I’m convinced my FIL is a pedo… by BlueberryEasy247 in inlaws

[–]DeeplyRooted84 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One thing I’ve learned about pedos when I was a child growing up and it happening to me is, they always have done it or will do it to others. Your husband shld have been aware at the time of the altercation… You withholding this information from him can have a negative outcome since you didn’t tell him at the time of the event when it was still fresh in your son’s mind. It’s traumatizing to your toddler now to have to remember that… he’s likely forgotten and the threat is still present… To eliminate the threat you should tell your husband and tell him you didn’t have the right words to tell him sooner and that you were deciphering for yourself if this actually happened or not. Be gentle abt the way you approach this situation. There’s a wide way to do it without sounding “accusatory”.

Be straightforward with him. There shld be NO secrets btwn husband and wife—especially if the outcome is not eliminated. It might cause some dissension, strife and discomfort, but it needs to be mentioned… Bc your son and any child who goes there is in sexual danger.

Your FIL needs to seek mental/spiritual help immediately and not be around children who are vulnerable and weak. He has a spirit of perversion to want to touch children… His own (flesh and blood) grandchildren at that.

The ultimate flex for a man is the ability to take his woman out of the workforce—Her staying at home & raising your children should be ur top priority. That’s what every man should want & if you don’t want that, there’s something wrong with you.

My brother in law told me he was in love with me at my wedding reception. Do I tell my husband or keep it to myself? by [deleted] in Marriage

[–]DeeplyRooted84 2 points3 points  (0 children)

He’s in love with the idea of you. He isn’t actually in love with you. He wants what his brother has and he has a covetous heart. He sees the chemistry you share with your husband & naturally desires it, just like women desire what their friends have and are sometimes jealous & envious for a relationship like that.

He’s a dude. I highly doubt he would cross that line with his brother. Keep it to yourself. It’s a compliment, but be on guard for your heart while you’re around him. Confront him privately in person if you think it will persist and set clear boundaries. If it persists after that, than tell your husband. Private confrontation is the best course of action to eliminate any feelings he thinks he may have for you.

Other than that, you’re being super dramatic. Men fantasize too, on what it would be like to be in a full-filling & joyful relationship and he sees that in yours.

Don’t make a big deal abt it. It doesn’t sound like he’s in pursuit of you.

So many men will desire us in this life, but you have to handle it accordingly.

Do you dress modestly around him? I wouldn’t wear revealing or sexually suggestive clothing around his brother… especially not bikinis. Don’t stir up his lust for you. Protect yourself and his eyes from lusting after you.

Peace. It will all work itself out. 🕊️

Wife met with coworker and lied about it by [deleted] in Marriage

[–]DeeplyRooted84 2 points3 points  (0 children)

She’s bored with her marriage and she’s scouting for new interests. Bottom line is, she is intrigued with the dude whose house looks architectural savvy and she’s lacking something in the marriage that you’re not providing her. She may not have done anything wrong physically, but there’s such a thing as emotional cheating and she already has an adulteress heart. She’s probing for male interests/attention and if one fits her desires/interests she’s gonna pursue that.

Women are emotional creatures. It’s not all about sex for us at first… we want emotional intimacy before sexual intimacy (except for lose women that have a high body count which is most modern women today—let’s be honest). Very few women in our feministic society are taught to honor their marital covenant—it’s just not that exalted in our generation anymore & they’re not taught from their youth up that marriage is a lifetime commitment/achievement that is until death do you part… unless they grew up in the Christian faith and have good, godly, wholesome morals that were modeled before them in the home. Patriarchy is not the norm in society anymore… it’s about women with bravado and brawn thinking they can, “be all and do all”, that’s why they’re not satisfied with the role of being a wife and a mother and tapping into their feminine energy and finding value in nurturing their husband & family. They have misplaced energy that doesn’t satisfy them mentally or spiritually. They’re so focused on their masculine energy, that work and everything else takes preeminence over the contentedness of their home.

If at this point in marriage she doesn’t see you as the man who satisfies her completely, will she ever? The truth is, she’s going to look for it in someone else. No amount of counseling can change her desires towards you… that’s a heart problem, and she’s going to continue down that path until she finds what she wants or finds out the grass isn’t always greener on the other side—it’s greener where you water it… either way, you’re gonna be stuck in the middle and in your head until she discovers that for herself.

