Mark, your post is a nice reminder of the fact that the book of Revelation was intended as a blessing to us. Thank you for bringing attention to the spiritual lessons found in this book. "Blessed is the one who reads the words of this prophecy aloud, and blessed are those who hear and obey the...

Being lonely and yearning for a companion is a very natural feeling when a person is single. I personally find comfort in the fact that God created Eve as a direct answer to Adams loneliness. Not everyone gets married in the end, but I trust that God knows what's best for me.

I usually put vanilla flavored soy milk on my cereal, but I don't really drink it. (I'm lactose intolerant, so no regular milk for me.)

It's often a bad idea to date someone from other denominations, but there are of course exceptions.

Raises his hand... I never knew long haired men like myself were in such high demand! ;) I don't look anything like that photo, though, haha! However, I'd like to add that I agree with those who have pointed out that finding a suitable partner is about a lot more than finding a person with...

“I have been a lucky man. To feel the intimacy of brothers is a marvelous thing in life. To feel the love of people whom we love is a fire that feeds our life. But to feel the affection that comes from those whom we do not know, from those unknown to us, who are watching over our sleep and...

""When they heard these words, some of the crowd began to say, "This really is the Prophet!" Others said, "This is the Christ!" But still others said, "No, for the Christ doesn't come from Galilee, does he? Don't the scriptures say that the Christ is a descendant of David and comes from...

I'd like to quote something that @timewerx wrote in another of @ImAllLikeOkWaitWhat 's threads: “At this stage, I could probably marry a Klingon and it wouldn't matter!”

Well, it would be very easy for me to recommend you to disregard the inner voice that tells you that you are wrong about this matter, since you say that you have studied this issue in depth. The scriptural and historic context of a text is undoubtedly essential in order to do a correct exegesis...

@TX_Matt Brother, I hope you don’t mind that I make this comparison, but your dilemma reminds me a little of Nebuchadnezzar, who asked his soothsayers to tell him what he dreamed. ;) :P From a human point of view you’re asking the impossible of us, you’re asking us to help to choose between...

It’s always nice to see the face behind the username, you are all very lovely people. However, I personally wouldn’t post my picture on a forum such as this out of principle. I wouldn’t have any problems sharing photos privately with pen pals and so on, but in these days I think it’s a good idea...

In scripture the Christian life is referred to as the “good fight”. (1 Tim 1:18.) This fight is internal as well as external. We fight against sin and our own fallen natures, and against the “strongholds of evil”, the many things that actively prevents people from accepting the truth of the...

I don’t think this is a simple either/or question, but close friendships with someone of the opposite sex is definitively a common cause of conflict in a marriage, there’s no denying.

Congrats, I'm sure that you're very proud of your boys! :) May God bless them!

I live in a rural area in a very secular country. There aren't any single ladies in the congregations I frequent.

@Lybrah Let me first say that I understand your feelings… I’ve never been married either, and yes, it’s easy to become discouraged as one gets older. However, I think you made some very good decisions when it comes to love and dating. Avoiding premarital sex and not wanting to jump into...

One of my hobbies is stargazing/astronomy!

The LORD is near the brokenhearted; The godly face many dangers, but the LORD saves them from each one of them. - Psalms 34:18-19

I think that it’s okay to complain when we feel ignored by God. The psalmist certainly felt free to hold God responsible for his silence: “But to you, Lord, I have cried. In the morning, my prayer comes before you. LORD, why do you reject my soul? Why do you hide your face from me?” Psalms...
