Is it a bad witness for a pastor to have a trophy wife?

[Jethro Bodine]

Isn't your pastor having a trophy wife kind of like your pastor driving a Corvette, or a Lambo?

 

[Edward]

I don't think so. Cars are material objects. people are people, souls.

What is a trophy wife?

 

[Gary]

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. One mans mutt is another mans trophy wife.

As for the Corvettes and Lambos, if they can't carry a full sheet of plywood, I have no use for them......just saying...

 

[Gary]

This was someones trophy wife.

As was this.

1 Samuel 16
7 But the Lord said unto Samuel, Look not on his countenance, or on the height of his stature; because I have refused him: for the Lord seeth not as man seeth; for man looketh on the outward appearance, but the Lord looketh on the heart.

That would be between him and God.God does not look at the outside He looks at the heart.....soooo.

What is a trophy wife?

It is a woman who is beautiful on the outside,great figure, great everything.So that when people see them together they would think "He must be something look what kind of women like this guy".Of course God does not look at things in that way.It is worldly.

There's considerations here brother. Is this his first wife? Did he leave his first wife who may have been aging and then turned around and married this trophy wife? If his first wife is a trophy wife, MYOB. If he left his wife for another younger skinnier girl, that would look bad on him. And perhaps be sinful.

I'm very much attracted to the Cinderella look. Most of the modern models who are anorexic and covered in war paint look ridiculous to me. In my mind, the more they overdo the makeup and so-called fashion is pretty indicative of their desperation to find a man, for keeps or for nefarious reasons.

What kind of heart do they have? Are they beautiful on the inside? This means more than outward beauty. Of course it's nice if their pretty though.

IMV, outward beauty is best judged first thing in the morning, when they first roll out of bed. Do the "need" their makeup to be presentable? Or do they look good right then. My ex wife only used makeup on rare rare occasions. I think this helped her. When she first woke up and had rested well, she looked fantastic. Very radiant and desirable. Mussy hair and radiance, wow.

Those girls who don't look good unless they have on makeup? Whoa. I best be polite and refrain from saying more.

Before I took myself off the market, it was the Plain Janes that did it for me.

ya pervert.

 

[Gary]

Not anymore.

so that was before the cross?

My idea of a trophy wife is a plain Jane type, not anorexic, but healthy. Not obese, healthy. And one with a good heart towards people and God. One that cares about family and home. And can cook. My first wife could cook up a meal from the gravel in the alley, wow. We used to invite my older brother and his wife over to dinner, and older brother would get angry. (at his wife). He made prolly 5 times as much money as I did then, and he'd say, I make so much more money than Ed does...why can't we eat like this? And they would begin arguing. All because my wife could cook, and his wife couldn't. And big brother had a blond haired anorexic girl that a lot of people found very desirable. But who had the trophy wife? Ha!

My wife was just doing what she does, and it would make his wife look pretty bad by comparison.

I made the vow when I was young (and stuck to it) that each time that i broke up with a GF, that the next one, would be better. It always worked for me. I had a fantastic wife for 26 years. Too bad she got materialistic on me.

What is a trophy wife?

She is outwardly a highly desirable woman who is like a trophy of achievement to the one who possesses her.

 

[AirDancer]

If the main reason for gaining a wife is to have a 'trophy' ...then that is bad, very bad witness.

What is the Cinderella look?Ya...wake up in the morning and her hair is all over her head (bed head),morning breath and maybe she has passed some gas during the night.Is that the Cinderella type?
I once worked with this woman.She did not wear a bit of makeup,she dressed very,very modest and she was the plainest woman I have ever met.But our follow male employees always had their tongues handing out when they were around her.She was just naturally gorgeous.She did not notice at all and she could care less.And no she was not gay.

How do you spell....shallow...or insecure?

 

[AirDancer]

......and egotistical ?

 

[Jethro Bodine]

...or, just like the Corvette, simply what a man wants to have.