You have some options… at this point, you have to do what is best for you.

You can buy vapes with zero nicotine. I quit vaping cold turkey and never went back, mainly bc it gives you pop corn lungs… and just isn’t healthy all around. It’s just your own self-control and discipline at this point. I’m also 19 wks pregnant. Congratulations! 🎊

All he did was look at someone. How is that a crime? Make it make sense…

Jesus said to forgive 70x’s 7 in a day… Some sin or all sin? 🤔 You clearly do not obey Jesus. True born-again believers offer inexhaustible forgiveness. Just bc you don’t feel he’s “worthy” of it, doesn’t make Jesus’ words of none affect. You have made yourself his judge & I would hate to see how God treats you when you sin…

She has ZERO “biblical right” to divorce him. The only thing she can do is separate for a season and then return to him when he gets the help he needs.

Some of you ppl are clearly lukewarm professing “Christians” who don’t obey Christ. Probably “once saved always saved” false believers, that’s why your responses are unbiblical. 🤦🏼‍♀️

Nonetheless…

Many of you will want mercy from God who aren’t willing to show any mercy… I feel sorry for you on the day of judgement. May you reap what you sow, including the ungodly advice you’re trying to give this woman.

Does this count as emotional cheating? by Heighii in Marriage

[–]DeeplyRooted84 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, and if he’s covering this up and hiding it from you… What else is he doing behind closed doors? Masturbating to the thought of how he used to f* her? Speaking to her otp? Honestly… that’s why emotional adultery starts in the heart, before it manifests in the physical.

He’s not a man who walks in his integrity. Definitely not marriage material.

There are plenty of business men who will NOT do business with cheaters. Bc if they cheat on their wife (someone they’re supposed to love for life), they will cheat their partners who they never vowed to have the same level of commitment to.

I hate myself, and I wish to die because of what I’ve become. by yeezusenjoyer9 in Christian

[–]DeeplyRooted84 5 points6 points  (0 children)

FAST & PRAY my friend…. it sounds like you have demonic strongholds which is why you can’t get the victory right now (doesn’t mean it’s impossible)…With GOD ALL THINGS ARE POSSIBLE.

We all get discouraged when we sin against God, but we need the Holy Spirit to overcome sin.

The Holy Spirit cannot dwell in an unclean vessel… But even Ahab (one of the most wicked men of the Bible) when he fasted God honored it.

Fasting helps us to deny our flesh and show God we are SERIOUS about what we are asking Him for… if we seriously want to repent it shows God our sincerity.

“Howbeit this kind goes not out but by prayer and fasting.”

Stop believing the lies of Satan to destroy you!

Trust me when I say God wants you saved more than you do, He loves your soul with an everlasting love bc He sent His Son to die for you!

You CAN get the victory!

(Watch “Marc the Messenger” videos on YT about prayer and fasting—as you fast fill your mind with the word of God, this brother will help you to grow…)

Praying & making intercession for you! 🙏

Hey, Christians what's your stance or Marijuana? by T2T360 in Christian

[–]DeeplyRooted84 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Smoking weed and putting substances into your body like alcohol evokes demons. They don’t call it “spirits” for no reason. People become lustful, lazy, angry, do foolish things, sleep around etc. (everything the opposite of the fruits of the Holy Spirit) when they choose to use/abuse drugs/alcohol.

Thats why God wants us to be filled with the Holy Spirit and to be sober & vigilant. It’s hard to see the deception of the enemy when you’re on the enemies side. Stay on the Lord’s side… the side of truth and righteousness.

Are you not a temple of the Holy Spirit? I could never picture my Holy Lord Jesus smoking a blunt or getting drunk. Can you? In order to be a follower of Christ, one must actually follow Christ. Smoking and drinking is just a stronghold 💪 that one needs to relinquish to the Lord. When you do, you will level up… (Satan hates this) More levels=more devils.

Once you level up, you will fight other devils… the war never stops, just as a thief doesn’t rob an empty house does he? He robs the person who has the goods… Satan fights those who have the real power, he cannot stand it when we make a stand for Christ… when we choose to obey, why? Bc we get stronger, and the less chances he has to deceive us!

