Buy And Marry: Dangerous Offers. by Nobody: 11:49am On Jul 21, 2015
Luke 4:1-13

An advert for a house in Indonesia went viral online when the woman who offered the house for sale added an extra unusual feature. In addition to the house, she offered her hand in marriage free of charge to whoever would buy the house. The internet advert read for the most part like a regular house listing saying that the single storey-property had 2-bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, a parking space and a fish pond. But it also proposed to buyers a "free offer" which was, "when you buy this house, you can ask the owner to marry you." Alongside the advert was the picture of the owner, a 40-year old widow and beauty salon owner, Wina Lia, leaning against a car in front of the house. The advert said terms and conditions applied, and noted that the offer was "for serious buyers and non-negotiable." The house in Sleman, on the island of JAVA, was put uo for a market value of 999 million rupa (about $75,000). The lady in today's story may not really have meant any harm. She may have genuinely wanted to re-marry and settle down again to a family life. The challenge here was that the terms of sale were suspect because whoever would buy the house must marry the woman, and the condition was non-negotiable. Commentators felt that the woman was not actually selling the house. Since the woman would become the legal wife of the buyer, the house would automatically revert back to her as the owner. This was considered the dangerous part of the offer. Satan offerd Jesus all the kingdoms of the world if he (Jesus) would worship him. Our Lord was quick to refuse the offer; instead he asked Satan to get behind him. You must discern dangerous offers and quickly reject them. If someone asks you to come to bed before he/she can offer you employment or a favour you are seeking, that is a dangerous offer. If a man wants to sleep with you before marriage or says you cannot have his hand in marriage until you become pregnant, that is a dangerous offer; if someone offers to take you where you can make money through rituals, that is another very dangerous offer. The list of dangerous offers is endless. Anything that will make you sell your birthright is a dangerous offer. Learn from ESAU who sold his birth right and wept bitterly without result. Run away the way Joseph ran from Potiphar's wife before it is too late. His grace is sufficient for you.
