75% of the path to marriage lies in the selection process. Now, there isn’t any scientific theory to this number it’s merely my opinion gathered from coaching so many people.

It is my belief that the big reason so many marriages don’t last isn’t because marriage is so hard or because people “change,” it’s more so because people don’t put enough effort into the selection process when choosing life partners. We are so hungry for the wedding that we forget about the marriage part, and we are so excited about posting it on Facebook that we forget we actually have to live it in real life.
let’s focus on a few reasons why your woman might be Ms. Wrong.

1) It’s always all about her
Selfishness in a relationship is like a disease that spreads and manifests itself into all areas of the relationship. It starts with her being selfish about her time and resources, next thing you know she is being selfish about sex, and before you know it your needs are never being met but all of hers are. If everything is all about her you may be with MS. WRONG!

2) She is never happy and shows no appreciation
You work hard everyday, give her everything she needs and wants, and you’ve even sacrificed your happiness for hers yet she STILL never seems happy. She always has an attitude about something and she never stops to just say “THANK YOU, I APPRECIATE YOU.” If this is your woman she might be MS. WRONG because eventually you will need her to be happy and you will need appreciation to encourage you to keep going.

3) She can’t get along well with anyone. Ever.
Have you found yourself losing a lot of friends and even having to distance yourself away from family because your lady just can’t seem to get along well with anyone? You dread going to friend and family cookouts because you know it won’t turn out well? Oh and for some reason it always seems to be someone else’s fault too. She keeps the drama going and you are always caught in the middle. If she doesn’t love you enough to get along with the people you care about most she may be MS. WRONG.

4) She is always passive aggressive and uses the silent treatment often.
Communication is the most important skill in a relationship so if her idea of communication is being passive aggressive and giving you the silent treatment every time something is wrong with her then run for the hills! If she says one thing and means another and either way you lose she may be MS. WRONG!

5) She shows no nurturing qualities
As men we like to be taken care of and nurtured the same way women like to be protected and made to feel secure. Furthermore if you want a family you will need someone with nurturing abilities. Sure she may be a great career woman but if you want a family and she doesn’t have a nurturing spirit that can benefit you and your future children she may just be MS. WRONG!

6) She doesn’t support any of your endeavors
If you are a dreamer and have many things that you love to do yet she takes no interest in any of them then she may not be the woman for you. You are going to need the support of your woman to accomplish the things you want to accomplish. She can’t be a passive participant because you are going to need her to care about you and your life and if she doesn’t do this she may be MS. WRONG!

7) She has no friends outside of you
If she decided to drop all of her friends just because of your relationship then don’t be surprised when she doesn’t want you spending time with your boys. We all know we need time with our boys so she needs to have some friends outside of you so she can do the same. A smothering relationship will eventually get old and you will grow distant. If she doesn’t have any friends she may be MS. WRONG!

She is insecure and distrusting
No one wants a nag for a mate! If you can’t step outside of the house without answering 21 questions or if you can’t leave your phone around without her needing to keep tabs on it then that tells you a lot. If she has no trust in you and you haven’t given her a reason to be distrustful then she may be MS. WRONG!
Sometimes as men we get so caught up in the physical and the sexual that we overlook the qualities and the substance. We like the attention we get from having the “trophy” on our arms, but we don’t have the foresight to see that eventually that attention will get old and we will be stuck with everything that’s underneath that beauty. If you think you are with MS. WRONG then marrying her is the last thing you want to do. CHOOSE WISELY MY FRIENDS!

Have you experienced any of these things with the women in your life?

So you saying the giving was done by Joseph (the levite) and Ananias. So all the sharing and feeding were proceeds from disposal of Joseph and Ananias property. Na wa for you o!

Acts 4:32-34 (NIV)
32 All the believers were one in heart and mind. No one claimed that any of their possessions was their own, but they shared everything they had. 33 With great power the apostles continued to testify to the resurrection of the Lord Jesus. And God’s grace was so powerfully at work in them all 34 that there were no needy persons among them. For from time to time those who owned land or houses sold them, brought the money from the sales



Well if they were performing less than a day after they believed, i wonder if they had time to receive teachings on giving. at the time, the focus of the apostles was preaching the resurrected Christ than teachings on Christian practices. Pastors today runs out of saliva teaching giving and yet no result Instead you are looking for ways to enforce standard.



