It time to move on . If not he will use you until you have no more self respect and make youfeel worthless. It time that you accept that he will never change. If he did not do it year one he would not do it year seven. Count your loses move forward and make new beginnings. You deserve much better than all this nonsense.

A serious and boring man.

Sin alienates all from GOD. It by means of christ ransom death that we can be reconciled to god. in reality god do not need anything from man. but he is merciful desiring all to exercise faith in him and his son and he give them life forever .

Trinit trinity! What does the scripture prove about trinity? "us" meaning god and christ lik you and your friend. "in our image" christ is god image lik man is in god's image. doesnt mean their the same. lik the saying goes like father like son. are father and son same people , no just alike in their personalities mannerism attributes etc. . finished.

Trust your judgement. Your bf has not raise any doubts. Some people just do not want to see you happy cause they are not happy. Leave all those doubt alone it ruin a great relationship wish you will regret.

What goes up must come down. Gravity doesn't discriminate.

IT doesn't matter how many years. Marriage is forever. Get to know that person well and stop worrying about how long before I marry. How can you make decision to lifetime commitment in less than a year. Trust me if a guy really love they will do anything to keep you. Then again if you believe in divorce then forget it you can rush. For me two years before I start considering marriage.

Joagbaje:
There are several resusrections and several raptures or " catching ups".  After a resurrection , there will be a catching up to heaven (rapture).
when Jesus rose from the dead , he was caught up to heaven with David and all the saints of old. He will come for the church also at the rapture. The dead in Christ will be raised and raptured to heaven first. Then we that  are alive will be raptured to heaven also.

1 Thes. 4:16-17
    For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first: [17] Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord.

1 Cor. 15:22-24
    For as in Adam all die, even so in Christ shall all be made alive. [23] But every man in his own order: Christ the firstfruits; afterward they that are Christ's at his coming. [24] Then cometh the end, when he shall have delivered up the kingdom to God, even the Father; when he shall have put down all rule and all authority and power.

At the rapture, we will be in heaven for 7 years while those left on the earth will  be in[b] 7[/b] years period of tribulation. At the end of the seven years tribulation, we will come back to the earth with christ to fight for israel and deliver them from their enemy( anti christ). Then there will be a period of 1000 years of peace on earth. We the saints will reign with Christ onthe earth.After this, the devil who had been thrown into bottomless pit for 1000 years will be released for a short period again on the earth, he will go out to decieve some more people and this will lead to the final battle.of Gog and Maggog. All evil will finally end. There will be a new heaven and new earth. We and God  will finally dwell forever in the new earth.

Rev. 20:6-8
    Blessed and holy is he that hath part in the first resurrection: on such the second death hath no power, but they shall be priests of God and of Christ, and shall reign with him a thousand years. [7] And when the thousand years are expired, Satan shall be loosed out of his prison, [8] And shall go out to deceive the nations which are in the four quarters of the earth, Gog and Magog, to gather them together to battle: the number of whom is as the sand of the sea.

Ahhhhgggg! Seven? How did you come up with that number? Why not 10 or 1000?

Am confused? So we would live both heaven and earth.

@joagbage

Interesting reply

You are partially correct, We shall dwell on the earth forever, but we will get to heaven first. before we finally come back to dwell on the earth forever.

I have never heard about going to heaven then going back to earth. Sure you did not make that up? why must we go to heaven if we can live here?


At the close of the age, when all evil has been put down. There will be a new heaven  and a new earth, where we and God will dwell forever.

[i]Isn't the new earth where righteous people will dwell? And new heaven God;s heavenly government? From what I understand.

Forever

So if all good people will go to heaven, then the earth will not be Inhabited forever.

Revelation 14:1-5 says only a few will go to heaven, as smallman quoted.

Heck if the pastor get a jet can I at least have a car?

@luap

A family that prays together (worships together, prays to the same god together), stays together

@jaidey what i am trying to say just you see your dad and yourself as one as in same authority, whatever. That how God and jesus are one in that sense not that they are the same person.

