    its ok for man to cry

    I can't cry and it kills me. It feels like I have a heart of stone. I have prayed and pleaded for a soft heart, but I can't cry. I hear of people weeping over their sin and I am so jealous because I want that but can't. I used to cry a lot as a child, and my sisters teased me for it. One day...

    What have you done...

    I have vacuumed a lot more rugs in my life than I ever would have thought growing up! My wife and I both work so I help around the house. I enjoy it though because it makes her happy. I have done things like spend up to 6 hours in a mall, while she tries on clothes. That is something I wouldn't...

    hmmm....

    I have been married for two years and there are a few things women want out of a relationship. 1)Above all else they want to feel loved. Show them you care by doing special things, tell them you love them, buy her a gift, suprise her. Women love that. 2)Be a leader. The Bible says men are...

    How can I tell someone they can be saved?

    I will cut right to the point I come from a mennonite family who does not believe that a person has the right to say they are saved. "That is up to God to descide" they say. The problem I have with that is it is false, and every time I bring it up they say "it says you shall be saved, not...

    how long have you been a Christian?

    I became a christian when I was 18. I was born into a mennonite home where you had to follow certain things like, don't watch TV, play competative sports, stuff like that, and I always thought I was a christian as long as I did those things, but praise Jesus for opening my eyes to how really...

    self pleasure

    MB is misuse of your sexual power. I know when I used to do it it was always accompanied by pornography or fantasy about the pornography. I don't believe that a Christian who really looks at the example given by Jesus, can say "There is nothing wrong with masturbation." People say "there is a...

    Are young marriages the solution to sexual immorality among teens and young adults?

    OK well I voted yes, but under a few conditions. I got married when I was 19 and my wife was 18. I had a lot of people tell me, "Dude you gotta live a little". "You are way too young" I know I am young, but I knew what I wanted. I wanted to serve God as best I could. Being married was the best...

    Switching Churches

    I was raised in a mennonite home, and was instilled with those values. For those of you who don't know, Mennonites are sort of like the Amish, just not quite so 19th century. Anyway up until a few weeks ago I attended a church where I grew up in. In this church there is no electricity, the men...

    Why is divorce never allowed?

    It is like a song I recently heard where the singer asks his wife why they are still together and their friends are breaking up and she replies, "Because we are doing what we promised to do." When you get married you promise to be there, for better or worse. When you get a divorce you are...

    What is your attitude towards war?

    I honestly cannot give an educated answer to that subject. The teachings of Jesus, about loving your enemies would seem to be against war, But at the same time, God led many people through battles eg. David and Goliath, so I don't know for sure.

    Smart Girl

    A young woman with obvious liberal tendances, explains to her class of small children that she is an atheist. She asks the class if they are atheists too. Not knowing what it means, but wanting to be like their teacher, hands shoot up like fleshy fireworks. There is however one exception, a...

    Can you loose your salvation?

    I don't know, I really wish we were once saved always saved. But if that were the case then why did the prayer that Jesus gave us say, "forgive us our debts as we forgive our debtors"? If we have been forgiven already and are eternally secure, why would Jesus tell us to ask for forgivness...

    Double Dip

    This is just an interpretation but Ephesian 4:5 says "One Lord, one faith, one baptism." Now in my upbringing being baptised more than once was a big no no. Based on this verse. I think when you are baptised, you have died to sin. You have died with Christ. You are a new person. If you get...

    Baptized

    I drunk man was wandering by the river when a preacher came up to him and asked if he would like to find Jesus. The drunk replied "Yes". So the preacher took him by the hand, led him to the water and dunked his head in the water. When he came up he asked if he had found Jesus. The drunk replied...

    Overeating

    This has to be one of the most overlooked sins in the Christian community. Why is it that we do this? Why can't we stop when we are satisfied? How come do we have to see if we can cram more food into our systems than is necessary? I for one have had a problem trying to keep my wieght in check...

    day 2

    Being a Christian rules. It is not going to be easy but with the help of Jesus you can accomplish anything. Here are some of my guidlines or my rules of life if you will: Read your Bible daily. At least one chapter. Don't go reading 20 chapters and then expect to be able to keep up that pace...
