Religion / Re: "I Repeat It, Christians Defend Yourself" - Apostle Suleman by AbStephS(m): 9:37am On Jan 26, 2017
Since these herdsmen are for Libya according to our "able" president and as well from Mali and Senegal according to the Northern governors, I guess what our untiring soldiers should do is to take them on, I think they should see them as external forces disrupting the nations' peace but unfortunately they can so what do u have us do. Sit, fold arms while they continue shedding unarmed innocent blood? Anyone Christian who think this is persecution is deceiving him/herself. check the meaning of persecution well. I don't support killing though. Just don't know how to react

2 Corinthians 6:14 reminds us of the importance of being bound together with believers. Genesis 2:24 tells us there is no greater binding experience than the commingling of two people into one, in this thing we call marriage. God knows the difficulty that comes with making two into one, and he encourages his children to be yoked together with someone with whom they can become fully one—physically, emotionally, and spiritually. We are holistic beings, and in order to truly connect, we must find someone with whom we can connect on every level.

Many Christian singles, even those considering pursuing relationships with people outside of the church, know this deep down. But waiting for love can be trying. It's easy to grow weary in waiting and attempt to jump into a relationship with someone that you may connect with physically and emotionally, but not spiritually—believing that this is as good as it gets and settling for less than best. For people who find themselves in this situation, it's important to remember the reason for the waiting.

Dating is the obvious precursor for marriage, because we ultimately marry one of the people we date. So, if you are a Christian or interested in dating and possibly settling down with a fellow Christian?
