peace-preserving problem-preventing “An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure” “Also it is not good for a soul to be without knowledge, And he sins who hastens with his feet” (Prov. 19:2) part 2: myths

Marriage Myths 1.looking for the perfect person Rom. 3:20-23; Eph. 4:2 2.Looking for the perfect looking person Prov. 31:30 3.good marriages are simply a matter of luck Pr. 25:15; Ps. 109:17, 18

Marriage Myths 4.marry someone who will make me happy no person can make you happy 100% of the time It is common that marriages will have difficulties and challenges as is implied (Col. 3:19; Eph. 5:33) Not a “tick on dog” or “door mat” relationship

Marriage Myths 5.I will change him/her some are attracted to one because of the challenge that one presents

Notable Quote: At times people become attracted to a person because that person presents a challenge. A wild boyfriend may be interesting and exciting when dating. But if a person does not demonstrate change prior to marriage, chances are they will not change after marriage. When you marry and have children you will 'desire' someone who can be responsible with money, who can hold down a job, who will help you with things around the house and with the children. The "excitement" caused by an immature mate WEARS OFF REALLY FAST. (Proverbs 12:4; 14:1; 19:13-14; 27:8). Mark Dunagan,

Marriage Myths 6.“It is better to live in a bad marriage than live alone” “Better to dwell in a corner of a housetop, than in a house shared with a contentious woman” (Prov. 21:9) “Better to dwell in the wilderness, than with a contentious and angry woman” (Prov. 21:19)

Marriage Myths 7.There is a “quick fix” for any troubled marriage we live in a “quick fix” society where instant remedies are demanded marriage problems are linked to problems in people

Things We Ought To Do Golden Rule (Matt. 7:12) Respect & submit (Eph. 5:33, 1 Tim. 3:11) Do not be idle (Prov. 31:27) Use example over your tongue to persuade (1 Pet. 3:1; 1 Jn. 3:18) More points will be added in the close of the next lesson in this series
