  • 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.

Hi folks.
I am in this relationship since december. My girlfriend is not a Christian. She accepted me because she promised me to become Christian in the near future because of my testamony. She had problems in the past with the people who betrayed her and sexualy abused. Her parents are so greateful that someone like me love a "complicated" girl like her.

The problem is that she has anxiety issues (someties she wants to be alone). My pastor told me that he felt in the Holy Spirit that in her body is a war of bad spirits. There are times when she wants to know more about the Gospel and Jesus and times when she reject Him and become isolated.

She wants to see a therapist because she doesn't want to be bad for me (even though I have peace and patience with her). She wants to take a break.

What should I do ? I don't want to break up with her, becuase belive that Jesus can heal her.

Honestly, missionary dating never really works that well. If your faith is important to you then it's better to be with someone with the same views. Otherwise, it will constantly be a battle in your relationship. She should become a Christian because God changes her , not so she can impress the guy she's dating or because she feels she has to in order to be with you. It sounds like she has a lot of issues and she should probably be in therapy already on her own to be a healthy person on her own not to be the perfect candidate to date you.

Do not get married if she is not a Christian or it will cause a lot of problem. It is good that she wants to see a therapist, let her and support her. Then help her get counseling from a pastor as well. Pray for her, pray unceasingly and consistently.

She asked me if I can go with her at the therapist a few sessions. Is this a good sign?

I think it is a positive thing that she is willing to go to therapy and get well. It is a sign that she wants to be helped and maybe a sign that she might be open to spiritual healing and not just physical healing. You can work with her and you don’t need to give up on her. She might truly become a Christian down the road, just don’t give in to any temptation and always be cautious about God’s admonition about marriage.
