MrSinister:
is that what you think?!

But honestly, when I cast my mind back to several random events that have occurred in the recent past, I am led to believe that God has been trying to reach out to me! Several people have approached me in a strange way, telling me things. First one I can vividly remember was when a child playing on the street suddenly walked up to me and told me to give my life to Christ!!! I responded that I was already a Christian and the boy shook his head and walked away!
and what's hindering you from being saved ATM?

But
Really? Really? With my natural sense I doubt that.

But by faith I believe that cheesy
I pray that will be my portion. If you go through this thread, you would see how I stated good guys do not know how to relate with the good girls, but it will amaze you how they relate with the other ladies.

Well, maybe I haven't seen those guys you're talking about. but I believe you because I know such guys still exist.

Thanks bro.
I do agree with you, I have often observed that also with very few and rare exceptions
I would have gone through the thread since but forgot my invite from temi4fash... might still run through as it looks exciting thus far.
you're welcome.

bennyann:
Sometime ago, a man told me "good girls like me are the ones who turn out so pitiable and they eventually settle down with men that aren't noble or Honourable while the bad ones end up settling down with wealthy and Honourable men and tend to be treated like a queen as though they never lived a despicable life"

I immediately renounced it by replying that won't be my portion and he'll live to see how God would beautify my life to the extent he would wish he had swallowed up those words.

But after that scene died down, I thought to myself - is this man not saying the truth? Because I looked around me and realized most ladies have things going well for them and even settled down with high caliber of men one never thought would settle with them.
But I thank God and I'm happy for such people because I do spend time praying for such people when I feel if they continue with that lifestyle, it may lead to their regret. So it feels so good to see them blessed and prosperous and especially, settled down with their own family already. I mean that's a testimony But what that man told me began creating fear in me.

LESSONS LEARNT
Though I sometimes get scared of what the man said but as a Christian, I shouldn't allow that and I think if what the man said come to pass, it would be because of some of my behaviors and principles I ought to change and which are:

1. I have to minimize the way I stay indoors or just keep to myself. I have to let go of the fear of going to New places, making new friends and getting to know people all in the name of protecting me. If God has protected me this far, He can't leave me now.

2. A strong mindset of being in only one relationship which it's a must it leads to marriage. I desire so much just to be in a relationship with one person in my life. I hate with a passion being in a romantic relationship here and there, not to talk of the imagination of being touched by different people all over the place. Eeeeeeeww.
But what do I do when such a relationship doesn't work? Should I then kill myself or force it? NO

3. Being in a relationship with someone that's as Godly as you or should I say more Godly. Some persons especially pastors to be or pastors because of the height of purity they believe they've attained in life makes it difficult for them to overlook some mistakes their partners make which could have easily been overlooked by unbelievers or 'the not so righteous'.

I desired being taken to the altar by a Pastor but I doubt that now. Because it seems those in the world know how to love their woman than the so called Holy Ghost filled men.

4. I shouldn't give too much attention to those who claim they love me or they just want to be my friends. I've observed most men don't like to be given attention by the woman they claim they love, even the so called good guys. It's like it's in their nature, immediately they find out or they think you care too much for them or you love them way too much, they then think you can't do without them. This makes them take you for a fool or a non entity. No wonder good guys get married to bad girls and vice versa.

That makes me wonder, when they get married, should their wives not care for them or give them attention as they desired? I doubt if they would find that funny

This 4th point should be my No.1 lesson but I don't think it would be easy for me to go by it. Because my heart is filled with too much love to give out. To me, it takes more than a strong heart or a strong decision not to care for those you like not to talk of those you love or cherish. I hope I get to that point though but it will really hurt not giving attention to the one you care about.

5. I should not love first. I should be the one to receive love, enough of it before I can say yes, it's time for me to give back love.
This is a major lesson I've learnt but it's also the one that would really hurt if I have to make the person who genuinely loves me and is not blinded by ego go through that. He doesn't deserve it.

6. I no longer believe in the platonic kind of friendship between members of the opposite sex. I'm a kind who do have one close friend at a time depending on the change of environment and it turned out guys have been more of my close friends than the ladies. Though ladies are more comfortable with male friends but I think I can advise that the opposite sex shouldn't be a 'best friend'.
I realized it doesn't actually turn out pure as people portray. And that's because one of you might have developed or will eventually develop what I can call a Sexual kind of feeling towards the other. And guys out there who doesn't want to come closer to you for friendship sake but for relationship sake will find it difficult to come closer to you and may eventually quit and that's because they see what you don't see or what you pretend to never see.

After my platonic friendship with the second or third guy, I came to the conclusion that there's nothing like 'best friends' between a guy and a lady and that's because I got to know they had feelings for me in one way or the other. Though some denied the feelings, I eventually got to know through how they tried having a feel of my body.
That shows there seems to be something going on behind closed doors so I wouldn't advice anyone to get so close to the opposite sex in the guise of best friends. I also wouldn't advise anyone to leave his or her partner in the friendship of the opposite sex.

What's my fate then? I'm waiting to see because I refuse to be a good girl gone bad. I won't let the words of men that want to destroy me change me. I won't let the failure of good or Godly guys loving me change me. If someone like me exists and can still love then there should be someone for me out there who is good, Godly and still knows how to love.
I refuse to be among the good girls who end up badly. God help me.

I hope to look back on this thread and smile that I made it, some time in the future.


Are you married or single? Let me know your view of good, Godly single girls, the advantages and disadvantages.
Good Godly guys... that's their fate.

