[TD="colspan: 3, align: left"]When Jesus was on the cross, He did more than just die for your sins. His one sacrifice did not just remove your sins, but it also clothed you in His righteousness and perfection. Jesus became the true “burnt sacrifice”.

In the Old Testament, whenever someone offered a burnt sacrifice, the perfection of the animal came on him. In the same way, every perfect attribute of Jesus your “burnt sacrifice” comes on you when you take Him as your Savior. And because God sees you clothed with Christ, you have the same acceptance and favor with Him that Jesus has!

When Jesus was offered on the cross, the fire of God brought out His perfections like perfume to God. In that one sacrifice, Jesus’ obedience and perfections rose as “a sweet aroma to the Lord”, which is what is emitted when the offering is burnt. This “sweet aroma” speaks of a savor of rest to God. Jesus’ perfect sacrifice gave God so much satisfaction that He rested.

You can also rest in the perfect sacrifice of Jesus, knowing that what He did, He did for you—“Christ also has loved us and given Himself for us, an offering and a sacrifice to God for a sweet-smelling aroma”. (Ephesians 5:2) You can rest knowing that God the Father is satisfied with you because His Son’s sacrifice has caused His heart to rest with regard to you. You can rest because Jesus is God’s satisfaction for you.

Today, as you come before God, say, “Father, I thank You that Jesus is such a delight and joy to You. He satisfies Your heart completely. And what He did, He did for me. Because Jesus so satisfies You, I know that You are satisfied with me. Because Jesus is Your delight, I am also Your delight.

Because Jesus so pleases You, I know I please You too. And because Jesus is my righteousness and perfection, I stand righteous and perfect before You.”

Beloved, when you speak of Christ and His finished work, it goes up to God as a sweet-smelling aroma, a savor of rest. And if God can rest in the perfect sacrifice of His Son, you can too!

exactly the same happened to me at one point in my life after I had lived for God and ministered and done many things in His Name..then I went through a very messy divorce with a very abusive man and lost it

someone, after almost 2 years, sat me down and said I had to make a choice. I made that choice and left someone I loved as much as my own soul...so I get what sin is and how it destroys...but I have also been attacked by other so called Christians who like nothing better than pointing out others sins...not the person who spoke to me...they were real or I probably would have just left

while I was in sin. I FELT the prayers of people concerned for me...I felt the tug on my heart...I knew my time living as I was was limited

there is a pervasive attitude in these forums that a little self righteousness is a good thing...it isn't...it's filthy rags

in no way do I condone sin and I didn't then either....I was hurting so bad from the divorce and the lies that I just about did not care and when my ex was doing his best to injure me further, he could not because I was with someone who would have beaten the pulp out of him...so he stayed away

lovely story, eh? you know, I just do not know what a person has to do to get real...I am spilling my guts here...and I am a private person...but I mean what I say and I want God above all else...I always have...but I have a sin nature too...all I did was ask you guys to tone it down and the entire time I knew the guns would be trained on me instead

whatever

Those difficult places produce solid fruit and fragrance in our lives. That testimony will help many believers.

As we burn for Jesus,relinquish more ground,and become flames of fire,right relationships will follow.

(wrong ones will always be stalking and hindering)

LadyLynn, the OP was exposed as a troll and a fraud.. She was told truth and didn't like it. Trolls never do. :/

well...that would be the only way it's worth anything

it's more like a 'Jesus going after the lost sheep story'

baaaaa

tell you what though, it does demonstrate God's love and how He will take back what is His

Hello Blueladybug., Even if she was exposed as a troll and a fraud., her story is true thousands of times over in the lives of many woman today. Many believing woman today. So although maybe this person who posted was not real, the situation shared was and is. Thankfully so is the answer. She may have been a troll but the story of the problem played over in my mind these last few days and I came back to post because I hadn't.

Thank you for posting to me Blueladybug.

It's so funny to me when trolls try to disguise themselves as Christians. They expose themselves within three or four posts. Why? Because they don't have the right spirit in them to even be able to keep up the facade, and if they did have it, it wouldn't be a facade.

I missed a few pages of this thread, and I don't care to read them. But I did go back and read the original posters posts. And, no, I don't see any evidence that she was a troll. What I saw was someone suggested that she was a troll and 'group think' took over and certain people accepted that as fact.

Anyone could make up a story and post it. But if we assume that everyone is lying, we end up bashing people who come here for help. So I believe we should use the 'troll' label very sparingly. I don't see any evidence for trolling in this thread. It is very likely that this woman met a guy, slept with him (possibly felt guilty about the fornication and therefore), married him fast, got pregnant, got threatened with divorce, and posted on this forum.

