We will bear all the expenses of the wedding. You don't touch your wallet or something like that. You mean to say this fellowship is producing such characterless women? You don't have the sense in your head to say, if this fellow is not prepared to spend some money for his own wedding, how is he going to bring up a family? Is he going to spend any money for his wife and children? Or is he going to spend it on other women? My dear people, I am not prepared to entertain any such people in our retreat. Those who run to the jewellers, saying it is Christmas, those who don't pay their debts, pack up and leave. You are not going to do anything for God or his kingdom. You have a great God and you are that God. You are a worshipper of Satan and of self. Listen friends, when you study the word of God, you get standards. Christ like nature, you become a partaker of the divine nature. Such gutter nature, and out in the world you are a lecturer, professor, some man with a couple of degrees. You are being that. Oh my dear people, deceit, hypocrisy, avarice, greed, lust, impurity, does not belong to the Christian heart. You are deceiving yourself. It is not going to save you or your family. You are going to be plagued. Listen, if you warn anybody, what do people say? Oh he is cursing us, she is cursing. Listen, let us turn to Malachi 2. Malachi, the last book of the Old Testament. God is speaking to the priests here. And now, O ye priests, this commandment is to you. Preachers, evangelists and all leaders, this commandment is to you. If you will not hear, if you will not lay this to heart, you will give glory unto my name. I will even send a curse upon you, and I will curse your blessings. Yea, I have cursed them already, because you lay it not to heart. Yea, you think I am going to give you blessing? I am the author of blessing? No, you are lying. What does God say? If I do not obey his word, if I am not of a broken spirit, he will curse your blessings. His righteousness demands this. Today, there is no righteousness in people's thinking. They do not say, I deserve this. I have always learnt to relate certain sins of omission of mine to the happenings around me. I say, why did this young man die so soon? I have been a blind leader. How is it that I never knew that this man had this kind of son? And he had this kind of education.
