God's Law on Custody of Children and
the Marriage Relationship
The Bible:-
Genesis - women's liberation PROHIBITED by
God
3:16 Unto the woman He (God) said, I will greatly multiply thy sorrow
and thy conception; in sorrow thou shalt bring forth children; and
thy desire [shall be subject] to thy husband, and HE (thy husband) SHALL RULE
OVER THEE.
3:17 And unto Adam He said, Because thou hast hearkened unto
the voice of thy wife (and obeyed her instead of Me), and hast eaten
of the tree, of which I COMMANDED thee, saying, Thou
shalt NOT eat of
it: cursed [is] the ground for thy sake; in sorrow shalt thou eat
[of] it all the days of thy life;
Numbers - God says the father has authority
over HIS children:-
30:2 If a man vow a vow unto the "I AM", or swear an oath to bind his
soul with a bond; he shall not break his word, he shall
do according to
all that
proceedeth out of his mouth.
30:3 If a woman also vow a vow unto the "I AM", and bind herself by a
bond, [being] in her father's house in her
youth;
30:4 And her father hear her vow, and her bond wherewith she hath
bound her soul, and her father shall hold his peace at her: then all
her vows shall stand, and every bond wherewith she hath bound her
soul shall stand.
30:5 But if her father disallow her in the day that he heareth; not
any of her vows, or of her bonds wherewith she hath bound her soul,
shall stand: and the "I AM" shall forgive her, because her father
disallowed her.
In order to exercise his authority over his children as God commanded
the father has to have custody and have them living in his house (Numbers
30:3); which is later confirmed by God in His Holy Koran; otherwise
it makes a nonsense of God's Command and makes the fulfillment of His
Command impossible.
1 Corinthians - CONFIRMATION that WOMEN's
LIBERATION is PROHIBITED
11:3 But I would have you know, that the head of every man is Christ;
and the head of the woman [is] the
man; and the head of Christ [is] God.
11:7 For a man indeed ought not to cover [his] head, forasmuch as he
is the image and glory of God: but the woman is the glory of the
man.
11:8 For the man is not of the woman; but the woman of the man.
11:9 Neither was the man created for the woman; but the woman for the man.
14:34 Let your women keep
silence in the communities: for it is not
permitted unto them to speak; but [they are commanded] to be under
obedience, as also saith The
Law (of God - Gen. 3:16). (Be seen and not heard and children
also).
14:35 And if they will learn any thing, let them ask their husbands
at home: for it is a disgrace for women to speak in
the community.
Ephesians - confirmation that EQUALITY of sexes
is PROHIBITED
5:22 Wives, submit yourselves unto your own
husbands, as unto the Lord.
5:23 For the husband is the head of the
wife, even as Christ is the head of the
community: and he is the saviour of the body.
5:24 Therefore as the community is subject unto Christ, so [let]
the wives [be] to their own
husbands in EVERY thing.
5:25 Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the
community, and gave himself for it;
5:26 That he might sanctify and cleanse it with the washing of
[Living] water by the Word,
5:27 That he might present it to himself a glorious community, not
having spot, or wrinkle, or any such thing; but that it should be
holy and without blemish.
5:28 So ought men to love their wives as their own bodies. He that
loveth his wife loveth himself.
5:29 For no man ever yet hated his own flesh; but nourisheth and
cherisheth it, even as the Lord the community:
Colossians - EQUALITY of sexes PROHIBITED
3:17 And whatsoever ye do in word or deed, [do] all in the name of
the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father by him.
3:18 Wives, submit yourselves unto your own
husbands, as it is fit in the Lord.
3:19 Husbands, love [your] wives, and be not bitter against them.
3:20 Children, obey [your] parents in all things: for this is well
pleasing unto the Lord.
3:21 Fathers, provoke not your children [to anger], lest
they be discouraged.
Titus - EQUALITY of sexes PROHIBITED
1:15 Unto the pure all things [are] pure: but unto them that are
defiled and unbelieving [is] nothing pure; but even their mind and
conscience is defiled.
1:16 They claim that they know God; but in [their] works they deny
[Him], being abominable, and disobedient, and unto every good
work reprobate.
2:1 But speak thou the things which become sound doctrine:
2:2 That the aged men be sober, grave, temperate, sound in
faith, in charity, in patience.
2:3 The aged women likewise, that [they be] in behaviour as becometh
holy women, not false accusers, not given to much wine, teachers of
good things;
2:4 That they may teach the young women to
be sober, to love their husbands, to love
their [husband's] children,
2:5 [To be] discreet, chaste, keepers at home, good, obedient to their own husbands,
that the word of God be not blasphemed.
2:6 Young men likewise exhort to be sober minded.
2:7 In all things showing thyself a pattern of good works: in
doctrine [showing] uncorruptness, gravity, sincerity,
2:8 Sound speech, that cannot be condemned; that he that is of the
contrary part may be ashamed, having no evil thing to say of
you.
