Question (Morals)

[tessa_s212]

John 14:6 Jesus said to him, "I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one can come to the Father but through me."

Imagine you did a horrible crime. Horrible crime. You can either pay a 500,000 dollar fine, or go to prison. Even though you plead that you are very sorry, the fair is a just judge, so he must give you your punishment. But, just as you are going to be sent to prison, a man walks in, hands the judge 500,000 dollars, and you are set free. Jesus Christ was that man that paid that fine for you. No man lives a sin free life, and if there is no way to pay the fine, you must be punished. But Jesus paid that fine for every living man. Through our salvation in Jesus, we can make it to heaven.

But, if you don't accept that free gift .. if you don't let that man pay your fine(don't believe in Jesus and don't accept Him in your life and live for Him), than you fine can't be paid. And your sins will be punished.

How is that learning right from wrong?

If someone (jesus) comes along and bails me out - what did I learn?

 

[Dizzy]

Chloesowner, I applaud you for your efford to save your virginity to your future spouse. I did, too, and was very proud of it. My husband was proud of me for keeping it for him (we dated for 3 1/2 years before marrying each other!). There will be temptations, challenges, but it's totally worth it to wait.

It proves how much you really love each other.

Did he save his for you?

I wonder how many men save theirs - seems it is only important to women.

Not to me, mines gone, and I am glad.

Sexual chemistry is important to a relationship. Not the only important thing, but a factor that bears great influence.

And also - how does that prove how much you love someone? To me, being faithful, loyal and loving says more than who I was with before.

If anything, taking the time to find the RIGHT partner is more important.

You learn an AWFUL lot about yourself being with other people, and you learn what you want.

To coin a phrase - you wouldn't buy a car without test driving it first

And before anyone says anything - sex is not what makes for a good relationship - but it helps!! And why shouldn't we want to have a fulfilling sex life as well as a fulfilling partnership? All one and the same.

 

[Ashlea]

Dizz, you and I are definately cut from the same cloth!

Tessa, that is all very well, quoting the Bible, you didn't answer my question. Do Jewish people go to hell because they do not believe Jesus to be the son of God?

 

[Buckshot]

I think they make pills now that restore virginity. I wouldnt want any girl that I was with to take em though because the first time is kinda sucky. Dizzy you are correct it only counts for women. I am ok with this being a woman only issue

It's not an issue for me

Whoops - there go my morals again!

LOL

[Caren+Bailey]

Ashlea, I'm so glad that you are being helped by your boyfriend to find God..but I'm very worried about you. No one can come to God but through Jesus, and you say you don't believe Jesus as the son of God. That makes me very very very worried.. Finding a good church, talking to pastors, and reading your bible might help to set you on the right path. And again, Iloved "Mere Christianity." It was a great book.

Why do you worry that she doesn't beleive in the Bible, Tessa?
I don't beleive......but i am a very happily married woman with 3 healthy children, a very loving husband and not forgetting Bailey
Not beleiving in god hasn't made my life turn out so bad.
What is there to worry about? I don't understand

Just read your reply to Ashley.............

When i die........*I* and *no-one* else really truely knows what is going to happen to me.
So i am not going to spend my lifetime worrying about where i go when i am gone.

 

[Ashlea]

^^ I agree with you Caren. I don't really think there is a heaven. I just think we die. I am not worried about what will happen to me. It's all good.

Dizz, what you doing later? Oops, there you go influencing me again!

 

[Dizzy]

Dizz, what you doing later? Oops, there you go influencing me again!

Fancy making mischief? lol!

Not sure why everyone calls me a bad influence.. I'm good really

(one week to go till earthdance!!!!!!!!!) :lol-sign:

 

[Ashlea]

Ooooo! Earth Dance! You had better take loads of pics for me! I am going to be stuck at a wedding in the middle of nowhere!
Seriously, this place is in the middle of nowhere. They have one Hotel, apparently it is tre' dodgy! Oh well, considering I haven't seen my virginity in years I should be used to dodgy hotels! LOL!!!!

 

[Dizzy]

I will take pictures

I seem to have single handedly reduced the morality thread to gutter talk!

Yay!

Go me :hail:

(sorry guys :lol-sign: )

 

[Dizzy]

Oh, and I have a question.

When you go to heaven (if).. do you start afresh?

Are you married?

Are you able to have sex?

Can you have sex with whoever you like?

Do you still have to live by the word of the bible?

If heaven is this better, perfect place, can you do what you want?

Otherwise, it would just be like earth - and then, why would you want to go?

Seriously - not just hypothetical questions.. Ignore the above frivolity

 

[Ashlea]

LOL! You mean there is a world outside the gutter???

I can't help it either, Fridays are the days where my morals really leave the building! Yay! Weekend. I have the batchlorette party on Saturday! It starts at 11 am on a topless bus, then pubcrawl on the beach front promonade until 7 pm and then off clubbing, where we will meet up with the guys later! Should be pretty much destroyed by Sunday! Wish me luck!!!

 

[moxiegrl]

There are actually plastic surgeons who make nice bucks doing retro-fit hymens Much ado about nothing . . .

All so that another pr**k can wreck it for her!

 

[RD]

Jeez, Renee! Don't tell my parents . . . If they knew, they'd be booking me a consultation with the virginity clinic as quickly as they could.

I really can't understand why sex in a long-term relationship is frowned upon . . . Maybe I lost my morality in the gutter.

 

[Dizzy]

Maybe I lost my morality in the gutter.

Come to join me and Ashlea have you?

It's quite the exclusive club you know

:lol-sign:

Truthfully, I found virginity to be highly overated and the ultimate badge of sexual discrimination. Got rid of it in a hurry and was glad of it

 

[RD]

Absolutely. After Earthdance you can join me and Ashlea in her dodgy hotel room and, erm . . .look for our morality. Surely someone in the hotel will have seen it, right?