Then what happened? A bunch of posters posted stuff like, 'What, you just met the guy, then you went for a roll in the hay with him?' What she did was wrong, but the way in which she was told was harsh in a lot of posts. Then posters started bickering with each other. She was knew to the forum and saw people bickering.

Galatians 6 says that if someone is overtaken with a fault, those who are spiritual should confront the person with a spirit of meekness.

If someone posts like this, it's appropriate to point out that fornication is a sins. It's not a sin to marry someone you just met. But it may not be the wisest course of action in a lot of cases. On the other hand, Isaac and Rebecca likely did just that, and their marriage was ordained by God.

From her posts, I don't see any evidence at all of her being a troll. What I see is people treating a vulnerable, pregnant woman whose been threatened with abandonment rather harshly because of her sin, then she got angry and left.

The attitude of the OP was certainly distressing. She seemed to want to hear only what she wanted to hear and flatly rejected any biblical guidance.

A heartbreaking situation but realistically impossible to deal with on an open forum like this. I'm not certain if they have a mechanism to pull souls like this to a private room and render private counsel or not but this situation certainly demands such attention.

notuptome,

Maybe so, but that doesn't mean she was a troll like some posters said.

Probably not but she is quite typical of folks who get themselves into bad situations and want to call on God to bail them out. This is not, unfortunately, a rare occasion here on CC. There is always too many competing agendas to accomplish anything in the more serious matters like this OP.

I can only speak for my own post to the OP. She said,in her own words,she did not know her husband. So from what she said I agreed that she had rushed in and to careful in the future. I didn't mention her sleeping with her husband before they married or her pregnancy. From that she became irate and very nasty. I dont have the time of day for people who come here,post all their problems and expect full agreement with everything they say. They didn't make any mistakes,they did no wrong just tell my Im right. If you suggest any advice,no matter how sweetly it is given, they almost curse you out for suggesting they may not be entirely perfect. On top of that she said that this was all in Gods will for her life,which it is not.She ran ahead and married a man she didn't know and consequences grew from there. So I have no apologies to make to the OP. She was in the wrong when she spoke to me. She claims to be a Christian but her attitude says otherwise. Her story does not add up and she's very likely making up the entire thing. I dont expect to see her again,if you do it will be all attitude.

presidente · May 2, 2016

I didn't mean to see everyone was harsh with her. Some people were. Some bickered amongst themselves. She did seem oversensitive, too. You've got to treat some posters with kid gloves.

kaylagrl said:

I agree. NO ONE has time to come on here and try to help someone who rejects all advice given, then gets nasty about it. Elizabeth exposed the OP's pregnancy as highly unlikely, and THAT is when the OP left this thread, never to return. It gets frustrating when we try to help people and they turn out to be frauds..

Church2u2 · May 2, 2016

I don't understand anything about trolls...but I expect that some people may have thought that I was also a troll...judging by some of my posts..the only thing that I can say bout the lennamorning situation is what I originally said. I still pray that Lenna finds help in her situation..wether she's a fraud or not...this is a person who needs prayer.

blue_ladybug · May 2, 2016

presidente said:

If they're genuine, we DO try to treat them gentler. This one was a fraud. Most of them only want to hear sugar coated, rosy glasses truth. Very rarely do any of them say, "just give it to me straight". Kayla, myself and a few others don't play the sugar coat game. If they ask for advice and opinions, then they should be ready to hear and accept it, be it good, bad, or ugly..

presidente · May 2, 2016

blue_ladybug said:

And that's the problem. Galatians 6 says 'the spirit of meekness.' John the Baptist called some religious leaders vipers. But he didn't call everyone vipers. Jesus didn't say such things to the woman at the well.

I see no reason to think that this woman is a fraud or a troll. She may not like to 'hear it like it is', but that doesn't mean she's lying about being pregnant or her whirlwind relationship with her husband.

Women do get pregnant at unlikely points in their cycles, btw. The old rhythm method the RCC once recommended relied on that sort of thing. My biology professor in college said they had special names for people who used the rhythm method of birth control:
'Mommy' and 'Daddy.'

blue_ladybug · May 2, 2016

Well, I'm not about to downplay the truth and sugar coat it. And if you read my post below Kayla's, you'll see how she got caught as a fraud.. Alot of these people are pretty convincing, and that's sad. It's hard to weed out the real ones from the ones who are just here for kicks..

presidente · May 3, 2016

blue_ladybug said:

I'm asking you and others to display more wisdom and the spirit of meekness when you confront other posters. Your post doesn't present any evidence that she is lying. When a woman can get pregnant is that predictable. It is not wise to confront people who post their problems and heartaches of lying and being a troll without any real evidence that they are doing so. If a woman says she got pregnant towards the end of her cycle, that is not proof she was lying.
