Damned

[Slich]

Alright, do not find this comical or laugh, but I am 33 and have never dated.

Never had anyone. Yes, I go out, have joined several dating agencies (SCAMS), numerous social groups (yes, including Christian groups), frequented many nightspots, personal ads, have spent most my life socialising. Prayer does not assist in this nature.

But to no avail.

I would like to at this time mention:

Genesis 2:18 And the LORD God said, It is not good that the man should be alone; I will make him an help meet for him.

God must realize that we can only take so much, and that being a male of my age and forever single is extremely difficult to cope with.
We are not God; we are of mankind, and possess limitations.

I must also mention that I do not want to live my life listening to false encouragements such as "There is someone for everyone"..because there is not. This theory is scientifically, mathematically and theoretically incorrect. I doscourage building false hope.

it appears that God desires me to become of a hermetic state.

1 Corinthians 7:8-10
But I say to the unmarried and to the widows: It is good for them if they remain even as I am; but if they cannot exercise self-control, let them marry. For it is better to marry than to burn with passion.

I'm 46. Haven't "dated" in...it must be 10 years. Don't miss it. Never married. No children. Couldn't be happier.

I love men...just as long as I don't have to live with one. I adore children...as long as they aren't mine.

Loving and living with Jesus...it just doesn't get any better than that...for me anyway.

Mybrother, I know what your going through...I am 26 and have been abstinant 4years when i really started walking with God. I too feel like um Hello? I m still here waiting??? And the heaven or ungodly people seem to be so happily in love... I could say Well, I am meant to serve Jesus and be single forever, but that is definetly not in my heart. not at all.. so I have come close to some relationships but I always end up not going for it because they are un believers and I just have faith which is small like a mustard seed that God has someone that fits perfectly for me.. I won't say don't worry brother shes on her way cuz I don't know.. but I can say that it is not just happeneing to you.. I can also say I think God may be working some stuff out of you before he does give you your one . He will never leave you nor forsake you... hang in there, ask him why? He may show you ...

This statement is true on many tokens. God must, as I stated earlier, realize that 33 years as a single male can be extremely difficult to cope with. Self control, after this length of time can fade, so it is better to marry.
This is just one of the reasons why I do not follow God.

So you're blaming God...is that what you're saying? You don't follow Jesus, but you've decided it's His fault you're not married?

Not quite sure how He can be at fault for this, when you've not acknowledged Him as Lord. Nor allow Him to guide your footsteps.

Please forgive me, if I've understood you wrong.

 

[Slich]

Please forgive me, if I've understood you wrong.

You have, but it is futile for me to continue.

So are you mad at God because you have a hard time relating to women?

 

[MelechYisrael]

So you've decided to take the easy way out, and just walk away. Help me to understand by explaining what you mean.

 

[Boanerges]

Slich my friend, take it from an older brother in the Lord; I used to think my being super shy and a little nerdy was a curse but now I see it was God keeping me from trouble till I met the one He had for me.
Selah.

 

[Slich]

My, the mobbing and assumptions run wild.

Jesus is Lord, and there's nothing you can do about it!

As you wish.

Your Lord, perhaps. I have better things to occupy myself with than "do anything" about "God" being your Lord.

So are you mad at God because you have a hard time relating to women?

Oh, absolutely :wink: I asked for opinions. Not assumptions.

Nor allow Him to guide your footsteps.

Oh yes. Guided my footsteps to turn me to suicide. Seeing as you
were not aware of my Christianity faith for sixteen years, I shal let that slide.

I shall take the easy way. I shall hire a woman (if you get me)
..and there is nothing YOU can do about it.

If anyone desires to have a further crack, my PM box awaits.

God had NOTHING to do with your suicide attempt. If anything, He saved you from killing yourself because He loves you with a deep and abiding love. Why you don't see that, I don't know.

Like I said, you hang out at a Christian forum for a reason...perhaps at another chance to finally start knowing the Truth that is God?

