kleisto,there's one God who is the God of gods.His path is narrow.Very few find him;those who seek with determination.There's satan who also answers prayers esp when one prays to false gods.That's why even a stone will answer if you believe in it but it's not God.If you find God or when he finds you,you'll know by the Spirit.Eckankar will take you on an astral 'spiritual' journey till you get to a blue light which they worship from a distance as God.That's the gate of Heaven.They don't enter cos, no Christ!

Sin is disobedience to the one true God, whose only begotten Son is Jesus Christ. To appreciate the meaning of the term, we need to study God's word and gain wisdom; that is the yard stick. An Islamic fundamentalist may believe that killing innocent people will lead him to paradise. Such errorneous belief does not change the nature of sin. Fornication is likewise a sin, its social acceptance notwithstanding. It is something we have to learn and there is almost zero spirituality in a sinful person.

I used to be lonely. Drowned the feeling in booze and women until Christ found me. Now we are happy together. It's the best thing that ever happened to me.

Love means sticking with him or her. When you are not married, you should develop agape love - give without seeking any advantage for yourself. Filial love is for married couples - Husbands, love your wives and be prepared to give up your life for her. Wives, submit to your husbands. Outside this, love does not exist -romantic love is usually selfish. It is essentially lust. If you understand this, you won't be bitten a second time. Friendship is good; it's agape love. This is wisdom, be wise.

Every woman has good and bad qualities.What a man likes in one woman may be detested by another; for example, independence. Some men like independent women while some like their women totally dependent on them.But in the context of this topic, we ought to seek compatibity and companionship - who best complements us. There are relationships that build up the couple and there are some that destroy. IMHO we all should seek partnerships that will enhance us and not diminish us; and to this, only God will lead.

WOW

Some guys could be worth it.

I guess most are married and the rest are too scared to...

RainbowTrout: i guess that's what it eventually boils down to. whether we are willing to give up the world for Christ? for those of us HE has given a second chance at life, it would be selfish not to give it back to him. again, we'll all die anyway, so why not invest what's left of this life in Christ so we will reap eternally? carrying your cross is saying yes to Truth and daring d devil, the ruler of this world. it really takes guts (faith) to do this. the way to life is narrow few there are that find it

Christianity is simple; obey the Master's command at all times, and the Holy Spirit will guide you in all things. Then the spirit of lust will flee, and you'll keep him out!

If your child's dad wasn't good enough for you, what's the guarantee that i'll be? A guy stands the risk of getting used and dumped.

I agree that culture clash should be addressed. What is accepted as normal in one culture may be taboo in another, eg infidelity, divorce....

You'll have to visit africa to find a real black man; unadulterated and pure?

Seek, and you shall find.
You might just get him!
