The Venting Thread

[Learning always]

Hmm…. Sounds a bit judgmental.

If that was your intention in your post, to judge me, then you are in no place to because you are not perfect either.

No, no, don't misunderstand.
That's not my intention, I am not fit to judge you. Why do you think so?

Okay I am sorry. I thought you were. I was wrong. [Hugs]

What did you actually mean?

My words carry no judgement at all, I said I discovered some hints, just hints , not facts. I just want to say some of the materials you shared might not be pleasing to God.

Which materials do you mean?

I want to know why He doesn’t talk to me or many other Humans He made.

I wish God talked to me more. I would like a dialogue with him. I can't tell you how many times I've asked Him to tell me one thing about my future husband.

The woman that wrote "Jesus Calling", she desired dialogue with God, instead of a monologue.

I have no idea who God is and I have no idea who Satan is.

All I know is God made me and Satan seems to hate me.

We can know God through the Bible. Observe His characteristics and actions.

Satan hates anyone that stands by God. He has hated me a long time.

In my experience He does but if the lone time you converse is prayer that isn’t much of a connection. People will text their friends throughout the day or share a moment just because. But few do the same with God. If you want more of Him you have to be more inclusive and fill your day with His presence. That’s what Brother Lawrence alludes to in his book. We can experience His presence constantly.

As for your future spouse pray for him from head to toe and do it as a service on a daily basis. I’m not suggesting it’s wrong to ask but there’s things you can do in this season in preparation which usually provide the answers you want. I think it’s more important to know your mission beforehand. That’s what narrows the pool beyond what appeals. If he doesn’t support what you’re doing for the Lord the rest is moot.

But when you know what He wants you can assess what’s lacking and ask for that in response. Someone with specific qualities related to your assignment that will help you accomplish it who needs the same from you in turn. That’s how I address the topic spiritually and I don’t mention men or marriage anymore. He brings it up and fills in the blanks.

I have asked God many times to tell me about my Soulmate too!!

He hasn't answered yet, but I still have hope it will happen one day if I keep praying!! I also pray for you peaceful that God will give you the man who is your Soulmate/Husband!! I have think there is a good reason why we have the desire for a Husband/Soulmate.

And I love the Jesus Calling Devotional!! I still haven't finished reading it but I do like it a lot. I got it from Hobby Lobby!! ^w^

I will pray God helps you my Sister/Friend in your time of waiting for your Soulmate. I pray that it does happen for you, that God gives you the right Man!! AMEN!! [Hugs]

We can wait for our Husbands together!! [Hugs]

You probably could, but then would , eventually and hopefully, start to see that that group is opposed to Jesus and contrary in most ways to the Bible, God's Word. Possibly naive? Definitely not obedient to what God Says in His Word in His Instructions to anyone who chooses to seek Him.

How is wanting everyone that God made be saved by Him from their sins and be forgiven going against God?

37 He told him, “‘You are to love Adonai your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength.’ 38This is the greatest and most important mitzvah. 39And a second is similar to it, ‘You are to love your neighbor as yourself.’ 40All of the Torah and the Prophets are dependent on these two mitzvot.”

Mattityahu (Mat) 22:37-40 CJB​

If you love someone, you would want them to be saved.

And Jesus said to love your neighbor as yourself.

There is no evil in wanting everyone to be saved and forgiven by God.

 

[GodAndChocolateVanilla]

Justifying the wicked, as well as blaming the innocent, is an abomination.

I never justified wickedness or blamed anyone innocent. And also, all have sinned against God.

 

[GodAndChocolateVanilla]

Not nearly everyone is saved - the sinful, the wicked, who are always opposed to God, who never repent, who do not seek repentance, remain guilty and dead and condemned in sin, not saved.

And how do you know that God will not decide to save everyone? Are you Him? Then you do not know who God will save.

Everyone God made has sinned.

No one is perfect and no one has a right to say who is going to Hell, except God.

15 but if you do not forgive others their offenses, your heavenly Father will not forgive yours.

Mattityahu (Mat) 22:15 CJB​

I am not sure why you seem to be opposed to the idea of everyone getting saved and being forgiven by God.

He isn’t opposed and is correct in his objection. What you describe isn’t biblical. It’s a principle held in universalism. They believe everyone will be saved. You may wish for the same but God honors our free will. If the wicked choose not to repent they won’t be forced nor will they spend eternity with Him as He promised.

There is nothing wrong with wishing and praying for God to save everyone.

 

[peaceful-forest]

While it's not wrong to desire everyone to be saved (and God also desires for everyone to be saved), the Bible has already told us that not everyone will be saved. Either people will be in Jesus' Kingdom or they will be in the Lake of Fire.
