    How do you know when God is closing a door VS we just have to be persistent?

    Sry. Stopping right there. If God closes a door on you... that is it. Dead in the water. Give up. Goodnight. ...

    Can I re-marry my ex-husband?

    If it was true love, then marrying anyone else was adultery. People act like they can't tell when people are in love. So they claim otherwise. They claim it does not exist. And surprise, surprise, the world is full of strife and pain. This kind of logic escapes them. Either they are as...

    What destroys love between man and woman?

    God is love, and I think a lot of ideas would go against that, in the sort of way that Solomon suggest cutting the baby in two... or how a spouse can threaten separation to see if that they really matter to the other people, to get evidence of their value to that person. That can be as simple...

    Which path to take?

    If your relationship is strong and her will is strong against this career, then you will find you have no choice. Granted, you can go for the career, and she may feel she needs to leave you, and then you can spend decades in misery without her while building a career. For what reason. Claiming...

    Need some... something!

    It sounds like you are remotely describing a situation. Maybe you either are talking about someone else, or simply remote from the emotions and circumstances and need to get into it more. I was reading about the past and memories and how the present and future drastically changes the past...

    What do you do when negativity is all around?

    I work in security, so I don't tend to see anything as negative. I have also worked in sales and learned that the negative and seeing the negative everywhere... while may be true... is also a matter of perspective that itself can be defeatist and give in. It might be like walking into a...

    Accusing ex neighbor

    Blow it off. I think you are right, but at the same time, why did God allow Satan to test Job? To destroy Satan. I think when Satan comes through people, it doesn't necessarily make them bad, even as Satan effectively came through God's OK and Heaven. Rather, it shut down those accusations...

    Being with people in spirit, what does that mean?

    I read about this a lot, but don't know what it means. Is this a true thing, or has science disproved it? I don't know how this kind of thing could be true, because it is not something observable in a microscope and seems to be "religious". Is being with people in spirit just a psychological...

    Face in Mirror

    I dreamed I was standing in a field outside of a barn and looking at my face in the mirror. My eyes were deeply dark, with dark circles. It was scary, like one of those kids from Children of the Corn.

    Tell me its OK to gamble

    Depends. I think the theme of the movie that came out this summer about a guy who wins the lottery but has to hide it until he can cash it is interesting. And spiritual. Personally, I like casinos. But, I mostly like to just hang out in the restaurants and never gamble. We all gamble all the...

    Reincarnation?

    Wrong forum, imo. I don't know anyone who might believe people might become... eagles or lions or lambs or dragons or angels or anything like that. But, I do believe in The Resurrection of the Dead. No idea when that happens. Guess when a bunch of dead people are walking around like the...

    can you have your cake and eat it too?

    Honestly, why go to some teacher teaching a monetary prosperity message? I don't get it myself, I don't want to get materially rich. And if I did, I would study real estate and oil, corporations, how to buy and sell... not go to a church. Seems kind of profaning, unless they are asleep and...

    How do I kno if this is the Right Career Choice God wants me to make?

    Toss a coin. Whatever decision you make was God's decision. Maybe. What do you want to do? See unborn babies quaking in the womb? That sounds fascinating. Do they really respond to music as some say?

    Friendships with unbelievers...?

    Too much thinking, too little being yourself. Trust God has saved you and works through you naturally. Without thinking. Problem is... well... we do think, so that may be according to God's will, too? Anyway, consider the friend and the messages you send to them. Maybe they are a sleeping...

    Urgent help- "voice in head"

    It is the spiritual, try to judge rightly on matters. Answer questions, find answers, this kills off those things. Resist the devil and he flees. Don't give him a foothold. Or whoever questions you, whatever spirit. What are you really looking for, though, in life?

    What Should I do??

    On ppl having a prob w/ you: so what. They ask you to pray? What is that supposed to mean. Dump em. Find somewhere else to go. Don't let people treat you like a doormat. They don't like you? Why then are they coming up with junk on you? They apparently think about you enough to create delusions...

    I think my youth pastor hates or dislikes me.

    Maybe you are attractive. Guys can tend to do that with attractive girls. Try and get his attention, but then, that is probably what he wants. Sorry, people are just this way.

    Worrying about tomorrow vs. Planning about Tomorrow

    Use outlook and don't worry about it. I find I have little timers that pop up reminders right away. I am a planner. I am an architect. Think always on the long term. Just consider contingency plans. Consider what is best for everyone and what actually works and does not work. Consider, above...

    Lost in a doubt

    Okay, instead of answers, which you badly thirst for, here are some rhetorical questions to get you looking in the better place where you can find answers for yourself. 1. You say you want to put God in the center of your life, yet don't know who God is. God is God. Everyone knows who God is...

    Recovering a pure faith

    Hard advice: You are thinking too much. Be like a child. Children play. They don't take their games seriously, and if they are, they are just pretending. Adults get stuck in their roles when they get good ones and addicted. We aren't roles, we aren't any of that. Get to zero. Get to nothing...
