@DalishElora What better thing to bring up (bible) when talking of dating. It's good to consult the one who created everything in a matter like this then go into dating blindly and not setting standards for yourself. The person you date could potentially be your partner for life so best to set standards, Godly standards are best because God is the one who created marriage and put guild lines in the bible that we can follow and marry the best person for us and also be best we can!
@collettelabeau Don't know specifically about getting high, but here are some things about being drunk."And do not get drunk with wine, for that is debauchery, but be filled with the Spirit, (eph 5:18) Envy, drunkenness, orgies, and things like these. I warn you, as I warned you before, that those who do such things will not inherit the kingdom of God. (Gal 5:21) Wine is a mocker, strong drink a brawler, and whoever is led astray by it is not wise. (prov 20:1)and the list goes on
@lovekage231 Its not that, but what I am saying is if the person I'm with can be on time for things like his job and other functions, then is late to church it tells me where his priorities lie.
Great list! as long as the list is flexible in that you realize that we as men may have a willing heart to be a good husband but need to learn some things. 2 as long as you dont make premature judgments about a man because he doesnt say or do the right things when you think he should do it. Get to know a man/woman first before interpreting everything he/she does. You get turned off and ready to run?..you'll never find Mr./Mrs. right . Talking to men and women. Thanx and respect
Good stuff, sis. I'm workin on #4. I'm not afraid 2 take the lead, I just tend 2 b indecisive sometimes. Also w/ some things, I don't mind going w/ the flow so I let other ppl make decisions @ times. I know I have 2 change tho bcuz I'm meant 2 lead, & not just in marriage. God is changin me tho. Also workin on punctuality in general.
@saintcharles1000 C'mon dude, seriously. Anyway, God did give u a pair of eyes, but His word says n Matthew 5 that if a man looks @ a woman lustfully, he's committed adultery n his heart so we must not use the eyes He gave us 2 sin. And ur right, Jesus never had a girlfriend bcuz that wasn't the Father's will 4 Him. Had it been the Father's will, He would have had 1. That's the point of being like Christ. He was only concerned w/ the will of the Father.
When you talk about women submitting to their husbands, I thought of Confucius. He had the same idea. He also emphasized the importance of "rectification of names". A person with the title of king, who does not rule with justice as a king should, is not a king. A cup that does not hold water should not be called a cup. He said that to promote harmony, we should all fulfill our roles. So I suppose he would say a man who quotes the verse without following the next verse himself, is not a man.
you will make some 1 a good wife some day but like i said, my opinion must be heard as well, every scale has a balance, most men today don't take up their role, instead of being the head some act like the tail. When God sends a man my way that is worthy, all well and good, until then... need I say more. God knows exactly what he created and that man has to be strong to control this one... bless
@manofsteel33 Thanks so much bro! Im striving to be like the father each day! I hope I will too! If you want to communicate more please add me on FB, search "Shanequa Lee" Stay blessed bro! :D
Yes, and I sincerely praise you're very wise decisions. Good job living in happiness and prosperity. Whatever makes everyone happy is their own business. ^^
And I AM living a life for him. A GOOD life. I' not just gettng ready to die. The Lord put us on this Earth for a reason, and I'm living that reason. To easily enjoy ourselves, make the best out of life, find love and happiess, and most of all, enjoy it. Have fun. Just not TOO much. ;)
@KagomeHHaruhiF He examines and looks at the heart when we do anything, so whats most important is our motives and the state of our heart when we do anything. Colossians 3:17 states “And whatever you do, whether in word or deed, do it all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him.” Meaning that everything we do,....
@KagomeHHaruhiF including the fun we have and who we decide to be with in a relationship should honor him, and he will be looking at our hearts through every activity in our lives. Stay blessed sis!
Im not a nonbeliever!!! Don't you go thinking you know me when you don't. I believe, I go to church, I'm equally active in my good deeds and volunteer work both involving and excluding the church. I'm a Roman Catholic, and I'm proud. Sure, I follow the rules, but I live my own life, life is supposed to be fun and enjoyable, not restricted and boring. So basically all your telling me is that you're just getting ready and preparing to die before you've even LIVED. From your response to me.
@KagomeHHaruhiF Lol, I think maybe what you are viewing as an obsession with Christ is a deep love for him. For me and others, being a Christian is more than going to church on Sunday, being religious, even doing service acts or merely following the ‘rules’. For me, being a Christian is having a deep personal relationship with him. And instead of just viewing religion and Jesus as the ‘right’ thing to do, or something that I know is right I must do, its more about Jesus’s love for me.
@KagomeHHaruhiF Wonderful! Im always happy to fellowship with a sister in Christ! :D I think the Christ calls us to more and a better life than simply just following the rules. He wants to have an intimate and personal relationship with us in which our faith in him, our relationship with him, and our lives are all interconnected instead of separate. He wants us to base our actions not just merely on his law, but also on his love for us and ours for him.
I wasn't directing anything towards your faith. If I offended you at all there was no intention to do so. I do apologize for that. My goal is to only encourage and not to put down. I know how it feels to have other brothers and sisters of Christ wear there faith like a fancy belt. I do not know you but as a servant of God I do care about your well being. Like I said, Christianity is a choice. I choose to live my life based on God by worshiping through everything I do.
