    Prayer Request Help me help my marriage

    Try cleaning up and dressing modestly out of reverence to God and see how it changes your husbands attitude. It could be a personal experiment. Your humility should make him ashamed & guilty if he has treated you poorly and he will apologize.

    Recurring Problem

    yeah I agree that this is complicated. Either the wife is completely selfish or the OP isn't telling the whole story and maybe he is at fault also. I don't think we can coax the errors of the OP out of him. I think getting a counselor is the best play. It seems like they don't talk and they need...

    Recurring Problem

    @Endeavourer it is a pretty good article. I am sympathetic to your statements. The article itself is written to a woman who is depriving her husband of sex. She obviously has some idea that this is wrong and has at least a hint of wanting to correct it. It doesn't seem like the OP's wife is...

    Recurring Problem

    your suggestion is to say he shouldn't bring up the bible because it might make her want sex less? He already isn't having sex. God isn't concerned with whether the wife or husband enjoys sex. That should be a given fruit of a godly marriage. He is concerned with the wellbeing of the marriage...

    Recurring Problem

    naw that is silly. He could be tempted to infidelity. He is already frustrated. Could easily turn to inappropriate contentography if not already. If they both are enjoying it then it sounds like a control issue or something.

    Recurring Problem

    Paul says not to abstain from sex unless there is an agreement because it can lead to infidelity. This is entirely logical and hard to say to your wife as it is usually taken as a threat. There needs to be a third party with authority to speak.

    Recurring Problem

    Bring it up to your pator if you consider this a serious issue. She cannot deny you sex on bibliCal grounds. Maybe God is using this opportunity to bring you closer to the fold. Send him an email as it might be hard to strike it up in general convo.

    From a Christian perspective, is there a right time for a baby?

    trust in God and he will bless the path you walk. Wanting a child is a good reason to have a child.

    Evidence for Christianity??

    the only requirement for a belief to be properly basic is for it to not be inferred from other beliefs. Sin accounts for the reason why people have varying false beliefs about God. Sin damages the sense of the divine and causes false beliefs to be made (similar to damaged eye sight). I am not...

    Evidence for Christianity??

    your sense of the divine is damaged by sin. That is why you believe atheism. >95% of the world believes in a god. Not sure how you arrive at the thought that nobody believes in God. The sense of the divine provides basis for belief in God but specific Christian truths are instigated in...

    Evidence for Christianity??

    I just did. Belief in God is not inferred from other beliefs. It is occasioned by a sense implanted by God called the sense of the divine.

    Evidence for Christianity??

    Evidence for Christianity is confirmed by the internal instigation of the Holy Spirit that witnesses to believers the truth about Jesus Christ. Belief in God is properly basic and is not inferred from other beliefs. In the same way rational persons arrive at the conclusion the external world...

    Crucifixion and forgiveness, a non sequitur

    Your objection is worthless. I already have answered that it only matters that his death satisfies God's retributive justice and that this is how God decreed sinners would be restored. This makes it necessary because God decided it would happen as such... Christ could not have died by slipping...
