What do you call a man who marries for money. Solomon married at least some of his pagen wives because they brought the Power of their Family with them. He married women who's fathers were powerful men. So his desire for chariots and horses drew him in to disobeying God.

There's an old Pentecostal song that goes....
"Some trust in chariots and some in horses,
But we will remember the name of our Lord, our God."

which scripture did this come from.

Solomon went against Deuteronomy 17:15-17 "Thou shalt in any wise set him king over thee, whom the Lord thy God shall choose: one from among thy brethren shalt thou set king over thee: thou mayest not set a stranger over thee, which is not thy brother.16 But he shall not multiply horses to himself, nor cause the people to return to Egypt, to the end that he should multiply horses: forasmuch as the Lord hath said unto you, Ye shall henceforth return no more that way.
17 Neither shall he multiply wives to himself, that his heart turn not away: neither shall he greatly multiply to himself silver and gold."
 
BidSodaExposer, it sounds to me like you have an ax to grind with women. Did one or more women take advantage of you? I'd like to hear your story, I'm sure there are lessons to learn.
Lol does it sound like that? I don't think I have had any more trouble than any other man. But maybe I just seem more aware of it all. And I tell it from a male perspective. I have seen them use and abuse men. But the men are not innocent. They are walking after the flesh. And that is in lust. The women who are also walking by lust take advantage of the lustful men. I will say this...I don't fall for the female charm the same as other men. And I was once accused of being gay by a harlot that was hanging around a few of us guys, because I didn't basically hump her leg like a male dog. When this happens it greatly confuses women, knowing that their charm and beauty have no power over someone. Yet I tell you I'm not gay, and I do fall victim to lust. I have fornicated just like other men. I didn't think too much about that before God revealed the truth to me.

I screwed up my own marriage. I didn't give my wife all the time and attention she should have gotten. Many things in my life I offered more attention to. I thought it meant alot more than it actually did. I will shoulder the blame on that and admit I was a terrible husband. I looked at porn often. I may have inadvertently caused my wife to fornicate 3 times with other men which led to me getting a divorce from her. Other than 1 failed marriage, theres not alot to talk about really. Just stray fornications through the years.

Many of them I did want love, not just sex. I didn't marry every girl I had sex with. But over 90 percent of them I was courting them, meeting and being with their family. For at least a period of weeks or months. Only a handful of times in my life did I have a raw fornication, one night stand. And though most women won't believe this, I've never cheated on a single girlfriend, or my wife. Nor have I "took" a female from a man that was currently "dating" someone.

To most women that is cheating
 
Thanks for that frank explanation Big Soda Guy. Many times our world view is based on our own experiences. I'm glad Reba said that to view porn, when married, is cheating. That is true, and I wish every married man would know this. A woman wants her man to be above reproach when it comes to their relationship in marriage or just dating or courtship. A woman needs to know that her man is "her man" and no one else's, even a picture of another woman. Integrity must be the hallmark of every husband or boyfriend. A woman needs to feel secure above anything else! Secure in her relationship with her mate, secure in the fact that her mate will always meet all her needs, and secure for the future in all area's. If a man truly loves his woman, he will have that integrity.
 
We all have our thoughts ...
Jesus said :
Mat 5:28 But I say unto you, That whosoever looketh on a woman to lust after her hath committed adultery with her already in his heart.
 
Seriously? Sorry but some women need to work on overcoming their insecurities.
so when the man, ignores the woman for the image. she, the real woman should get over it? that is what happens often. my wife hates porn. she has had men tell her lets watch porn and you do that. being that I have been addicted and struggle with that problem. I wouldn't humiliate my wife with that stuff. if jaci Is told, asked or egged on to do that when she is a teen, and I found out, hell will be having a few souls. of course monica and my wife will have first licks. my wife wont leave much to be recognizable.
 
It is not money that a woman lusts for, and lust is a poor word to use.
Women desire security in a man.
Many women see that security as money.
What they really desire is a man of God, one who is spiritual and puts God first.
He builds his relationship and his family around God.
He goes to God with his problems.
He follows the Word of God and treats his wife with love.
30-70 years later, they are still married and happier than ever before.
Many women don't realize that this is what they really want.
Many men don't realize that they need to be this way.
Yes,there are many gold diggers.After what they can get for selfish reasons.

A gigolo.
 
Reba is correct, porn is a seed in the mind via the eye, called a propensity --how that propensity grow depends upon your mind habits---

James says it better with propensities...

Jas 1:14 But every man is tempted, when he is drawn away of his own lust, and enticed.
15 Then when lust hath conceived, it bringeth forth sin: and sin, when it is finished, bringeth forth death.


Shalom