If the each of the couples beliefs are total opposites there is no way they can sustain a marriage. It more than tolerance and acceptance it also about making changes be willing to bend and make compromises. And many are not willing to make compromises on their faith.

@jaidey. If you have the same personality qualities etc. like your father would it not be like you and your father are one? Because any one that sees you or knows you will say you are just like your father as if you were him.

Why not? Did she climb on top of herself and get pregnant? Does he want to deal with her complaining in addition to her already raging hormones? Will he like to get his meals on time?It only right especially being limited in the things she can do.

Can I marry a guy that drinks
Yes, if it is in moderation.

Can i marry a guy that smokes?
Heck no. i don't find black lips and yellow teeth attractive.

It very relevant. The Old Testaments might seem outdated. But the old saying goes "Study the past if you would define the future" It the most accurate "history book"

@matin

You right Christmas actually dates back to an ancient Roman celebration of the sun-god, I did the research. So I guess celebrating Christmas would be like eating perfectly good food out of a trash can. It mixing something that holy with something unclean. Something to think about.

Reason #11

When Jesus prayed for God to give him strength (right before he was about to die), he wasn't praying to himself for strength. Why will he need to do that if he is the "Almighty" God.

Reason 12
After Jesus baptism God said "This is my SON my beloved ." Can a son be the father too?

Shall I go on?

Food for thought: If all good people go to heaven what happen to the earth?

1. God original purpose for the earth was for it to be cultivated and multiplied. And Adam and Eve were given this responsibility. And as long as they did so and were obedient they will live forever on earth. There reward was not heaven.

2. We pray let your will take place on earth as in heaven, isn't that "will" the original purpose for the earth

3. Psalms 37:11,29-Both speaks about inheriting and possessing the land. Is this land "earth".

4. David, who I believe was a "good" person did not go to heaven- Act 2:34. Where did he go?

5. What is meant by there be a "new heaven" and "new earth"

6. The earth was not created in vain but to be inhabited-Isaiah 45:18. Inhabited forever or for a short period of time?

This topic puzzles and intrigues me cause many talk about going to heaven yet it rarely discuss what happens to the earth. Did God simply created as a home for humans until afterlife? This has got me thinking and wondering do all good people go to heaven or what?

I am truly curious on how you all view this. Please share your views and interpretations.

A mans pride will kill him. What women that own house will move in with a man that rents an apartment? Either the man moves in with her and swallow the pill called pride. Or together go get a house.

Blind

In the US women are giving ice chips during labor. It help with sensory, pain i am not sure. So really dont think neither have i heard of any negative effect of cold water during pregnancy.

Pizza with all kinds of topping. Meats vegetables and pineapple. I think you call that mixed pizza. LOL.

Didnt Jesus kiss? But i believe you more worried about unmarried couple kissing. There nothing wrong with it. But before trying to be affectionate you need to discuss with your partner about boundaries. How far should you two take it? Your discussion should frank and both must reach a mutual agreement. Try to avoid situation that will cause the two of you to cross boundaries set.like being alone. Kissing a sin? Naw far from it.

No need to. I look half my age. I look forward to the future. Yep there something that i wish I did when i was younger. But I cant change the past but I can change the direction I am heading by making smart decision learning from my mistakes and being courageous by trying new things and not letting anybody get in my way. It never to too late to change. Press forward not backwards.

I dont think it should be abolished. It apart of culture. On the other hand it need to be regulated. It should be a token of appreciation to the girls parents for raising a well respected girl and appreciation from the man to the parents(family) for giving him their blessing to marry their daughter and allowing her to be apart of his family. But i think it has become atrocious when the bride price is negotiated on criterias such as whether the girl went to school or come from a rich background, or if she lighter skinned(bride price is a lot higher) or dark skinned, physical features etc, A bride is not bought.

Neither. Both are permanent.

Why is it difficult to get a virgin as a husband?
