(Rom.1:28–2:9; Matt.5:27–32) “Whoever looks at a woman...has already committed adultery with her” (Matthew 5:28). What can you do if, living in society, you can’t help but look at your wives? But it is not just the one who looks at his wife who commits adultery, but the one who looks at him with lust. Look - look, but keep your heart on a leash. See through the eyes of children who look at women purely, without any bad thoughts. Women must also be loved, for in the commandment about loving one’s neighbors they are not excluded, but with pure love, in which there is a soul and spiritual affinity in thought, among other things... In Christianity, as before God, there is no male or female, and in the mutual relations of Christians. In every possible way, you might say, it’s difficult. Yes, there is no such thing as struggle, but struggle presupposes the unwillingness of harm; reluctance is counted as purity by the merciful Lord. You might be interested in:
