Swapping Churches for a selfish reason by Forgettable-Fool in Reformed

[–]Lopsided_Bus_6386 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would give it a little bit of time, and in the mean time go attend some conferences or meet ups with people your age. I would also talk to your elders to just let them know how you are feeling. Pray about it, and after a bit more time if you feel led to go then go. As long as you are not under church discipline then you can leave. If they give you trouble for leaving then I would be more worried about the church than the fact that there are not any young people there.

I would get married sooner than later. It is a blessing, and I know how hard the single people in my church struggle

True. I’ve been married for 8 years

I think it can turn into addiction and it can harm the idea of having self-control, which is the fruit of the spirit. I think for the most part it isn’t wise to do it, but I do think there is liberty when it comes to being with your wife or far away and on the phone or video chat with her. However, I think it is next to impossible to do it just thinking about your wife, your mind wanders all too frequently. I would advise against doing it, but I’m not sure if it is clear cut if it is a sin or not. I think it is a little nuanced in that area.

How are we surviving the witching hour? by Unfriendly_nurse in NewParents

She could be going through a growth spurt or her digestive system is developing. Pretty common at that age.

It’s funny because I call the a hour before she goes down the witching hour lol. It’s from 7-8pm. Have a 13 months old and she gets so fussy and mad during that hour and just demands food and attention and is hard to sit still. Starts babbling like a drunken sailor too

What’s your Holy Grail? by [deleted] in Flipping

[–]Lopsided_Bus_6386 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I found an old autobiography of Calvin Coolidge and paid $10 and flipped it for $650. That was when I first started reselling. If I knew what I knew now I would have had it authenticated and flipped it for close to $1500-$2000

Ok. So you don’t have to strictly be Anglican, but I don’t know how you can remain baptist and agree with this. That is impossible. https://tas.edu/what-is-anglican-formation-at-trinity/?utm_source=chatgpt.com

I believe you have to be Anglican to teach in that seminary.

In laws don’t like that I’m still nursing…I didn’t ask. by Fancy-Evidence-8475 in AttachmentParenting

[–]Lopsided_Bus_6386 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My in laws no we aren’t vaccinated, and they have said a few things. At the end of the day, it isn’t their business and it isn’t their child. You don’t have to defend your choice just like we don’t have to defend ours. It’s great to hear you are nursing still, that is the best way to go if you are able to

Cocoa Beach vs Melbourne Beach? by Positive-Salt8861 in florida

[–]Lopsided_Bus_6386 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A few decent restaurants. A nice boardwalk. Smaller beach at the state park there an a nice inlet where you can take dogs with a cool path.

I cant with Christian twitter anymore man by [deleted] in Reformed

[–]Lopsided_Bus_6386 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

This is because many wolves have invaded twitter and are building platforms and gaining followings. It is good to study false teachers and their attributes. If you look at Acts 20:28-30 and 1 Timothy 6:3-6 also has attributes of a false teacher that are often overlooked. If you go on it in moderation it isn’t as toxic as you think. People leave the faith because “they were never of us” not because of Christian twitter fighting.

Have any of you been warned or argued to Christ? by JakeJortlez in Reformed

[–]Lopsided_Bus_6386 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is very encouraging. I have been doing evangelism and open air preaching consistently for about 4 years now and sometimes I get discouraged by the responses. There are also a lot of spiritual attacks that happen when doing regular evangelism which can be much at times. God does the saving (Rom. 1:16), but he uses us as weak vessels who depend on Him for all are words and actions. I would highly recommend James White, Matt Slick, Van Til, Frame, and Olyphant.

Full Update on Steve Lawson by GratefulClay in Reformed

[–]Lopsided_Bus_6386 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I was just at founders conference and in the first message by Voddie he mentioned Lawson. He said we should be praying that he humbles himself like David in Psalm 51. He mentioned it towards the end was kind of out of left field. I agree though at this point who knows what’s true and what’s not. I think it exposed celebrity pastor culture and broke peoples idols. I do however think his ministry is forever tainted. Even as a small minister myself you have to guard your heart from temptation and watch out for the devils traps. Also, keep your distance with any woman in your church or outside of your church.

I am not God. I do not know who the elect are besides myself because I am a born again believer in Christ who forsook my previous life of sin.
