:ROFL: That's like saying I'm a plane crash survivor because I was alive when Aaliyah died. Technically I survived the crash, but not being in it really helped.

Either you love each other well or he's abusive. One or the other. And it seems pretty clear from your description that he's abusive. Just leave already. As far as we know, you don't have kids or any shared assets with this guy, so I'm not sure what the hold up is...

He would have been real selfless if the bomb went off...but not in a good way...

:( It's time to go on strike! I think a good way to not let other people's hurtful actions take up emotional space is to try not to worry about things that God wouldn't have you account for. (See Romans 14:12)

This sounds about right. I think the best thing to do at this point is forgive her (which doesn't have to involve her; that can be between just you and God) and limit contact with her as much as you can. I definitely wouldn't initiate any contact from this point, and I would feel no guilt about...

Situations like this are the reason we have unnecessary warning labels. (Or at least, one would think they'd be unnecessary.)

She didn't give me that impression. She seems to be against sin regardless of whose sin it is, so I don't think that's a fair assumption. Correct me if I'm wrong @Demi777...

That refers to how long they've been on this site, not on this Earth! :LOL::ROFL:

I naturally got it and read it in the right tone xD So naturally, that I forgot that people can sometimes not get it!

Thanks for sharing. Gave me something to pray about. I just prayed in opposition. How did the lady respond to your email? Or did she?

Thank you! :D

I'm supposed to be working on a paper, but I'm already distracted enough so I thought I'd drop by and say hi!

Yes I did, and I was shaking my head. It got to the point where I was saying, "the sergeant-at-arms will restore order in the gallery" at the same time, speed and cadence as Vice President Pence.

Thanks! :)

Help us.

I agree with this post except for the part that I bolded and changed to red. I would say that following the Word of God would not be in spite of one's love for sinners, but would actually be an act of love toward sinners. I think following the Word of God is the most important act of love we can...

Yayyyyyy! God is good! I am so happy for you right now ^_^ I will pray for you and your loved ones as well. This is only the beginning :)

You won't disappoint Jesus by going by the Word; He is the Word (John 1:1, 14). Also, Jesus quoted the Old Testament many times. Old Testament Scripture does not conflict with Jesus; it points to Jesus. I have some family members and friends who are hostile to the Gospel as well (as many of us...

The major change in how I view myself over the years, specifically over the past almost four years that I've been saved, is that I view myself a lot less. I used to be a lot more self-centered. Not self-centered in that I lived at the expense of others with no consideration for their...

Hi, folks! I have not been on this thread (or CC, for that matter) in a while, so I thought I'd drop in and say hello. :)
