Ps... If their beliefs don't matchand you don't consider them as Christian why would the Lutheran even be in any relationship  with a Catholic?

But  youre assuming the parets themselves  are Christian and have Christian moral. Some flat out don't and will teach contrary to it

I would not assume that,  for we know what assumption does. Yet, I do declare it to be so very important that a parent must  not turn their child over to a one week a year Bible teacher, nor a once a week youth leader. It is better for the  youth leader to encourage both the parent and the child to be involved, praying for each, not substituting ones self for a parent. Setting up conflict between a parent and a child is  devastating to the child even when the parent may be wrong, biblically wrong.

 I don't know who you are asking but,....  

Isn't it pretty easy to understand that individuals get into relationships, not to satisfy religious needs, but to have physical  and social contact, love, they burn with passion, etc.? Passion of the fleshly heart has very little to do with the doctrines of church leaders trying to dominate a sect of Christianity.  Trying to satisfy both when neither is  the ultimate which is to be  as Paul was that of being without need of any kind, is an  interesting dilemma I suppose, but also rather self extinquishing too if all reach that ultimate.

Sometimes it is not so easy to follow. Not saying you should or shouldn't. I am just being real here in what I say.  First you have to find someone who is a Christian. Then their Christian believes need to work with your Christian believes. What I mean by that is it would be unlikely that I would marry a Christian if say he believed that watching tv and playing rock music was sinful things. So let say you find someone who is a Christian and their believes line up with yours. Well then you have to fall in love. Then they have to be someone you want to marry and someone you can see yourself spending the rest of your life with. There are a few more things like employment and how many children you can agree on but I just wrote the highlights.  

Sometimes it all lines up and works out. Other times you find yourself having a very long search. Finding someone you can fall in love with and marry is hard enough as it is. Finding someone who shares your religious believes that you can fall in love and marry is very hard.  Again I am not telling anyone what the right or the wrong thing is to do. But back before I found someone and got married. It was very very hard to find a suitable boy friend that I liked enough to be a boy friend and who also shared my religious believes.  God Bless!

    • 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.