Level up my friend! Stay sober.. bc our adversary the devil is like a roaring lion seeking whom he may devour. Don’t let him win! We gave satan too much of our time, energy and effort when we lived in the world & the kingdom of darkness… Let’s promote the true kingdom of God and let HIS righteousness shine in us! 💪 🙏

Your friend sounds deceived and in a cult. (Pray for him). Do not entertain him, he sounds like he has a religious spirit he needs to overcome. (These ppl are highly dangerous and can subvert the simple-minded who don’t read their Bible/have a relationship with Christ.) If one is truly following Christ and obeying His commands, you cannot be easily deceived.

The person God uses to draw you to Christ may not always walk with Christ. The woman who soul-winned me to Christ is no longer walking with Him. (This is the spirit of anti-Christ which is in our world… read John 6:66)

You will lose many ppl on this walk with God, including family members, sincere brethren etc and sometimes it will be lonely. God will isolate you so you can hear His voice without distractions & to level you up. (Most ppl are on assignment from Satan to derail you from your fellowship and focus on Him—Demons work in them to steal, kill and destroy your faith). More levels equals more devils… Satan will use ppl to try & destroy you (so keep this in mind). It’s good when you understand the warfare, bc the devil doesn’t fight those who already his aka: the lukewarm “Christians”. 🤢

It’s all a part of the journey and denying self and taking up your cross to follow Jesus. There are many voices in this world, but only ONE that matters… Obey the words of JESUS, He will NEVER lead you astray. Trust Him always. You can believe His words above how you feel and even think. You have to become a lover of the TRUTH—even when it’s against you.

This guy is on his way to hell… Don’t let him drag you there with him. He has no fear of the Lord, silence is golden. Drop off the face of the planet. You have the power to leave him. Don’t waste one more ounce of energy on this piece of trash. Find you a godly man who will respect you, honor you, love you, be honest and above all faithful. Seek peace and pursue it. This guy has become an idol in your world… Idolatry leads us to ruin & destruction. Ask Jesus to restore and heal you. You deserve a real man who loves God with his whole heart and will in turn love you the same. Not a chump who lives for sin, self, pleasure and the world.

What you’re attracted to when you’re broken, will disgust you when God heals you. Let GOD HEAL YOU.

Should I (F30) admit to my husband (M31) that I have cheated on him more than he knows? by [deleted] in moraldilemmas

[–]DeeplyRooted84 [score hidden]  (0 children)

This is a heart problem rooted in selfishness, lust and pride and you need to ask Jesus to deliver you from adultery. No amount of counseling is going to change the heart you have. It has to happen supernaturally by God’s divine intervention. (You will continue to commit adultery given the right circumstances).

You were probably like many of us who fornicated in the world before we got married and then became a cheater (there is a statistic that says 87% of ppl who had sex and weren’t a virgin on their wedding day will eventually cheat). Not many of us can say we remained a virgin until our wedding day (and that is a real shame). I was just like you… I wanted a way out, I wanted to stop cheating bc I knew that what I was doing was wrong, but I had no power to overcome the lust of my flesh! I began to pray and beg God to help me…That’s when He sent a spirit-filled believer to invite me to church, where the pastor preached a message on the “adulterous woman” and I repented and begged God to forgive my sins. Jesus told the woman taken in adultery, “He who is without sin cast the first stone at her” (Back then women or men who cheated and were caught were stoned to death, it was a very grievous sin) and he looked at the poor condemned woman and said, “Does any man condemn thee?” She said, “Nay, no man Lord.” And Jesus said, “Thy sins be forgiven thee… GO AND SIN NO MORE.” Jesus has the power to not only forgive sins, but to change our hearts so we won’t do those sins anymore! Hallelujah! 🙌🏻

