    I was looking at the link Nelly has posted for the Bethel tours and went to the comment sections. They had posted a comment from a "spiritual widow" and I had to wonder what the heck they meant by that??? What do they consider her hubby already dead???

    I don't know maybe I am taking it wrong..lol it has happened before..

    hi xena
    i think she is saying that her husband is not a witness or at least not a strong witness. (my wife mumbles this about me all the time :) he he .)

    The people that fall into this catagory are ones that have been cut off. There is no longer an invisible connection between husband & wife, and they share a house like room mates.
    They are no longer one.
    Not very nice

    poor woman,
    she doesnt have the God ordained benefit of a man above her so that spirit can flow to her thru the proper channel.
    I would imagine her husband might be oppossed, he thus being as one already dead. ( havent read the link)

    .....further. Thinking back to those "spiritual widows" in the local congregation, there always (to me) seemed to be an implication, an unspoken understanding that those husbands of the widows were remiss, failing to fullfill their duty to provide (as a good hunter gatherer)not literal feeding, but spiritual feeding.
    A label no christian man could desire.

    I thought a Spiritual Window was sort of like one way glass, they can see you from heaven, but, you can't see them in heaven. Am I wrong?

    The widow is probably NOT the closest to finding the reality of Freedom In Christ.
