Genesis 38-39
Vs 7 Judah's son Er, was wicked in the Lords sight; so the Lord put him to death!!! The Bible doesn't say what Er did that was evil. Then Onan, Judah's second son, was wicked in the Lord's sight, so he put him to death also. (vs 9).
Judah withheld his 3rd son from Tamar so she wasn't able to have children. She decided to pretend to be a prostitute, Judah gave in to Tamar who was pretending to be a prostitute and she got pregnant.
Vs 2 The Lord was with Joseph and he prospered.
Vs 6 The master didn't worry about anything other than what he ate because Joseph took care of everything!
Joseph was right in vs 9 when he said he couldn't do such a wicked thing and sin against God by taking his masters wife. The wife lied to Joseph's master and Joseph was put in prison. But verse 21 said the Lord was with him, he showed him kindness and granted him favor. God had a plan for Joseph despite his horrible circumstance.
Matthew 19-
This chapter has a lot to say about marriage and divorce. Vs 9 says if anyone divorces his wife, except for marital unfaithfulness, and marries another woman commits adultery. We're to remember how it was in the beginning. 2 became 1 flesh and what God has joined together, let man not separate.
Vs 17 we learn that NO ONE IS GOOD except God! "I'm a good person", surely I'll go to heaven. That's not the case, there's none righteous!
Vs 26 With man this is impossible (being saved), but with God all things are possible. We're saved by God! It's not anything that we do that gets us into heaven!
