From My experience there is one thing alone that can really persuade your loved ones - who have not yet found Christ, to at least consider Christ - is you. Salvation and then relationship with Christ, and your choice to strive towards being as Christlike as possible will produce fruits in your...

My answer to the question regarding would it be wrong to ask God to fulfill that part of the package so that you are matched I would say - NO WAY, go ahead and ask Him, it's important. I have had discussions with God on the topic, I have openly asked God outright about sexual compatability with...

Is your relationship serious and important to you? Then you should say. What would happen if later on your BF found out you hadn't told him, he would then seriously wonder WHY you hadn't told him, what are you hiding, if it was really no big deal?? Plus, think about like this, change positions...

HILARIOUS!!! Honestly, if we stopped doing all the behaviours which would hinder someone who may have an unusual weak area, then we wouldn't leave the house or watch TV or look at billboards or, or, or, we could go on forever. And frankly, I really hate the image this paints of guys, that...

I think that when you are younger, say 20s and 30s the age gap is way more meaningful than when you are older then that, in terms of dating someone who was say 10 years older or younger. There's the maturity levels and stages of life things that just seem to clash then. But, I also think that...

I did have a browse through that book in my church library and I agree with you, I thought it was very good.

I'm with you, in my opinion, ANYTHING by Josh Harris is completely lame.

Hi there, I know that this thread is a little bit old and I wondered whether I should reply with what I want to say but I think it's important, so I will. And I don't share lightly as it is a very personal thing. I am in the same boat as you, in my previous life I was very sexually active, I...

When I was at the supermarket and I was telling the checkout girl about when how when I started working at the same place, there was no scanners and the store closed at 12pm on a Saturday - you know, way back in the dark ages. And she said to me - was I even born then???? The worst bit was when...

I think I am having de jevu. I haven't been around the forum for an age and then I saw this thread which I thought was the same as the thread from a year or so ago, but it's new, obviously. Anyway I will say something similar to what I said before and I still believe is absolutely true. If it's...

Hi I will try and answer this the best I can - of course this is just what I believe. First I want to really encourage you to stick with it. Nobody said being Christian was easy (and anyone who who did was an idiot). If you want a man of God (a genuine one), if you want a God centred...

Hi There I am getting the feeling that maybe you think you have 'missed the boat' because you haven't met someone within some set time that you thought you should have. Maybe you are focusing too much attention on finding someone and not enough on your relationship with God - just a thought...

Hi Catlover This is quite long; I’m sorry but please bear with me. I will share with you my view, from a person who had a seriously major problem in this area myself, some of which I have had victory over, some of which I still struggle with. Firstly, although I’m sure well meaning, I...

I do actually struggle with this question, I find that I have a hard time attributing to God that which could have occured naturally, or anyway. My friend had the full cancer experience, including a mastectomy, although she did received something of a miracle in that she was prayed for that she...

I think you have asked a really good question Jim, and I am in agreement with your conclusions, I don't think I used to be but something happened which has made me change my mind. Six years ago a close Christian friend of mine was diagnosed with breast cancer and of course we all prayed for...

Let me ask you some questions, because I disagree with what you are saying. First of all I will say that there are in fact plenty of non-Christians who have peace, love and joy in their lives - and you can't argue that they don't, and plenty of Christians who have rage, anger and rebellion...

Wow, that's a big question. Ok here's my thoughts on it. Obviously God has practically unending facets to His character, however I don't all of us get to understand all of them, or will even get all of them until we meet Him in heaven. Until then I think at different times in our lives...

I'm not sure if this is a little off the topic or not, but we are talking about various ways of communicating and their effectiveness in sharing the things of God. So, I will share my thoughts, not so much on the written word, or I mean the way it's written, but on verbal communication, which...

I'm not sure that it was meant to be, but I have found most of this discussion highly amusing, in a good way. Which is pretty much how I feel about all the rules and regulations some people put in place for themselves when dating. It makes you wonder what's the difference between 2 people...

I think you're being a bit harsh, I mean sometimes the people with the best advice are the ones with the real world experiences who've been there and learned something and gained wisdom as a result. He thinks your beliefs are BS, so what, you obviously disagree with his, there's no need to get...
