. (Sixth Commandment Violation, Exodus 20:13)

Scientific reproduction is an attempt to procreate life without God's intentions.  It is not the right of every married couple to have children.  Children are a gift from God.  If a couple cannot conceive, then they should accept God's decision and look for God's will for their union. (Seventh Commandment Violation, Exodus 20:14)

Birth Regulation

by Kathy McFarland - Friday, 8 November 2013, 11:02 AM
 

Any effort made by man or woman in a marriage setting to prevent conception is a sin.  This includes the use of sterilizations, birth control pills, condoms, IUD's and douches ("Morning after" pills are a form of abortion and becomes the even greater sin of murder). The only acceptable form of birth control is periodic continence with self-observation and use of infertile periods for sexual relationships. Protection from unwanted pregnancy outside of marriage should not be an issue, since it is a sin to fornicate. (Seventh Commandment Violation, Exodus 20:14)
