Matthew 10:34-39New King James Version (NKJV)Christ Brings Division

[SUP]34 [/SUP]“Do not think that I came to bring peace on earth. I did not come to bring peace but a sword. [SUP]35 [/SUP]For I have come to ‘set a man against his father, a daughter against her mother, and a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law’; [SUP]36 [/SUP]and ‘a man’s enemies will be those of his own household.’[SUP][a][/SUP] [SUP]37 [/SUP]He who loves father or mother more than Me is not worthy of Me. And he who loves son or daughter more than Me is not worthy of Me. [SUP]38 [/SUP]And he who does not take his cross and follow after Me is not worthy of Me. [SUP]39 [/SUP]He who finds his life will lose it, and he who loses his life for My sake will find it.

Both my parents are black sheep and I am the white one, so we do not mix. You are a bigger blessing in those boys lives being a father, because allot of the killing that the kids are doing now today are from lack things like abandonment . It is the only thing God was saying in that message is do not love anyone above me, It is ok if your kids are home.

I have quoted your pm to me, and I agree with you that God needs to be number 1, and that it is OK if the kids live with the parents.
 
Not for Asian cultures, especially in my country.

I'm blessed to be an Asian so I could stay with my parents as long as I could, until marriage.

Plus, the real estate rate in Hong Kong is extremely high that young people usually cannot afford living alone by paying 1000USD per month for a small bedroom only.
 
I am sorry Sister my post cut me off and I was not able to finish it . that was not all I was writing. Everything points to the greatest commandment and yes you can stay home. The only point is we are not to love anyone more then God and as Philippians 2:3-4 we are even to lift others up above ourselves and look out for one another 's interest , not being selfish in this world if you read Philippians 2:2-8 ....Unity Through Humility.
 
For me,
I still live
with mom and grandma
but I'm eighteen!
I'm not married and I don't have a boyfriend.
Mom tolerates me, she loves me.
