Chapter 19: Myth—Sexuality Doesn’t Matter

Page 122

I remember thinking, “Okay God, now You’VE got my attention!” As

an ex-quality control engineer and manufacturing executive, my statistical background had me astonished that God would ask me to talk to a woman that actually could be compatible with what He was asking me to do. What is that? It is to teach Christians the truth of His Word and to ask them to

stop their apostate teachings about the Bible, salvation, Christ and about God Himself. It is to give Christianity the message that many Christians will be going to Hell, because they are practitioners of lawlessness in God’s eyes. That Jesus will be telling them “I never knew you.” This book is the

message God has given me to explain which Christians Jesus is talking to.

Suddenly I began to wonder where God was leading me with this particular woman. There is no doubt that without a good wife as a helpmate that I am not whole. The moment Jackie began to die, I could feel part of

my own flesh being ripped out of my chest. I am incomplete and both God and I know that I will remain incomplete until He brings a new helpmate worthy of the task He has called me to do. That’s to say my next wife would also have to be worthy and willing to support such a ministry. I’ve

never had any exposure to an arranged marriage especially any kind of spiritual one. In fact, the whole idea seemed strange to me so I immediately clicked off a mental list of criteria that my next wife would “absolutely” have to have. “So, I guess Lord, that in addition to the four character

attributes I already asked for, I will need the following other attributes.”

1. She’d have to love children. 2. She’d have to love shopping.

3. She’d have to be excited about life. 4. She’d have to want to live a long life. 5. She’d have to be a strong woman. 6. She’d have to be an independent thinker.

7. She’d have to be knowledgeable of the Bible. 8. She’d have to be supportive of the ministry. 9. She’d have to be spiritually compatible. 10. She’d have to be sexually compatible.

11. She’d have to be willing to follow my spiritual lead. 12. She’d have to not want to start a new family.
