[s]You have said nothing of value here Buda. My lack of knowledge is outstanding but you forget that fool is always wise in his own eyes.

You quote the Scriptures like only satan can. Didn't he assure Jesus of his protection by angels if he jumped down from the top of the temple?

Love your neighbor doesn't mean partaking or promoting the lawlessness of sons of Belial![/s]

shadeyinka:
[s]You may ascribe whatever you want to what I have said...does it matter?
It is worthless statements, empty and without content. You do not even seem to know the meaning of false witness with all your readings. I suspect you are prone to Taqqiya and I am not surprised!

I know that as usual, you wouldn't answer these questions because it betrays your shallowness
1. Is morality objective or subjective?
2. What is the standard of morality for Atheists?
3. Is sex before marriage between consenting adults moral or immoral?

If you cannot justly and truthfully answer these questions, your comments are at best ramblings of empty barrels![/s]

Everyone has aired his/her opinion and is right in their own manner..If I must marry an atheist it's either she converts me or I convert her..but at the end I think love covers all and the children will still be okay..If you take a look at some pastors children eh..you will understand that it's not by being Christian but it's by having a plain heart and doing good..

lilvicky68, I am going to let you be the teacher and I the student who has learnt that my opinion has been aired. Thank you.

True Christians are not immoral!

Is it not immoral to bear false witness, shadeyinka? Is it not false witness to mischaracterise the op and his wife as you did in this thread?

Oh. I get it. You are not a Christian, or you would not have acted immorally!

Your lack of knowledge is astounding. Your lack of desire to learn is more troubling. Like a typical believer, becoming a child is as difficult for you as it is for a camel to enter the eye of a needle.

Do you understand the significance of the following?

9 The Samaritan woman said to him, “You are a Jew and I am a Samaritan woman. How can you ask me for a drink?” (For Jews do not associate with Samaritans.)

10 Jesus answered her, “If you knew the gift of God and who it is that asks you for a drink, you would have asked him and he would have given you living water.”
John 4:9-10 New International Version (NIV)

Do you at all know what the following is demanding you do?

43 “You have heard that it was said, ‘Love your neighbor and hate your enemy.’ 44 But I tell you, love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you, 45 that you may be children of your Father in heaven. He causes his sun to rise on the evil and the good, and sends rain on the righteous and the unrighteous. 46 If you love those who love you, what reward will you get? Are not even the tax collectors doing that? 47 And if you greet only your own people, what are you doing more than others? Do not even pagans do that? 48 Be perfect, therefore, as your heavenly Father is perfect.
Matthew 5:43-48 New International Version (NIV)

Hmmm! good evening ma/sir. So I'm curious and really want to know.
1) Is FLESH just a mere word pointing us to human activity or a power behind such human activity? pls I want to know.

The op referred to it as "sin(FLESH)", so it is safe to assume more than just the mere physical flesh is meant. But perhaps let us see it as that which motivates us humans to do the evil we do and be sinful.

Kingdomtruth:
2) Do you mean that when we ask, seek, knock, with all our hearts, souls, minds and beings we can understand the word of God and eventually set ourselves free by ourselves without the GRACE of God? pls I need answer...thanks.

"Without the GRACE", lol.

Imagine all the effort done by the so many people who laboured through the centuries to put the so called Word of God into your hands so you can read it. Did you deserve it or it is not by Grace that they laboured on your behalf?

And now tell me if it is not your duty, after all the work they have done to put the Word of God in your hands, for you to try with all your heart and might and soul and being to understand it so that by the Grace of God you may be free from sin?

God knew that: no human activity(ies) would suffice to be able to set us free from sin(FLESH).

Actually, I would say God wanted us to learn from human activity so God made the Word Flesh and sent God's Begotten Son to live amongst us to teach us the perfect human way to live, but we crucify Christ everyday and refuse to learn.

If we ask and seek and knock with all our hearts and soul and minds and being until we understand the Word, we will set ourselves free from sin.

I haven't called Atheists immoral but by Christian standard they are nothing less than godless fools with no iota of Godliness!
If this statement above is wrong, challenge it!

Why should I marry someone with a defective spiritual DNA?

Why does satan want to pollute the Christian family?

No one is telling you whom you should marry. Op simply opened a thread about his own marriage and uncharitable you jumped in with your ignorance to thrash it and him with falsehoods and lies.

In my own opinion, which I am certain you will not agree with, you are the polluter of minds here, because it is very obvious to anyone who can see whom the "godless fools with no iota of Godliness" is here.

Ask yourself this. If what you do is against what Jesus Christ Himself commanded, why do you cling to it? Can you be of Jesus Christ in your disobedience?