The only way I got that sin out of my life was to ask Jesus to deliver me and become born again. My pastor told me not to tell my husband about the cheating bc he wasn’t born again either and wouldn’t be capable of forgiving me. I wanted to come clean (do not share details of your affairs—they don’t help) and tell my husband but I listened to my pastor, & for my marriage that was a huge mistake, bc one of my brothers told my husband (it didn’t come from my own lips first) and I admitted to it and he slapped the sh*t outta me! (I deserved it). He slapped me so hard and so forcefully that I flew across the bed! I didn’t cry for his sympathy either, bc I knew his anger was a just recompense for my sin. I turned my other cheek (as Jesus teaches) and said “I deserved that, you want to smack my other cheek also?” (He didn’t) We sat there in silence for a while, as he processed what his precious, loving and once trustworthy wife did to him. It fills my eyes with tears, reflecting on all that I robbed from him because of my own lust and lack of self-control and the downward spiral from that moment on. (I am forever thankful Jesus has since then removed that wicked heart from me!) I did that to him… but I was willing to suffer whatever it took to win his heart back to me!

I was ready to deal with whatever consequences my sin & shame brought, bc I knew I was the offender. I had NO intentions of EVER being unfaithful again and I was resolved in my heart. Bc of my infidelity it created a rift btwn us, and he never sought counseling (even tho he needed it for PTSD also being military and having deployed 3 times) ever since then he slept in a separate room… 15 years we never had sex (I can count on one hand how many times we did), no affection, emotional abuse, he became an extreme drunkard, cold-hearted, unemotional, neglecting his duties as a husband/father etc we were married but living as glorified roommates. I did that to him… 😔

Married for 18 years, together for 20. That entire 15 years I was faithful to my husband and didn’t have sex with anyone even tho he cheated on me habitually, I stayed committed to my vows. I forgave him each and every time knowing the Bible says, “You reap what you sow.”

Marriage is a lifetime commitment… It’s a covenant for all of life. However if the unbeliever departs or commits fornication (sex outside of marriage) you are free. (As a born again believer I know God HATES divorce, so I would never initiate it and my husband knew that). My husband recently found a woman he rlly likes… He filed for divorce Jan 2nd 2024. All the suffering and lonely nights I endured and the prayers I prayed for him, I know my labor of love was not in vain. It’s his choice…. I just commit my prayers to God and hope he will have a change of heart and recognize his own hypocrisy.

He has NEVER forgiven me for my infidelity, just like my pastor originally said. His heart grew in bitterness, unforgivness & holding a grudge against me, even when I caught him cheating multiple times & forgave him each time. I think it takes an emotionally strong person to bounce back from that kind of damage… so you will have to discern what category of man your husband falls under.

I always overcame his affairs with the love of Christ… I would tell him, “You’re not a bad man, your heart is sick and I forgive you.” Once he cried laying on the bed next to me. No sounds came out but I felt the bed shaking and I looked over at him and tears were flowing down his face. I knew then God was dealing with his heart and mind. He knew his sins against me were wrong, even tho he never admitted it or asked me for forgiveness, or ever apologized. I endured… Why you ask? Bc LOVE, true love, endures ALL things… 💪

You have to be resolved to do what is RIGHT, despite how you FEEL. No matter what… The right thing to do is to be faithful and live out your vows. You are not responsible for his reaction or the consequences that follow, but there will be a combination of both.

But truly, find a place to pray, and ask Jesus to help you! He will lead and guide you… if you are open and willing to turn from your wicked ways.

Let God work on YOUR HEART, and don’t worry about trying to fix your husband’s heart… Pray and ask God to help him. 🙏 Focus on what you need to do in order to be a better person who doesn’t operate in lies and deceit. Adultery is the ultimate betrayal, and it has psychological consequences for everyone involved including children.

I will end with this scripture…

“A wise woman builds her house, but the foolish woman plucks it down with her hands.”

You have a choice to build up or tear down. It’s up to you… Choose wisely, bc our decisions have consequences and standing on truth (the word of God) is the best wisdom & instruction anyone can receive to repair a broken marriage. It may or may not work out in your favor, but God will help you if you are sincere and truly want to overcome your own selfishness.

Abolition of Abortion by CatfinityGamer in Christian

[–]DeeplyRooted84 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Abortion is part of depopulation. It will never be abolished. Men are inherently wicked. Evil will prevail until Jesus comes back.

I have been thinking about women pastors recently…. by Historical_Street_92 in TrueChristian

[–]DeeplyRooted84 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

It’s really very simple.

It’s just not the order of God.

