@5solas

sadly, but righteously (because GOD is The Righteous Judge), they die and cease to be after the judgment / wrath of GOD, as a result of said judgment / wrath for sin.

To GOD be all the glory.

All human beings (virtually all being born physically alive), are born spiritually dead since the fall of man from Adam.  The Lord JESUS CHRIST, who came to pay for the sins of many to save them from death/righteous wrath of GOD for sin, says,  "The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly." - John 10:10.  That life is eternal life in our soul/spirit existence. A truly saved person, when he/she physically dies goes to be with The Lord JESUS CHRIST immediately.

"Jesus said unto her, I am the resurrection, and the life: he that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live: And whosoever liveth and believeth in me shall never die. Believest thou this?" - John 11:25-27

"We are confident, I say, and willing rather to be absent from the body, and to be present with the Lord" - 2 Corinthians 5:8

@ecenter

numbers in the holy Bible have spiritual meanings, GOD knows all things.

with re: to the 144,000, 12 = completeness, 12 x 12 = 144, therefore, a complete fulness of the number of people (the spiritual nation of GOD, The Israel / Church of GOD in CHRIST JESUS The Lord) whom GOD, The Lord JESUS CHRIST, will mercifully save from humanity shall be saved and dwell with HIM for evermore. Praise The Lord!

"All that the Father giveth me shall come to me; and him that cometh to me I will in no wise cast out." - John 6:37

@street-soldier,

humbly, but truly and assertively, 

we pray in the prayer that The Lord JESUS CHRIST teaches us, that GOD, our FATHER should "forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us."  GOD also teaches and commands that we should forgive everyone who offends us infinitely,  "Then came Peter to him, and said, Lord, how oft shall my brother sin against me, and I forgive him? till seven times? Jesus saith unto him, I say not unto thee, Until seven times: but, Until seventy times seven." - Matthew 18:21-23.  So forgive, if you feel you have been offended.

Having stated that, i tell you frankly, as intended in my first response,  we all have no business in physically intimate relationships outside of marriage (fornication),  i tell you, it comes with physical (like diseases from promiscuity, and stress, financial trouble, drama, etc),  and more important, spiritual consequences before GOD, as it is sin. We should seek GOD first, by HIS grace and mercy alone,

"But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you." -Matthew 6:33

and if GOD be so pleased to bless you with a wife, HE will.

"Whoso findeth a wife findeth a good thing, and obtaineth favour of the LORD." - Proverbs 18:22

I note you said "Hence i gave my all to this present relationship: my time, my money,so much attention even at detriment of my work, just to make this relationship work!"

as the holy word of GOD commands, by HIS grace,  seek GOD first and according to the perfect will of GOD, all will follow and you will find that you won't be wasting your money on that which does not profit, for trust in man is useless, for people will fail you, but GOD is Faithful and True and does not fail.

"Thus saith the LORD; Cursed be the man that trusteth in man, and maketh flesh his arm, and whose heart departeth from the LORD." -Jeremiah 17:5

The number one commandment is this - "And thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind, and with all thy strength: this is the first commandment." - Mark 12:30

So friend, please, by HIS grace seek GOD first.  Read your Bible earnestly and "pray without ceasing" (1 Thess 5:17).  May The Lord GOD bless you and all who read.

neither one of you has any business even looking at another person lustfully, not to mention engaging in inappropriate conversation, which often leads to temptation, and then more sin and problems, steer clear, both.

----------------------
I strongly suggest that you read the holy Bible and pray together, as often as possible

Proverbs 18:22
"Whoso findeth a wife findeth a good thing, and obtaineth favour of the LORD."

Ephesians 5:21-26
"Submitting yourselves one to another in the fear of God. Wives, submit yourselves unto your own husbands, as unto the Lord. For the husband is the head of the wife, even as Christ is the head of the church: and he is the saviour of the body. Therefore as the church is subject unto Christ, so let the wives be to their own husbands in every thing. Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself for it; That he might sanctify and cleanse it with the washing of water by the word,"

Colossians 3:18-20
"Wives, submit yourselves unto your own husbands, as it is fit in the Lord. Husbands, love your wives, and be not bitter against them. Children, obey your parents in all things: for this is well pleasing unto the Lord. "

1 Peter 3:1-4
"Likewise, ye wives, be in subjection to your own husbands; that, if any obey not the word, they also may without the word be won by the conversation of the wives; While they behold your chaste conversation coupled with fear. Whose adorning let it not be that outward adorning of plaiting the hair, and of wearing of gold, or of putting on of apparel; But let it be the hidden man of the heart, in that which is not corruptible, even the ornament of a meek and quiet spirit, which is in the sight of God of great price."

