  1. I think this is very good advice. Unless you have experienced exactly what the person is going through you probably don't know how they feel. Most of the time when we are hurting, we need someone to sit next to us, and just be there ....you don't have to say a lot of deep things, just your presence and physical touch is very healing and supportive to someone hurting. I think this is one of the reasons that people gain such support from their pets . The pet will just sit there and be a loving presence.
  2. The questions that you say he is asking you are shocking to say the least. No your physical measurements should not be part of the equation.I wouldn't expect that from somebody in the world either. He doesn't sound like he actually "walks the walk," which makes him no better than an unbeliever, and I would get away from this guy. Count your blessings that you noticed these things in the beginning, there's a lot less chance of being hurt this way. A Real believer doesn't just talk but he behaves in a decent and honorable way.
  3. All our Behavior should be honorable as Christians , this includes our personal relationships. If you have made a commitment to this person I don't see how you are now asking about "shopping around." It sounds to me like you are not sure about this relationship and it would be the correct thing to do to end it, rather than create heartache, should you find another person more desirable.
  4. Actually I know couple of people that met online and are happily married so I guess it's possible. for young people online dating is like talking on the phone something they do all the time and they're comfortable with. they're very sharp too they seem to figure out phonies immediately.
  5. I don't smoke or drink, but I did make an attempt to learn both as a teenager. My efforts at smoking made me nauseous and dizzy plus I never had the money for that so I gave it up quickly. I understand once you start smoking though, it's a very very hard to quit, so I would classify it as an addiction. Drinking is a little bit of a different matter,unless you've gone so far as to become an alcoholic in that case it's also a type of addiction. personally the taste of alcohol doesn't really appeal to me so it's not that much of a temptation. In both above scenarios I would say the person is in bondage to addictions and needs deliverance. As a follower of the Lord Jesus Christ it would be a terrible witness for me to be walking around with a glass of whiskey in one hand and a cigarette in the other. How could I tell them about the delivering power of Christ, when I'm doing exactly the same thing an unsaved person would be doing? I don't believe it's God's best for us to be addicted to anything. Or to be in any kind of bondage physical or spiritual. he who the son sets free is free indeed! John 8:36
  6. I think the solar eclipse is a rare occurrence however, it's is a natural event. God has worked through the natural environment with signs before but I think it would be more noteworthy if we had an eclipse when none was expected.
  7. Good to know! Hope we see you soon!
  8. This is a very demonic experience that you're having,and I'm wondering if you have dabbled in the occult at all prior to becoming a Christian or if you are involved in it now. Or if family members are involved in these things? If so I recommend that you remove everything having to do with the occult and Witchcraft from your home... get rid of it now . Renounce your involvement with it and ask the Lord to forgive you for the sin of witchcraft. If you still feel an oppressive presence, get an elder from the church in to pray. You can be free and God wants you to be free of fear and torment.
  9. Hi Pearl, If you can practice forgiveness with people, you will find such freedom for your emotions, that you can go through this life loving everyone you meet and very rarely being hurt. Since you have so many opportunities to develop in this gift of forgiveness, why not talk to the Lord about it and start as an act of your will, saying , "Lord, I forgive them!?" You will find that eventually, the feelings will follow, and it will be very easy to let go of every offense,and walk in love. God bless you as you journey towards the power of forgiveness!
  10. Hi Kelly, I know from personal experience that when life has a lot of complications my tendency has been to try to take them all on. it's impossible for one human being to handle every issue of Life on their own. Jesus addressed this by telling us, Let each day's trouble be sufficient for that day. Matthew 6:34. This is the first place I would start with your situation only look at what that day has brought to you,that will help tremendously for a start. Another thing to consider, is that Jesus told us to cast all of our cares on him not to solve them ourselves, or try to figure them all out, or correct them. 1 Peter 5:7. The way I do this is to imagine that there is a cart with a donkey pulling it. I take all the problems I can think of that at that moment, and put them in the back of the cart and send them off in my imagination( his yoke is easy and his burden is light.) In this way I give them to Jesus to handle. Through the years I have been amazed at how impossible situations have work themselves out, and people have changed in only ways that a miracle-working God could perform. I've learned to trust him more, worry less and enjoy life! God bless you as you walk with him.
  11. My dear,if you give your heart to Jesus...you are family to all who love him!
  12. I would recommend you read the book of Psalms. Psalms are actually songs, in church we put many of them to music. As you read the scripture and meditate upon the word aim your thoughts towards what the Bible is telling you, and away from those things that make you feel sad. The Bible actually tells us in Philippians 4:8 that we should think on good things. It's hard to be depressed when you're thinking about joyful things and all the wonderful promises the word of God has for us.
  13. God is faithful to his word. He says draw near unto me and I will draw near unto you. James 4:8. If you seek the Lord he will reveal himself to you and you will no longer have these doubts. Proverbs 8:17. At this point it will come with a cost but the Lord will help you .I'll keep your situation in prayer.
  14. I don't think of micro SIM chip is the sign of the Beast or 666. My dog has one so I can find her, and I understand they're using them for Alzheimer patients who get lost. I don't like any job enough to have them shove things in under my skin so I would say no to that!
  15. The Gospel of Jesus Christ is this; the only way to know God in peace love and joy, is through the reconciling death of Jesus Christ Our Risen Lord! This is the central message of the gospels and the only way to truly understand them. For God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten son that whosoever believeth on him should not perish but have everlasting life John 3:16
  16. My younger sister really liked that movie . Personally I don't think a movie in and of itself is sin, unless it's obviously something you know shouldn't watch . There are movies that I avoid. I really hate to see anything where people are being tortured and I refuse to go to films like that. I do not like heavily violent films or scary demonic things. Much in the same way you avoid certain foods because you know they will give you an upset stomach, you should avoid involving yourself through watching or participating in things that you know are not good for you. I believe this is wisdom.
  17. My daily prayer when I wake up in the morning is, "Lord I ask for and receive Grace for today". We need God's grace to handle everything that we come in contact with including people that disappoint us or hurt us. In my opinion it's the only way to deal with everything we have to deal with in the course of a day. Don't give up Steve there's lots of other people like you!
  18. To be like Jesus in every way is the goal of a True Believer and disciple of Jesus Christ. To see others Through The Eyes Of Love the Way That Jesus does would be a wonderful goal to have,I know it's one of mine.
  19. It's very easy to form a theology based on personal experience but it's not wise to do so. In the spirit realm there is neither male nor female Satan is a spirit and more evil and anything you've ever known. Matthew 22:30
  20. Do you think your family would agree to go to church with you? You need a very strong church that believes the word of God and believes in prayer and deliverance. More than anything else your family needs Jesus. I was able to get some unruly family members to come to church with me by offering to make lunch for everyone afterwards. If you can get them there and they're exposed to the love of God they will change!
  21. I will assume your question as innocent and you post without knowledge but it is borderline blasphemous. The identity of the comforter is clearly explained in the scriptures as being the Holy Spirit who is God or the third person of the Trinity. (John 14:16) No mere man could possibly be the comforter, as this entity is with every believer who has received Jesus Christ as their lord and savior and lives inside of us.
  22. I understand what you're saying Steve and I agree with you. We do have numerous earthquakes here, and they recommend that you keep a small supply of water, flashlights, and first aid kit and that I do have, but as far as hoarding up for future Calamity no.
  23. You sound depressed. Do you think that might be the problem ?
