Tough And Controversial Issues In Christianity by Nobody: 10:24pm On Jun 18, 2022 |
This is a question and answer space for tough and controversial issues in Christianity. Questions concerning foundations of our faith, doctrines, those that are not answered directly by the Bible, etc. The purpose is to reaffirm our beliefs, close denominational gaps, and have a good grasp of why we believe what we believe. Let's give ourselves a few guidelines: Start your first line with QUESTION or CONTRIBUTION * Questions should be clear and precise * Anybody can provide an answer based on the scriptures, or theological assertions, or historical facts. * Patience is key, people may need to make consultations, medications, research, etc. before finding answers. * Patience matters, please don't rush to answer any question, this is not a competition, think it through. * You can also provide insight into any topic instead of asking a question. * We may need to update this guidelines from time to time. |

Question Is there a particular one woman for man to marry, and vice versa? |
Kobojunkie: 11:10pm On Jun 18, 2022 |
crows2ravens:The idea of a particular man for a particular woman is not born of God who Instead said marriage is an agreement between a man and a woman. So long as any man and any woman agree to become husband and wife, marriage is established between the two. ![]() |

SHALOM! crows2ravens: GIVEN THE CURRENT SITUATION IN THE COUNTRY, IT IS HIGHLY DISAPPOINTING TO ME THAT YOU SHOULD OPEN SUCH A THREAD, WITH SUCH A QUESTION. I completely understand why you might find it a priority to know this.
All things that exist are created from a SPIRITUAL ENERGY IMAGE CALLED A FACSIMILE, which is a deliberately degraded duplicate of GOD. . JOHN 1:1-14. IN The Beginning was the Word, and The Word was with God, and The Word was God. 2. The same was in The Beginning with God. 3. All things were made by Him; and without him was not any thing made that was made. 4. In him was Life; and The Life was The Light of Men. 5. And The Light shineth in Darkness; and The Darkness comprehended It not. 6. There was a man sent from God, whose name was John. 7. The same came for a Witness, to bear witness of The Light, that all men through him might believe. 8. He was not That Light, but was sent to bear witness of That Light. 9. That was The True Light, Which Lighteth every man that cometh into the World. 10. He was in the World, and the World was made by him, and the world knew him not. 11. He came unto his own, and his own received him not. 12. But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, (even) to them that believe on his Name: 13. Which were born, not of blood, nor of the Will of the Flesh, nor of the Will of Man, but of God. 14. And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, [and we beheld his Glory, the Glory as of The Only Begotten of The Father,] full of Grace and Truth. YOCHANNAN'S BRILLIANT EXPOSITION IS MUCH PRIZED BY THE SHALLOW CHRISTIAN MAJORITY, WHO DO NOT CARE THAT IT VIOLATES THE TEACHINGS OF LORD YESHUA. . MATTHEW 11:25-30. 25. At that time Jesus Answered and Said, "I thank Thee, O Father, Lord of Heaven and Earth, because thou hast hid these things from the wise and prudent, and hast revealed them unto babes. 26. "Even so, Father: for so it seemed good in Thy Sight. 27. "All things are delivered unto me of my Father: and no man knoweth The Son, but The Father; neither knoweth any man The Father, save The Son, and he to whomsoever The Son will reveal him. 28. "Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. 29. "Take my Yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls. 30. "For my Yoke is easy, and my burden is light." . MATTHEW 16:13-28. 13. When Jesus came into the coasts of Caesarea Philippi, he Asked his Disciples, Saying, "Whom do men say that I The Son of Man am?" 14. And they said, "Some say that thou art John the Baptist: some, Elias; and others, Jeremias, or one of the Prophets." 15. He Saith unto them, "But whom say ye that I am?" 16. And Simon Peter answered and said, "Thou art the Christ, The Son of The Living God." 17. And Jesus Answered and Said unto him, "Blessed art thou, Simon Barjona: for Flesh and Blood hath not Revealed It unto thee, but my Father Which is in Heaven. 18. "And I Say also unto thee, 'THAT THOU ART PETER, AND UPON UPON THIS ROCK I WILL BUILD MY CHURCH; AND THE GATES OF HELL SHALL NOT PREVAIL AGAINST IT.' 19. "And I will give unto thee The Keys of The Kingdom of Heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt bind on Earth shall be bound in Heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt loose on Earth shall be loosed in Heaven." 20. Then charged he his Disciples that they should tell no man that he was Jesus The Christ. 21. From that time forth began Jesus to shew unto his Disciples, how that he must go unto Jerusalem, and suffer many things of the Elders and Chief Priests and Scribes, and be killed, and be raised again the third day. 22. Then Peter took him, and began to rebuke him, saying, "Be it far from thee, Lord: his shall not be unto thee." 23. But he turned, and Said unto Peter, "Get thee behind me, Satan: thou art an Offence unto me: for thou savourest not The Things that be of God, but those that be of men." 24. Then Said Jesus unto his Disciples, "If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me. 25. "For whosoever will save his life shall lose it: and whosoever will lose his life for my sake shall find it. 26. "For what is a man profited, if he shall gain the whole World, and lose his own Soul? Or what shall a man give in exchange for his Soul? 27. "For the Son of Man shall come in The Glory of his Father with his Angels; and then he shall Reward every man according to his Works. 28. "Verily I Say unto you, 'THERE BE SOME STANDING HERE, WHICH SHALL NOT TASTE OF DEATH, TILL THEY SEE THE SON OF MAN COMING IN HIS KINGDOM.' " . MATTHEW 24:1-5. AND Jesus went out, and departed from the Temple: and his Disciples came to him for to shew him the Buildings of The Temple. 2. And Jesus Said unto them, "See ye not all these things? Verily I Say unto you, 'THERE SHALL NOT BE LEFT HERE ONE STONE UPON ANOTHER THAT SHALL NOT BE THROWN DOWN.' 3. And as he sat upon the mount of Olives, the Disciples came unto him privately, saying, "Tell us, when shall these things be? And what shall be The Sign of thy Coming, and of The End of the World?" 4. And Jesus Answered and Said unto them, "Take heed that no man deceive you. 5. "For many shall come in my Name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many." . MARK 8:27-30. 27. And Jesus went out, and his Disciples, into the towns of Caesarea Philippi: and by the way, he asked his Disciples, saying unto them, "Whom do men say that I am?" 28. And they answered, "John the Baptist: but some (say), 'Elias;' and others, One of the Prophets.' " 29. And he Saith unto them, "But whom saith ye that I am?" And Peter answereth and saith unto him, "Thou art The Christ." 30. And he charged them that they should tell no man of him. . JOHN 6:42-47. 42. And they said, “Is not this Jesus, the son of Joseph, whose father and mother we know? How is it then that he Saith, ‘I CAME DOWN FROM HEAVEN?' " 43. Jesus therefore Answered and Said unto them, “Murmur not among yourselves. 44. "No man can come to me unless The Father Who hath sent me draw him; and I will raise him up at The Last Day. 45. "It is written in the Prophets: ‘AND THEY SHALL BE ALL TAUGHT BY GOD.’ Every man therefore that hath heard and hath learned From The Father cometh unto me. 46. "Not that any man hath seen The Father, save he that is of God; he hath seen The Father. 47. "Verily, verily, I Say unto you, 'HE THAT BELIEVETH ON ME HATH EVERLASTING LIFE.'