Matthew 19:6
"Wherefore they are no more twain, but one flesh. What therefore God hath joined together, let not man put asunder. "

Malachi 2:16
"For the LORD, the God of Israel, saith that he hateth putting away: for one covereth violence with his garment, saith the LORD of hosts: therefore take heed to your spirit, that ye deal not treacherously. " [putting away is divorce, The LORD hates it]

"Marriage is honourable in all, and the bed undefiled: but whoremongers and adulterers God will judge." - Hebrews 13:4

"But whoso committeth adultery with a woman lacketh understanding: he that doeth it destroyeth his own soul. A wound and dishonour shall he get; and his reproach shall not be wiped away." - Proverbs 6: 32-33

"Flee fornication. Every sin that a man doeth is without the body; but he that committeth fornication sinneth against his own body." - 1 Corinthians 6:18

1 Corinthians 7
"[b]Now concerning the things whereof ye wrote unto me: It is good for a man not to touch a woman. Nevertheless, to avoid fornication, let every man have his own wife, and let every woman have her own husband. Let the husband render unto the wife due benevolence: and likewise also the wife unto the husband. The wife hath not power of her own body, but the husband: and likewise also the husband hath not power of his own body, but the wife. Defraud ye not one the other, except it be with consent for a time, that ye may give yourselves to fasting and prayer; and come together again, that Satan tempt you not for your incontinency.
But I speak this by permission, and not of commandment. For I would that all men were even as I myself. But every man hath his proper gift of God, one after this manner, and another after that. I say therefore to the unmarried and widows, it is good for them if they abide even as I. But if they cannot contain, let them marry: for it is better to marry than to burn. And unto the married I command, yet not I, but the Lord, Let not the wife depart from her husband: But and if she depart, let her remain unmarried or be reconciled to her husband: and let not the husband put away his wife. But to the rest speak I, not the Lord: If any brother hath a wife that believeth not, and she be pleased to dwell with him, let him not put her away. And the woman which hath an husband that believeth not, and if he be pleased to dwell with her, let her not leave him. For the unbelieving husband is sanctified by the wife, and the unbelieving wife is sanctified by the husband: else were your children unclean; but now are they holy. But if the unbelieving depart, let him depart. A brother or a sister is not under bondage in such cases: but God hath called us to peace. For what knowest thou, O wife, whether thou shalt save thy husband? or how knowest thou, O man, whether thou shalt save thy wife?[/b]"

Proverbs 5:17-19
"Let them be only thine own, and not strangers' with thee. Let thy fountain be blessed: and rejoice with the wife of thy youth. Let her be as the loving hind and pleasant roe; let her bosoms satisfy thee at all times; and be thou ravished always with her love."

@PA1982,

The holy Bible, GOD's word, is the only source of our authority, mercifully, The Lord has provided so much information (which only we can understand if/when HE opens our eyes to see). Re: timeline, etc, i will give you an illustration beginning from adam, the first man, who lived to be 930 years old,

"This is the book of the generations of Adam. In the day that God created man, in the likeness of God made he him; Male and female created he them; and blessed them, and called their name Adam, in the day when they were created. And Adam lived an hundred and thirty years, and begat a son in his own likeness, and after his image; and called his name Seth: And the days of Adam after he had begotten Seth were eight hundred years: and he begat sons and daughters: And all the days that Adam lived were nine hundred and thirty years: and he died. And Seth lived an hundred and five years, and begat Enos: And Seth lived after he begat Enos eight hundred and seven years, and begat sons and daughters: And all the days of Seth were nine hundred and twelve years: and he died. And Enos lived ninety years, and begat Cainan: And Enos lived after he begat Cainan eight hundred and fifteen years, and begat sons and daughters: And all the days of Enos were nine hundred and five years: and he died." -Genesis 5:1-11,

the end of this chapter stops @ Noah and his sons, and Noah's father before him, Lamech (which is the time of the great flood), which occurred on the 17th day of the second month of that year (May 21 according to our current calendar)

