Njyes home and away inconsistency

Today we will keep it short and let the Bible do the talking. You'll see why in just a bit.

Maina and Joseph Kingangi were talking about a certain inconsistency. There are some wives who complain about their husbands' njyes performances. But the same men, who stray get accolades from their mistresses. So they wanted men to explain the inconsistency in the 'home and 'away' matches.

My Human Opinion

It's topics like this that this blog was created for. There needs to be someone countering the falsehoods that spread in the air.

Keeping it brief as promised, there should be NO away match.

Obviously, if there was no 'away' match there would be no inconsistency. Enough said.

My Biblical Opinion

Do you think forbidden fruit tastes sweetest? Please think again. Consider these Bible verses. And we start with the 7th commandment.
Exodus 20:14  "You shall not commit adultery."
Proverbs 5: 15-18
 15 Drink water from your own cistern,
       running water from your own well.
 16 Should your springs overflow in the streets,
       your streams of water in the public squares?

 17 Let them be yours alone,
       never to be shared with strangers.
 18 May your fountain be blessed,
       and may you rejoice in the wife of your youth.
Proverbs 6: 23-35: Warning Against Adultery
 23 For these commands are a lamp,
       this teaching is a light,
       and the corrections of discipline
       are the way to life,
 24 keeping you from the immoral woman,
       from the smooth tongue of the wayward wife.
 25 Do not lust in your heart after her beauty
       or let her captivate you with her eyes,
 26 for the prostitute reduces you to a loaf of bread,
       and the adulteress preys upon your very life.
 27 Can a man scoop fire into his lap
       without his clothes being burned?
 28 Can a man walk on hot coals
       without his feet being scorched?

 29 So is he who sleeps with another man's wife;
       no one who touches her will go unpunished.
 30 Men do not despise a thief if he steals
       to satisfy his hunger when he is starving.
 31 Yet if he is caught, he must pay sevenfold,
       though it costs him all the wealth of his house.
 32 But a man who commits adultery lacks judgment;
       whoever does so destroys himself
.
 33 Blows and disgrace are his lot,
       and his shame will never be wiped away;
 34 for jealousy arouses a husband's fury,
       and he will show no mercy when he takes revenge.
 35 He will not accept any compensation;
       he will refuse the bribe, however great it is.
Matthew 5:27-28
"You have heard that it was said, 'Do not commit adultery.' But I tell you that anyone who looks at a woman lustfully has already committed adultery with her in his heart.
Hebrews 13:4 Marriage should be honored by all, and the marriage bed kept pure, for God will judge the adulterer and all the sexually immoral.
Galatians 6:7-8
Do not be deceived: God cannot be mocked. A man reaps what he sows. The one who sows to please his sinful nature, from that nature will reap destruction; the one who sows to please the Spirit, from the Spirit will reap eternal life.
Finally, let me leave you with the story of one amorous dude called Amnon, one of Sir King David's sons and his half-sister Tamar (2 Samuel 13). Note the bolded portions
 1 In the course of time, Amnon son of David fell in love with Tamar, the beautiful sister of Absalom son of David.
 2 Amnon became frustrated to the point of illness on account of his sister Tamar, for she was a virgin, and it seemed impossible for him to do anything to her.
 3 Now Amnon had a friend named Jonadab son of Shimeah, David's brother. Jonadab was a very shrewd man. 4 He asked Amnon, "Why do you, the king's son, look so haggard morning after morning? Won't you tell me?"
      Amnon said to him, "I'm in love with Tamar, my brother Absalom's sister."
 5 "Go to bed and pretend to be ill," Jonadab said. "When your father comes to see you, say to him, 'I would like my sister Tamar to come and give me something to eat. Let her prepare the food in my sight so I may watch her and then eat it from her hand.' "
 6 So Amnon lay down and pretended to be ill. When the king came to see him, Amnon said to him, "I would like my sister Tamar to come and make some special bread in my sight, so I may eat from her hand."
 7 David sent word to Tamar at the palace: "Go to the house of your brother Amnon and prepare some food for him." 8 So Tamar went to the house of her brother Amnon, who was lying down. She took some dough, kneaded it, made the bread in his sight and baked it. 9 Then she took the pan and served him the bread, but he refused to eat.
      "Send everyone out of here," Amnon said. So everyone left him. 10 Then Amnon said to Tamar, "Bring the food here into my bedroom so I may eat from your hand." And Tamar took the bread she had prepared and brought it to her brother Amnon in his bedroom. 11 But when she took it to him to eat, he grabbed her and said, "Come to bed with me, my sister."
 12 "Don't, my brother!" she said to him. "Don't force me. Such a thing should not be done in Israel! Don't do this wicked thing. 13 What about me? Where could I get rid of my disgrace? And what about you? You would be like one of the wicked fools in Israel. Please speak to the king; he will not keep me from being married to you." 14 But he refused to listen to her, and since he was stronger than she, he raped her.
 15 Then Amnon hated her with intense hatred. In fact, he hated her more than he had loved her. Amnon said to her, "Get up and get out!"
 16 "No!" she said to him. "Sending me away would be a greater wrong than what you have already done to me."
      But he refused to listen to her. 17 He called his personal servant and said, "Get this woman out of here and bolt the door after her." 18 So his servant put her out and bolted the door after her. She was wearing a richly ornamented [a] robe, for this was the kind of garment the virgin daughters of the king wore. 19 Tamar put ashes on her head and tore the ornamented [b] robe she was wearing. She put her hand on her head and went away, weeping aloud as she went.
 20 Her brother Absalom said to her, "Has that Amnon, your brother, been with you? Be quiet now, my sister; he is your brother. Don't take this thing to heart." And Tamar lived in her brother Absalom's house, a desolate woman.
 21 When King David heard all this, he was furious. 22 Absalom never said a word to Amnon, either good or bad; he hated Amnon because he had disgraced his sister Tamar.

Keep and improve the 'home' game only friends. See you tomorrow.
