Firstly, thank you for your post to get my attention. And although you may think I'm old fashion, I have no problems with that, in many things I am old fashion, from old school, and love it! But I see that you are in agreement with me, when I says, there must be self control and discipline. Your dad engaged to your mom, is the perfect example of self-control and disciple however, most men don't exercise such control or discipline if they are involved with a lot of hugging and kissing.
Secondly, as I commented on your post, I, personally, see nothing wrong with a hug and kiss here and there. I also agree with you in that, if you're dating someone who does not have self-control or discipline, its not going to work. And it does mean he can't handle his lust and will cheat on his mate, because he's weak in self-control and discipline, because he has not trained himself to not act upon his emotions or feelings in that area. Paul has written in I Corinthians chapter 7, that God has gifted each person with a measure of control, this is why he says if there is no control, let them marry.
Thirdly, please know that I am not trying to convince you one way or another as to who you kiss or anything else. That's your business and choice. You posted, and I responded to your post with my thoughts and opinion. It is your choice to no longer respond to what others post on the thread you start, but I don't think you can tell anyone to no longer post on that thread....
BTW, I am so very happy to hear that you have found someone you love and who loves you, and you will be getting married soon... will everybody from the board be invited to the wedding?:party: :winksmile:... Congrats!!
I'm not sure what is flirting but I don't believe in it that much.
Hugging before marriage is okay but kissing, I don't know. Depends where. There are many people that fool around a lot. So be careful. :)
I'm not sure what it means to be Boyfriend/Girlfriend but I do agree with you about getting married quickly. One thing for sure, I don't follow this world that much. :glow: So I am pretty odd. I usually see something troubling between Boyfriend/Girlfriend relationships and people ended up making mistakes which leads to sin. Also, they usually hate each other in marriage. Most people I talked to that is. They still ended up cheating on each other. Even if they are Christians. So just be careful on who you choose :)
Church is for worshiping God, bible study and meeting new people, also Church is for "RELATIONSHIPS".
And besides. We all are in a relationship. :) We all are friends :) right? :bouncy:
Good points. You do well to follow what you know to be right for you. My thought is that if when we were in the world we did our own thing and followed our own plan B. It would seem that now that wer're under a new authority and influence Christ and the Holy Sprit, we should be willing to follow their rules and their plan A... since our plan B never worked, we have need to turn around and follow Plan A.
We know for a fact that plan B didn't work, so why keep trying to make it work... keep it moving to what you know to be true and works. God's plan A... that means running away from even thenotion of sin.
I think I understand what you mean. Christianity is a new type of life style. Were not suppose to follow the pathway of this world. If something for example a movie. If you feel the movie is going to affect your heart; going against God's way. Then under our own authority we aren't suppose to watch it. Even though God does give us a freedom of choice. We have to be careful what we let in our hearts or we will end up being that way or getting hurt.
