결혼 이혼관련 그리고 바울의 재림임박의식(再臨臨迫意識)
2024.11.5
(고전7:1-40)
1 Now for the matters you wrote about: It is good for a man not to marry. 2 But since there is so much immorality, each man should have his own wife, and each woman her own husband. 3 The husband should fulfill his marital duty to his wife, and likewise the wife to her husband. 4 The wife's body does not belong to her alone but also to her husband. In the same way, the husband's body does not belong to him alone but also to his wife. 5 Do not deprive each other except by mutual consent and for a time, so that you may devote yourselves to prayer. Then come together again so that Satan will not tempt you because of your lack of self-control. 6 I say this as a concession, not as a command. 7 I wish that all men were as I am. But each man has his own gift from God; one has this gift, another has that. 8 Now to the unmarried and the widows I say: It is good for them to stay unmarried, as I am. 9 But if they cannot control themselves, they should marry, for it is better to marry than to burn with passion. 10 To the married I give this command (not I, but the Lord): A wife must not separate from her husband. 11 But if she does, she must remain unmarried or else be reconciled to her husband. And a husband must not divorce his wife. 12 To the rest I say this (I, not the Lord): If any brother has a wife who is not a believer and she is willing to live with him, he must not divorce her. 13 And if a woman has a husband who is not a believer and he is willing to live with her, she must not divorce him. 14 For the unbelieving husband has been sanctified through his wife, and the unbelieving wife has been sanctified through her believing husband. Otherwise your children would be unclean, but as it is, they are holy. 15 But if the unbeliever leaves, let him do so. A believing man or woman is not bound in such circumstances; God has called us to live in peace. 16 How do you know, wife, whether you will save your husband? Or, how do you know, husband, whether you will save your wife? 17 Nevertheless, each one should retain the place in life that the Lord assigned to him and to which God has called him. This is the rule I lay down in all the churches. 18 Was a man already circumcised when he was called? He should not become uncircumcised. Was a man uncircumcised when he was called? He should not be circumcised. 19 Circumcision is nothing and uncircumcision is nothing. Keeping God's commands is what counts. 20 Each one should remain in the situation which he was in when God called him. 21 Were you a slave when you were called? Don't let it trouble you--although if you can gain your freedom, do so. 22 For he who was a slave when he was called by the Lord is the Lord's freedman; similarly, he who was a free man when he was called is Christ's slave. 23 You were bought at a price; do not become slaves of men. 24 Brothers, each man, as responsible to God, should remain in the situation God called him to. 25 Now about virgins: I have no command from the Lord, but I give a judgment as one who by the Lord's mercy is trustworthy. 26 Because of the present crisis, I think that it is good for you to remain as you are. 27 Are you married? Do not seek a divorce. Are you unmarried? Do not look for a wife. 28 But if you do marry, you have not sinned; and if a virgin marries, she has not sinned. But those who marry will face many troubles in this life, and I want to spare you this. 29 What I mean, brothers, is that the time is short. From now on those who have wives should live as if they had none; 30 those who mourn, as if they did not; those who are happy, as if they were not; those who buy something, as if it were not theirs to keep; 31 those who use the things of the world, as if not engrossed in them. For this world in its present form is passing away. 32 I would like you to be free from concern. An unmarried man is concerned about the Lord's affairs--how he can please the Lord. 33 But a married man is concerned about the affairs of this world--how he can please his wife-- 34 and his interests are divided. An unmarried woman or virgin is concerned about the Lord's affairs: Her aim is to be devoted to the Lord in both body and spirit. But a married woman is concerned about the affairs of this world--how she can please her husband. 35 I am saying this for your own good, not to restrict you, but that you may live in a right way in undivided devotion to the Lord. 36 If anyone thinks he is acting improperly toward the virgin he is engaged to, and if she is getting along in years and he feels he ought to marry, he should do as he wants. He is not sinning. They should get married. 37 But the man who has settled the matter in his own mind, who is under no compulsion but has control over his own will, and who has made up his mind not to marry the virgin--this man also does the right thing. 38 So then, he who marries the virgin does right, but he who does not marry her does even better. 39 A woman is bound to her husband as long as he lives. But if her husband dies, she is free to marry anyone she wishes, but he must belong to the Lord. 40 In my judgment, she is happier if she stays as she is--and I think that I too have the Spirit of God.