1 Peter - EQUALITY of sexes PROHIBITED
3:1 Likewise, ye wives, [be] in subjection
to your own husbands; that, if any obey
not the Word, they also may without the Word be won by the
conversation of the wives;
3:2 While they behold your chaste conversation [coupled] with
fear.
3:3 Whose adorning let it not be that outward [adorning]
of plaiting the hair, and of wearing of gold, or of putting on of apparel;
3:4 But [let it be] the hidden Man of the heart, in that which is not
corruptible, [even the ornament] of a meek and quiet spirit, which is in the
sight of God of great price.
3:5 For after this manner in the old time the holy women also, who trusted in
God, adorned themselves, being in
subjection unto their own husbands:
3:6 Even as Sara obeyed Abraham, calling him lord: whose daughters ye are, as long
as ye do well, and are not afraid with any amazement.
1 Timothy - EQUALITY of sexes PROHIBITED
2:11 Let the woman learn in
SILENCE with all subjection.
2:12 But I suffer not a woman to teach, nor to USURP authority over the man,
but TO BE IN SILENCE.
2:13 For Adam was first formed, then Eve.
2:14 And Adam was not deceived, but the woman being deceived was in
the transgression.
2:15 Notwithstanding she shall be saved in childbearing, if they
continue in faith and charity and holiness with sobriety.
3:1 Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some
shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and
doctrines of devils;
3:2 Speaking lies in hypocrisy; having their conscience seared with a
hot iron;
3:3 Forbidding to marry, [and commanding] to abstain from meats
(become vegetarian), which God hath created to be received with
thanksgiving of them which believe and know the Truth.
Leviticus - busybodies condemned
19:16 Thou shalt not go up and down [as] a talebearer among thy
people: neither shalt thou stand against the blood of thy neighbour:
I [am] the "I AM".
1 Timothy - busybodies condemned
5:11 But the younger widows refuse: for when they have begun to wax
wanton against
Christ, they will marry;
5:12 Having damnation, because they have cast off their first
faith.
5:13 And withal they learn [to be] idle, wandering about from house
to house; and not only idle, but tattlers also and busybodies,
speaking things which they ought not.
1 Peter - busybodies condemned - and also explaining that evil will be spoken (by those
in authority) about those who support God's Law and not men's
laws.
4:13 But rejoice, inasmuch as ye are sharers of Christ's sufferings;
that, when his glory shall be revealed, ye may be glad also with
exceeding joy.
4:14 If ye be reproached for the name of Christ, happy [are ye]; for
the spirit of glory and of God resteth upon you: on their part he is
evil spoken of, but on your part he is glorified.
4:15 But let none of you suffer as a murderer, or [as] a thief, or
[as] an evildoer, or as a busybody in other men's matters.
4:16 Yet if [any man suffer] as a Christian, let him not be ashamed; but let
him glorify God on this behalf.
4:17 For the time [is come] that Judgment must begin at the House of
God: and if [it] first [begin] at us, what shall the end [be] of them
that obey not the gospel of God?
4:18 And if the righteous scarcely be saved, where shall the unGodly
and the sinner appear?
4:19 Wherefore let them that suffer according to the Will of God
commit the keeping of their souls [to him] in well doing, as unto a
faithful Creator.
Deuteronomy -
Man-made laws are PROHIBITED by God.
Therefore man-made laws giving custody of a man's
children to his wife are
ILLEGAL. As also are laws giving women
equality with men, or a say in their, or public, affairs.
Blackstone;
the authority on English law,
whose teaching is still studied
today; says that
any legislation that contravenes the Law of God is not an enactment
and cannot be enforced.
Deuteronomy
4:1 Now therefore hearken, O Israel, unto the Statutes and unto the
Judgments, which I teach you, for to DO [them], that ye may
LIVE, and go in
and possess the land which the "I AM" God of your fathers giveth
you.
4:2 Ye shall not ADD unto the
word which I command you, neither shall ye diminish [ought] from it, that ye may keep the Commandments of the "I AM" your
God which I COMMAND you.
12:32 What thing soever I command you, observe to do it:
thou
shalt not add thereto, nor diminish from
it.
Matthew - Christ confirms that God's Law is
Eternal
5:16 Let your Light so shine before men, that they may see your good
works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven.
5:17 Think not that I am come to destroy The Law, or the Prophets: I
am not come to destroy, but to fulfill.
5:18 For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass,
one jot or one tittle shall in no way pass
from The Law, till all (the prophecies) be
fulfilled.
5:19 Whosoever therefore shall break one of these least
COMMANDments,
and shall teach men so, he shall be called the least in the Kingdom
of heaven: but whosoever shall do and teach [them], the same shall be
called great in the Kingdom of heaven.
