I was never meant to fit in and it's a blessing

I quoted Scripture that contradicts the phrase "faith alone" but this does not mean I believe we rely on ourselves for salvation. I think modern church is afraid of acknowledging and affirming works of faith. I see "faith alone" as church tradition, not Scripture. Scripture doesn't say we are...

Oh yeah, I definitely had to let some go for bad influence

Praise God

You are indeed right. I hope you know I love you, Sis. May God bless every area of your life mightily in Jesus' name.

@VictoryinJesus is indeed wonderful. I agree with that and about The Chosen.

I did suggest the same to him. I have no control over either of you. Its a suggestion that I think would help everyone. I dont control anyone. People will do as they please. Its my wish that this arguing would stop. But it could easily be wiser for me to just to ignore it from this point...

You don't have to respond either way. Not saying choosing that is the easy path. But it'd do some good.

My suggestion is that either or both of you stop responding to each other. No last word, no conclusion...just give it a rest. If you don't want to do that, I have nothing else to offer publicly. When I have a personal comment to make towards someone, I like to address it in a private message...

I now consider a friend someone who will actually help you if they can when you need it. I used to have friends that included me when it was convenient in plans they had already made but were actually jealous and backbiting towards me. I regret putting up with it for so long. Its hard to...

Forgiven! I don't always say the right thing and I haven't always sought peace on here. The beauty of a forum is that we don't need to respond to anyone right away or at all or explain why we didn't. There's plenty of times I just file posts away to read much much later when Im in a better...

Praying for peace to come. I want to say this carefully... Multiple multiple people are breaking the forum rule about not implying or saying that someone who calls themselves a Christian is not a Christian. Not choosing sides here, just a reminder that that sort of thing shuts down discussion...

Hi! Welcome! You sound similar to me! I married at 20. Hubby was 19. I believe in serving God, my husband, and caring for our children too! I'm not part of a denomination but I learned to love homemaking through a love of Scripture. I hope you like it here! I wish I knew more about Arkansas...

@Episkopos Hopefully Im not talking too much but my take on where I'm at now is that I'm sowing to the Spirit but have not overcome. I have to stay in the Scriptures every day and avoid all the bad music and content like the plague in order to not be carnal and sinful. So, it's not that...

God is doing this in His timing. He is faithful. Thanks for the detailed response. I appreciate what you said about sowing to the Spirit. How reaping can come both by increment and in full holiness. That makes sense to me and also is biblical. I confess, when you used the term "higher walk"...

Please describe biblical faith and what Im not understanding. On a side note, did you watch the video?

I consider works to have two, maybe three types: works of the flesh/following the Laws of Moses and works of faith following the law of Christ. Our commandment from the Lord is that we love one another---in action and practical help rather than just words. We feed hungry people. We give our...

I don't want to overthink it. I do want to say thank you. I can be mistrustful.

God has absolute power over creation. His authority is absolute. He's our Father. Rejecting patriarchy or father-rule is rejecting God's design. I support biblical patriarchy. Masculinity is good and it protects and supports feminity, like the OP explained. Saying male leadership is bad is...
