Those are not Christian women; just because they go to church and speak " tongues" which isn't speaking tongues at all because you need the Holy Spirit to do that, and the Holy Spirit does not dwell in bodies that commit adultery physically and spiritually.
Your life with these women is a good example of how un - influential the churches really are. They don't even teach the people how to cherish and love each other according to the holy word. Just a bunch of dried up false prophets really.
Anyway, the bible says in Corinithians that it's better to not marry anyway - your better off just taking care of your children and making peace with their mother.
Live your life according to Father's will, and always always always - keep your eyes set on heaven.
There are no adulterous women there lol

How many directions can I go with this? If a Christian man cannot pick a Christian wife out of three tries, he should've never had one to begin with, because he's not ready for marriage. If you lack spiritual discernment, you shouldn't be seeking a wife. I have to agree with Nautilus (imagine that, lol). I don't see you any different then I see the three ex-wives. Your sin is just as great as theirs. Asking the sisters to give you a break is an insult to their gender. Not all of them are like that. You're just good at picking out the bad ones. I believe once you deal with your own sin, you may see things a little bit different.

There is nothing remotely like feminism taught in the bible. Calling out feminism as bad doesn't mean that women should be treated like slaves or abused or that their life should not be valued. It doesn't mean you should not treat your wife well. This is a good example of what I mean about feminism being drilled into American minds. The idea that anything that opposes feminism automatically means misogyny, slavery, and abuse of women. It's simply not true.

It really wasn't a reference to the guys particular situation, the thread title asked if Christian men and women are really any different (I'm assuming he meant from non-Christians). Just saying, in a society that's been so negatively impacted by feminism.....you have to be selective when choosing. I never said it was the fault of the women or the guy. I don't know the situation and I wasn't involved so it's not my job to place blame on anyone really.
what ever we have had happened in our lives bad or good is a product of what we have let pass. God never intended for you to be divorced my brother. i am sorry that you had to go through that, but i believe and this is what i do, before i say this and about a person, i look at me first you know. how long and how much i sought GOD on the matter, How my relationship with GOD is, How much i Love GOD, you know those very serious personal questions and at times we dont see ourselves THAT clearly, thats why the psalmist asked GOD to search HIM. and HE did, and GOD loved Him for that.
Those women might have already repented for their sins, see GOD with the eyes that HE WANTS YOU TO SEE.
am reminded that, sometimes we dont listen to GOD you know, we tend to do things the way we think is true, or is right. see the scriptures are TRUE and a lot, but GOD quickens a scripture that applies to your life, meaning not every knowledge is what you are to have faith on. seek GOD for what HE WANTS FOR YOU.
Finally forgiveness is key here, forgive those women, and never generalize them. i know some GOD loving women, and yes we are human and its no EXCUSE but its not time to blame, but time to seek Healing, time to seek LOVE. ai. Do not be trapped into this really. Never helps really.

Let me say this I'm my defense nautilus ...
Two scriptures come to mind...
"and then shall many be offended and BETRAY ONE ANOTHER, AND SHALL HATE ONE ANOTHER....and because iniquity shall abound THE LOVE OF MANY SHALL WAX COLD!"....Matthew 24:10,12
2."now the spirit speaks expressly that in the latter times SOME SHALL DEPART FROM THE FAITH GIVING HEED TO DOCTRINES OF.Demons (feminism "your not my head"...what I went thru) and seducing spirits.." 1 Timothy 4:1
Now the point is these are the last days and marriages 30,40 years old are ending...ministers an pastors in 25 year marriages and ministries together are ending...Yashua spoke about tares and wheats that can't be decerned immediately...so for me to believe these women and trust their vows doesn't necessarily say it's me...also there are arranged marriages, forced marriages (because of pregnancy etc) that last because of ones integrity....in other words....we make choices every day... I'm by no means saying I'm perfect but if I see some one who knows the word and seeks the lord and they ask for my trust...I'll give them my trust...
Your comment have a spitefully critical undertone....and you seem un empathetic and bitter....???
But what I am saying is many women are rebelling in homes...Christian women!...and some weren't always that way .....but have been SEDUCED into believing lies....IT CHANGED THEIR MINDS...the Bible says we should ensure!...how do I know a persons spirit!? 1 Corinthians 2:11...or the choices they will make tomorrow or thirty years from now?
use wisdom knowledge and understanding when you comment bro#
and mostly THE HOLY SPIRIT INSTEAD IF YOUR WISE.FLESH!
Shalom

It saddens me (as it saddened Paul) that there is division in the church over something as simple as tongues Not all ecstatic utterances are spiritual. At sports games, you will hear utterances that defy the rules of grammar that are neither Satanic nor inspired by the Holy Spirit - they are natural. It is really a very simple thing. Those who understand the context can give the interpretation of most utterances (i.e. he was saying that they could have got the first down if the quarterback had run instead of throwing the pass - all expressed without the rules of grammar). Use what you know is true in the natural to understand the spiritual. Tongues do not proceed from emotion nor from logic, but they do exist and will exist as long as there are rules of grammar to ignore.

It broke up the family unit and disrupted the natural order of things. Has a very negative impact on the fabric of society and it's evident in a lot of ways. Marriage rates, level of happiness in both men and women, behavior of the youth coming from broken families.....It's also likely that the rising level of transgenderism and general gender role confusion is a result of it. It's not solely responsible but it contributed to the moral decay of society in more than one nation extensively.
Why it was so effective is that there are goals the movement had and reached that anyone can agree with....such as equal pay, equal rights in the workplace, sexual harassment protection......those are all good things that no right minded person with a heart would disagree with....It's mainly the radical element that infected young minds that caused the damage. You should research the history...who started it, who funded it and what changes in society occurred because of a result of it. It's pretty interesting.

]I am so glad you explained worldly feminism, and some of it's results. I mentioned feminism, as I think the bible explains it. Scripture brings out the power of women, and the proper place women have in the development of our world and the family. Whenever this pattern of love and cooperation between women and man gets distorted it brings chaos. Sometimes it is because the woman wants to lead, or the man doesn't lead from laziness or weakness. Sometimes the man leads by bullying.
I think my choice of using the word "feminism" was a poor choice. I could have explained that God gives women an important role to play. Being "leader" and "helper" have separate but equal importance. God is love, and to have a Godly marriage is to give and receive loving kindness.

I see what your saying sister, I just disagree about labeling it feminism. Loving cooperation between Man and Woman is a Godly thing and I don't think feminism ever promotes that. Men should always be compassionate towards women and I think misogyny is just as bad as feminism personally.....all either of them do is drive a wedge between people and does not promote loving kindness.
