Jesus Christ did not come to condemn us, but He did come to admonish us stop listening to the foolishness of the devil and disobeying the instructions of God.
Jesus Christ has paid our penalty, so we don’t have to continue to find someone to blame for our circumstances and we don’t have to continue to justify that which we do by making it someone else’s fault.
God does not command us to feel an emotion. God commands us to act; to give ourselves to one another sacrificially, even as He gave His Son to us sacrificially. The emotion that we colloquially call love is our reward for giving ourselves.

A woman appealing to a man is the design of male/female relationships. Didn’t you have to appeal to your husband to get him interested in you in the first place? Then, when you became girlfriend and boyfriend, didn’t you have to be appealing to him to convince him to give you that ring?
The Bible teaches that that there are two aspects to faithfulness. One can be unfaithful to a spouse by having sex with someone other than the spouse, or one can be unfaithful to a spouse by depriving them without consent for a time.
The Church was born out of death. Jesus Christ died on the Cross. If we learn nothing else from our belief in Jesus Christ, we should learn that we are going to live forever.

God has ordained that a person’s primary relationship is supposed to be between themselves and their own spouse, not with a mother or with a child. A child is supposed to bond to their own spouse and create their own family, hopefully, without interference from their mother.
If we believe in Jesus Christ, meaning, if we believe that Jesus Christ actually existed, that Jesus Christ is a Wonderful Counselor and that we should do as Jesus Christ instructs us, that Jesus Christ was sent by God, and that Jesus Christ is actually God in the flesh, our primary act of belief in Him is fulfilling His commandment to love one another.