One could be a Christian for 50 yrs and still NOT know who God is. That's NOT His fault. God is totally and completely blameless in ALL things. He cannot be indicted or convicted for anything that is wicked, evil or remotely negative. THAT is NOT His nature. He is pure Love and Goodness while Satan is pure evil and malevolence.

You should be mad at Satan since he's the one who's been lying to you, up till this very moment. He also tried to destroy and take you out. He'd rather you be dead, because he hates you with a passion, don't you get it?

You should actually be grateful to God for keeping you. God loves you. The sooner you get that, the better for you.

The fact that you can carry on the way you do about God and still be alive, healthy and breathing, surely MUST make you see through your blind eyes that His Grace, kindness and compassion abound in your life.

"There are none so blind as those that will not see"...so said Jesus.

You keep trying to take God on, you will lose.

A word to the wise..."Let him who has ears listen."


P.S, nobody cares about your sex-life. You will, as we all will, have to stand before the Throne of Grace and Mercy and answer to God regarding our choices. We can't then say "I didn't know" because we did and one can't lie, rationalise or justify any sin to God.

The time to make right choices is NOW for us all. That includes you, Slich.

Not sure of your past but it is becoming very evident that you are not very mature.:wink:

 

[jadore]

R u serious? have u try the singles group in your church? Do guys hit on u?

 

[Slich]

Not sure of your past but it is becoming very evident that you are not very mature

Not certain of yours either but it is becoming very evident that you believe you are above everyone else, You believe you're better than everyone and anyone, and those that disagree with you are peasants.

And if I am immature, get over it. You can sit here and think that you are something special; enjoy your fantasy.

I have msn. I have PM. Let us speak one on one.

You obviously don't know much about God and are upset with Him for your own personal failures. I think that we have tolerated your disrespectful attitude towards God long enough.

 

[Boanerges]

My friend, you put stuff out there knowing folks are going to comment and then you get mad about it. The good people here really care and want to help so please take their comments in the spirit which they are offered.:shade:
I am still praying for you and believing God for His perfect will in your life.
Many blessings in His Name,
brother Larry.

 

[eddieb]

what is your focus? is it a wife or is it the Lord? not to judge your walk or relationship with The Most High. but who knows what He wants? John 15:8 says the father is glorified that we bear much fruit. for fruit read versus 10 and 11 and galatians 5:22. The bible says He is our portion. lay down your burden at his feet and leave it there. and try to glorify him by keeping his command so you can abide in his love(john15:10) when it is time he will provide for you. But he is righteous in everything He does. if you dont have a woman yet he has other plans. throw your want/wish list away. Jesus gave all and we are to be like our Lord. i know, KNOW, its not easy. i too am waiting on the Lord to provide me that special lady friend. Fix your eyes on Jesus, on whats eternal, not what will pass. if you do that he will keep you in Love and Joy and you wont be down about those temporal things.

I apologize for the insensitive cliches that have been dumped on you by well intentioned but clueless Christians. What I would point out is that Scripture tells us that we are created to know, love and serve God primarily, and love each other secondarily (see Dt 6:5). God created the marriage of Adam and Eve to begin the family/procreation process of populating our planet.

In connection with serving God, look at the apostle Paul's words in 1 Cor 7. I think he shows the secret of living a truly fulfilling life as a single person.

Please explain because that sounds like an opinion. Thank you brother.

Um. Hey I'm not saying I know it all but yes God gave Adam a help mate but let me just tell you something that may or may not encourage you. My step-mom didn't get married until she was 39. I am divorced, but, I am more interested in what God wants of me than what my flesh wants. I'll be honest... I look at other guys and think, 'Well I wonder if he's soulmate. If he is who God designed perfectly for me. But God will put someone in my life. Quit and I know it's hard because I'm 24, but quit looking out of your flesh because you just might find someone that God doesn't have in mind for you. Trust Him that He knows what He's doing and let Him take over your life in that area. Let Him have that and you will not be so controled over that feeling.

It is okay to want someone but it's even more important to want God and to want to please Him. Love Him first then He just may finally send you someone to show you a reflection of His love for you.

God Bless you.