독신(獨身)
바울은 오늘 혼자 사는 것이 좋다한다
결혼은 만일 음욕(淫慾)을 참지 못해 범죄(犯罪)에 이를 정도(程度)라면 몰라도
자신(自身)과 같이 혼자 사는 것이 훨씬 좋다는 강조를 한다
오늘의 본문은
바울의 착각을 다루고 있다
그는 예수님께서 금방 자신의 사는 생애 기간안에 올 것이고
신불신죄부죄(信不信罪不罪)를 물어 천국지옥행(天國地獄行)을 결정(決定)하실 것이라고 굳게 믿었었음을 본다
그도 역시
결혼(結婚)이란 하나님의 원(願)하심 뜻임음 모를리 없을터
그런데 왜? 라는 질문을 던지면
바로 그의 임박재림의식(臨迫再臨意識)이 원인(原因)이라는 답(答)을 그리 어렵지 않게 얻을 수 있게 되는 것
그런데 ... 하나님의 성령께서는
왜 오늘의 이 글을 성경에 등재 시켜놓은 것일까?
그것은 바로 바울이 하나님처럼 존경받아 마땅한 존재가 아니라
그 역시 한 인간에 지나지 않음을 알게 하시려고... 바울과 바울을 아는 모든 사람들에게 성인숭배사상신앙(聖人崇拜思想信仰)에 빠지는 것을 예방(禮防)하시려는 포석차원(砲石次元)이라 사료(思料)된다
만일 오늘의 말씀
바울의 언급을
실제적인 임박한 재림상황이 된다면
모두 다 맞는 말씀이다
하지만 시기가 그렇지 않다면
정상적인 결혼
그것이
맞다
하지만 언제 주님이 재림하실지 모르는 오늘날
세계정황은 종말지말(終末之末)인 것 같은데...
벧후3:8 하루가 천년 천년이 하루같다는 말씀을 생각하고 보면
내 생애기간동안 일 수도 있고 아닐 수도 있고...
하여 생각해 낸 것은
하나님 창조의 원리를 따라
정상적인 결혼
나는 그렇게 하는 것이 옳다는 믿음을 피력하고 싶다
결혼은 기독인끼리 하는 것이 좋지만
나중 믿게 되어 둘 중 하나만 예수님을 신앙할 경우
믿음 없는 사람이 이혼을 요청할때는 승낙하라는 바울의 가르침
가장 중요한 것은 세속관점윤리관(世俗觀點倫理觀)이 아니라 하나님과의 관계가 비교불허(比較不許)임을 취(取)한다는 점은 나의 생각과 동일하다 하겠다
하나님은 일부일처(一夫一妻)를 시작하게 하셨지만
훗날 일부다처제도(一夫多妻制度)에 대해서도 별다른 시시비비(是是非非)를 언급하지 않는 것을 보면
어쩌면 그 자체로 말미암아 땅에 사는 동안 그 댓가를 치루기 까닭인지는 몰라도
내버려 두심을 보면서 논의(論議)의 중요성(重要性)은 그리 크게 높지 않은 것으로 여겨진다
만일 결혼생활문제(結婚生活問題)가 하나님과의 관계에 크게 저촉(抵觸)되지 않는다면
땅에서의 윤리문제(倫理問題)일 따름이지
그것으로 말미암아 지옥(地獄) 혹은 형벌(刑罰)과 구지 연결시키지 않으시는 하나님을 본다
하여 바울도 25절 “... I have no command from the Lord, but I give a judgment as one who by the Lord's mercy is trustworthy”라는 표현을 쓴 것 같다
세월이 지날수록
상처(傷處)로 인한 이혼재혼다반사시대(離婚再婚茶飯事時代)
기독교는 지금 현재 그리고 미래를 중요시 하는 만큼
과거를 들춰내어 현재와 미래를 망치는 일은 없어야 한다는 생각
그리고 중요한 것은 믿음
하나님 섬김
그러면서 행복해지는 것
남은 인생 의미-가치-보람있게 세월을 채워나가는 것...!!!
