    Please Help Keep Sex Fetishism Out of Children's Television

    Brother Mike, Still, we are supposed to be the light to this world and the salt of the earth. What does the salt do? It preserves and stops decay. We should also do our best to stop moral decay. "A city set on a hill cannot be hidden; nor does anyone light a lamp and put it under a basket, but...

    Humbling yourself before your wife

    Sincere apology is always better than drama performance, and that goes both ways: both husband and wife should seek reconciliation (if possible).

    Unbelieving husband left me

    Cling to Jesus is the best we can do when things go wrong (and when everything is fine as well). Please don't be afraid to attend church. Don't be afraid of what other people may think. The devil may try to prevent you from attending church by instilling fear and guilt, but you shouldn't give in...

    Did God hate Esau? Or hate individuals?

    Esau traded his birthright for a bowl of soup. Carnal was more important to him than spiritual. God wants us to put spiritual over carnal. Nevertheless, Esau was still blessed, that is probably why he managed to forgive Jacob. The latter still suffered because he received his blessing by lying...

    Situation....

    Handy, if you have concerns, talk to you daughter. Tell her that it's not the matter that you distrust her, but it's very easy (especially at such an impressable age) to develop a crush on somebody and wish for more intimacy, so she should be careful and set boundaries in case somebody would be...

    Ways of winning people for Christ

    http://news.sky.com/story/18393/australia-mourns-man-who-stopped-160-suicides Also a great way for evangelism and leading people to Christ (I am not sure that particular man did this, but it could be a great opportunity). I hope there will be more people who could substitute this man.

    Ways of winning people for Christ

    Of course, you should help wisely. Especially you shouldn't give someone money if you know he would use it on drugs.

    Ways of winning people for Christ

    Angel, I also noticed coldness in some churches today. When I lived in London, Christians showed me practical love and showed me that they really cared (I am still thinking of these people very warmly); when I moved to Belarus and visited several churches (only officially registered churches at...

    Ways of winning people for Christ

    Dear brothers and sisters in Christ! What are the ways that we can use to spread the gospel and win more people for Christ? "Though I am free and belong to no one, I have made myself a slave to everyone, to win as many as possible. To the Jews I became like a Jew, to win the Jews. To those...

    your own salvation experience

    My mum started taking me to Protestant church when I was 10; I liked it, but I understood the importance of personal relationship with God only when I turned 18 and moved to a different country to a much bigger city than I grew up in. I was there all alone and I realised that without God I would...

    [__ Prayer __] The past always seems to tap on my shoulder

    Dear Jack, If it didn't work out with your girlfriend, then she is not for you, and it is best that you split up before marriage because marriage itself is hard, and you should really choose your lifetime spouse wisely, though I can totally understand your feelings; it took me 4 years to get...

    would we also labor in heaven?

    OTR spouse

    My dad is a long-distance driver, and he was/is away from home for months... They are still together with my mum... BUT... He has a short temper and gets easily bored at home, so distance actually helped my parents' marriage like in the saying "distance makes the heart grow fonder". On the other...

    Very unhappy marriage

    I would agree. Before being married I thought I was totally ok, but marriage showed me my weak traits, and at times I can behave really ugly. Marriage is for own refinement that can be quite painful, but it can draw us closer to Christ, so we could have a deeper relationship with Him that would...

    Very unhappy marriage

    As it has been said here on this forum (and I've read it somewhere else also), marriage isn't about happiness, but it's about commitment. Of course, we want to be happy, but our true contentment can be only in Christ alone. There are always going to be areas, where there are trials and...

    The strength of a woman

    God empowered woman to influence men and create atmosphere at home; and she can use it either for good or for evil: (Proverbs 14:1 NIV)

    dealing with toxic parents or in laws

    Yes, I've been in a similar position with relatives on my husband's side. I found out that first and foremost you can't change them. I tried hard at the beginning, but then realized it was futile. So you just have to accept that is the way how they are for the time being. You can't change them...