"And Lamech lived an hundred eighty and two years, and begat a son: And he called his name Noah, saying, This same shall comfort us concerning our work and toil of our hands, because of the ground which the LORD hath cursed. And Lamech lived after he begat Noah five hundred ninety and five years, and begat sons and daughters: And all the days of Lamech were seven hundred seventy and seven years: and he died. And Noah was five hundred years old: and Noah begat Shem, Ham, and Japheth." - Genesis 5:28-32

then, Gen 7:
"And Noah was six hundred years old when the flood of waters was upon the earth." - Genesis 7:6

"In the six hundredth year of Noah's life, in the second month, the seventeenth day of the month, the same day were all the fountains of the great deep broken up, and the windows of heaven were opened." - Genesis 7:11

Abram (Abraham) came from Noah's line (specifically, Shem, I believe), and then Abraham begat Isaac, then he Jacob (Israel) and Joseph, the nation of Israel spent 430 years of captivity / slavery in Egypt until GOD brought them out with a mighty Hand and an outstretched arm, , they had judges and then kings, whose number of years of their individual reigns over Israel and/or Judah were all chronicled (1 Kings, 2 Kings, 1 Chronicles, 2 Chronicles, etc),

So, my point is, GOD has mercifully provided all this information in HIS holy word, The Bible, re: the timeline of the history of this world, up until it's very end, the end of the age. The numbers are there, we see only by HIS grace and mercy and perfect will.

To GOD be all glory.

friend,

fornication is grievous sin, like all sin, before GOD and punishable, but for the grace and mercy of GOD by redemption through the sacrifice of The Lord JESUS CHRIST, GOD (“For the wages of sin [is] death; but the gift of GOD [is] eternal life through JESUS CHRIST our Lord.”)  - Rom 6:23.  If we are in The Lord JESUS by HIS mercy, we, by The Holy Spirit of Truth and Grace will no longer continue in sin with impunity, and are clothed with GOD's righteousness and enabled by HIM not to engage in such.  Below are a few verses re: what GOD says about fornication

“Meats for the belly, and the belly for meats: but GOD shall destroy both it and Them. Now the body is not for fornication, but for the Lord; and the Lord for the body.”- 1 Corinthians 6:13

"For he that soweth to his flesh shall of the flesh reap corruption; but he That soweth to the spirit shall of the spirit reap life everlasting." - Gal 6:8 

"For if ye live after the flesh, ye shall die: but if ye through the Spirit do mortify the deeds of the body, ye shall live." - Rom 8:13

“Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these; Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness, Idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath, strife, seditions, heresies, Envyings, murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like: of the which I tell you before, as I have also told you in time past, that they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God. But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, Meekness, temperance: against such there is no law.” Galatians 5:19-23

"Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind, Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God." - 1 Corinthians 6:9-10

"Now concerning the things whereof ye wrote unto me: It is good for a man not to touch a woman. Nevertheless, to avoid fornication, let every man have his own wife, and let every woman have her own husband. Let the husband render unto the wife due benevolence: and likewise also the wife unto the husband." -1 Corinthians 7:1-3

“Marriage is honourable in all, and the bed undefiled: but whoremongers and adulterers God will judge.” - Hebrews 13:4
--------
“All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: That the man of God may be perfect, thoroughly furnished unto all good works.” -2 Timothy 3:16-17

"The words of the LORD are pure words: as silver tried in a furnace of earth, purified seven times." - Psalm 12:6

"Every word of God is pure: he is a shield unto them that put their trust in him. Add thou not unto his words, lest he reprove thee, and thou be found a liar." - Proverbs 30:5-6

“All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: That the man of God may be perfect, thoroughly furnished unto all good works.” -2 Timothy 3:16-17 -

"For I testify unto every man that heareth the words of the prophecy of this book, If any man shall add unto these things, God shall add unto him the plagues that are written in this book: And if any man shall take away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God shall take away his part out of the book of life, and out of the holy city, and from the things which are written in this book." - Revelation 22:18-19

and since the completion of the holy Bible, GOD's infallible word, there is no additional prophecy outside of the Bible, it absolutely cannot be trusted as GOD's word. Speaking the word of GOD, by HIS grace, from the holy Bible, faithfully is prophecy.