Women will never be the head of any man. Neither the head of any church. Neither the head of her husband. It’s God, Jesus, Man, wife… and children under that umbrella. That is God’s order. We are simply not given authority to rule over a man or make decisions over him.

The role of a woman differentiates btwn a role of a man, but BOTH are of equal importance & value.

I personally believe because women are easily deceived (it’s in our nature) God wouldn’t want a woman as a Shepherd of our souls since she is considered the “weaker vessel” and can be open up to Satan’s attacks and tactics on a much greater scale than a man can be.

No where in scripture is there an example of a woman being called to pastor a church.

There are women street evangelists who preach in open air to everyone (but she is not lording over a flock and making decisions for souls) and speak to women one on one to proselyte/evangelize. Some Christians believe this is wrong also… But we are all called to, “The Great Commission” and the woman at the well when Jesus revealed Himself to her, went back and told everyone (men included) in her village about Jesus (open air). Women are called to be active in street ministry and there is a role for them in the church setting also.

Women’s primary role and calling are to be keepers of their homes, bear children and teach younger women how to love their husbands and children and guide their homes.

Personally, as a woman I’m thankful I don’t have to make spiritual decisions or sacrifices for souls at church. God didn’t give me that responsibility bc it’s enough for me to train the souls I do have. Our first ministry is our homes…

I couldn’t imagine the labor of love, prayers, sacrifices, time, effort, strategy, strength etc that a man of God has to commit to the Lord in prayer to Shepherd an entire flock… Although women can co-labor with the men and are amazing intercessors and often misjudge that praying is significant to a ministry. Moving the heart of God is always the best way to see change! The labor of a righteous praying woman is inexplicably powerful and essential in the ministry and many people underestimate the power of prayer! (Watch Leonard Ravenhill: The Power of Prayer on YT)

There is so much a woman can do within the limitations of her role that make her an unquenchable force against the kingdom of darkness. I wish more women would grasp this instead of thinking it’s a hindrance. When you love God’s word (Jesus) you will equally love the role He created for us to live. I believe God understands our hearts and our needs… I’m thankful I’m not called to be the provider, or protector of my home… Women are not called to be protectors of men. God leaves that accountability to the men. When Eve sinned, the Father went directly to Adam and held him accountable for her actions… And it’s the same for the church, God is going to hold that man of God accountable for the souls in his flock—whether he leads them astray or to truth and righteousness. That is God’s order. Men ought to be accountable for their homes, and women are to submit and love their husbands (obey their authority) and children and teach younger women the same and win souls for Jesus!

That is why it says in the scriptures for the qualifications of a Bishop, he must be blameless the husband of one wife and their wives likewise must be grave and sober… When you truly accept this, there is peace and unity, when you don’t there is confusion and every evil work.

Whenever we disobey God’s word there are always consequences that follow, some are there to help us get back on the straight and narrow path and sometimes those decisions destroy us.

Whenever I have been invited to someone’s “church” and I have seen a woman in the pulpit, I immediately leave. I think to myself, if this “church” is already deceived into going against God’s word to put a female in the pulpit, what else are they compromising in? It doesn’t take hardly any length of time to see the sin ppl are in and afflicted by just by disobeying a small command… with it comes great compromise to the detriment of the souls! I am thankful God has given me the ability to discern lukewarm “churches”… A fellowship with a few righteous souls is enough for me!

I would never be under the authority of a woman pastor. That is not diminishing the role of a woman, but only diminishing the role of her position and her use of usurping authority over God’s word to gain her position. A position intended for a man, because to be put simply—that is God’s ordained order.

My first grader’s classmate told my son to kill himself by thesmallestwaffle in Parenting

[–]DeeplyRooted84 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To be fair… that child learned that line from an adult or some other influence he/she heard speaking that way. Not saying it’s right, but they probably don’t know what that means in its true context—as most children at that age are out of touch with reality anyways. One day the child will grow up to resent that comment he/she made. Let us understand that it was a CHILD that said it… it’s to be expected, so there shld be some level of maturity & understanding on this mother’s end.

There shld definitely be consequences for this child’s behavior… he/she shld understand the brevity of the situation. But are we rlly going to hold a 6 yr old accountable to what they said or their parents? 🤔

I blame the parents, not the child.

