Christians only. If I don't know anything about something that is good according to the Bible, how can I say I don't want it?

Can you say, "I want it, but I want it according to God's wiil"? Not everything that is good, is good all the time or good at just any old time. There is a time for everything under the sun, which means not every time is always the time for all things.

You'll have to be specific about what you mean. I have no clue what you're talking about.

You should not normally make decisions based on ignorance. However, there are times that you just have to take God at His word. It depends on context - what is the "good" you are referring to?

He is on the single forums, and his profile says he is celibate. He may be talking about marriage, and all that falls under that category.
That's what I was thinking.

You have to say it because you become one and that is for a man and his wife with marriage.

That is is one reason why I am still single and celibate for all these years of my life let's just say I am not young.
There are counselors for this kind of thing. So you go and get help and when you feel comfortable with what you learned you start dating and when you find the right one you get married and you will then be prepared. Or you can put it in Gods hands and pray that all will go well when you marry. Either way pray about it and expect an answer. You are absolutely not the first man that was a virgin.
Don't be embarrassed about it. You and your wife can always learn together.
God bless

I don't know the other side of it but it comes naturally when shared with a loved one.
