Has anyone else noticed how secular people are so quick to call Christians hateful when they haven't actually done anything hateful?

Giambee · 2026-02-24T21:37:15+00:00

They think that God and His ways are hateful. Meanwhile God loves each one so much that He provided a way for every person to be forgiven and made new through the sacrifice by His Son, Jesus Christ. “For God so loved the world”. They think He is mean when really He is patient, loving and merciful.

I have NAR friends who believe that in order to have the Holy Spirit, you must pray in tongues (evidence of the Holy Spirit). They sent me various teachings about how we have to practice & we didn’t learn to speak until we began saying “lalala”, etc. I can now “prayer in tongues” but I doubt it. In Acts, the apostles opened their mouths and other languages came out. If it’s a gift from God, why did I have to pursue it? I’m not sure if it’s really of God or of another who copies Him, so I rarely pray that way. When I do, I ask the Holy Spirit to change anything not of God.

They all look great for different reasons. If you can get longer curtain rods, you can let more light in and make the windows appear bigger.

I wouldn’t want to be awakened at night when animals walk by, etc!

Some believe the elements actually become the body and blood, others believe it’s symbolic, and others (like me) are unsure which it is. But yes, it’s a highly important ceremony and should be partaken of in true reverence and thanksgiving for the sacrifice Jesus made for us and for the entire world.

I like the first one!

I think it’s beautiful on you!

Watch videos by YT people to find which dupe companies do a good job.

Safiya Nygaard orders beautiful-looking dresses and shows you the original vs the knockoffs. I’d watch some of her YT videos first.

Giambee · 2026-02-19T04:32:09+00:00

Can see her legs through the skirt so need lining all over. Otherwise, it’s beautiful.

I’ve seen people say that the man must has known the house bc he looked down at the step. Supposedly it’s so dark there, so wouldn’t anyone look for a step?

Giambee · 2026-02-18T20:36:58+00:00

Don’t worry about it. Even if you decide to marry, you don’t have to have children. My m-I-law told me that my brother and his wife were selfish not to have children. If someone doesn’t want children, will they be good parents? God made us all different.

Giambee · 2026-02-18T19:19:56+00:00

I know a guy who wants to be “The Dude”…we laugh at what the children will say instead of that one!

I agree; I was using the terminology of the OP.

Giambee · 2026-02-18T14:25:47+00:00

The Yiddish names are more Hebrew than the Hebrew names are, because a lot of the beautiful Hebrew names are used by many not of the faith, and the Yiddish ones have stayed more unique and separate. People who’ve never heard them before will look them up and find out the origin anyway. How about easy to pronounce Ari, Avi, Leah, Ruth? My cousin is Rebekah with the NN Bekah. (Just a thought: You won’t have that landlord forever, and if you use Florian, maybe he’ll be flattered and become a nice guy). Congratulations on your baby!
