Those of us that will have the opportunity to judge angels are not going to do so willy-nilly; our judgment will not be based upon our subjective conclusions, but rather, on how well we have mastered the objective concepts given in the Word of God.

Ruth chose God, and God used the natural attributes that He gave Ruth to provide for Ruth and Naomi, through the protective generosity of Boaz. Although neither Ruth nor Naomi had a husband, God was still looking after them through Boaz, their kinsman-redeemer.

God did not create the man as an infant, but as one that had the maturity to consider the needs of another over his own. The sequence of operations that prepares us for marriage is to first reach chronological maturity, and then intellectual maturity, and then emotional maturity, at which point, a person is able to co-exist with another person while having the best interests of the other person at heart.

The marital relationship is not intended by God to be a relationship that is initiated because of emotion. When making a marriage decision, an objective evaluation of Biblical criteria is more important than an emotional attachment.
A man is putty in the hands of a woman if she influences him with the power of love. God has given women that which they need to help and to influence a man to become that which he should, and ultimately, to form a loving and bonded relationship with her.
It is inappropriate to allow feelings, however romantic they may be, to motivate us to deviate from that which we know is the objective design of God for the interaction of the genders.

A calm, sweet, grateful, loving person is extremely attractive. But in our society, our marriages often fall apart because that sweet person that we married decides, once the ceremony is over, that they are no longer going to be our lover, but rather our drill sergeant.
