I've discussed this in other forums and I wanted to discuss this here under ethics and morality. I've noticed that some conservative Christian groups have started advocating for a sovereign Christian marriage that isn't entangled in the civil institution of marriage as we know it. Essentially...

The Bible states that the holy angels are "ministering spirits" sent to minister to us, the heirs of salvation: Hebrews 1:13-14 King James Version (KJV) 13 But to which of the angels said he at any time, Sit on my right hand, until I make thine enemies thy footstool? 14 Are they not all...

Let's say a Christian man or woman has had a marriage, relationships, etc. and has realized that living as a single is indeed the life for them. How does God expect them to manage their "personal" needs?

Here's something rather "unorthodox"... I've discussed this in the marriage thread and the focus was largely cultural and related to law. However, I'm curious about the "biblical" view of what the website proposes. Here we go... I stumbled across a ministry titled, "In God's Eyes Only". It...

What are "ghosts"???

Hello, I wanted to present something here and get some input on what some of you might think about something that has been on me and my girlfriend's mind. I'm 37 years old and she's 35. Both of us have been married before and endured very painful and difficult divorces. We both have been blessed...

Is it possible to be "married in God's eyes" although you're not "married" legally? I ask this because I've been studying government free marriage and stumbled across this ministry: Home_Page The website reads: Marriage is a covenant not a contract. Frequently, civil marriage complicates...

In biblical times there were several different kinds of living arrangements. We read about: • Monogamous Marriage – Marriage consisting of one man and one woman. • Polygamous Marriage – Marriage consisting of one man and more than one woman. • Concubines &#8211...

I didn't know where to post this for discussion. Since it's unorthodox, I thought it might belong here. So I'm posting this subject here for discussion. Here's the subject... I've noticed a trend in theological research. With the "gay marriage" debate raging through the Western world many...

I continue to read about how the "institution of marriage" is in decline. It would seem that many believe that the problem isn't with morality per se, but rather GOVERNMENT meddling in private matters of the heart and soul of free individuals. Here's the question: Is it really possible to be...

A man and woman have been living together for nearly four years. They are both divorcees. Each experienced a very painful divorce that involved a level of abuse and betrayal. They each have children from their previous marriages. Each of them "played by the rules" in their previous marriages...

I think I've found a spiritual home. Unitarian Universalism. Here's a break down of what it is: There is no single unifying belief that all Unitarian Universalists (UUs) hold, aside from complete and responsible freedom of speech, thought, belief, faith, and disposition. Unitarian...

Pray for me. I'm TRAPPED. My wife left me a few years ago. She wanted to open our marriage and because I wouldn't tolerate it she began having an affair. She then left me saying that she wanted to "live life", evidently a life that has nothing to do with God or morals. She even let a gay...

Here's my situation... I used to be in ministry (on the preaching roster etc.) and then my wife left me (long story). I was so heart broken and my church treated me like something was wrong with me because my wife left. I lost heart and backslid and left the church. That was two years ago...

I was told that the original Apostolic Christians of the Bible didn't baptize using the threefold formula of Matthew 28:19, but rather they baptized simply by invoking the name of Jesus. These were the verses offered to support the claim: (Acts 2:38-41 KJV) (38) Then Peter said unto them...

My roots are Pentecostal (21 years) and now I attend a Reformed Baptist church. Are their Reformed Baptists that believe in the "spiritual gifts" (charismata)? Thanks.

I’m in a situation and I feel terrible about it. My wife left me two years ago and we have a five year old son. We married just out of high school. We had been married for 12 years and were both devout Christians and serving the church. She started hanging out with a group of individuals...
