Did I miss something there? "You better get used to it"? And sex isn't necessarily out the window during a fight with some couples, even though it's generally not a smart thing to do while in a fight...

At least you got out of it alive, eh? Some women don't. I've never been hit, but I did throw a remote at my ex (which I meant for him to catch but he didn't...THINK FAST *THWACK*) anddddd gave him a smack across the face, which wasn't so accidental.

Ahahaha, yes, but that type (the type of guy that is going to act up) will DO ANYTHING for the real thing. They'll get bored with themselves and come crawling back, always. I'm still laughing at beating a wife with a peacock feather or a toothbrush, maybe shoving it down her throat like a gag...

I've got a question. Are wives allowed to " lightly beat " their husbands if they get out of line? Or do you just threaten to cut off sex and that is punishment enough?

I think it's that one word that is throwing me off, nature. Nature is generally something we use for wordly terrestrial things....not godly things. I know I said " The Trinity is the nature of God" and it made sense at the time, but I'm thinking nature is the wrong word to use, because it can...

I still don't know what a " cover your own ass " Christian is, please explain? I'm not saying "stop there, that's the end" or " love Jesus and that's it". No way. We don't just reach a plateau and then stop. I'm not advocating that at all. What I was saying is that if you love Jesus and...

:) Maybe, I just don't see lust as only sexual desire, but an overencompassing desire for anything wrong. Yes, exactly like an obsession, only an obsession over a wrong thing. But yeah. No need to get crazy over it. Bez problyem, drug.

I'm not saying " keep people unhappy because that's the right thing to do. " It's just that sometimes what might keep someone happy for the moment isn't best for them in the long run or the grand scheme of things. That's all I meant by that. While you may have been hurt by Christians, that...

They are not interchangeable words. Lust is an overpowering desire, something you will generally strive for at ANY cost, while people generally aren't going to go overbroad for a simple desire. Lust is a wrong desire. Like, someone might kill over a lust for another person, another's...

A good writing on this is " The Soul After Death " by Father Seraphim Rose.

Of course hell exists, but we're not focused on Hell, we're focused on salvation and the kingdom of heaven. The person doesn't just go straight to hell, it's not " Hey look, another suicide, we know just where to put them *throws them down into hell*" like some people would like to believe...

But You, O Lord, are a God merciful and gracious, slow to anger and abundant in lovingkindness and truth. - Psalm 86:15 I don't know about you, but the whole " slow to anger " part really makes me feel better. "I tell you that in the same way, there will be more joy in heaven over one...

A what Christian? I'm Orthodox. And yes Patty, out of love for us Jesus is always with us, but if you love Jesus and know that he loves you, everything else will fall into place with prayer and repentance. We don't need to preach the doom and gloom " this is nothing but fluffy ice cream...

I know you don't just want to keep him alive, but what makes someone happy isn't necessarily the best thing for them. But loving (in a non-sexual context) is never wrong. Love thy neighbor as thyself. If you mean Republican Evangelicals, sure, but there are a lot of Christians that don't fit...

Desiring your wife or husband is something God has given you, that is not lust and it is incorrect to call it thus. Since sexuality is meant to flow between spouses, you are not holding a excessive desire for something God hasn't given you and to call it lust would be calling sexuality within...

It's all about confessing your sins to God and repenting for them. There are former murderers in Heaven, all because of repentance.

We all know God doesn't like lust regardless of who it is directed to. But, I'm not going to condemn someone, or their thoughts, only God knows what they are really thinking anyway. I couldn't agree more, except that it is on your watch, and that is the reality children grow up with across...

I tried to make it a point to say homosexual actions and not feelings. You can have an inclination to have sex with another man (although I'm not promoting it by any means), but if you pull yourself back from doing the actual action, then look, you have pulled yourself away from sin, Good job...

That is like saying that people who although they believe the trinity and regard it as a mystery to a certain extent, don't have a relationship with God. So far from the truth. So far. Just because a mystery isn't revealed to you during your life on earth doesn't mean that you don't have a...

Of course Jesus and God the Father are not interchangeable persons, BUT, they are united in one essence, along with the Holy Spirit, and all three of these in the trinity is one God, and one God alone. Not only do those quotes not negate the divinity of Jesus, they just make a clear...
