Things Christian singles are sick of hearing

@Oasis i think you missed the point. Also, being married doesn't exclude any of the things you mentioned above

@Christian Daniel perhaps you missed my point as well.

@Christian Daniel the statement you shared is dismissive and is a shame it’s been used in a dismissive way. Jesus was focused on serving the Kingdom to come and we are partially already participating in that right now since Christ died for us to take back what Adam and Eve forfeited. As Jesus is our example in all things, perhaps there is a point of truth in that dismissing statement that is worth contemplating on.

@Oasis Very true and the same could be said for married people. But unfortunately it's often used as a way of dismissing people's very real, God given desire for marriage.

@Angela I agree. Which is a shame. I’m sure many have good intentions when they say that but it is unfortunately quite dismissive. I just want to take this moment to reassure you, that you are enough, more than enough. You are made after the image of the Most High and He adores you dearly and He is going to give you the best. Whatever the best is, we can trust He will provide according to your needs in Him. Amen 🙏🏼

Yes absolutely! I’d rather they put their arm around me and say “you’re going to be ok, I’m here for you”. I already know Jesus loves me!

@Blair I use BibleHub and compare many versions as well as look into the Interlinear Bible on BibleHub to analyse the original word. I hope you find peace Blaire. Sorry to hear this is still on your mind 🕊️May you not focus on something of difference that you miss out on the beautiful things we may have in common that could give glory to God. 🌺

@Oasis Erm…thanks. I’m at peace with it. Was just interested in the source of the discrepancy. I find the issue caused by the variable translations of the Bible fascinating and I want to learn the truth of it. I mentioned it before, but the ways in which different words are used can completely change the nature of God. Can show examples if you need.

@Oasis I highly recommend anyone go and watch the videos on the ‘Truth is Christ’ YouTube channel. ‘The Golden Sequence’ video is a good start. The true word of God is awe inspiring!

Did he survive re-entry and make it back to the maternity ward in time?

😂😂😅

@Rebeca I mean they not only expect God to send a potential husband but they will expect God to send the perfect husband, including perfect personality, activity, money, etc. Which is ridiculous because know better than us what we truly need, but they'll stick to unrealistic expectations and turn down the men God actually sent them.

Also some people will wait for a sign from god on everything like God is their personal assistant ....

@Florent love your mind I can't help but get drawn into what you have to say and the way you articulate your trail of thoughts. I hunger for intellectual mind like yours

Looking forward to seeing your Salt Success story when you guys meet...

@Chris From personal experience, Beauty is a huge reflection of their personality. Discipline, habits, consistency are some of the qualities and traits that manifest in the physical body and face. In the long run, personality is top and I’ve seen enough people with debilitating illnesses, disorders, addictions and terrible destructive habits. Looks are an EXTENSION of one’s personality. It’s not always accidental. It is intentional. They tell a story, if you know how to read.

@Pranay - I respectfully disagree. Self care, exercise and hygiene make a difference, to some extent, but the vast majority of someone's physical beauty is entirely genetic and not something that just magically radiates from their personality. "Beauty" will tell you very little beyond they like to make themselves look good through self care and/or cosmetics. And chasing beauty itself can be an addiction, an obsession, an idol, a disorder and a destructive habit.

@Chris Oh Lord I can relate, that is super painful. Luckily God gave me a child from my one and I believe leaving was the best choice I have done in my entire 47year.

@Chris @Pranay I think there is some truth in what you both say. Beauty is genetic to an extent but physical health certainly helps an increases beauty whilst also being an indicator of someone with discipline and self respect which are attractive traits. I think you have to find someone attractive an feel chemistry regardless.

@Sylvia I’m glad you’ve got a child from your relationship. Yeah, some relationships do need leaving.

@Jez @Jez exactly mate! The change one’s lifestyle(no smoking, no drinking, no skimping on sleep, religiously eating healthy, exercising, never being over weight, avoiding stress, etc) makes to a person’s health, the way they look and feel is TRULY REMARKABLE! No cosmetics/serums will ever give you the results true inner health will. I still get approached by women who’re more than ten years younger than me thinking I’m their age. I’m living proof of that.
