Nice to see you back 'round the forum, miss Learner! 😎

Hi Koen, welcome to the site! It's always okay to be content in Christ, single or not 😎. I always find the best matches when I'm not looking for one, but do as the Lord leads you! As far as talking and introducing ourselves, start a thread asking a random question on a topic you find...

Well dang, if that's all ya wanted to know we coulda saved ourselves a whole lotta typing! 😜

Hi Edith! I'm glad you don't feel the need for weapons. Where I live it's a cultural thing, just about everyone owns at least one gun (uhh I mean weapon, @camron143 😜) but nobody really wants to ever use it on a human, it would be a last resort to defend themselves or their family. Generally...

Before I get up in the morning: "Lord, please help me this day, to do what you want me to do, and say what you want me to say."

Can't tell if prior military or extremely pedantic trivia buff 🤔.

Looks like the poor guy got snowballed? 🤔 To be fair, that outfit could be very triggering to anyone who had beef with an orphanage headmaster in the early 1800s. 😜

Just so you know, that passage is quoted a LOT by men trying to control women they are not married to (and even more by husbands to control their wives). I'd be very careful about using it outside of a marriage context, and even within a marriage context it's not exactly something to wave...

Mem, I love you to death, but this is yet another one of those times our thought processes do not converge. Don't mind me though; I mostly hit "reply" so the keypad would pop up and possibly give me clues about what is apparently obvious. Still in the dark though! 😆 And, @AutumnBreeze ...

I wasn't sure if this thread was about "marriage" or "mirage" ..... something that appears to be real or obtainable but isn't. 🤔 Actually, they work interchangeably, now that I think about it 😂.

I do not "oblige" anyone to my interpretations, all I could do is share scripture and encourage the person to seek God in the matter. I agree with you that God's choice could be different depending on the situation and the people involved. I also agree that any non-believing women who wanted to...

Hi Dino, I hear what you are saying but I asked because I was curious about @timemeddler 's point in bringing up that verse specifically. But yes, being born female can itself feel like a curse at times. Not because of anything God says or does, but because of the way men try to lord it over...

In that case, men are under a "disciplinary ruling" as well, Genesis 3:17 Funny, I rarely if ever hear THAT verse quoted, but the one about Eves' consequences gets quoted A LOT. 🤔

Agree! But in that case, I'm curious how you feel the verse you suggested fits into this particular context? 🤔
