Hey Laloni!
Sorry your question was deleted before I got to it. If you want to re-ask it, I'll be glad to give it a go.

Hmmm.. now that's a hard one!
Probably "Law & Order"... I watch all the re-runs now (or try to anyway) and they've got like 10 years of shows to choose from, so there a wide variety.

All creation points to the almighty Creator.
I have asked question to my priest but he wrote to me that was a intresting question but he couldn`t answer that
How can we explain for people that Jesus must have a adopted father if the everything should be fullfilled? The Jews say it must be a biological father if the Messiah come from Juda tribe.If you find any scripture that can explain this I`m happy.Maybe some scripture that is clear on this I should be more happy.

Actually... "Jewishness" or lineage is determined by Jews by the mother, not the father. Even today, if your mother is Jewish, you're considered Jewish regardless of what the father may be.
Reason? Until modern DNA, you couldn't always prove who the father was, but you always knew for certain who the mother is...

As a teenager, your body is working overtime right now-- and hormones go absolutely crazy (as you obviously know).
Some very practical methods of dealing with the excess sexual energy that is kicking in...
1) Exercise... there's a reason people joke about taking a run around the block or hitting a punching bag.
2) Redirecting yourself... again, taking a cold shower may be a cliche, but there's a reason... finding something else that will distract you or make you feel "less sexual" for a bit can help.
3) Spend lots of time in public places (at the mall, with friends, or whatever).
4) Find an accountability/prayer partner-- someone your age from your church (who will be going through the same thing as you, since all 15 year old boys do).. and when you are feeling tempted, call each other up and pray for each other.
I hope this helps a bit.
Blessings!

Thank you for the reply.I know that.So you mean that we can`t give evidence from the Bible that Jesus must be adopted from Josef to fulfill the prophecies.How shall we then explain for the jews people that Jesus was Messiahs? I have seen here that`s important for them.Ususally I always find answer over problems I have in the Bible when I talk to people even if that can take days
Why have god then inspired Luke to write Luke 3:23 - 38 if that wasn`t important to proof something?

Actually, it is the Gentiles who usually use the father's genealogy to determine lineage.. and in scripture we see both Mary and Joseph's lineages listed.Thank you for the reply.I know that.So you mean that we can`t give evidence from the Bible that Jesus must be adopted from Josef to fulfill the prophecies.How shall we then explain for the jews people that Jesus was Messiahs? I have seen here that`s important for them.Ususally I always find answer over problems I have in the Bible when I talk to people even if that can take days
Also, Jesus was formally registered as Joseph's son-- thereby, legally making him of the lineage of David through Joseph, even though Joseph was not his biological father.

When you formally registered a child then can`t even the Jews or muslims say something if I understand you correct
It`s so few examples on adoption in the Bible I could only find Genesis 15:2 - 4 that have with the father to do
Thank you very much

There is Sunshine in my soul :)
Have you watched the movie 'Amanda'? During part of it (not the main story), a horse goes into the Priest's side of the confessional box while a little boy is talking to God, and listens in... 
hehe...
But yes, it's a very good movie - very moving.
How old do you have to be before you go along to confession?

edit options struggle - emails sent to me constantly
The other day I went to the edit/options section of my webpage here on CF.
I was checking something out.
I started getting emails sent to me by CF telling me that other members were making posts to the 56 or so threads I visited recently. I started getting 24 emails at a time. I am still getting those emails.
I thought there may have been an error made when I was at edit/options so I went there again & I have been there several times.
Anytime there are posts to any of the threads I've visited I get emails about it . During heavy online traffic times I am getting emails coming in to my personal email acct. on my outlook express (a business email address) rather rapidly. Lots of deletions because the messages is always the same ---> someone just posted a reply on one of those threads.
I went to some of the threads and asked if anyone else had it happen to them. They told me to once again check and make sure my edit/options had the spot checked that made sure I did not want to receive emails -- I checked it again. NO EMAIL NOTIFICATIONS is the thing I have checked.
I sent a message to one of the people at CF that helped me with a problem before. She told me to post a message on the how to forum because as far as she knew the checking of the spot that says NO EMAIL NOTIFICATIONS and then saving my changes should take care of the situation.
I am posting this because I don't know what to do next.
I am not getting emails at nearly 2 AM possibly because most of the people that post on the threads I've been using are not online right now. This isn't a normal hour for them to be posting.
ORRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR.... finally the system found out I didn't ask for those emails and I don't want them.
IF anyone knows what I can do to get this repaired please leave a message here or send a message my way.
Thanks and God bless you all.

Hi, I Am In A Bad Marriage And Prior To Going In The Marriage, I Was Told That We Were "unequally Yolked", But Love And Youth Blinded My Vision. Does God Ever Change Or Fix People To Make Them Equally Yolked? As Far As Infidelity Goes?
