And welcome back to "The 700 Club."

It's time to bring it on with your email questions.

We're going to start with Carl, who

write, "Did I understand your statement on a previous show

correctly that couples living together,

avoiding the social security law,

should go before the church and get married and forget

about a license because it's only a piece of paper?

If so, is the minister violating the law?

I agree with your idea, but I want

to make sure I wouldn't be breaking the law by doing so."

There's no law to break about getting married.

I mean, you know, you can get married and say, I'm married.

Well, what I was saying, essentially,

is that you need to solemnify a relationship.

Just living together doesn't fulfill the biblical mandate

of marriage.

You need to have something where you commit yourself

to your spouse and it's solemnified.

But as I say, before God you don't

have to go down to a clerk at a court and get a license.

And I don't think you're breaking

any law because of that.

I mean, you say, I married.

Well, OK, you're married.

And let them determine you're not.

[LAUGHING] All right, what else?

All right, Terry says, "Hi, Pat.

In heaven, will people remember happenings in their life

that they don't want to remember?"

I have a feeling that there will

be no tears and no sorrow in heaven.

And the Bible talks about the sea of God's forgetfulness.

I think the thing about heaven is we're

going to be spiritual beings.

And we're going to be in the presence of God.

And we're going to be so consumed

with the joy of the glory of God that all this stuff is

going to fail in this-- fade into insignificance.

Right now, it's such a big deal.

All right, I lied on my taxes or I

stole money or I cheated on my wife or whatever you did.

All that is just not going to have

any significance in heaven, because we'll

be in the presence of God, and it will be so glorious.

And I think that's the focus of our life,

not will we carry over those memories.

I don't know if we will or not, but chances are,

God can cause us to forget.

And He says there won't be any sorrow, any tears.

So if you've got regret and sorrow,

that means that He'll take away the things that cause when

you're in heaven, all right?

Amen.

All right, this viewer says, "Dear Pat,

the Bible says in Isaiah 53:2, 'He

grew up before him like a tender shoot and like

a root out of dry ground.

He had no beauty or majesty to attract us to him,

nothing in his appearance that we should desire him.'

This was referring to our Lord Jesus.

So I wonder, why wasn't Jesus fair to look at?

He was God, so why did God come and become so ordinary?

Was that a part of him humbling himself from a glorious God

into fully human but also fully God?"

As one part of the Bible--

I think-- was it 53rd of Isaiah that said,

he was beaten so badly he didn't even look human.

He was so badly beaten, I think this one of the things

that Mel Gibson got in that series

he did on "The Passion of the Christ."

But it was so bad he didn't even look human.

He had no form of comeliness that we should desire him.

He wasn't some Adonis, this beautiful guy

with this big physique and all these pretty stuff.

But he was humble and like a root under dry ground.

I mean, he was subject to the vagaries of life.

He was born in a stable, and he had none of the majesty

that you would associate with royalty and wealth and power

and all that, because that's the way God wanted him.

So we can identify, I can identify with the Savior

who was born in a stable.

I have a hard time identifying with some,

you know, superman with all kinds of muscles and beauty.

He didn't have that, and that was God's plan.

So what we desire is the spirit that was in him, not

his outward appearance.

Good answer.

All right, Carol says, "I have been

and am currently on antidepressants for 45 years.

My first husband had a hot temper, and after 27 years,

I left him.

I married someone else who turned out to be just

like my first husband.

I have no hope left.

How do I continue living with a man who has a horrible temper

day in and day out?

Luckily, we don't have any kids."

I think there's something psychologically wrong

with you that you desire some guy who'd abuse you.

You're drawn to the same kind of person.

I'm not sure that your second marriage has validity.

I don't know why you got divorced the first time

and whether this one has any validity at all.

But-- so I don't know enough about you,

but I would say that you don't need

to live in a situation that is hell on Earth.

You don't have to be tortured.

You don't have to be abused.

You don't have to set yourself up

because of some rule that says you can't get divorced,

all right?

I mean, Jesus loves her and wants her to be

free from that depression.

I think that's exactly it.

All right.

OK, Joellen says, "My doctor wants

to put me on a statin drug.

I know you've talked about these drugs in the past.

However, can you please remind me why they are so bad?

I need to know before I go in for my follow-up appointment."

All right, the drug companies have sold statins

like a kid eating candy.

It's unbelievable how many of them have been prescribed.

Look, what do statins do?

Number one, they take away CoQ10, which is a heart health

vitamin you desperately need.

So you're setting yourself to a heart attack

when you take statins.

The next thing is, almost invariably they

cause terrific muscle pain and aches and pains.

You feel like you're old and you got arthritis.

They are not good things for you.

There are many ways-- and you know, this obsession

with lowering cholesterol, we're not sure we need cholesterol.

I mean, our brain works off fat and cholesterol.

It's good for us.

And so there's been this obsession with cholesterol.

But there are other ways.

My wife takes something called red yeast rice, which

is a natural form that the liver responds to and doesn't

take statins.

I say you just can't take those things,

because they make you suffer and hurt.

And I think it's an abomination that they push these things

on patients by the millions.

And sure, if you're a cardiologist

and you think somebody's cholesterol should be lowered,

well, then that's a worthy thing.

But there are many ways of doing it.

For example, dark chocolate lowers cholesterol.

There are other ways that you can

get your cholesterol under control without taking statins.

There are natural ways of doing it.

So, I just--

I'm anti-statin, ladies and gentlemen,

even though the drug companies probably won't like it.
