THE REASON WHY SHOPPING LISTS ARE WORTHLESS...
Posted : 30 Nov, 2010 09:59 AM
Ok, let's take a look at this thing of telling others through the profile, what you want, or desire...
Is the Lord interested in your SHOPPING LIST?
"I AM LOOKING FOR A GOOD CHRISTIAN MAN"
If he is a true believer, is it necessary to state that you want him to be "GOOD?"
"I AM SEEKING A MAN OF GOD, WHO IS HONEST, AND WHO SHARES THE SAME VALUES AS ME"
If he is a man of God, will he not be honest, and share the "SAME VALUES" as all true believers..?
"I AM A BORN AGAIN BELIEVER, WHO SEEKS THE SAME"
There is no such thing as "A BORN AGAIN BELIEVER", for it infers that there is such a thing as "AN UNBORN AGAIN BELIEVER"
"I AM BELIEVING GOD FOR A GOOD LOVING MAN"
If your Father, Who knows what you have need of before you ask Him, receives the request for someone to be in your life, will He not do you good, and not give you a scorpion..?
"I AM SEEKING SOMEONE WHO IS LOCAL"
What do you think this is, "A MAIL ORDER SERVICE" that delivers to your door? [which brings us to the next one]
"I AM NOT WILLING TO RELOCATE"
How can you be stating that you are willing to accomplish the will of God, to Whom all things are possible, if you do not believe that it is possible for God to send you anywhere.. of His choosing..?
And as for all of these other wants or desires, for people who like to have "FUN", and go "MOTORCYCLING", and who like to "SNUGGLE" or "KISS", and/or who wants "SOMEONE WHO IS ROMANTIC", what do you think God is..? A Genie, waiting on your every desire..?

have you ever seen the picture of jesus with his hands outstretched PC. He is welcoming the children to him. This is a loving act of compassion. :hearts:
Every one wants somebody with feelings to make them feel loved. God gave those things to us. It makes us feel loved and safe.
PC do you have feelings?
In another post you did not answer a womans questions.
Will you answer mine?
people who share the same interest get along.:applause:
A woman who attends church and is saved is a mature christian. :nicenurse:
"for we walk by faith, not by sight." [II Cor 5:7]
Feelings can be deceptive, which is why we as believers, and the children of Abraham, are admonished to walk by faith..
FEELINGS are relative to the senses, which are what is referred to as "sight".
If you are a true believer then you will live by Proverbs 3:5, 6: "TRUST IN THE LORD WITH ALL OF YOUR HEART AND LEAN NOT ON YOUR OWN UNDERSTANDING, IN ALL YOU WAYS ACKNOWLEDGE HIM AND HE SHALL DIRECT YOUR PATH."
"O LORD I KNOW THAT THE WAY OF MAN IS NOT IN HIMSELF, IT IS NOT IN MAN THAT WALKETH TO DIRECT HIS STEPS." [Jer. 10:23]
If you cannot know the way for you to go, and cannot figure it out, as a man of faith, then why would you want to just allow your emotions to lead you astray..?
"LOVE NOT THE WORLD, NEITHER THE THINGS THAT ARE IN THE WORLD, IF YOU LOVE THE WORLD, THE LOVE OF THE FATHER IS NOT IN YOU!" [I John 2:18]
John 13:35 also says that our love for one another will be how people will know we are Christ's disciples. Truth needs to be spoken with love, and you do a very poor job of that.
Speaking in love, my friend, is often misconstrued, because it involves a complex myriad of issues, ranging from emotions to wisdom..
Peter, for example, thought that love was rescuing Jesus from Malchus' sword, and delivering Jesus from the guards of the High Priest that had come to take Him..
Jesus, on the other hand, rebuked Peter telling him that they who lived by the sword would die by it, and He healed Malchus' ear, and went and accomplished eternal wisdom..
Two examples of truth, two examples of love; one perceived the other genuine..
Somehow I don't think that treating others as beneath yourself qualifies as any sort of love. Try engaging people and building a relationship with them instead of jumping down their throat for every perceived flaw you can find, and you'll be surprised how much more receptive they are to you and what you have to say.
3 Do nothing from selfishness or empty conceit, but with humility of mind regard one another as more important than yourselves; 4 do not merely look out for your own personal interests, but also for the interests of others.
... Could the people who run the site copy and paste the verse Cobbler posted somewhere in the posting form, like maybe above the smilies as a reminder? That'd be awesome.
Your advice has been crafted by the philosophy of man..
I am not interested [for example] in YOUR ADVICE ON HOW TO APPEASE MEN, but am led of the Spirit.. and care not what they do through their behavior, for it only demonstrates their nature, if they do react and get ugly..
"FOR AS MANY AS ARE LED BY THE SPIRIT OF GOD, THESE ARE THE SONS OF GOD!"
My standing for the pure gospel, is what upsets you folks so much. You take your counsel to be so heavenly.. and whenever I [or anyone else] state anything that goes contrary to man's greatness [which is man's gospel] and spiritual fitness, you go off..
Jeremiah wrote that no man knows his way through life, and you want the world to take its counsel from you [men that is]..
"O LORD I KNOW THAT THE WAY OF MAN IS NOT IN HIMSELF, IT IS NO IN MAN THAT WALKETH TO DIRECT HIS STEPS." [Jer. 10:23]
3 Do nothing from selfishness or empty conceit, but with humility of mind regard one another as more important than yourselves; 4 do not merely look out for your own personal interests, but also for the interests of others."
The previous passage is for the Children of God to obey, and if anyone is not of us [the elect], it is of no use to attempt to employ it, for it was never designed to water the seed in satan's brood..
Also, please show me, and the world, where I have been selfish, or acted in vain conceit, and did not regard the well being of the Body of Christ..?
My ministry, decreed from all eternity, is to assist in clarifying the differences between the two, and to this end I do attend..
The problems, again, with some of you, is that you are more interested in [my] getting along with the world, that is demonstrating it hatred of me [and thus its nature], than you are that man not think that rubbing mud and dust from the ground onto their faces means that they are attractive..
MAKE-UP is simply one pretending to be someone other than who the Lord made them to be..
BE REAL, and BE PLEASED WITH THE WAY THE LORD MADE EACH OF YOU!
Think about it..
I do not apologize for telling men, that other men telling them that they need face paints, only to generate capital, is wisdom; it is purely Luciferianism..