Is it right in the 'eyes of God' for a single Christian man who has never married before to bear children through surrogacy ? You know just to circumvent fornication which is a sin .

If that is what you think, why say anything like that at all?



If you know something, why don't you share it with everyone?

[color=silver].[/color] PROVERBS 3:27-29.

27. Withhold not good from them to whom it is due,
when it is in the power of thine hand to do it.
28. Say not unto thy Neighbour,


“GO, AND COME AGAIN,
AND TO MORROW I WILL GIVE;”


when thou hast it by thee.
29. Devise not Evil against thy Neighbour,
seeing he dwelleth securely by thee.


[color=silver].[/color] PROVERBS 27:17.

17. Iron sharpeneth iron;
so a man sharpeneth
the countenance of his friend.


[color=silver].[/color] 1st JOHN 3:14-24.

14. We know that we have passed from Death unto Life,
because we love The Brethren.
He that loveth not his brother abideth in Death.
15. Whosoever hateth his Brother is a Murderer:
and ye know that no murderer
hath Eternal Life abiding in him.
16. Hereby perceive we The Love of God,
because he laid down his life for us:
and we ought to lay down our lives for The Brethren.
17. But whoso hath this World's good,
and seeth his Brother have need,
and shutteth up his Bowels of Compassion from him,
how dwelleth The Love of God in him?
18. My Little Children, let us not love in word,
neither in tongue; but in Deed and in Truth.
19. And hereby we know that we are of The Truth,
and shall assure our hearts before him.
20. For if our heart condemn us,
God is greater than our heart,
and knoweth all things.
21. Beloved, if our heart condemn us not,
then have we confidence toward God.
22. And whatsoever we ask,
we receive of Him,
because we keep His Commandments,
and do those things
that are pleasing in His Sight.
23. And this is His Commandment,


“THAT WE SHOULD BELIEVE ON
THE NAME OF HIS SON JESUS CHRIST,
AND LOVE ONE ANOTHER,
AS HE GAVE US COMMANDMENT.”


24. And he that keepeth His Commandments
dwelleth in Him,
and He in him.

And hereby we know that He abideth in us,


"BY THE SPIRIT WHICH HE HATH GIVEN US."

WHAT MADE YOU DECIDE, THAT SOMETHING YOU KNOW, IS NOT NEEDED BY SOMEONE ELSE HERE, TO ADD TO WHATEVER ELSE GOD DELIVERED INTO HIS HAND, THAT HE WOULD ULTIMATELY USE TO SAVE YOUR LIFE- OR THAT OF SOMEONE IMPORTANT? (Sic.)

[color=silver].[/color] ECCLESIASTES 9:13-16.

13. This Wisdom have I seen also
under the Sun,
and it (seemed) great unto me:
14. (There was) a little city,
and few men within it;
and there came a great king against it,
and besieged it,
and built great bulwarks against it:
15. Now there was found in it a poor wise man,
and he by his Wisdom delivered the city;
yet no man remembered that same poor man.
16. Then said I,


“WISDOM (IS) BETTER THAN STRENGTH:
NEVERTHELESS THE POOR MAN'S
WISDOM (IS) DESPISED,
AND HIS WORDS ARE NOT HEARD. "


Don't you know, that there was a POINT where ONE MAN, with THE RIGHT KNOWLEDGE, delivered WITHIN THE RIGHT TIMEFRAME, could have TOTALLY-PREVENTED, say, BOKO HARAM? 9/11? The GULF WARS? But because SOMEONE was a PRIMA DONNA- a DICK- that Knowledge did not get transferred, a DOMINO EFFECT ensued, and the End Result was ALL OF THOSE DEATHS, and WASTE.

(My sub-unit boss is a GRADUATE- with a wife and kid- sharp brat! I asked his father: "You know DOMINOES?" I had to EXPLAIN to him what DOMINOES were, because he had NEVER even HEARD of them. He went through ALL the Schools- but had never heard of DOMINOES in his life! This was relevant, because we were handling potentially lethal materials, and by carelessly knocking over something harmless- say, a toilet roll, or a box of cover-slides- that could knock over one of the row of that material, which could knock over the next in the row, which could knock over the next in the row, and so on, until we have potentially-infectious URINE all over our laps! This is how a man named PATRICK SAWYER nearly KILLED US ALL in 2014- with his DICK! http://www.premiumtimesng.com/news/headlines/170800-how-liberian-american-patrick-sawyer-deliberately-infected-our-staff-with-ebola-first-consultant-hospital.html . We HAD a case on-Campus, of a girl who came in contact with one of the people who was infected by that wicked idiot! We DID nearly ALL DIE!)

Scholar8200:
Thanks for the mention bro.

Op, this is the meaning:

At the time this command came, there was not much of the revelation of the Names of God and/or the Holy Things like we have them today. However,like the first answer rightly said, this is the amplified version of that command:

1.
You shall not use or repeat the name of the Lord your God in vain [that is, lightly or frivolously, in false affirmations or profanely]; for the Lord will not hold him guiltless who takes His name in vain.
Exodus 20:7

2.
However, it also means we should not act in ANY way that will make others blaspheme God's Name:

lest I be full, and deny thee, and say, Who is the Lord?
or lest I be poor, and steal, and take the name of my God in vain.
Proverbs 30:9

Just like David was judged because as a result of his immorality and murder, he gave ,"... great occasion to the enemies of the Lord to blaspheme" (2 samuel 12:14)