"And I fell at his feet to worship him. And he said unto me, See thou do it not: I am thy fellowservant, and of thy brethren that have the testimony of Jesus: worship God: for the testimony of Jesus is the spirit of prophecy."- Revelation 19:10

"And, behold, I come quickly; and my reward is with me, to give every man according as his work shall be." - Revelation 22:12

“For by thy words thou shalt be justified, and by thy words thou shalt be condemned.”- Matt 12:37

“Meats for the belly, and the belly for meats: but GOD shall destroy both it and Them. Now the body is not for fornication, but for the Lord; and the Lord for the body.”- 1 Corinthians 6:13

"For he that soweth to his flesh shall of the flesh reap corruption; but he That soweth to the spirit shall of the spirit reap life everlasting." - gal 6:8 

"For if ye live after the flesh, ye shall die: but if ye through the Spirit do mortify the deeds of the body, ye shall live." - Rom 8:13

"Flee also youthful lusts: but follow righteousness, faith, charity, peace, with them that call on the Lord out of a pure heart." - 2 Timothy 2:22

Pls, "Let GOD be magnified"

humbly, and from all indications, (The Lord GOD knows all things), they were likely written between 1007 B.C. and 967 B.C., likely no later than 931 B.C.

humbly,

*when someone, a "good doer", that is in actuality, a child of GOD, GOD's saint, for whom The Lord JESUS CHRIST made payment for his / her sins dies, is clothed with GOD's Righteousness, they immediately go to be with GOD, The Lord JESUS CHRIST in Heaven forever because they now have eternal life in their soul existence, by the mercy, grace and power of GOD -
"Jesus said unto her, I am the resurrection, and the life: he that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live: And whosoever liveth and believeth in me shall never die. Believest thou this?" - John 11:25-27

"Therefore we are always confident, knowing that, whilst we are at home in the body, we are absent from the Lord: (For we walk by faith, not by sight We are confident, I say, and willing rather to be absent from the body, and to be present with the Lord." - 2 Corinthians 5:6-8

**when someone, a "good doer" who is still alive in the body at the time of the rapture when The Lord JESUS CHRIST returns,  they will receive their new spiritual bodies, instantly and forever dwell with the Lord JESUS CHRIST in the new heavens and the new earth -

"Behold, I shew you a mystery; We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed, In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed. For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality. So when this corruptible shall have put on incorruption, and this mortal shall have put on immortality, then shall be brought to pass the saying that is written, Death is swallowed up in victory." - 1 Corinthians 15:51-54
---------
***when someone, a truly unsaved person, an unbeliever who remains in his/her sins dies,  at some point in time after death (and only GOD knows precisely when and how, because GOD knows all things and HE is Judge HIMSELF and GOD alone, Amen), they are judged, perish and will never again live  “And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment”: - Heb 9:27

anyone left behind after the rapture will experience the righteous wrath of GOD for sin -
"And to you who are troubled rest with us, when the Lord Jesus shall be revealed from heaven with his mighty angels, In flaming fire taking vengeance on them that know not God, and that obey not the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ: Who shall be punished with everlasting destruction from the presence of the Lord, and from the glory of his power;" - 2 Thessalonians 1:7-9

“And they shall go into the holes of the rocks, and into the caves of the earth, for fear of the LORD, and for the glory of his majesty, when he ariseth to shake terribly the earth.” -Isaiah 2:19
-----------
know always, in addition to all the above, which is truth, that,

