a marriage.

d. Destroys relationships with family members.
There have been incidents, where a spouse found out about an affair between their spouse and another individual - either killed the two individuals or one of them.
Often times, it breakup families –the ones who suffer the most are the children. They have to learn to live without both parents in the same home, watching them grow, and doing things with them, the way marriage was designed by God, to be.
Teachers are able to see the negative affect of an extra-marital affair on a student. It interferes with academic performance in school. It is never just between the husband and wife. It is between the husband, wife and children.
God’s Example for Parents:
For I know him, that he will command his children and his household after him, and they shall keep the way of the Lord, to do justice and judgment; that the Lord may bring upon Abraham that which he hath spoken of him. Genesis 18: 19 (K.J.V)
God’s Promise to Men & Women:
Let your conversation be without covetousness; and be content with such things as ye have: for he hath said, I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee. So that ye may boldly say, The Lord is my helper and I will not fear what man shall do unto me.
Hebrews 13:5, 6 (K.J.V)
Note: More than likely, every marriage will face the temptation, to submit to an extra-marital affair. None of us are immune to temptations. However, there is a stiff penalty to pay. God will not accept the notion, this is something that we can't control.
