From reading your post it seems to me that you have not dealt with the past hurt. I know the world tells us that we are men and have to be tough however i can not recommend enough that you see a psychologist. You need to want to get the most out of it. It will cause some pain as when we deal...

Providing evidence that it was written to pastors and how they are to deal with people and situations is evidence enough. In jewish times yes they did have betrothel period before marriage became official (consumated by sex) which happened one year later. The bible is clear Jacob did not marry...

Well actually that letter would be for the CEO and CEO only. What the CEO then does is for the workers however the letter still remains for the CEO only. Once again in your response despite over 8 requests for you to provide an explanation you have totally ignored the request and declined to...

Sorry but time to call you on this. That is an outright lie. It is outright dishonesty. I'd like to remind you that in the NT we can read that after the ressurection God struck two believers dead for telling a lie. God does not look upon lies lightly. You have point blank refused to address...

I have read the thread and it has been said by multiple people multiple times and several times by myself. That does not make it a sin. To be a sin the bible MUST be against it. So show your evidence that the bible is against it. So far you have basically used one passage which talks about how...

I do that every single day. You talk as if it is hard. It isn't hard to just treat people with respect and dignity.

No but you would still be preparing to marry your sister also known as incest. So for a period incest is ok according to you then magically it disappears!

Except you have not proven the bible does say what you claim.

So you are sleeping with your sister according to your own interpretation of that passage. Interesting! After all if you must treat younger women as sisters then you shouldn't marry them. If a interpretation leads to an absurdity like that then the problem is with the interpretation not the...

Once again you come up with all this garbage that people don't do on dates. Then you thinkm it is a convincing argument! Nice taking a verse out of context there by the way! It says So clearly talking about older people. The verses after talk about widows.

Mate you really need to start reading posts before responding. You have just falsely accused me not for the first time. I never have and never will say Marriage is just a piece of paper. I was responding to a question. The question I was responding to forms the context for my comment. Why do...

I know plenty who did not struggle. So to make a rule based on your experience when the bible does not support that is not valid. It is what the pharisees did. Make up all these extra rules.

You mean like when he said to Peter "Get behind me Satan"? Is that one of those non-harsh statements you are talking about?

That is you bringing the baggage rather than dealing with it. What do you mean kiss on cheek is maybe ok??? Greet one another with a holy kiss is biblical instruction. So of course it is ok. To be clear that in bible times that was not just opposite gender but men would kiss each other as well...

The common comment I hear is Why do I need a piece of paper to prove I love someone? or Why should i pay thousands of dollars for a piece of paper? Yes they can understand contract. They just don't understand the need to go through that. So the person puts part of the verse in bold and you...

This very first part of your response shows you just aren't reading what I am saying. I NEVER SAID CHRISTIANS DO NOT ATTEND. Is that clear enough for you? It is the non-christian gay people who I had an issue with. They were hateful bigots. They wanted to exclude the gay christians. Do you get...

Can I link to sources? No I can't. tony Campolo was certainly involved though. Noticed you didn't address my comments. In fact it seems you have not read them properly. Well if you think it is acceptable for gay people taking part in a gay pride march to tell the christians wanting to take...

So back in the 1980s when there was a christian conference and they took up a collection for victims of AIDS they were being callous were they? I know there are certainly those who are however to claim that is how all christians act like you are is the same action as what you are complaining...

So your solution is to leave those people rather than demonstrate love and try and win their brother & sisters over? Doesn't sound real great to me. In any case they are starting a new church where there will be disagreement like there is in all existing churches.

There is a testimony forum and you may find some stuff in there. I could share some stories even though I grew up in a christian home. However it would have to come with a trigger warning which is a problem posting it on a site like this.
