If you live in North America, don’t forget to set your watch/clock one hour forward.
No, it is not exciting at all to lose one hour! But hey, there is nothing we can do about it except accepting the fact and trying to get used to it. But the good thing is, we will soon get it back.
So, I personally choose to fix my eyes on getting it all back soon, not on losing it now.
Whether we accept it as truth or not, “it is a law of life that we get what we go after.”
This truth is actually biblical. Knock, it shall be opened; seek, you shall find (Matthew 7).
So, the question is not whether or not the door will be opened and we find what we are seeking for, rather it is whether the door we are knocking on and the thing we are going after will lead us to life or not. ///
They “WAITED” to have sex until marriage and they wrote a book called, “WAIT.”
Well, two of my good Facebook friends have dropped me this couple’s interview in my inbox on different days and I decided to share one of their interviews with you all today. (Thank you my friends!)
Pastor Franklin, he was 22 years old when he decided to wait for marriage and he stayed away from sex for ten or eleven years. But before that, he was sexually active and he was in porn too (you can find that on the interview they gave to Fox News 5). Continue reading Meagan Good and DeVon Franklin→
A4P Guest: “Can a man be so modern, advanced, educated, sophisticated and spiritually matured that he stops looking at a woman?”
A4P: NOT A CHANCE! A MAN CANNOT STOP looking at a woman even if he wants. Asking a man never to look at a woman is like asking him NEVER to be a man. But, don’t miss this; it is right to demand from a man to make a covenant with his eyes never to lustfully look at a woman. (Job 31:1)
This is a biblically right demand because God equipped him with a brand new nature that has ability to say no to sin. (2 Corinthians 5:17; Titus 2:11-12) ///
“If your right eye causes you to stumble, gouge it out and throw it away. It is better for you to lose one part of your body than for your whole body to be thrown into hell.” (Matthew 5:29)
God is okay without us. If we all agree to deny Him, He will continue to live forever in glory because He can’t deny Himself! He doesn’t need us for Him to live as God. He is God with or without us. He doesn’t need our agreement or “votes” for Him to be God, King of kings and Lord of lords.
But- – – when it comes to us, we can’t live without Him. Without Him, we perish.
All the “don’ts” in the Bible are there to make all the “do’s” the ultimate source of joy, peace, rest, pleasure and contentment.
Let’s see one quick example regarding sexual fulfillment:
Do’s: “May your fountain be blessed,
and may you rejoice in the wife of your youth.
A loving doe, a graceful deer—
may her breasts satisfy you ALWAYS,
may you ever be INTOXICATED with her love.”
(Proverbs 5:18-19 – capitalization is mine)
Don’t: “You have heard that it was said, ‘You shall not commit adultery.’ But I tell you that anyone who looks at a woman lustfully has already committed adultery with her in his heart.”
