    Some Talk The Talk But May Stumble Walking The Talk

    In all honesty, I am probably the world's worst. I embarrass my wife to no end, and almost always get a lecture from her. I comment on people talking, acting, or dressing stupid, and 98% of the time it just rolls right off my tongue. I did it 3 times today in Kroger, as an unfortunate matter...

    marrige questions

    I just wanted to add a quick tidbit that just occurred to me. You both serve the same God. If you're both seeking Him, He is not going to tell you one thing, and her something else. I actually counseled a girl I worked with on this exact same issue. He was convinced, she was not. He was...

    marrige questions

    Well before I can give some advice, I'd need a little more info. How old are you guys? What is the confirmation you've gotten? Are you 1000 % certain that's what it is? One thing I do know is, because we are people, sometimes when we get our hearts set on something, we will convince...

    [__ Prayer __] need prayers for 3 month old Grayson

    THAT IS AWESOME!!! I won't lie, I cried some myself just reading that. That is just...amazing. I don't have words for it. I'm so happy for all of you! Lord, I just want to thank you for working so powerfully in this situation. Lord we thank you for your mercy and your grace, and Father...

    [_ Old Earth _] no big bang

    Very interesting. Good stuff. Very much looking forward to the next thread. I've always found it funny that, when listening or reading about cosmology, the people they interview or quote always say, "We think thus and so," or "We believe this and that happens because." Of further intrigue to...

    am i supposed to be with this girl?

    I think He's saying, "Leave her alone and get over here with Me. We'll deal with that other stuff later."

    am i supposed to be with this girl?

    Eugene posted as I was composing my own, but I agree. When I read his post, I realized that - even though only the two of us have responded - we have both told you the same thing, and have advised turning to God. I'm no prophet, but maybe that should be a hint. What I can tell you for certain...

    am i supposed to be with this girl?

    Well you set me straight about a thing or two, which I appreciate. That being said, you mentioned a couple posts ago... But you never said why you weren't into it. That's a big piece of the equation, but it's missing. With a little more info, now that I know a couple things I didn't know, I...

    am i supposed to be with this girl?

    Yeah, this is definitely complex. Just out of curiosity, how old are you? I'm going to guess about 15, and that this girl was your "first". If I'm wrong, please correct me. The reason I venture that guess is because I've been in those shoes. Been there, done that, got the t-shirt, sent it...

    Can Missionaries Go To Hell?

    "Then said one unto him, Lord, are there few that be saved? And he said unto them,<sup> </sup>Strive to enter in at the strait gate: for many, I say unto you, will seek to enter in, and shall not be able." - Luke 13:23-24 (emphasis added) Jesus tells us very plainly here that most who seek to...

    Husband feeling unwanted/needed un appreciated during pregnancy

    Hey, In Christ! Congrats again on the babies! I have a 7 yr old girl, a 2 yr old girl, and a 9 month old boy. I've been down this road a time or three. ;) You've been given great advice, especially from AirDancer. Every pregnancy is different. My wife didn't have these issues with our...

    :clap I've often heard it said that there is a reason men usually die before their wives. They want to. :yes

    My house is praying hard right along with you. The Lord is standing over this situation. Don't let her give up hope!

    Sex and morals

    I know this has already been addressed, but I just want to echo it. This is not correct. Sex is for a man and a woman within the confines of marriage. Period. Betraying your beliefs so you can "fit in" is no way to honor God. Don't get me wrong, you shouldn't walk around with a megaphone...

    XBOX LIVE CHRISTIAN MINISTRY!

    I think your heart is in the right place, and your intentions are wonderful. But I agree with reba, Nick, and Meatballsub. If you're violating rules, that's not the right way to reach people. That's not the example you want to set. Don't get me wrong. There's nothing wrong with presenting...

    Therefore shall a Man...

    You're talking about Matthew 23:9. "Father" doesn't mean the same thing there as it does in Genesis 2:24. I've copied and pasted a few things to help you understand what Jesus meant. Barnes' Notes on the Bible And call no man your Father ... - This does not, of course, forbid us to apply...

    Age of getting married?

    I was 20, my wife was 18. We got married a week shy of exactly 11 months after we met. In all honesty, if we had it to do again, we might have waited another year or so. We learned the hard way we both still had some growing up to do. But to be blunt, I'm glad we didn't wait, because we...

    Age of getting married?

    Well, according to Infoplease.com, in 2010 the median age was 26.1. I'd say it's somewhere between 22-26, for whatever that's worth.
