    God's Favor?

    WRONG! Spoken like a typical unregenerate man. Read further.... “Defraud ye not one the other, except it be with consent for a time, that ye may give yourselves to fasting and prayer; and come together again, that Satan tempt you not for your incontinency.” — 1 Corinthians 7:5 (KJV) Key...

    God's Favor?

    Yes, and I have no problem with it ...for it says "as unto the Lord." If he desires of me something that is not pleasing to God ....it is better to obey God than man. Now....the same men who quote that verse most often ignore and completely avoid the verses that instruct them how they are to...

    God's Favor?

    You are placing your own interpretation on scripture. There is no mention of property there. Just because she is "his wife" does not make her his "property" any more than she having a husband makes him her "property." Use some common sense... if a man "has" a wife ...she also "has" a husband...

    Men, would you have problems being with someone who looks like a Mennonite?

    It's wonderful to see there are men with values in this day and age. To all of you men who comment on this thread as relating to a woman's true value ... do you have any input to add to this thread that seems to be in total opposition to what this thread is about? I would love to see some real...

    God's Favor?

    Man's opinions are not God's ...and neither are man's thoughts God's thoughts. Glass isn't made in the image of God. A woman is. You place much lower value on God's creation. This is pride. I hope you do not have a "wife." Nowhere in scripture does God say that a woman is property. Indeed, the...

    Do You Have Bread To Give?

    The next example is of a dream God gave me in 2007 that had a personal message, a broader message, as well as a specific message for a specific person. First, a bit of background... This was a very difficult time for me (to put it mildly) and the Lord had impressed on my heart to listen to a...

    God's Favor?

    For those who desire to understand from a genuine heart....this is an example of why I use the KJV. Other versions leave out huge portions of scripture, change and twist and distort meanings, and even leave out entire verses.

    Do You Have Bread To Give?

    I have never asked God to give me dreams for other people, and yet He has (given me dreams for/about others). Some, I've not felt led to share, but to pray for those individuals... or pray concerning what I was shown. God has even given me vision/dreams about people I've never seen before. In...

    Do You Have Bread To Give?

    I love this post! The Isaiah verse is what came to mind as I came across this thread.

    Embarrassed of this..

    I also dealt with this at times in the past to varying degrees. I know other trauma survivors who struggle with this. Once the source of stress is addressed and you're able to process through some things, it should get better.

    Hand vs Hand oxygen between?

    @Holy999 What are you trying to ask?

    God's Favor?

    No way, sis. You did nothing wrong. This is an issue the OP has with God and has nothing to do with anything you said or asked. *hugs*
  15. TLHKAJ

    God's Favor?

    Yes, I agree. But the OP is obviously either not a believer, or has been so wounded they do not know or care to know the character of God. If someone has had a real experience with God through Jesus Christ, their heart will seek Him out and desire to know Him deeper. And that means asking Him to...

    God's Favor?

    Those verses are speaking of consensual relations. I've addressed it 2 or 3 times. That is enough. You seem to have something against God and refuse to see the truth. That being the case, I believe I have no further need to discuss it .....with you. I will, however, discuss this with others who...

    God's Favor?

    Exactly. And she didn't resist, nor cry out. If it was force/rape, Holy Spirit would have inspired the writer to use another word as in verse 25, which is translated "force" but also could mean to seize upon, conquer, catch, prevail, restrain (you get the idea). Verses 28 and 29 are talking...

    God's Favor?

    There are a lot of ways of "crying out." When it is a child who is violated, the verses I quoted yesterday in the New Testament would apply. Someone has caused a "little one" to stumble or has offended a little one....woe to that person. But speaking out, breaking silence once a person feels...

    God's Favor?

    Plainly, verses 28 and 29 are not speaking about force. The previous verses were clearly speaking of force/rape. She cried out and did not consent. She was not in sin, but his sin was equated with murder and is worthy of death. In verses 28 and 29, she isn't betrothed and they both have...
