"If any man come unto me and hate not his wife, he cannot be my disciple." {Luke 14:26 KJV} "If you want to be my follower you must love me more than your wife. Otherwise you cannot be my disciple." {Luke 14:26 NLT} My wife says the King James is a bad translation here. :doh:

Again, maybe I'm wrong, but that number on the Supreme Court seems to be about 5-4. Just one small step away from being 4-5. Then what?

Do you think I'm wrong when I say that there are many judges, all the way up to the Supreme Court, that do not believe in, or hold to, the Constitution?

Maybe I'm not understanding, or am not correctly informed, but what about churches being forced to provide for abortion in their health policies?

:thumbsup::thumbsup::thumbsup: More than anything: Seek God first and love Him with all your heart. P.S.--And be careful: "Be sober; be vigilant; because your great enemy the devil prowls around like a roaring lion, looking for some victim to devour." {1 Peter 5:8}

Hi Godislove, You need to hang around with my wife for a little while (the Tammy of post #14). She's not one bit afraid of persecution. As I once told another lady on here: "My wife's great at making friends (and she is); but she's also pretty good at making enemies. ;) (She not afraid to stand...

For me (and my wife), if keeping a friend (even one that is a relative) means not being able to live out my convictions (especially those that are important to me) then I guess I would have to say good-bye to the friendship. (Like the one poster said: I feel bad for you in regard to what you...

My wife and I will be praying for you. And just keep seeking God with all your heart. All the help and answers are in Him. God Bless

I don't think I've forgotten the thief on the cross. And I certainly know that Christians sometimes still fall into sin and need forgiveness and cleansing. At the same time, and I'm not saying that's where you're at, but I see in much of today's Christianity a gospel that's all about forgiveness...

No sooner said, then done. (I especially like the last paragraph.)

Oh, now I understand. But though I feel sorry for him, I don't think it justifies him having an affair. Like you said in one of your earlier posts, maybe he should get divorced.

You lost me. How is "forced celibacy" sin? Christ is not a "covering" for our sin, of but a Savior from our sin. "Jesus came to take away our sins, for there is no sin in him. So if we continue to live in him, we won't sin either. But those who keep on sinning have never known him." {1 John...