@dbrider93 Well, most religions are actually faith based, as for the bibles definition of faith that would be "Now faith is the substantiating of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen." Meaning in order to be a Christian, you must have faith. God will reveal himself to you, the bible says "Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they shall be satisfied." If you wanted to chat about it I would be happy to chat with you! :D
@dbrider93 How about the fact that historians, whether Christian or not, agree that the Bible is the MOST accurate account of history known 2 man? Or that the existence, life, & death of Jesus have been historically proven? Or that miracles from the Bible such as the parting of the Red Sea have been proven using scientific method? There r many more proven facts from the Bible. Don't believe me? U can look it up. I pray that u recieve revelation of the truth & embrace it.
Relationships should be based on GOD because without him things go down hill (I speaj from experience). Also, it's not religion, its a way of life, Christ died so that we can live, so why not live your life for him? If we don't then He just died in vain, He gave us the ultimate sacrifice! lastly, if u r unequally yoked in your life stlyes then it WILL NOT work (again.....I speak from experience).
I love the person for WHO they are. Not what religion they are. Sure, maybe that's a part of them to you, but I look besides the point. I mean, it's not like im gonna marry someone who's religion it is to kill or behead people... I'll probably end up marrying someone of my own religion, but find that out later. I've liked this one boy for 2 years now, and just now found out a couple of months ago he's also Catholic. Im sorry, but I just don't base my relationships all off of religion...
@KagomeHHaruhiF . So after I deepened my relationship with Christ I also REALLY realized that nothing would be possible for me without him. As for dating someone of the same religion, I try not to get caught up in that too much, the main thing is same views on Christ and God, however dating outside your religion and denomination could complicate things later because one of you will most likely have to convert.
@KagomeHHaruhiF As for dating an atheist, I would steer you away from that, because the bible calls us to be ‘equally yoked’, and dating an atheist or non-believer would make you unequally yoked, plus, how could you date someone who hates/or does acknowledge or believe in your savior and your God? Another thing to keep in mind with relationships is making sure you guys share the same vision, so you can keep on the path and purpose that God has given you both for you life!
Jeesh... Why is everyone here so obsessed with christ? I mean, sure, I care, I go to religion and church, and pray every night, but why would anyone base their relationship on god? Or is it just some that do that??? Im Roman Catholic, and it doesn't really matter to ME what religion my boyfriend or husband is, its about who they are BESIDES that. Im not gonna be all prejudice and say, "Oh, well, you cant date me because your Aethiest" or whatever... I mean, I dont think i've ever thought that...
Do not be unequally yoked with unbelievers. For what partnership has righteousness with lawlessness? Or what fellowship has light with darkness?
Let the Lord into your heart and submit to him before you submit to someone else, you will see the difference in your relationship. Its great to find someone to accept for who they are especially if thats what you want :) God blessed us with our own free will.
Do not be unequally yoked with unbelievers. For what partnership has righteousness with lawlessness? Or what fellowship has light with darkness?
God gave us the chance to have our own free will. If we choose to obide by his will is completely up to us. The bible is our guide through the world. By knowing the word is knowing how to better prepare ourselves to walk in the light.
@KagomeHHaruhiF A couple years back it finally became real to me, the cross and Jesus’s sacrifice he made for me. He went on the cross in my place to bridge the gap between God and I. Before Jesus people had to actually kill animals and shed blood for our sins to be forgiven, because the penalty for sin is DEATH. How terrible!! So, I realized that I really do owe God my life, and from then on I based everything on God and Christ, instead of everything around God and Christ.
i uderstand but i hate the word submit, the only being that i'll do that 4 isgod, i will listen once t make sense, its good and its right, if i dont understand explain it to me, im not in for the "u speak i obey attitude"
times have changed alot my opinion counts 2, bless
@614queenbee Hey! Yes, I understand where you’re coming from and I think that many women hate to hear the word ‘submit’, BUT the same bible verse that calls women to submit to their husband also calls man (husband) to LOVE his wife as Christ loved the church and gave his body for her, meaning the husband will die for the wife.
@614queenbee ...So in a good Christian relationship, both the man would be loving (real love) the wife, and wife would be submitting to him. If a man was really loving a wife, he would never be harsh with you, like the “you speak, I obey” example you gave is not real love. If the man loved he wouldn’t be harsh, he would treat you exactly like Christ treated the church. For a good definition to what love is check out 1 Corinthians 13! Stay blessed my sister!
Yeah I hate the submit to your husband line, people use it as a way of justifying Abuse sometimes. That wasn't God's original plan, before sin. God form woman, from the side of man not form the foot, because she wan't intended to be trampled upon, nor form the head, to be ruler over her husband, but from his rib, right under his arms. She was to be his help-meet. His companion, his equal...
@Dec986 I agree with you that people can misuse the submission line and its sad..However the bible does call women as a man’s wife to submit to their husband, AND in turn the husbands are called to LOVE their wives as Christ loved the church. Ultimately Christ died for us and husbands are also called to do so for their wives. So since the wife is submitting to the husband, and husband is loving the wife, in essence they are both equally submitting to each other.
wow.. way to bring up the fucking bible just shut up dumb ass.