“The Lord [is] gracious, and full of compassion; slow to anger, And of great mercy.” - Psalm145:8
"The LORD is righteous in all his ways, and holy in all his works." - Psalm 145:17
"He is the Rock, his work is perfect: for all his ways are judgment: a God of truth and without iniquity, just and right is he." -Deuteronomy 32:4
"As for God, his way is perfect; the word of the LORD is tried: he is a buckler to all them that trust in him." 2 Samuel 22:31

falling backward is an imitation and/or attempt to simulate the ability to bring judgment and/or call down fire from Heaven in order to destroy!  Only GOD, YAHWEH, The Lord JESUS CHRIST can bring that kind of judgment, because GOD is GOD alone, and HIMSELF is The Righteous Judge.  (Sodom and Gomorrah were an example - "Then the LORD rained upon Sodom and upon Gomorrah brimstone and fire from the LORD out of heaven;" Genesis 19:24, 2 Peter 2:6; also, GOD through the prophet Elijah - "Then the king sent unto him a captain of fifty with his fifty. And he went up to him: and, behold, he sat on the top of an hill. And he spake unto him, Thou man of God, the king hath said, Come down. And Elijah answered and said to the captain of fifty, If I be a man of God, then let fire come down from heaven, and consume thee and thy fifty. And there came down fire from heaven, and consumed him and his fifty." - 2 Kings 1:9-10).  

What we see in churches today all over the world is not GOD's activity, but attempted simulation of GOD's power by the enemy, disguised as something "good", primarily because it occurs in connection with GOD's house / heritage, by the which many are deceived.

"Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition; Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God." - 2 Thessalonians 2:3-4

This is the link,  from between the time of the last supper of The Lord JESUS CHRIST with HIS apostles to the time of HIS tribulation and arrest in the garden of Gethsemane,  where the devil, the "son of perdition", who had entered into Judas Iscariot, was present and per the above holy Scripture (- 2 Thessalonians 2:3-4), simulates in the churches.

"And the chief priests and scribes sought how they might kill him; for they feared the people. Then entered Satan into Judas surnamed Iscariot, being of the number of the twelve. And he went his way, and communed with the chief priests and captains, how he might betray him unto them." - Luke 22:2-4

"When Jesus had spoken these words, he went forth with his disciples over the brook Cedron, where was a garden, into the which he entered, and his disciples. And Judas also, which betrayed him, knew the place: for Jesus ofttimes resorted thither with his disciples. Judas then, having received a band of men and officers from the chief priests and Pharisees, cometh thither with lanterns and torches and weapons. Jesus therefore, knowing all things that should come upon him, went forth, and said unto them, Whom seek ye? They answered him, Jesus of Nazareth. Jesus saith unto them, I am he. And Judas also, which betrayed him, stood with them. As soon then as he had said unto them, I am he, they went backward, and fell to the ground." - John 18:1-6

Those that came to arrest The Lord JESUS CHRIST, The Word of GOD, Alpha and Omega,  fell backward as a real show of The Lord JESUS CHRIST's power to destroy them if HE wanted to, but their destruction was not in GOD's will or plan, as HE had to suffer these things for the sins of those for whom HE came to save ("Then said Jesus unto Peter, Put up thy sword into the sheath: the cup which my Father hath given me, shall I not drink it?" - John 18:11, "Thinkest thou that I cannot now pray to my Father, and he shall presently give me more than twelve legions of angels?" - Matthew 26:53 also John 18:36)

This copying of the power of GOD to bring judgment by reigning down fire from Heaven is what we see in the churches, sadly, many are deceived thereby.  Know though, at all times, that YAHWEH reigns!

"And he exerciseth all the power of the first beast before him, and causeth the earth and them which dwell therein to worship the first beast, whose deadly wound was healed. And he doeth great wonders, so that he maketh fire come down from heaven on the earth in the sight of men, And deceiveth them that dwell on the earth by the means of those miracles which he had power to do in the sight of the beast; saying to them that dwell on the earth, that they should make an image to the beast, which had the wound by a sword, and did live." - Revelation 13:12-14

"And I saw three unclean spirits like frogs come out of the mouth of the dragon, and out of the mouth of the beast, and out of the mouth of the false prophet. For they are the spirits of devils, working miracles, which go forth unto the kings of the earth and of the whole world, to gather them to the battle of that great day of God Almighty." - Revelation 16:13-14

"For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect." Matthew 24:24

"Even him, whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders," - 2 Thessalonians 2:9 ("Even him" is a reference to the Lord JESUS CHRIST, whose return is after all these things are accomplished to destroy the devil and all enemies of GOD, including death and hell -2 Thessalonians 2:,

