    Its a grey area as to whether a Christian can/should be sexual with Oneself . But I do know this....I prayed to God to reduce my sexual drive substantially as I knew I was being called to Singleness after my divorce...and he has done that for me.

    Celibacy?

    God gave us all a sexual nature / sexual passion ; he just expects us to treat it with dignity and use it in the venue he has commanded us to so we don't harm ourselves , others, and a Nation at large. Just because we have genitilia doesn't mean it has to be used asap --- that is one of...

    My thoughts on the matter............... 1. In light of the huge divorce rate for Christian and Non Christian marriages, MOST PEOPLE should not have gotton married to that Person, MOST were not ready for the stress and strain of marriage (yet) , MOST don't possess what it takes for a...

    Fruit and works?

    Essentially, semantics. But if we have been changed inwardly by the power of God and now possess the ability to bear good fruit, then we should proactively put them into effect daily.

    How did they do it?

    Few thoughts.... 1. What you've described is religious legalism and enslavement to that which is false. In order to see how this comes about ending in control of People, one needs to understand the making of a Cult ... that is : A Group that claims to be Christian yet denies one or...

    God knows everything?

    Default religion

    You start out with the wrong premise in paragraph 1 and make a conclusion on it in the last paragraph . The historical Person of Jesus Christ proved that there are not a number of Gods , only One / that HE was that Creator God / that HE therefore is the way to have a safe eternity because...

    Found a match on a dating web site

    I suggest you don't allow him to meet your daughter or find out where you live exactly. Also, I assume you've qualified him as being an authentic Christian right ? Have you found out where he goes to church and have you spoken with his Pastor or Elder of his church for a character reference...
