    Stumbling Block / Adultery

    ...with some quotes from Miles J Stanford's Principles of Spiritual Growth, recommended on this forum in a different thread under the title Green Letters. I downloaded and printed off this book and have found great comfort in it. I highly recommend it to everyone. I wonder if we have a...

    Stumbling Block / Adultery

    Cammie - forgive my anger. I don't take kindly to being judged and told I don't care about God or the Bible by someone who knows so very little about me.

    Stumbling Block / Adultery

    Thank you Cammie for such sound wisdom and understanding. NOT. You know nothing of our circumstances but are very quick to judge AND condemn on the basis of your own experience. If I didn't care what God or the Bible thinks, I wouldn't have posted here. You need to grow up a little before...

    Stumbling Block / Adultery

    Hi Ashley I'm afraid that's a matter of opinion / interpretation. He would have to divorce his wife or his wife divorce him and even if we married (assuming we could find a pastor worth his salt that would marry us, which is a contradiction in terms, in my opinion), it's my opinion and that...

    Stumbling Block / Adultery

    Thank you for your reply, Whitehorse. I do agree with you, believe it or not. This is what I say to a friend who is trying, in my opinion, to create her own version of Christianity (including telling me, if I'm certain God has His hand in our relationship, to find a church that agrees with...

    Stumbling Block / Adultery

    Ceris, thank you! I needed to hear a gentle voice too. (I'm sure Protestant Minister is old enough and big enough to apologise for himself if he wants to!) This situation is bad enough and I need help, not condemnation. I'm visiting my pastor tomorrow to talk to him about it. I'll be very...

    Stumbling Block / Adultery

    Another thought - in crediting Satan, you give him power and ground. My love for my partner and his for me is not "temporary pleasure of the flesh" - very very far from it. Perhaps we are way of beam - and if you think so, do tell me - but we thank the Lord for our blessed love for one another...

    Stumbling Block / Adultery

    I understand that you must feel that I'm wrong in thinking that God had a hand in bringing my partner and I together, but to say I blame God for my sin is inaccurate, not a little insulting and, in my opinion, rather a strange way to interpret what I've said. One thing I'm certain of is...

    Stumbling Block / Adultery

    Thanks for your response, Shetland Rose. I very much appreciate your intention to pray for us - thank you. To answer your question about children - partner's wife and children are all grown up and married so no *young* ones involved. I think that what I find most difficult is the idea...

    Stumbling Block / Adultery

    I came across the topic Marriage after Adultery from last year and it's prompted me to start another similar thread about my own situation. I'll try to give you as much information as possible and in as concise a way as I can. My partner (yes, partner) and I met over 3 years ago. At the...
