  1. My X did the same thing. We almost divorced when my 2nd child was a baby. I thought he had changed and learned his lesson. Umm nope..his attitude was the same as your husbands. I found out years later and 3 kids later that he was doing the same thing. I also found a hotel receipt. He excused it as she didn't show, I was extreamly guilty..blah..blah..blah. After that I filed for divorce he was not going to change and I couldn't help him by loving him.

    It was a hard thing to do. My 4 yr old was not 2 even and she to this day askes me to tell her the story of why her dad and I got divorced. Course I won't tell her. It has been tuff on my kids.

    I have since remarried to a wonderful man, I never dreamed being married could be like this.

    Would I do it again. No..If I had to do it again I would of never married him

    I love my DH so much. I never thought it was possible to be so happy.

    Your DH needs help. Have you talked with your Bishop?

  2. What Good or bad things you do- have zero bearing on the status of your salvation. At least no as far as tallying up good and bad and seeing which you have more of. Actions mean nothing. You dont get points for doing good, you dont get negative points for doing bad. Works are merely the outward manifestation of what is inside us. So you cant dismiss 1 bad deed because someone had 10 good deeds.

    If I do a million good things- and only 1 bad thing, but I refuse to repent for that bad thing- my salvation is forfeit. Likewise If i do 10 good things and 6 bad things- but am repenting an actively trying to improve myself and create change in my life- then The Grace of God covers those sin.

    Punishment is ONLY for people who refuse to turn away from what they are doing wrong. If someone repents- there is no punishment, regardless of the sin. If someone is repentant, then it is the Churches job to provide what assistance it can to the individual to help them keep from making those same errors.

    I disagree with you because in the scriptures we are taught if we bring one soul to the Gospel it will Hide multiple sins. Right now I don't have the time to reference my response but I will if I need to later. Have you read "The Miracle of Forgiveness" If not you should because it is a wonderful book.

  3. wow..all I ment to say is it is all done with love and compation. The Bishops role is to bring back into the fold. I am sorry I started a whole debate and uproar. That was not my intention. All I wanted to so was suport the OP.

  4. Before my DH and I got married we talked alot about how we are going to raise the kids. This is both 2nd marriage and between us we have 12 kids. 5 are mine and 6 are his. We are custodial to 10. We treat each other kids like our own. No different.

    You need to sit down and talk about the money. Sounds like he is being controlling. What is he worried about. Does he have past issues with the X? What about combining incomes so it doesn't matter who's paycheck the money comes from.