Religion has blinded you all so much so that it occupied a seat even greater than that supposedly occupied by Jesus Christ in your hearts.

eomajeh:
most of you are saying "atheist + christian = SHOULD NOT" because of the children.

Does that mean that you must marry one from your faith to make the indoctrination of your children easy.

From my analogy of rice and beans. I'll not push my children to like rice because i like rice, neither will i stop them from liking beans because i don't like beans. The analogy of rice and beans may be too simplistic, but it just show that it is a matter of taste and preference.

No, your analogy is not simplistic at all! It is in fact spot on and is the type of analogy Christ himself will use, to the point that I am tempted to beg you not to bother defending yourself because Christ has already defended you, as will I also.

Those who understand their Bible will see you as the Samaritan whom Christ said Christians should emulate, while some of the so called Christians here sound like the Pharisee who is grateful they do not collect tax and whom Christ said will gnash their teeth for their lordism.

They value the ignorant beliefs in their heads so much that they will behave like the Levite and the Priest and forget the fruits they are meant to produce. And they think God gives a fuq about the crap in their heads than the relationships they have with their fellow human beings as if it can be better said that inasmuch as they have done to those here whom they see, the Father they see not is pleased.

With your rice and beans you teach your children to do Christ's will than most here can possibly imagine, for rather than develop the minds of their own children, they destroy them with ignorant indoctrinations.

You are an atheist, you say, but I will claim the Spirit of Christ is within you, and I am certain that the more enlightened Christians will see that your Fruits are a Glory to the Father, for you Sir are obviously being immensely blessed, and will be a blessing sent by God to many here who will state so in this thread for all who have eyes to see.

Supply chain disruptions due to semiconductor shortages started dogging automakers and component makers late last year.

Then with impeccable timing in mid-February came the horrendous winter storm that rolled across a big part of the US and slammed into Texas, causing major blackouts for days, and other damage. Four semiconductor plants in Austin shut down; two of them, the Samsung plants, remain shut down to this day, pushing the chip shortage to the next level.

Automakers have announced plant shutdowns and production cuts because of the shortages of chips, components, and plastics, and damage to the assembly plants during the winter storm.

Politics › Re: Home Nigerians Detained – Senate Begs Saudi Arabia’s Government by budaatum: 11:28am On Mar 18, 2021

Nigeria on Thursday repatriated nearly 400 of its citizens stranded by the coronavirus pandemic for months in Saudi Arabia, flying them back to the capital Abuja, an aviation ministry official said.

The Nigerians were economic migrants stuck in Saudi Arabia after being caught up in the coronavirus restrictions and needed assistance returning home.

The repatriation came after one group made a video which circulated on social media showing them in squalid conditions and calling for help.

"Many of you travelled expecting to return at a particular time but COVID-19 came in, and during this period, movements were restricted and that is how many of you were stranded," aviation ministry official Bolaji Akinremi said.

"Many of you went in search of greener pasture -- jobs and different experiences, you are back home with an opportunity to start another life."

"If you can ask so many of us here, this is what they are going to tell you, maybe some will tell you worse than what I said", recounted Mustapha Zubairu.

"..those that entered with valid documents are not supposed to be treated like this, even those that entered with Umrah documents, because we are all human beings. But they gathered us as animals, they maltreat us", he said.

The group of a total of 800 Nigerians will be flown back between Thursday and Friday. The first group of 384 included 83 women and one infant.

The returnees were transported to a camp for Covid-19 screening and testing after which they will be quarantined for 14 days before reuniting with their families, officials said.

The United Nations said late last year that more than 2.7 million migrants who wished to return home have been stranded abroad because of restrictions put in place to fight the coronavirus pandemic.

Have you asked yourself how the Christian wife could marry an atheist who disrespects her enough to do all those things you mentioned?

Would you consider instead that you know not what you talk about?

The op mentioned rice and beans and I doubt either he or his wife will ridicule the others preference or tell their children to dislike the preference of the other.

shadeyinka:
I haven't said that Atheists can't be good nor have morals. My only point of argument is about the children.
1. Will the atheist husband teach the children about how to live for a God or teach the children that God is a mere fairy tale?
2. Will the Atheist husband keep his irreligious state a secret to his own children?
3. A Christian wife who expects the Atheist husband to do these two above for the sake of love for her is either stupidly naive, selfish or not born again. A Christian wife who doesn't care for the salvation of her children is like a brute animal.

Above all, love isn't the only requirement for a good marriage. Other values like spiritual compatibility, educational compatibility, trust etc matter greatly

Moreover, marriage is a yoke (connection together) of a man and his wife. A violation of the Scripture for the Christian woman.

2Cor 6:14-15:
"Be you not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for what fellowship has righteousness with unrighteousness? and what communion has light with darkness? And what concord has Christ with Belial? or what part has he that believes with an infidel?"
