The
critics need to do better than that, or they need to just give up and go away.
I don't know what else to say about it. It seems the reality is that he loves
his wife and values his marriage. Is that wrong, just because so many in our
culture have ignored and/or rejected such values? His standard in this matter
is wise and Biblical. Criticism of such a standard reveals the heart of the
critic.

not let your good be spoken of as evil..." (Romans 14:16, NKJV).
"...having a good conscience, that when they defame you as evildoers, those who revile your good conduct in Christ may be ashamed" (I Peter 3:16, NKJV).
"For this is the will of God, that by doing good you may put to silence the ignorance of foolish men..." (1 Peter 2:15, NKJV).
"...in all things showing yourself to be a pattern of good works; in doctrine showing integrity, reverence, incorruptibility, sound speech that cannot be condemned, that one who is an opponent may be ashamed, having nothing evil to say of you" (Titus 2:7-8, NKJV).

I welcome your comments. However, since this is a blog rather than an open forum, I will determine what is and what is not posted. All comments, especially anonymous comments, will be scrutinized carefully. I will not post comments that contain profanity or are negative toward the Scriptures, God, Christianity in general, Christian schools, or the United States of America. I also will not post comments that are nothing more than generally uninformed or absurd opinions. In addition, I will not post comments that are totally irrelevant to the subject being discussed. Finally, I will not post comments that are commercial advertisements or advertisements for religious organizations which are in conflict with my biblical convictions.