Thought you said the giving was the one time transactions done by Joseph and Ananias

Zikkyy:

Read Acts 2 below:

Acts 2:41 (NIV)
41 Those who accepted his message were baptized, and about three thousand were added to their number that day.

Acts 2:42-47 (NIV)
42 They devoted themselves to the apostles’ teaching and to fellowship, to the breaking of bread and to prayer. 43 Everyone was filled with awe at the many wonders and signs performed by the apostles. 44 All the believers were together and had everything in common. 45 They sold property and possessions to give to anyone who had need. 46 Every day they continued to meet together in the temple courts. They broke bread in their homes and ate together with glad and sincere hearts, 47 praising God and enjoying the favor of all the people. And the Lord added to their number daily those who were being saved.

Notice the blue highlight (v.46), "ate together with glad and sincere hearts". Every they did was from the heart.

Reading verse 44-45, i don't see any name mentioned o! verse 47 says day old believers were involved as well. They did not have the NT yet they performed so beautifully. You can see you don't need standard.

Candour:

@the bolded is where man worship starts. See what Paul says

2Cor 1:24
'Not for that we have dominion over your faith, but are helpers of your joy: f[b]or by faith ye stand[/b]'

Even the great apostle knew he had no power over the lives of believers.He acknowledged that we stand by faith. Check his letters, you'll find plenty 'i beseech', 'i admonish', i exhort' which are all synonymous with pleading.there are very few places where he tried to stamp authority.

DLBC does not use gown for wedding and the bride should not receive anything from the groom during courtship(my younger sister's engagement was almost broken off by this in 2003).LFC and Christ Embassy allow gowns and buying of gifts for each other during courtship so which one is the standard approved by God?

Religious monsters are created when Children of God have to get directions on how to leave their lives from one 'infallible' MOG and that is a negation of grace my bro.

Zikkyy:

You are talking about baby christians/young believers, some of the believers in Acts 4 were day old/week old believers and they gave their all. I repeat, you don't need standards, you need (true) Christians.

debosky:

Sir, I was not looking for contradictions.



Firstly, those in the NT were not 'instructed' to sell all their possessions - they did so because that is what they decided in their hearts to do, not because they were trying to 'meet' any standard.

In terms of giving as much as we 'ought to', I believe this is a personal thing between the individual and God. If God is leading you to give more, by all means do so, but don't enforce that on others - let them give as they are led.

I'm not a big fan of 'yardsticks' when it comes to giving, but I do hear what you are saying. Used as a guide, and clearly explained as not mandated/commanded in scripture, tithing is a valid practice. It is when tithing is taught as compulsory and 'robbing God' that issues arise.



But it is stated Genesis 2:24, and repeated by Jesus in Matthew 19:5.



Again, as long as it is taught in light of scripture, there is nothing wrong with this doctrine.



No it causes complaints because of the manner in which it is taught and practiced, which in many cases, is not in line with scripture.



It is not for any man to propose a standard, it is for all men to give as they purpose in their heart. Don't be obsessed with creating rules just let God lead you. If God leads you to give 10%, 20% or 100%, then do so.

Goshen360:

New Living Translation
When God speaks of a "new" covenant, it means he has made the first one obsolete. It is NOW out of date and will soon disappear. Hebrews 8:13

New Living Translation
He has enabled us to be ministers of his new covenant. This is a covenant not of written laws, but of the Spirit. The old written covenant ends in death; but under the new covenant, the Spirit gives life. 2 Corinthians 3:6

stillwater:

To your words in bold, I don't know if i'm getting you right, but I just want to say that Jesus has paid the SACRIFICE on the cross. There is no need to pay another sacrifice. That is a false doctrine if your intention is to say that we are to still make sacrifices to God. I believe that's a false doctrine. Read the following verses...

As a result, Jesus has become the guarantee of a better covenant. The others who became priests are numerous because death prevented them from continuing to serve. In contrast, he holds the office of priest permanently because he continues to serve forever. This is why he can completely save those who are approaching God through him, because he always lives to speak with God for them. It’s appropriate for us to have this kind of high priest: holy, innocent, incorrupt, separate from sinners, and raised high above the heavens. He doesn’t need to offer sacrifices every day like the other high priests, first for their own sins and then for the sins of the people. He did this once for all when he offered himself. The Law appoints people who are prone to weakness as high priests, but the content of the solemn pledge, which came after the Law, appointed a Son who has been made perfect forever. (Hebrews 7:22-28 CEB)

Jesus has sacrificed himself once and for all!
We can come to the father freely with no charge.

