    Spiritual attacks, with one in particular. I'm urgently seeking prayer.

    Since around March 2016, I have been experiencing spiritual attacks. They have been centred on many areas of my life, including family, school, friends, work, and especially what I strongly believe is my calling from God. I strongly believe that God is calling me to serve Him in a country on a...

    I was born and live in New Zealand, and I have been to Australia, Singapore, Malaysia and Japan. I hope to visit all five continents in my lifetime. How about you all?

    Knock-offs / fakes

    What is your view of them? Do Christians have any place buying or selling them? Including unbranded goods with Disney characters printed on, etc.

    Women and head coverings

    I was just reading 1 Corinthians and happened upon the verses about women wearing head coverings. That got me wondering why we don't do it. I don't know a single Christian woman who always has her head covered. It seems to be common for the Amish and cult members. It's not an Old Testament law...

    Please pray for my mental wellbeing

    Lately I have been having clearly evil thoughts, telling me to do evil, and making me feel guilty whenever I do ANYTHING (if that makes sense), thereby I am really struggling with judging what is sinful or not and I'm feeling helpless, and all of this scares me. I also haven't been able to focus...

    Visiting temples and shrines as tourism

    I have been to Japan twice and am going back again in a month. Japan is well known for its beautiful temples and shrines, and I have visited quite a few of them, including the huge Buddha in Nara. My question is, what do others think about visiting places of non-Christian religious...

    BF-GF relationships sinful?

    After all, they are not in the Bible, and are not part of the Biblical model for finding a marriage partner. I believe that they have no place in Christian life. In my opinion, there should be no commitment until marriage is proposed and decided. The BF-GF relationship is just pointless, and...

    Contraception sinful?

    Disclaimer: I know that this is a singles' forum and therefore none of us should be in a position in life to be using or contemplating contraception. So I know that there are some very vocal parties who are anti-contraception and believe that as one of the main purposes of marriage is to be...

    What Does the Bible Say About Dolls? Is It Idolatry?

    I came across this article: http://www.jesusthedeliverer.org/idol-and-images/ when I was searching about deliverance from evil, exorcisms etc. It claims that anything like a doll or toy or cartoon that depicts a human, animal or celestial being is idolatry violates the second commandment and...

    Disney, magic and witchcraft

    I've heard that Disney is filled with witchcraft and Satanic themes. Obviously there is "magic" in most movies. Also people have pointed out that three sixes can be found in the logo. However, each movie seems to promote good over evil, so I'm troubled as to what stance to take on it. I welcome...

    Confessions of lying

    I lied to my boss a few weeks back. He called me and I didn't answer the phone, but he could see through our security camera system that I was using my phone at the time. He called me out on it and I lied and said that I was searching something for a customer. I'm suffering from guilt now, and I...
