Has anybody ever heard of wanting to please God?
Not every issue in my marriage is a "divorce or stay married" issue.
But I like pleasing my wife, and being happily married.
I could track mud all over the living room floor, and probably not get immediately served with divorce papers.
But if I have an attitude of just doing whatever I want without regard to her preferences and wishes, the relationship is surely going to dteriorate.

If I might be allowed the luxury of cheerleading right here, I would like to offer Bro. CS a hearty Oklahoma AMEN!
it is this attitude of heaven or hell that results in the minimalist living and teaching that has become so common in Pentecostal/Apostolic circles. What can I get away with that isn't heaven or hell? How close to hell can I live and still make it into heaven? Sad way to live!
