He's right. He never once syas it is ok that the guy cheated or that she should pretend he didn't. He focusses on things that will restore the marriage rather then dwell on things that destroy. Good word by Pat. Not easy....but good regardless.

I think it places a little too much responsibility for the husband's actions on the woman (no amount of a happy home will keep a cheater on the straight and narrow). But the idea of refocusing your thoughts to get past a hurt is good advice.

If a husband cheats and you are tired of fiddling with it, throw him out. There ya go.

What I hear is "it's the woman's fault." He okay'd it when he said "he's a man." He is telling the woman to fall in love with her husband again. I doubt that is the issue. Not talking about it isn't going to help. That is going to cause it to eat her up inside.

You're right. He should have said stone him, throw him out, leave your children in a broken home and maintain bitterness and anger in your heart towards him and all men for the rest of your life.

That is so much better than basically saying forgive, get over it, move on and fall in love with him again.

I wonder why divorce is so normal within the church...and then I see the way people act towards a person failing and it becomes clear.

I agree Nighthawk. Pat could have clarified the same is true in forgiving a woman - husband forgiving his wife.

If the husband cheats, the home is already broken. But hey, boys will be boys.

If you watch the video, it states that they have already gone to counselling, which I am POSITIVE invovled the man asking forgiveness and admitting wrong, but this woman just won't let it go and let him move past it. If she won't stop holding it over him...there will never be a restoration. Pat is therefore right. She needs to get over it. If this guy really repented and asked forgiveness and went to counselling, assuming he isn't still being adulterous, then it is on her now. She can't hold his sin over him and ever expect it to work. NOt to mention, sorry if this ticks off the feminists, if she won't let it go and stop holding it over him...the guy will only put up with that for so long before he decides to find love elsewhere.

The same is true if the roles were reversed as well.

I have to wonder if this is part confession on Pat Robertson's part. I have issues with what he says about men. He acts as if men cannot control themselves and then turns around and talks about a prostitute in a hotel room. Why'd he pick that of all things? LOL I doubt most men who cheat do it with a prostitute.
