    I'm taking the spiritual lead in my family

    It takes character and integrity to publicly admit such a thing. We all know you're hurting right now, and it's coloring your reactions to your situation, and how you post. Praying for you.

    I'm taking the spiritual lead in my family

    This thread has deviated FAR from where it started.... Suffice to say, as was pointed out by a respondent somewhere back around page 1, it takes 2 to argue.

    Feds Torpedo Sailor's "Clinton Defense"

    There are certain posters on this board that may not have necessarily supported Hillary's illegal email usage, but in effect echoed her words: "What does it matter?" This sailor is an example of why it matters.

    Spiritual growth in unmarried relationships

    Just my two cents - but I'm currently looking at my church for exactly the opposite reason. Seems like all the study groups and activities primarily separate families (youth goes off for their own service on Sunday and Wednesday evenings; and are encouraged to sit together (away from their...

    Feds Torpedo Sailor's "Clinton Defense"

    http://www.cnn.com/2016/08/16/politics/navy-sailor-clinton-email-defense/index.html The feds stated that the sailor knowingly took photos where he shouldn't have; to which the sailor admitted. James Comey stated that Hillary Clinton should have known that her email server was doing things it...

    A different divorce question

    Not what I meant to imply. I agree. What I meant was, "hardness of the heart" is a spiritual matter, and should be addressed in churches. And if it is, and God works through that preaching, then we might see a decrease in the motivation to divorce....

    I'm taking the spiritual lead in my family

    I don't care who approved or likes what I posted to you. That's not why I post things. I posted what I did because you're reacting out of hurt, pain, anger, and fear. You're having a knee-jerk reaction to the situation, whether you realize it or not, and whether you wish to admit it or not. I'm...

    I'm taking the spiritual lead in my family

    Evan - please reconsider your course of action. Because the path you've described -- "my wife needs to do what I say" -- is indicative of a stereotypical IFB mindset. In other words, you're acting exactly like those you allegedly DON'T want to be identified with.

    The War On Religion--In Our Own Military

    http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2016/08/11/ex-marines-religious-freedom-claims-rejected-by-appeals-court.html Granted, the young Marine was discharged for several other violations -- but they all basically stemmed from her posting that bible verse around her desk. Me, I had typed up, printed...

    Is a marital legal separation Biblical?

    My confusion was because your opening post was asking if YOU recommended it. I understand now.

    Is a marital legal separation Biblical?

    Wouldn't it be better to recommend to them that they find a way to communicate? Seek counseling, from a pastor or qualified counselor? Go to a lake or park and just talk about the lake or park? By recommending that they legally separate, aren't you violating Matthew 19:6?

    The bible and Divorce

    His pastor is encouraging him to file for legal separation, or encouraging her to file for legal separation?

    The bible and Divorce

    No. He may not want to hear it, but you should have him look hard at the last half of Ephesians 5, starting with verse 25.

    Back to the '70's

    Having been in a career field that demanded the females meet the same physical requirements as the males -- as long as they carried their own M60 and ammo can when it was their turn to be assigned, and they could run from cover-to-cover in flak vest, helmet, gas mask, and carrying their own...

    The bible and Divorce

    Can he? Yes. Should he? No. Matthew 19:6, 19:8-9. The only "exception" is sexual immorality. I would recommend counseling, either with a pastor and/or qualified counselor. If she won't go, he should go alone, if only to show his commitment to his wife, which should be the same as the...

    Back to the '70's

    Interesting question, Salty. In this day and time, when having been in prison is a kind of status symbol for some, how many would choose prison over military? If we were able to do this -- would there be certain MOS fields they wouldn't be allowed to sign up for?
