Hey @Seven I've recently overcame my abusive mother. I forgave her for her ignorance, forgave her for what she knew was wrong, but did for her pleasure. The truth is, she either didn't know what she was doing, or didnt have control of her self.

Beware the emotional "sobpology" she will use to make you feel sorry for her. JLP teaches truth when he says emotion is not part of manliness. So when she goes into full submit mode, and tries to act helpless she wants your compassion. Dont give it to her, reserve that passion for God, hold your emotion, forgive her, and fly the nest. Fly high and fast.

Love some Dredg

For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect.

God is the only hope from this deception. Everyone is being fooled, minus the ones called out of the lie by God.

I just quit smoking that stuff. I couldn't do it before I forgave what I was angry at. Once I was no longer scared/angry, I didn't even want the stuff.

@Seven Its a really good idea to have actually forgiven her in your heart before you tell her. Instead of expecting the forgiveness conversation to work like some magic spell. Also, I bet you got some anger at your dad for just letting you sit there in that abuse. He had to know.

Sometimes we have anger hidden in our heart. I thought I was good with my dad, until I realized I wasn't. Turns out he was just as forgivable as my mom.

my mom cried and acted like she was doubling over with the pain of it. "I had no idea i was like that" she said. :/ ok. My dad said Thank you

Also, spot on calling her behavior "on the offensive " instead of mistaking it as defensive. She wants you to think its defensive so you will feel like you are attacking her. Straight manipulation.

@Deleted User You can love your man, and even tell him so. You just cant give him love, or provide love to him. No more than I can give love to Christ Jesus, even though I love him. A weak man will depend on that love, he will "need" it from you to fill him. A strong man won't have to depend on it, no more than Christ Jesus depends on my love.

To answer #2 You will know you have your alpha when you love him, but he doesnt lean on it. If he starts whining and seeking your comfort, and tellin you all about his bad day looking for you to make him feel better, you got yourself a BAYTUH MALE

Also, you really shouldnt have too much in common, or else he would be like you, a woman.

I can, probably. But I have to board up some windows for this hurricane coming through.

I just found out I might be 10% Commie...^

@Deleted User Thanks, I will have to get back to those questions in a few days. We're about to be out of power for who knows how long. I'm heading inland. Say a prayer for us.

I survived Hurricane Michael! Were any of you guys following that beast? Very near a category 5 storm!

I am home, everything is fine here. We already have power restored.

Only minimal flooding on the coast line here.

poor mexico beach though. they got rekt

If "romantic" is just gestures or actions of love, then obviously an Alpha can be romantic.

agreed ^^^

I have a friend in a relationship with what I would call a sexual manipulator. He would state that she (and his ideal woman) is an Alpha Female. Is there such a thing as an Alpha female?

@Deleted User

oh snap

I only saw the question about being romantic.

thats too much to ask, can't be bothered with "scrolling"

😋

thanks, thats a good answer.

Can a relationship with a single mom be viable?

That can be asked about single dads too, (i think the answers are different)

I guess it gets more nuanced as well if you consider if they had this child out of wedlock or if there was a marriage.

Also you are probably right, no real difference between a single mom and single dad.

single parents should strive to be one and raise their children legitimately.

By getting into a relationship with either, you are an interference to that process.

So yeah, no real nuance either. Sometimes I speak too soon with whatever frivolous ideal pops into my head. I'm trying to overcome that.

Here is my clear answer, sorry for any confusion above. I think single parent dating is harmful to children, and only serves the selfishness of the parent. I know that single parents should be encouraged to set petty stuff aside and raise their children legitimately.

That's the thing, someone somewhere is going to see you as a rival. The other parent, or the child that is not yours.

I'm a "single" father too btw. This was something I did while in rebellion.

i put single in quotes because I am still married to my son's mother, although we have been living separate lives for longer than we had a relationship.

she would say we are single, or not married, and I used to too before my eyes were open

She doesn't want to. She is taken by the whole women's liberation bologna

I'm not blameless though. My behavior encouraged her. I was an angry volatile boy when we conceived and married.

That's why I support Jesse's message of rebuilding the man to rebuild the family

We are born broken, born into rebellion against God. The ONLY thing that can "fix" that is the redemption.

I thought I was saved when I was little. I said the prayer after all, and got baptized to the applause of the onlooking congregation. Boy was I deceived. It wasn't until I was truly redeemed and given a new heart that it was clear that I did that out of vanity. Its what I was told to do, and it was a way to gain acceptance from people. You could say I took the Lord's name in vain.