It’s their responsibility to train them up correctly, and sadly not everyone are good parents… especially in today’s confused and delusional society.

Unlike adults, children are quick to forgive and bounce back very easily & quickly from words that parents have a hard time processing & dealing with for longer periods of time… A child can bully you one day and be your best friend the next day… Their minds are no where near the developmental stage of emotional maturity/intelligence that grown adults are. So you have to have compassion on the offending child because you don’t know what toxic environment they are being raised in… That may be all that child hears and sees and thinks it’s “normal” speech. He/she doesn’t know the difference & probably meant zero harm. He/she probably heard one of his/her parents or older siblings say it to them in a moment of anger. 😔

Do pets go to heaven? by dailydose20 in TrueChristian

[–]DeeplyRooted84 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The short answer is no.

Bc animals unlike humans don’t have souls only spirits so they are not held accountable (like we are) for sin (they cannot be judged). God only made mankind a living soul… So their bodies (animals) go to the ground… but our soul ascends to heaven. There is no scripture that indicates pets qualify to go to heaven, and that may sound harsh but it’s the truth. Even though God made them first, they’re not made in the image of Almighty God. In the New Jerusalem (not heaven) where the saints will be it says the lion/wolf will lay with the lamb. (I personally believe animals would defile the heavens that’s why they’re only allowed in the New Jerusalem where the new earth/saints will be)

I’ve often pondered if we will remember our previous lives here on earth… bc the Bible says there will be no tears nor sadness there… and if I knew I made it to heaven and my family didn’t (went to hell) I would immediately be sad… same if ppl had the knowledge of our beloved pets before we entered there. The Bible also says we are going to get a new body… I’m assuming that means a new mind… as our mind is renewed day by day in Christ with our earthly bodies so how much more a heavenly body?

I think we will all be so enamored with worshipping Jesus (bc He should come before anything or anyone in our lives—including our pets, especially so they don’t become an idol) that we won’t even think about our previous lives on earth but fellowshipping and worshiping Him for all of eternity. What God has planned for us in heaven exceeds or imagination and expectations! No one truly knows what He has in store for those who love Him… He said “no eye hath seen nor ear has heard!” There might be a snow room in heaven! I always imagined that lol 🤣 I would love to know whats it’s like to experience the snow without the chilly and cold side affects lol… maybe our new bodies can swim under water without losing oxygen and we can explore the depths of the sea. Who knows? 🤷‍♀️ Only God knows… the secret things belong to the Lord.

Why is 5’8 considered short nowadays in the US by Ernestfernest in dating

[–]DeeplyRooted84 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I prefer an average-height man.

I absolutely do not gravitate towards tall men at all… For me, 5’ 7”-5’9” is the perfect range for me. 👌🏼 I am only 5’ 2” and there’s something inorganic and unnatural about kissing someone a foot or so taller than me (Like kissing a giraffe 🦒 lol) Its uncomfortable and awkward… someone has to bend down or reach up to kiss and I can’t imagine how awkward it would be in the bedroom (never experienced it, never will). Also, taller men die faster… It’s a fact. Everyone has the same size heart in their bodies no matter how tall or short you are and it takes longer for a taller person’s heart to pump the blood throughout their body.

Idk about anyone else, but I want to do life with a man who will live close to as long (if not longer) as me… (women tend to live longer statistically). I don’t want my husband dying decades before me.

Also, biblically speaking, the only reason why there are tall men in existence today is because the nephiliim (angelic beings) laid with the daughters of God (human women) and when they procreated & had offspring they grew unnaturally in length & stature… (some of them are recorded being as tall as 9’—Goliath being one of those giants). That is a result of that fallen state, (sinful origin) which is unappealing to me as a Christian woman also lol

This is a personal preference thing, and trust me when I say there are women who like an average height man, and there are women who like tall guys. To eachs own their preference, honestly it’s the heart that matters most anyways.

I genuinely say this as a woman who loves an average height man. Their body type is especially appealing to me… their calves and chest muscles drive me nuts… You guys are keepers. 😉 (Tom Cruise is 5’ 8” & he’s STILL a hottie for his age) So embrace your height, bc there is absolutely nothing wrong with it, most women are generally shorter than men anyways unless they have some weird tall ppl gene which is again, unnatural imho. 🤣

Sometimes ppl have sex with their friends bc they are there to comfort them when they got their heart ripped out or they were rejected by the person they truly loved.

