In the eyes of God , you have honored Him. Christian Life is not a man-pleasing religion. It is a relationship. The fact that you were faithful to God is what counts. Other people's opinions are fit for the trash. If God blesses you in the near future with a partner - you can be confident that...

I was furious when I discovered that my wife had lied to me about this. Pretended to be a virgin when she was not. Her actions/words during the time we were living together was so confusing - but made sense after the big reveal.

Staying a virgin speaks volumes of the person's character. I suspect to most men virginity is important because of jealousy - to want your partner all for yourself and to strengthen the marriage by that fact. God is a jealous God. It's said in the Old Testament and the New. He is so jealous for...

You need to reject human philosophies based on elementary natural understanding of the world and honor what God the designer of marriage has said. (Col.2:8). In the church, the family of God there is no place for sexual immorality, sexual partners etc... Those disgust God. Taking your vows as...

It looks like you are already emotionally attached to this girl and blindsided to any red flags you may otherwise see. To God, marriage is for life and that means you have one chance to get this right. If you are constantly thinking about the fact that she was intimate with other men - that in...

Anyone who commits fornication/adultery doesn't just forget the act. Guess what, there would be comparisons movies running in his head. If you find it difficult to process that your would-be partner has been intimate with someone else - it's a sign to think very deeply about this. You can save...

Nothing about this man suggests that he valued God's word when he committed fornication. In a very twisted way, is he confessing to you now, so that after marriage, if something serious were to be discovered/happen, he could say that he did warn you? That you were too blind to see when he told...

How did you find this prospective partner? Was it in a god-honoring way? Was he hiding the fact from you because he wanted to get you emotionally hooked first? Biblically, it is very wrong for a man and woman to be alone. Are you honoring God's word above social norms and culture? If you don't...

No more excuses. Find out what is God's will on how to approach the matter of marriage and do it. You need to be 100% honest when talking to a future partner.

Here's the honest answer: The biblical pattern does not permit men and women hanging around alone. It's not there in the entire Bible. When coming to marriage take advice from elders, pastors, godly elder folk. Let God make the way for marriage - not your lusts. In fact, when considering...

It is true that the prayer of faith heals the sick. It is also true that scripture talks about spiritual gifts that were practiced in the church. Sure, the "regular" members in the Corinthian church may not have had operated in the gifts of the Spirit like the Apostles did. I believe that may...

There are miracles that happen even today - healings, oh - how many cases where the doctors and stumped and unable to explain. Saved from accidents supernaturally, working of miracles as an answer to prayer, etc. The gifts of the Holy Spirit are listed in multiple epistles, and the churches...

That is one interpretation. Perhaps you are right... And every true manifestation of the operation of the gifts of the Holy spirit are in fact miracles done by the Holy Spirit.

Sometimes we face difficulties at work, and are made to look for another job or another team - remember that it may be the Lord's way of telling you that your time at that job is over, and that He has a new assignment for You. However, if the trouble at work is caused due to your own doing, it...

I am posting this, hoping that it would help someone.... Every job/employment that we are engaged in, is from the Lord. So, we thank Him for it. A prayer that I pray while at work is: Help me Father, today to work with the right mindset, looking unto You, knowing that this job is from You…...

1Cor 13:8 Love never fails; but if [there are gifts of] prophecy, they will be done away; if [there are] tongues, they will cease; if [there is] knowledge, it will be done away. 1Cor 13:9 For we know in part and we prophesy in part; 1Cor 13:10 but when the perfect comes, the partial will be done...

The ideal situation would be when both man and woman have had no sexual experiences and have kept themselves pure. And then coming together for marriage in holy matrimony, before God. This is God's original intended design. The more you align to that ideal, the more blessed the marriage will be...

Matt 18:7 "Woe to the world because of [its] stumbling blocks! For it is inevitable that stumbling blocks come; but woe to that man through whom the stumbling block comes! Matt 18:15 "If your brother sins, go and show him his fault in private; if he listens to you, you have won your brother...
