Starting today August 7th, 2024, in order to post in the Married Couples, Courting Couples, or Singles forums, you will not be allowed to post if you have your Marital status designated as private. Announcements will be made in the respective forums as well but please note that if yours is currently listed as Private, you will need to submit a ticket in the Support Area to have yours changed.
What you believe isn't liveable unless you plan on getting together with a Man with no backbone. God has ordained the Man to be totally responsible for the leadership and direction of the household/marriage, again, not like a tyrant or with the wife having no say so whatsoever, but in the way that Christ loved the church, always in love, always with love in mind, always respectful of the woman, not like how women are treated in Sharia law countries.
Also what you said about no one having the right for a final decision, can you back that up biblically? A Man will be held more accountable for the relationship/marriage according to Scripture, when Eve sinned in the garden who was held finally accountable.. that's right, Adam, God looked for Adam.
Of course the spiritual health of a woman is just as important, but that's not to say that supercedes the authority of the Man of God when it comes down to who will be held ultimately accountable.
Really?
I'm not debating this with you. You keep your beliefs and I'll keep mine
Actually I agree with him.Don't accuse Chris.
Up to last night I woulda say as long as they're a Christian I'd go for it but last night I met this Christian who doens't believe in celebrating Christmas so my answer would be I'd prefer my denomination which is Pentecostal or something with close similar beliefs
:o No Christmas?
Always winter, but never Christmas....
It's like the bad days of Narnia!
i was pretty shocked:o No Christmas?

You beat me to the punchwhy not pentecostal?
GQ Chris, your statements are EXACTLY why I don't think I could date outside my denomination, because I agree with the way you illustrated the Man's role in terms of spiritual matters in the household and if I disagree with his denomination, I simply cannot compromise and this wouldn't work
I feel a bit too narrow-minded on this but I can't help it. Jesus was narrow-minded too (in terms of being the narrow door) and we all follow him...
i was pretty shocked