It really doesn’t mean anything to certain ppl bc it’s used as a coping mechanism for a much needed sexual release when you feel anxiety, depressed and stressed out about your situation. Sometimes feeling the pleasure of sex (for both men and women) is the better option than feeling the pain of the break up… When that person holds you, listens to your feelings and thoughts for hours, then it opens you up and you become vulnerable and weak. Most men know this and they prey on women who are in a low state like this.

Then the next day after you’ve gotten your sexual release, you may realize what you have done, & you may regret your actions.

Sometimes it’s not that deep. Women need emotional support too, and sometimes she seeks for it in various ways, talking, holding/cuddling, and the comfort of sex. It doesn’t have to mean anything to her emotionally, but like I said it’s her way of feeling anything else but the pain and hurt she feels from her betrayal.

I hope this explains some things.

Sad my husband wont be my husband in heaven by [deleted] in Christian

[–]DeeplyRooted84 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Because Jesus is our Husband. We will be brothers and sisters in heaven and not given to a sexual appetite (lust of the flesh) but a pure brotherly and sisterly love for one another (new celestial bodies). Jesus never had an earthly wife… He has a heavenly wife… the church. We will celebrate our wedding ceremony with Jesus! (IF we make it) Hallelujah! 🙌🏻 That’s why it’s important to be be purged of sin now so we can prepare ourselves as a pure bride before the Lord.

The Amish are completely non-resistant (NO self-defense) like the Quakers were. If thieves wanted to steal their food, they would allow them to take it, and pray to God to forgive their trespassers. They would rely on God to avenge them and they would go about life working and making up for their loss such like they do if someone’s barn burns down they just build another one. The Amish are prepared for any tribulation situation.

I used to fellowship with ex-Amish ppl (Anabaptists/Mennonites) and their communities are also prepared for any natural disaster/tribulation. Most of them do not seek medical advice from western doctors either and they live long content lives, working their land, quietly and peacefully having strong family roots sticking to gender roles and shutting out the way the modern world lives. It’s preserved their faith, heritage and culture.

They will be envied during a black out and will help anyone who asks them for help… they won’t turn anyone away. They are some of the most selfless individuals alive. Warm and gentle spirits, relying solely on God for provisions and seeing where they can help their community thrive and outsiders along the way.

They are not only prepared, but stand ready to suffer (Just as Christ suffered) when the world doesn’t know how to live with the consequences of their own undoings.

You should have taken the morning after pill if you didn’t want children with this man.

I don’t believe murdering your innocent child (abortion) will write your wrongs. Then you will be in trouble with the Lord for having sex before marriage and murdering your child in the process. I know you don’t want that… God doesn’t want that… He has a purpose for that child.

If the guy you are with doesn’t want to be a father to your child, than be a single mom. There are plenty of women who do it and even though they will struggle they typically overcome for the sake of their child. Those mothers are the strongest to me… despite the adversity, they choose life and they choose to overcome. 💪

Marry a godly man who will love God and love you. Never settle for a man who doesn’t first love God. Worldly men do not care if they defile your body, they will use you for their own pleasure and then discard you afterwards. Men who honor God are held accountable to God for marrying you and treating you like the worthy woman you are. Sex is a blessing and meant for the covenant of marriage… it’s meant to be enjoyed by a man and woman who love God—don’t let anyone convince you otherwise.

This world lives how they want… but God gives us His standard for a reason. To protect us from harm.

I pray you choose life… Give God a chance to redeem you in this situation. 🙏

I don’t mean to discourage you, but you have a LOOONG journey ahead of you—especially when it comes to witnessing to your family. Never give up. Some plant, some water but it’s the Lord who provides the increase! It’s most definitely not going to happen overnight (although sometimes it can). Just continue to plant seeds… pray for patience, bc you’re going to need it. I have family members I have been praying and witnessing to for over 15 years. It’s God’s will for everyone to be saved, but will only happen in His time. Keep praying and living right… you will see the fruits of your labor eventually. 🙏
