If it's not my spouse

IF IT AIN'T MY SPOUSE

First, he has to show proof of ownership, the Bible, our marriage certificate, then the ring because

the ring may just be a camouflage, and can be attributed to a piece of artefact fastened to the third finger.

So, the Bible and our marriage certificate are the first viable excuse, and also serving as a proof of our holy solemnization

It is common knowledge that in the circular world of today, many are plagued with the pressure of pre-marital affiliations especially in regards to having sexual relationships, as a means of gratification for either happiness, or as a proof of premature maturity.

Well... if what most people posit is still not being justified by the Bible, then it means that what most people believe as being standard and true is the equivalent of a falacious belief.

A fact is not the same thing as the truth, like a popular advertisement says 'If e no be panadol, e no fit be like panadol'.

Most times it baffles me that the only thing most people worry about, or concern themselves with is that fact that another life can be created from their escapades rather than worry about the many bacteria, fungi or even viral infections that can come out of this most times pressurized-pleasure.

Being put in the family way to me is the least important of all the worries that a person should engage in, in regards to being involved with someone sexually. If you didn't want the responsibility, of being accountable for another being's existence, then getting involved remains the silliest maneuver of the century. In the absent of having no one to blame, we start to affix blames on both the intangible, tangible, abstract and non-abstract.

This admonition goes to both the ladies and gents, because most times people have the misconception that only the ladies should stay pure and chaste. There is no chapter, verse or any mention in the Bible where it is stated that only the ladies should not be engaged in sex prematurely.

As the Bible posits, and in reference to it I beg to disagree that only the ladies are convicted to staying chaste.

In conclusion, the Bible has laid down the ground rules for us else this will just be meaningless banter, and mere gibberish. The modern world has tried to pour asphalt on all our original values where people appreciated themselves, and had value not just for their fellow beings but also for their bodies; in those days, a lot of people refused to sell their body for mere pittance, but in the new age more is becoming less, and less is becoming more.

I pray that we would all be able to find our way back to our roots instead of letting the stem, the branches and leaves to beguile us into thinking that, that is all there is to be offered and the solid foundation never existed in the first place.

So, if there is no legal tender, or spiritual justification, I think it will be best to shout 'NO DEAL!!!'
