CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

I just read your other thread. You said:
"And every time we have "stumbled" we both repent together and move on and try to not to it again."
I am assuming you are meaning you have stumbled in the area of sex. Very common for someone your age.
You said you have this "feeling" that God wants you to break up. What more do you have than a feeling? Our own conscience can make us feel guilty for no reason; and you have experienced that yourself.
Without anything else to go on, I would chalk this "feeling" up to the same thing: you are trying to punish yourself for something, like you did in that other situation. Your stumbling, perhaps?
Don't throw away a good relationship without a good and SOLID reason.

Surrendering something to the Lord means it is available to HIM and at His disposal.
It does NOT mean throwing it away.

Whatever causes you to sin, cut it off for it is better to lose it here than suffer in hell for doing it. If you're not ready for marriage quit the relationship, it's not good for your Christian life when one keeps repeating certain sins. Needing sex is a good reason to get married, everything changes about sex when it's done with your spouse, it becomes legit and no more a sin
