After all, if you're a church leader and you're above reproach it just means that the reproach is going back and forth beneath your feet and it isn't touching you. Let it fall on other people. I'm sure that's what Timothy meant.
If we go to the Greek, "yoked" means "to be attached to a plough" and "unequally" presumably means one of you is higher than the other - I believe there's still dispute on this point. Anyway, as long as you are not proposing to be attached to a plough with an unbeliever, clearly that verse does not apply so you can still do sexes with them*
*Actual justification by this random girl who was engaged in what she called "missionary dating", whereby she would date all these non-Christian guys** as means of evangelising them
**The sex wasn't part of the reasoning but the remainder of it was as stated.
Don't forget that if you get in an elevator alone with the opposite sex, that's basically a quickie. If you survive a 10 second ride with a woman, without her ripping her clothes off, that's a miracle. And if she's not smoking hot, you can claim you were caught off guard by being with A Woman Not Your Wife™ and this led you to be distracted by her wiles. If she is smoking hot, then she had a honey trap scheme, and was determined to bring about The Fall Of Your Ministry™. This also absolves you, because Satan goes the hardest against Those Who Do God's Will™.
You forgot the best and most effective option, which is to have an affair with your own spouse. No one will ever suspect a thing!
No mention of the SINNERS.
How are we to judge if they’re hot or not or worth it???
Thanks for the excellent advice! :D Will be sharing with my husband to make sure we're on the same page...

Definitely seminary reading material.
I suspect that your transition statement about being blown off course is yet another innuendo. AITR-O (Am I the repressed-one)?
Every 12 months or so?!?! Way more often than that, ETL. Like, every 12 days at least. It's weird that I know. AITR-O?
The name Timothy made me think of Timothee Chalamet. AITR-O?
Makes you think.
🤣😆🫣🤡
“Grace means that I get to rebrand.” Oof. 😭🤣