"And I saw the beast, and the kings of the earth, and their armies, gathered together to make war against him that sat on the horse, and against his army. And the beast was taken, and with him the false prophet that wrought miracles before him, with which he deceived them that had received the mark of the beast, and them that worshipped his image. These both were cast alive into a lake of fire burning with brimstone. And the remnant were slain with the sword of him that sat upon the horse, which sword proceeded out of his mouth: and all the fowls were filled with their flesh." - Revelation 19:19-21

Prosperity gospels are indicative of the status of churches all over the world at this time in history, in these very last days (that is, under the righteous judgment of GOD for spiritual harlotry),

"For the time is come that judgment must begin at the house of God: and if it first begin at us, what shall the end be of them that obey not the gospel of God?" - 1 Peter 4:17

"Better is little with the fear of the LORD than great treasure and trouble therewith." - Proverbs 15:16

friend,

“All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: That the man of God may be perfect, thoroughly furnished unto all good works.” -2 Timothy 3:16-17

"For the prophecy came not in old time by the will of man: but holy men of God spake as they were moved by the Holy Ghost." - 2 Peter 1:21

"Now these be the last words of David. David the son of Jesse said, and the man who was raised up on high, the anointed of the God of Jacob, and the sweet psalmist of Israel, said, The Spirit of the LORD spake by me, and his word was in my tongue. The God of Israel said, the Rock of Israel spake to me, He that ruleth over men must be just, ruling in the fear of God." - 2 Samuel 23:1-6

"Thus David the son of Jesse reigned over all Israel. And the time that he reigned over Israel was forty years; seven years reigned he in Hebron, and thirty and three years reigned he in Jerusalem. And he died in a good old age, full of days, riches, and honour: and Solomon his son reigned in his stead. Now the acts of David the king, first and last, behold, they are written in the book of Samuel the seer, and in the book of Nathan the prophet, and in the book of Gad the seer, With all his reign and his might, and the times that went over him, and over Israel, and over all the kingdoms of the countries." - 1 Chronicles 29:26-30

“Bless the LORD, O my soul. O LORD my God, thou art very great; thou art clothed with honour and majesty. Who coverest thyself with light as with a garment: who stretchest out the heavens like a curtain: Who layeth the beams of his chambers in the waters: who maketh the clouds his chariot: who walketh upon the wings of the wind:” - Psalm 104:1-3

“Which shaketh the earth out of her place, and the pillars thereof tremble. Which commandeth the sun, and it riseth not; and sealeth up the stars. Which alone spreadeth out the heavens, and treadeth upon the waves of the sea. Which maketh Arcturus, Orion, and Pleiades, and the chambers of the south. Which doeth great things past finding out; yea, and wonders without number.” - Job 9:6-10

“The waters are hid as with a stone, and the face of the deep is frozen. Canst thou bind the sweet influences of Pleiades, or loose the bands of Orion? Canst thou bring forth Mazzaroth in his season? or canst thou guide Arcturus with his sons?” - Job 38:30-32

“Ye who turn judgment to wormwood, and leave off righteousness in the earth, Seek him that maketh the seven stars and Orion, and turneth the shadow of death into the morning, and maketh the day dark with night: that calleth for the waters of the sea, and poureth them out upon the face of the earth: The LORD is his name:” - Amos 5:8-9

“Thus saith the LORD, The heaven is my throne, and the earth is my footstool: where is the house that ye build unto me? and where is the place of my rest? For all those things hath mine hand made, and all those things have been, saith the LORD: but to this man will I look, even to him that is poor and of a contrite spirit, and trembleth at my word. He that killeth an ox is as if he slew a man; he that sacrificeth a lamb, as if he cut off a dog's neck; he that offereth an oblation, as if he offered swine's blood; he that burneth incense, as if he blessed an idol. Yea, they have chosen their own ways, and their soul delighteth in their abominations.” - Isaiah 66:1-3

“I am the LORD, and there is none else, there is no God beside me: I girded thee, though thou hast not known me: That they may know from the rising of the sun, and from the west, that there is none beside me. I am the LORD, and there is none else.” - Isaiah 45:5-6

“Remember the former things of old: for I am God, and there is none else; I am God, and there is none like me, Declaring the end from the beginning, and from ancient times the things that are not yet done, saying, My counsel shall stand, and I will do all my pleasure:” - Isaiah 46:9-10

