You know, Dakilang, that when you became born again the Lord removed your sins 'as far as the East is from the West'.....in other words you are a new man and God doesn't remember your former self. The woman who marries you will be marrying the man you are NOW. :)

I know. But there is still that longing....

I guess what I am saying is, because I'd been rejected so many times before, my heart is looking for assurance, for some actual evidence, that someone would really love me like how God has loved me....

You see, I had loved a Christian woman before who had thought that my dedication to Christ was not worth fighting for.... And this happened not just once, but twice.

If they didn't see that your devotion to the Lord was worth fighting for then they were not true Christians, brother. You need a woman who will uphold you, as you uphold her, and who understands that Christ comes first in your life, as He should in hers. That woman is out there.....trust God to bring her into your life. :)

I too am a Christian woman who 'saved herself' for marriage - and now, as a widow, am 'saving myself' again. So we do exist.

I am wondering though - is the OP angry with women who were previously, uh, wild but are now dedicated to the LORD and no longer promiscuous? If so, that is taking things too far (IMO). On the other hand, sadly, there are women in the churches, claiming to be Christian, yet still running around and living for the flesh. If this is the type of woman Big Time is angry about, that I can understand.

Btw, has he been back to this thread since he posted the OP?

i don't think he's been back. it sounded (at least to me) that he was angry at women in general for not all staying virgins. however, if i misunderstood and he's mad at women who claim to be christians but who still want to sleep around, then yep, i can understand and agree with him on that!

hmm, i would definitely like to save myself for my husband...I was actually wondering where i could buy one of those purity rings...

Have you guys heard of them? They're rings to symbolize your commitment of some sort...ect..not really sure to tell you the truth, but i know it's a physical way of showing how you plan on saving yourself for your future husband... :noidea:

Anybody know what i'm talking about?

Yes and you should be able to get them from most Christain shops or on line stores BUT a word of warning ...they do NOT protect you from the sort of idiot that would take it as a personal challenge so chose your company wisely and you wont NEED a ring to remind you :emot-hug::emot-hug::emot-hug:

    • You are coming up higher in this season – above the assignments of character assassination and verbal arrows sent to manage you, contain you, and derail your purpose. Where you have had your dreams and sleep robbed, as well as your peace and clarity robbed – leaving you feeling foggy, confused, and heavy – God is, right now, bringing freedom back -- now you will clearly see the smoke and mirrors that were set to distract you and you will disengage.

      Right now God is declaring a "no access zone" around you, and your enemies will no longer have any entry point into your life. Oil is being poured over you to restore the years that the locust ate and give you back your passion. This is where you will feel a fresh roar begin to erupt from your inner being, and a call to leave the trenches behind and begin your odyssey in your Christ calling moving you to bear fruit that remains as you minister to and disciple others into their Christ identity.

      This is where you leave the trenches and scale the mountain to fight from a different place, from victory, from peace, and from rest. Now watch as God leads you up higher above all the noise, above all the chaos, and shows you where you have been seated all along with Him in heavenly places where you are UNTOUCHABLE. This is where you leave the soul fight, and the mind battle, and learn to fight differently.

      You will know how to live like an eagle and lead others to the same place of safety and protection that God led you to, which broke you out of the silent prison you were in. Put your war boots on and get ready to fight back! Refuse to lay down -- get out of bed and rebuke what is coming at you. Remember where you are seated and live from that place.

      Acts 1:8 - “But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you will be my witnesses … to the end of the earth.”

    • George Whitten, the visionary behind Worthy Ministries and Worthy News, explores the timing of the Simchat Torah War in Israel. Is this a water-breaking moment? Does the timing of the conflict on October 7 with Hamas signify something more significant on the horizon?

    • Understanding the Enemy!

      I thought I write about the flip side of a topic, and how to recognize the attempts of the enemy to destroy lives and how you can walk in His victory!

      For the Apostle Paul taught us not to be ignorant of enemy's tactics and strategies.

      2 Corinthians 2:112  Lest Satan should get an advantage of us: for we are not ignorant of his devices. 

      So often, we can learn lessons by learning and playing "devil's" advocate.  When we read this passage,

      Mar 3:26  And if Satan rise up against himself, and be divided, he cannot stand, but hath an end. 
      Mar 3:27  No man can enter into a strong man's house, and spoil his goods, except he will first bind the strongman; and then he will spoil his house. 

      Here we learn a lesson that in order to plunder one's house you must first BIND up the strongman.  While we realize in this particular passage this is referring to God binding up the strongman (Satan) and this is how Satan's house is plundered.  But if you carefully analyze the enemy -- you realize that he uses the same tactics on us!  Your house cannot be plundered -- unless you are first bound.   And then Satan can plunder your house!

    • Abraham and Issac: Pictures of the Resurrection, Part 2
      Shalom everyone,

      As we continue this series the next obvious sign of the resurrection in the Old Testament is the sign of Isaac and Abraham.

      Gen 22:1  After these things God tested Abraham and said to him, "Abraham!" And he said, "Here I am."
      Gen 22:2  He said, "Take your son, your only son Isaac, whom you love, and go to the land of Moriah, and offer him there as a burnt offering on one of the mountains of which I shall tell you."

      So God "tests" Abraham and as a perfect picture of the coming sacrifice of God's only begotten Son (Yeshua - Jesus) God instructs Issac to go and sacrifice his son, Issac.  Where does he say to offer him?  On Moriah -- the exact location of the Temple Mount.
