My name is Don. I am a Christian. I have a question that I would like some response to. Feel free to pm me My situation is this. I am married, but I have legally separated from my wife. When we got married, I was not a Christian. By the time I asked Jesus into my heart, my marriage was on the rocks. It became not only mentally abusive on both sides, but also physically abusive.My saying was and still is that the police were going to walk one of us out and carry the other one. I am also, bi polar. We tried Christian counseling, regular marriage cousneling but nothing seemed to work. 4 years ago I met a woman. Her marriage is also rocky. We fell in love...a kind of love I never felt for my wife. Long story short...the 2 of us are planning on divorcing our spouses in January and getting married to each other. I am still seeing this woman, even though we both are still married. We have had sexual relations, including intercourse...in the past, but we are not having intercourse now and we havent had for the last 2 out of 4 years. We both feel that God put us together because He could see how unhappy we were. We are planning a trip to the alter AFTER we are divorced, to ask God to forgive us. My question is "Does God still bless His people even though they continue to commit the same sin over and over...in this case, adultery, I feel God knows our heart, He knows we are heading in the right direction to repent from this sin. But that direction means that we are getting divorced, and remarrying each other. By the way, she too is a Chirstian and she has no love what so ever for her husband and she is still living with him until January. He is (and has been) emotionally abusive to her. He also is NOT a Christian. I wonder if we are still sinning by seeing each other, with the knowledge that both of us will be divorced. Are we committing adultery even if we are not having intercouse. Now let me say, we are not teen agers. I am 51 and she is 52. We have recently purchased a house together, but we will not sleep with each other until we are married. We will have separate rooms.
I feel in my heart and from what has happened in my life these last 4 years that God is INDEED blessing me regardless of the fact that we are still seeing each other.
I could go on, but it would take much more space. If anyone has any answers, (or questions for me) please feel free to post or email me.
Thank you,
Don
