SPOUSAL ABUSE — a poem and song by BBB

SPOUSAL ABUSE

by Bill Kochman

https://www.billkochman.com/Poetry

12-08-2016

There really is just no excuse,
For engaging in spousal abuse.
If your temper begins to flare,
Act quickly; just go somewhere.

Don’t dare beat up on your wife,
You will pay the rest of your life.
And miss, leave your hubby alone,
Settle down; don’t pick a bone.

In the end, no one really wins,
That will be when divorce begins.
Better to love with all your heart,
Make peace; no fight should start.

Posted on March 16, 2026 by Bill Kochman

#Scriptures #BibleStudy #BibleVerses #WithoutSpotAndblameless #WithoutSpot #Blameless #WithoutRebuke #Unrebukeable

“I thank my God always on your behalf, for the grace of God which is given you by Jesus Christ; That in every thing ye are enriched by him, in all utterance, and in all knowledge; Even as the testimony of Christ was confirmed in you: So that ye come behind in no gift; waiting for the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ: Who shall also confirm you unto the end, that ye may be blameless in the day of our Lord Jesus Christ.”
1 Corinthians 1:4-8, KJV

“Wherefore, my beloved, as ye have always obeyed, not as in my presence only, but now much more in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling. For it is God which worketh in you both to will and to do of his good pleasure. Do all things without murmurings and disputings: That ye may be blameless and harmless, the sons of God, without rebuke, in the midst of a crooked and perverse nation, among whom ye shine as lights in the world; Holding forth the word of life; that I may rejoice in the day of Christ, that I have not run in vain, neither laboured in vain.”
Philippians 2:12-16, KJV

“And the very God of peace sanctify you wholly; and I pray God your whole spirit and soul and body be preserved blameless unto the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.”
1 Thessalonians 5:23, KJV

“I give thee charge in the sight of God, who quickeneth all things, and before Christ Jesus, who before Pontius Pilate witnessed a good confession; That thou keep this commandment without spot, unrebukeable, until the appearing of our Lord Jesus Christ:”
1 Timothy 6:13-14, KJV

“Nevertheless we, according to his promise, look for new heavens and a new earth, wherein dwelleth righteousness. Wherefore, beloved, seeing that ye look for such things, be diligent that ye may be found of him in peace, without spot, and blameless.”
2 Peter 3:13-14, KJV
