    nagging because she doesn't listen

    Hi there, i'm engaged and getting married soon. Anyway i just want to get to the point and it's the reason why i came back to CF after so many months/years. We quarrel quite often maybe once a week. And i realise the reason why that happens is because she doesn't listen and i nag/criticise, and...

    Should I eat breakfast or not?

    Hi there. Good point there. Gen 9:3 does seem to say that all moving things are to be food for you. However, if we were to read this as is, then we would have big problems about continuity. You can draw out a timeline of all texts which unequivocally talk about clean/unclean animals and you...

    Should I eat breakfast or not?

    BFA, you're missing my point. If the host was my friend, he/she would know my dietary habits so them knowing isn't the issue. If he somehow forgets it and whips out pork for breakfast, i'll just remind him again and he will be fine with it. Perhaps others in the group will eat it. It's not an...

    Should i have told my friend it was wrong to do this?

    why did the guy punched him first? was it because your friend spewed verbal abuse on him? My advice is get the full picture if you want to decide. It doesn't matter who hit who first. It matters who initiated the enmity between them. Violence is not encouraged by God because each of us are his...

    Working on the Sabbath....

    hey Fiona82, you're going to get alot of different responses because this forum has people from different denominations who will give different answers. My advice is you start somewhere and start questioning. You can start here which will deal with sabbath/sunday on a question/answer basis. If...

    Honor thy parents situaiton?

    yup it's not honoring the parents by giving them full details coz if you had told them the whole story they might have reacted differently. So now since you want to keep it quiet, act like a christian man and settle the problem yourself. Go to school and start making friends rather than enemies.

    Should I eat breakfast or not?

    I'll choose none of the options. I'll ensure situation doesn't come to this stage by telling the host that i'll be preparing my own breakfast the next day or going out to have breakfast or i would have sounded out his knowledge of Adventism. But in the first place, if he's a friend willing to...

    Unclean foods

    hi suzybeezy, this is one of the differing points of christianity. Most of christendom believes that it's no longer necessary to have such food distinctions of clean/unclean. However, i strongly do not hold this view as i believe that not all food can be fit for eating. Just think about it, if...

    how can i Dealing with my expectations before getting into a r/s.

    Hi guys/gals, i'd like to seek some perspectives on what i'm struggling with right now. I'm not in a r/s currently but have been through 2 of them. The last one ended about 3 months ago. I know the concept about love languages by Gary Chapman and have been trying to know myself better through...

    Internet usage increases loneliness

    i agree with the radio program..being online cuts the same amount of time offline and a chance to meet with real people. Unfortunately, i'm online at work and at home and i'm actually struggling to get my butt out there to meet people. It takes more effort to do that in real life than in the...

    Relationship help, please. =(

    Hey Trevor, i read your first post and it sounded off alot of warning bells in me because of the following: 1) You both are in a sexual relationship that is not within the confines of a marriage relationship and which is built on knowing/accepting/understanding each other. Previous posters...

    What exactly is sinning?

    “Sin is the transgression of the law” (1 Jn 3:4) even as “love is the fulfilling of the law” (Rom 13:10)—that is, “law” in the sense of all of God’s revealed will, and especially the Decalogue, which epitomizes all that God requires of man (see Ec...

    Is this a SIN?

    At first glance, that site isn't one which gives me the confidence and security that makes me believe that it's genuine. I would say save the $20.

    Discouraged in ministry

    Just my 2 cents. I'm also involved in a couple of ministries in church but i'm very careful (unconsciously) that i don't get burned out. I try to take things as i can and not force myself to do things i don't like. IOW, i try to take up tasks that don't drain me out so much that after a while i...

    feeling pretty down

    hey runningman..i just have one advice for you. Believe in God that He can forgive your sins. But we gotta do our part to to get past those temptations. Read the passage when Jesus was tempted three times. What did he do? He quoted scripture? Apparantly he had memorized God's word in him already...