5:20 For I say unto you, That except your righteousness shall
EXCEED [the
righteousness] of the lawyers and politicians (who were also
priests), ye shall in no case enter into the Kingdom of
heaven.
Deuteronomy - Keeping God's Law gives Life
Eternal; any other (man-made) law gives death eternal
30:8 And thou shalt return and obey the voice of the "I AM", and do
all His Commandments which I command thee this day.
30:9 And the "I AM" thy God will make thee plenteous in every work of
thine hand, in the fruit of thy body, and in the fruit of thy cattle,
and in the fruit of thy land, for good: for the "I AM" will again
rejoice over thee for good, as He rejoiced over thy fathers:
30:10 If thou shalt hearken unto the voice of the "I AM" thy God, to
keep His Commandments and His Statutes which are written in this Book
of The Law, [and] if thou turn unto the "I AM" thy God with all thine
heart, and with all thy soul.
30:11 For this Commandment which I command thee this day, it [is] not
hidden from thee, neither [is] it far off.
30:12 It [is] not in heaven, that thou shouldest say, Who shall go up
for us to heaven, and bring it unto us, that we may hear it, and do
it?
30:13 Neither [is] it beyond the sea, that thou shouldest say, Who
shall go over the sea for us, and bring it unto us, that we may hear
it, and do it?
30:14 But the Word [is] very near unto thee, in thy mouth, and in thy
heart, that thou mayest do it.
30:15 See, I have set before
thee this day life and good, and
death and evil;
30:16 In that I command thee this day to love the "I AM" thy God, to
walk in His Ways, and to keep His Commandments and His
Statutes and His Judgments, that thou mayest live and multiply: and
the "I AM" thy God shall bless thee in the land where thou goest to
possess it.
30:17 But if thine heart turn away, so that thou wilt not hear, but
shalt be drawn away, and worship other gods, and serve them;
30:18 I denounce unto you this day, that ye shall surely perish, [and
that] ye shall not prolong [your] days upon the land, where thou
passest over Jordan to go to possess it.
30:19 I call heaven and earth to record this day against you, [that]
I have set before you life and
death, blessing and cursing: therefore
choose life, that both thou and thy seed may live:
30:20 That thou mayest love the "I AM" thy God, [and] that thou
mayest obey His voice, and that thou mayest cleave unto Him: for
He [is] thy Life, and the length of thy days: that thou mayest dwell in the
land which the "I AM" sware unto thy fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac,
and to Jacob, to give them.
31:1 And Moses went and spoke these words unto all Israel (the
Brit-ish).
Matthew - Christ confirms that God's Law is
Eternal
5:16 Let your Light so shine before men, that they may see your good
works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven.
5:17 Think not that I am come to destroy The Law, or the Prophets: I
am not come to destroy, but to fulfill.
5:18 For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass,
one jot or one tittle shall in no way pass
from The Law, till all (the prophecies) be
fulfilled.
5:19 Whosoever therefore shall break one of these least
COMMANDments,
and shall teach men so, he shall be called the least in the Kingdom
of heaven: but whosoever shall do and teach [them], the same shall be
called great in the Kingdom of heaven.
5:20 For I say unto you, That except your righteousness shall
EXCEED [the
righteousness] of the lawyers and politicians (who were also
priests), ye shall in no case enter into the Kingdom of
heaven.
The Koran:-
GOD'S COMMAND ABOUT THE MAN'S AUTOMATIC CUSTODY
OF HIS CHILDREN and their weaning. Women do NOT have rights over
children; they only bear children FOR THEIR HUSBAND.
Sura 2:231. When ye divorce women, and they fulfill the term of their
abstinance from sexual relations ('Iddat), either take them back on
equitable terms or set them free on equitable terms but do not take
them back to injure them, (or) to take undue advantage if any one
does that he wrongs his own soul. Do not treat God's Signs as a jest,
but solemnly rehearse God's favours on you, and the fact that He sent
down to you the Book (Bible) and Wisdom, for your instruction. And
fear God, and know that God is well acquainted with all things.
2:232. When ye divorce women, and they fulfill the term of their
abstinence from sexual relations ('Iddat), do not prevent them from
marrying their (former) husbands, if they mutually agree on equitable
terms. This instruction is for all amongst you, who believe God and
in the Last Day. That is (the course making for) most virtue and
purity amongst you and God knows, and ye know not.
2:233. The mothers shall give suck to their offspring for two whole
years, if the father desires to complete the term. But he shall bear
the cost of their food and clothing on equitable terms. No soul shall
have a burden laid on it greater than it can bear. No mother shall be
treated unfairly on account of her child. Nor father on account of
his child, an heir shall be chargeable in the same way. If they
both
decide on weaning, by mutual consent, and after due consultation,
there is no blame on them. If ye (men) decide on a foster-mother for
your offspring,
there is no blame on you, provided ye pay (the mother) what ye
offered, on equitable terms. But fear God and know that God sees well
what ye do.
