This post is good incentive for those who don't make it priority and study both the old and new as we should (me)... to study/search out questions and read/pray/ more Miss Mcubed... lack of response may be due to lack of disagreeing or argument on the points you make. Newer believers need the guidance and elders sometimes need to re-kindle the coals to fire and flames again... Thank you!:glow:

The young man apologized and that oughta' be all anyone needs to say on that subject. It's inappropriate as already has been stated, this ain't a men's locker room and even there it would be inappropriate as Christians to be talking that way.

Recovering From Disappointment

I've been going through some similar times there Reno, don't think it's an age, gender or skin color thing.... we all get to experience these disappointment and hurts to some degree.

It's probably wise to keep things in perspective concerning our desires, our relationship to God, our personal study and prayer, our friends and family and not expect too much on things that we have no control over... and try to keep a good attitude and be genuine, that's one of the main things that I find attractive reading through some of the women's profiles. It doesn't necessarily guarantee I'll get a reply if I am to write them, some will and some won't. :( I agree with you and the others here...

Talking With Someone's Ex?
Posted : 7 Oct, 2013 07:06 PM

Whether good, bad, right or wrong I've always tried to take a person at their word from the very beginning, everyone starts out with a clean slate. I don't automatically believe everything, that takes time. It's as the relationship develops that all the small things and the quirks begin to surface where you have to deal with and decide if these are things you can overlook or whether it's this person's personality or something you see that is a hurt from this person's past that needs healing and you have the ability and desire to help. Either way you must decide how or if you can tolerate it and be willing to deal with it.

If a couple is considering marriage then by this point seems like the couple should know each other pretty well and not need to be asking family, friends, let alone ex's about this person.

I wouldn't have any interest in seeking advice from an ex spouse concerning a woman I was seriously interested in... if there is any doubt concerning her then the relationship ain't going to move forward period.

If she's the type that flies off the handle and slaps or hits then I won't be around long, and yes there are some gals who seem to know no better than to reach out and strike.

Woes to a man if he strikes a woman or is verbally abusiive!!! That shouldn't tolerated at all!

What is the Gospel, Really?
Posted : 6 Oct, 2013 06:42 AM

Thank you SBD, IWA and Teach for your answers, I do agree!





(Psalm 25:8-10)

[8]�Good and upright is the LORD;

therefore he instructs sinners in the way.

[9]�He leads the humble in what is right,

and teaches the humble his way.

[10]�All the paths of the LORD are steadfast love and faithfulness, for those who keep his covenant and his testimonies.







(Psalm 40:10 ESV)

[10]�I have not hidden your deliverance within my heart;

I have spoken of your faithfulness and your salvation;

I have not concealed your steadfast love and your faithfulness from the great congregation.

Truth
Posted : 6 Oct, 2013 05:57 AM

[I Am the Way, and the Truth, and the Life]

[14:1]��Let not your hearts be troubled. Believe in God; believe also in me. [2]�In my Father's house are many rooms. If it were not so, would I have told you that I go to prepare a place for you? [3]�And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and will take you to myself, that where I am you may be also. [4]�And you know the way to where I am going.� [5]�Thomas said to him, �Lord, we do not know where you are going. How can we know the way?� [6]�Jesus said to him, �I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me. [7]�If you had known me, you would have known my Father also. From now on you do know him and have seen him.�

[8]�Philip said to him, �Lord, show us the Father, and it is enough for us.� [9]�Jesus said to him, �Have I been with you so long, and you still do not know me, Philip? Whoever has seen me has seen the Father. How can you say, �Show us the Father�? [10]�Do you not believe that I am in the Father and the Father is in me? The words that I say to you I do not speak on my own authority, but the Father who dwells in me does his works. [11]�Believe me that I am in the Father and the Father is in me, or else believe on account of the works themselves.

[12]��Truly, truly, I say to you, whoever believes in me will also do the works that I do; and greater works than these will he do, because I am going to the Father. [13]�Whatever you ask in my name, this I will do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son. [14]�If you ask me anything in my name, I will do it.

[Jesus Promises the Holy Spirit]

[15]��If you love me, you will keep my commandments. [16]�And I will ask the Father, and he will give you another Helper, to be with you forever, [17]�even the Spirit of truth, whom the world cannot receive, because it neither sees him nor knows him. You know him, for he dwells with you and will be in you.

[18]��I will not leave you as orphans; I will come to you. [19]�Yet a little while and the world will see me no more, but you will see me. Because I live, you also will live. [20]�In that day you will know that I am in my Father, and you in me, and I in you. [21]�Whoever has my commandments and keeps them, he it is who loves me. And he who loves me will be loved by my Father, and I will love him and manifest myself to him.� [22]�Judas (not Iscariot) said to him, �Lord, how is it that you will manifest yourself to us, and not to the world?� [23]�Jesus answered him, �If anyone loves me, he will keep my word, and my Father will love him, and we will come to him and make our home with him. [24]�Whoever does not love me does not keep my words. And the word that you hear is not mine but the Father's who sent me.

[25]��These things I have spoken to you while I am still with you. [26]�But the Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, he will teach you all things and bring to your remembrance all that I have said to you. [27]�Peace I leave with you; my peace I give to you. Not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your hearts be troubled, neither let them be afraid. [28]�You heard me say to you, �I am going away, and I will come to you.� If you loved me, you would have rejoiced, because I am going to the Father, for the Father is greater than I. [29]�And now I have told you before it takes place, so that when it does take place you may believe. [30]�I will no longer talk much with you, for the ruler of this world is coming. He has no claim on me, [31]�but I do as the Father has commanded me, so that the world may know that I love the Father. Rise, let us go from here.