THERE ARE TWO TYPES OF AWARENESS: CHRONIC AND ACUTE. CHRONIC Awareness is the routine, rest state. ACUTE Awareness is the level attained while confronting a Dynamics Problem. If the necessary level is attained, the Problem will be overcome. If not, then the DYNAMIC will DICTATE the subject's disposition. Maynman: EVE AGREED TO BE A SLAVE TO THE SERPENT (5[suo]th[/sup] DYNAMIC,) WHEN SHE CHOSE TO OBEY HIM, RATHER THAN GOD. . GENESIS 3:14-19. 14. And The LORD God Said unto the Serpent, "Because thou hast done this, thou art Cursed above all Cattle, and above every Beast of the Field; upon thy belly shalt thou go, and dust shalt thou eat all the days of thy life: 15. "And I will put Enmity between thee and the Woman, and between thy seed and her seed; it shall bruise thy head, and thou shalt bruise his heel." 16. Unto the Woman He Said, "I will greatly multiply thy sorrow and thy conception; in sorrow thou shalt bring forth children; and thy desire shall be to thy Husband, and he shall rule over thee." 17. And unto Adam He Said, "Because thou hast hearkened unto the voice of thy wife, and hast eaten of the Tree, of which I Commanded thee, Saying, 'THOU SHALT NOT EAT OF IT:' Cursed is the Ground for thy sake; in sorrow shalt thou eat of It all the days of thy life; 18. "Thorns also and thistles shall it bring forth to thee; and thou shalt eat The Herb of the Field; 19. "In the sweat of thy face shalt thou eat bread, till thou return unto the Ground; for out of it wast thou taken: for dust thou art, and unto dust shalt thou return." EVERYTHING AND BEING GOD CREATES IS HIS RIGHTFUL SLAVE, WHOSE PURPOSE, SITUATION, AND FUTURE ARE DETERMINED BY HIM. Once anything or any being departs from GOD'S NARRATIVE, they take a NEW NARRATIVE upon themselves. GOD ISSUED NO COMMANDMENT AGAINST RAPE, IMPLYING THAT HE DOES NOT CARE WHOM MEN AND WOMEN MARRY: JUST THAT THEY CHOOSE LAWFULLY. Once that Choice is made, however, it is a CAPITAL SIN to alter It. |

Maynman: This is not that kind of thread. No insults please. If you don't consider yourself a Christian you have no business here. |