“I am the LORD, and there is none else, there is no God beside me: I girded thee, though thou hast not known me: That they may know from the rising of the sun, and from the west, that there is none beside me. I am the LORD, and there is none else. I form the light, and create darkness: I make peace, and create evil: I the LORD do all these things.” - Isaiah 45:5-7

“Hearken unto me, O Jacob and Israel, my called; I am he; I am the first, I also am the last. Mine hand also hath laid the foundation of the earth, and my right hand hath spanned the heavens: when I call unto them, they stand up together.” - Isaiah 48:12-14

“Thus saith the LORD the King of Israel, and his redeemer the LORD of hosts; I am the first, and I am the last; and beside me there is no God. And who, as I, shall call, and shall declare it, and set it in order for me, since I appointed the ancient people? and the things that are coming, and shall come, let them shew unto them.” - Isaiah 44:6-7 (compare with Revelation 1:1-11, Revelation 1:17, Revelation 2:8, Revelation 22:13 –The Lord JESUS CHRIST, is the First and the Last)

That which will surely come…
“And the four and twenty elders, which sat before God on their seats, fell upon their faces, and worshipped God, Saying, We give thee thanks, O LORD God Almighty, which art, and wast, and art to come; because thou hast taken to thee thy great power, and hast reigned. And the nations were angry, and thy wrath is come, and the time of the dead, that they should be judged, and that thou shouldest give reward unto thy servants the prophets, and to the saints, and them that fear thy name, small and great; and shouldest destroy them which destroy the earth.” - Revelation 11:16-18

"The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance." - 2 Peter 3:9

The Lord JESUS CHRIST is Eternal GOD, The Son of The Living GOD, and made all things,

“For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace.” - Isaiah 9:6

"In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. The same was in the beginning with God. All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made." - John 1:1-3
"And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth." - John 1:14

"God, who at sundry times and in divers manners spake in time past unto the fathers by the prophets, Hath in these last days spoken unto us by his Son, whom he hath appointed heir of all things, by whom also he made the worlds; Who being the brightness of his glory, and the express image of his person, and upholding all things by the word of his power, when he had by himself purged our sins, sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high:" - Hebrews 1:1-3

"Who hath delivered us from the power of darkness, and hath translated us into the kingdom of his dear Son: In whom we have redemption through his blood, even the forgiveness of sins: Who is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of every creature: For by him were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: all things were created by him, and for him: And he is before all things, and by him all things consist." - Colossians 1:13-17

So, The Lord JESUS CHRIST, GOD, The Almighty, made all things,  angels included ( including the fallen ones who rebelled against HIM - "And he said unto them, I beheld Satan as lightning fall from heaven." - Luke 10:18 & "How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! how art thou cut down to the ground, which didst weaken the nations!" - Isaiah 14:12 & "Therefore rejoice, ye heavens, and ye that dwell in them. Woe to the inhabiters of the earth and of the sea! for the devil is come down unto you, having great wrath, because he knoweth that he hath but a short time." - Revelation 12:12)

you misunderstand. The number one priority for any human being is our relationship to GOD, our Maker / Creator, and because all have sinned, for ("there is none righteous, no not one, there is none that does good", so, our reconciliation back to HIM, HIS holy Eternal Majesty through HIMSELF in the person of our Lord JESUS CHRIST, should be, our number one priority /concern.

“For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of GOD;” - Rom 3:23
“For the wages of sin [is] death; but the gift of GOD [is] eternal life through JESUS CHRIST our Lord.” - Rom 6:23
“Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved.” - Acts 4:12
“So then faith [cometh] by hearing, and hearing by the word of GOD.” - Rom 10:17
----------
So, what i was suggesting to the original poster (prayforus) was that he, as his user name suggests, actually prays and GOD, who knows all things may answer according to HIS perfect will for him. The conclusion? GOD is the number one priority, all things may follow after, and re: male and female relationships, the righteous GOD says - "Marriage is honourable in all, and the bed undefiled: but whoremongers and adulterers God will judge.” - Hebrews 13:4

"Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God. And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus." - Philippians 4:6-7 (be careful = be anxious for nothing)