God works in mysterious ways though. That life now serves as proof positive of the work God started in me when I was very very young, probably even before the foundation of the world. And as He promised, he leaves no work unfinished.

interesting

The truth is, I dont know how God works. I know I had an experience when I was probably 5 or so of God pointing at me from the sky, and I immediately started asking my mom about Gods will, and asking if he had his finger over all of us, controlling what we do. She had no answers, of course. Sunday school was off and on, then we stopped going. Then I was a teenager, and my school mates went to church, so I wanted to go to, to make friends and find acceptance and validation that was seriously lacking at home. I may have already prayed for God to lead me at this point, i can't remember. But the preacher gave me the words to pray to ask for salvation, then he baptized me.

By the age of 16 I was doubting all of it, by 18 I was a proclaimed Atheist (ikr). But still Atheism left me unsatisfied for this question that sprung forth as a child. I started learning the secret things, the Occult things. I was only getting angrier and more volatile through this whole ordeal. Started doing drugs, seeking spiritual experience through them. I can't even tell you when it all clicked into place, that I DID believe in God, and all of the things I was learning were against god, for it is all Deification of the Self. This is something fairly new, since I hit my 30's. My true repentance, and acceptance of the sacrifice literally changed my whole everything.

Who knows how much destruction I caused during those times, how many were led astray or influenced by me. But it was only after that true repentance that scripture was revealed to me when I read it. Before it was just a bunch of nonsense from the stone age. Praise Him who reveals all things in the fullness of time. Praise the Almighty.

And like Jesse teaches, I had to forgive my parents and siblings before I could be forgiven. I grew up in an abusive home, what I once believed to be the cause of my bitterness. But once I accepted that they too were raised in abusive homes, and were no more in control of the destruction they caused than I was, and I didnt want the grudge any more, forgiveness replaced whatever it was I felt before. Blame? Resentment? It really does seem so far away now, like I'm trying to describe how some other person felt.

no, thats heresey @Surreal

"whosoever believeth in him shall not perish"

True, he came first for the Jews, but when they rejected him, he sent his disciples out to invite everyone who would accept.

https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Matthew+22%3A1-14&version=NKJV

God the Father is the "certain king" Jesus is the son whom the wedding is for. "Those who were invited" are Abraham's offspring through Jacob who's name was changed to Israel. The servants are the disciples, the highways are the nations outside of Israel, the Gentiles of those nations are the ones that were found and gathered together. The wedding garment is the Blood of the Lamb.

don't thank me, I just pointed to the explanation. Go pray to God and ask him to reveal these things to you. Ask and ye shall receive. Seek and ye shall find.

If he gave me the gift of the knowledge of scripture, he will give it to anyone. This is a faithful saying, and worthy of all acceptation, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners; of whom I am chief.

Unfortunately Gillum is likely to take the office 😦

Are you in Fl @Cgnet14 ?

but what also comes to mind is how widely common rape in olden times was...Sounds like SJW propaganda to me

I would say all sexual perversion stems from some sort of abuse, God's will for sex is making babies. Bondage is weird, homosex is weird, doggy style is weird. Animals dont care because they are just that, animals. they are here for us, and God causes them to procreate for us. We as humans created in His image are called to a higher path.

If you are having sex on a primal level, you live in an animalistic state, serving your lust and not God's will.

@Szayel's Pooppion

Also, among adults, nothing is "too much" as long as you are asking questions and not promoting.

@kernalkrackerz if a lack of hunting causes you to seek primal fornication, I will gladly take you hunting 😃

Who says rape was ever common?

According to whom? Can you give references to such a claim?

Y'all are wrong on this sex stuff.

lol wut, im in the lefty channel on accident.

Sex is a holy act, yall are perverts

You get this from the Bible, or the Holy Spirit, or school?

You think man made marriage? wow

Uh-mayzin

i do deny that

We started in perfect form, living face to face with God in his creation

it wont always be that way, read the last chapter

SJW confirmed

Men dominate without the rule of law means we need laws to protect women from the men...SJW doctrine

Woman was given to man, from man, by the direct act of God

not true

godless heathens

Abrams army

Y'all probably think we came from apes or something.

im not sure how we got here. Perverted sexual acts are not the will of God. having sex like beasts of the field is not fit for the children of God

Hmm yall should ask God to reveal the truth for you

look if you want to live in the doctrine of the world thats on you

That is perverted. You should ask god to take it from you

you are nasty kernal

You speak in a vulgar manner, which makes it obvious you are the child of the enemy. You should repent

I'm not trying to say love making can't be vigorous and stimulating. It should be. Just dont be like the beasts.

bondage is perversion

kernal you are so far from God I cant take you seriously

NOOOO

not true

do you even believe in God?
