It's almost painful to watch...like the old ladies who like to punch little boys bottoms. I tend to tell my kids to steer clear of it.
I know it's suppose to be joking but with the amount of adultery and sexual immorality in the world, I don't find it humorous.
I didn't say anything because I didn't want to be legalistic about it, but flirting does make me uncomfortable. Just one of those things I think should stay between husband and wife.

I answer the question of how Satan can destroy God's elect, because it's a question that needs to be answered.
We should all be warned of Satan's tricks and how he attempts to make us ineffective for God.
Why are you so confrontational?
Cuz I don't agree to judge and condemn folks with false doctrines as Satan's minions?
Because I have hope and FAITH that GOD CAN CHANGE ANY HEART and deliver everyone of His Kids out of false doctrines?
Because I would rather have peace then contention?
Because I see past the harsh words on both sides to hearts that seek God and His truth.
Because I can see how Satan has twisted what is said and what is heard to cause conflict and I stand in prayer that my brothers and sisters see past the lies to what the other person is saying?
Yes we don't agree on everything, but we agree on alot more than the fighting would have you to think.

A small question.
Which sin is ok, not worthy of being confessed resolved and worked through?
I ask because some have said God forgives sin generally, and is not interested in cause and effect
or getting involved at a one to one level with each of us.
Have you noticed this is exactly 100% a denial of knowing Jesus and walking in the Spirit.
One action that caused death of people
Onan - he spilled his semen - What he did was wicked in the Lord’s sight; so the Lord put him to death also.
Gen 38:10
When they came to the threshing floor of Nakon, Uzzah reached out and took hold of the ark of God, because the oxen stumbled. The Lord’s anger burned against Uzzah because of his irreverent act; therefore God struck him down, and he died there beside the ark of God.
2 Sam 6:6-7
Sin matters and what sin you do carries different consequences. It all needs to be
accounted for and resolved.
Now if you feel all sin is forgiven so irrelevant, why did Paul rebuke the Corinthian church
for specific sin and call for repentance?

Want to comment on this sin Peterjens...does it apply to women too?
Matthew 5:27-28New King James Version (NKJV)
27 “You have heard that it was said to those of old,[a] ‘You shall not commit adultery.’ 28 But I say to you that whoever looks at a woman to lust for her has already committed adultery with her in his heart.

A member here once thought it was very funny to turn Jesus' foot washing ritual into a public, male masturbatory fantasy while flirting with a woman he knew was married. He would defend his right to do such things and other people would defend him too and act as if there was something wrong with those who objected, and they made a big deal about it, trying to shame those who found his lack of discretion disturbing. Fran defended that person as well when they were blaming others for their being banned, as if their own reprehensible behavior was irrelevant in the scenario. That person was banned at least six times and joined as a woman at least twice. People often have no idea of what is going on but will jump in and defend their friend regardless of the harm that is being done. It really helps me understand why God is no respecter of people.
It's rather embarassing and awkward for them, I'm sure. And it's rather disrespectful to their wives.. From the pictures of the guys I've seen on here, several of the men are good looking, but I don't go around flirting with them unabashedly.. Oh and you must have a girl-crush on Stonesoffire, cuz she be a girl..