Candour:

@Ihedinobi, i know you addresed the above to debosky but i decided to chip in as i believe it's in a way related to the point you raised to me.

i want to believe when you make mention of Laws in the old testament, you're not restricting it to just the 10 commandments on tables of stone? If you are, then you'll be right to say circumcision is not there just as Tithe, laws of bodily discharge etc do not also feature. If however, you are talking about all the laws(613 of them) by which the theocracy of Isreal operated, then i'm afraid you'll be wrong to say circumcision is not included. read Joshua chapter 5 to see how it was fully incorporated.Then also remember it was the main distinguishing feature between Jews and gentiles.

When John came baptising, people were still being circumcised. Even Paul had to shave his head and circumcise timothy just to keep the judaizers quiet and this was more than 10 years after Peter's preaching on the day of pentecost when over 3000 were baptised as believers.So i'll disagree that circumcision corresponds to the baptism of today.

i'm open to more enlightenment on the issue pls

debosky:

Ah ok, so instead of eating 10% in the church, I can eat 50% instead? Wonderful.

Since the OT said don't eat pork, more sacrificially means don't eat cow, goat, ram or even donkey.

Legalistic folk are always looking for 'references' and 'lowest levels'.

Now seriously, the OT is a shadow, but only in some respects and the 'shadow' aspect of tithing is simply what Paul indicated as follows:

1 Corinthians 9:13-14 13 Don’t you know that those who serve in the temple get their food from the temple, and that those who serve at the altar share in what is offered on the altar? 14 In the same way, the Lord has commanded that those who preach the gospel should receive their living from the gospel.

Note - no percentage, no figure, simply a principle of support. Nothing more! Mandating 10% as a compulsory minimum is a purely human requirement not from God. That is not to say those who tithe are wrong, but those who insist it is a requirement are in error.

Goshen360:

I don't understand what u driving at. My point is simply and clear. Christians have a new covenant and it's NOT the same as the old of which Malachi is part of the old. You live in a new country but trying to obey or follow the terms, conditions and laws of your birth country. Does that make any sense?

Well a woman can support the family but it is not her job. A man must take care of his family. That is his job.

My friend get that lazy attitude out of your head. I don't read my bible very well, but I know a man must provide for his household. God did not say it is joint effort. A woman is a homemaker not a home provider.

Isn't it possible that she was a virgin when she got married? Are you one of those people who believe there are no longer virgins in existence?

There are many decent gals out there

debrief08: This is for those quoting the Bible to say The man must provide while the woman sits and only makes the home, false, The Bible lists her characters carefully as an industrious woman who CONTRIBUTES to the wealth of her family by using her hands and working hard.
Proverbs 31:11-27.
31:11 The heart of her husband doth safely trust in her, so that he shall have no need of spoil.
31:12 She will do him good and not evil all the days of her life.
31:13 She seeketh wool, and flax, and worketh willingly with her hands.
31:14 She is like the merchants' ships; she bringeth her food from afar.
31:15 She riseth also while it is yet night, and giveth meat to her household, and a portion to her maidens.
31:16 She considereth a field, and buyeth it: with the fruit of her hands she planteth a vineyard.
31:17 She girdeth her loins with strength, and strengtheneth her arms.
31:18 She perceiveth that her merchandise is good: her candle goeth not out by night.
31:19 She layeth her hands to the spindle, and her hands hold the distaff.
31:20 She stretcheth out her hand to the poor; yea, she reacheth forth her hands to the needy.
31:21 She is not afraid of the snow for her household: for all her household are clothed with scarlet.
31:22 She maketh herself coverings of tapestry; her clothing is silk and purple.
31:23 Her husband is known in the gates, when he sitteth among the elders of the land.
31:24 She maketh fine linen, and selleth it; and delivereth girdles unto the merchant.
31:25 Strength and honour are her clothing; and she shall rejoice in time to come.
31:26 She openeth her mouth with wisdom; and in her tongue is the law of kindness.
31:27 She looketh well to the ways of her household, and eateth not the bread of idleness.

This is not a picture of a "barefoot and pregnant" housewife.
This woman is trustworthy, diligent, independent, and generous..
She has her own business, her own income, her own property plus she doesn't mal treat house helps.
