Rather then narrowly restricting discussion to the original topic I think it is important to examine the marriage issue from a Biblical perspective. However I don't believe I have anything more to say.

There is also the Ask a Pastor section on this forum. You could ask for advice there.

Praying for you. I do caution against marrying a woman who is not a Christian as this could shipwreck your faith or create problems living a Christian life. It is also forbidden by scripture. Christians who marry non Christians rather then converting their spouse are more likely to be dragged...

The snow has stopped, although we could still have some additional small amounts. Thirteen inches (33 centimeters) at this point.

The beliefs of a church can and often do reflect the values of the wider culture. Values vary between a cultures and over time within a culture. God's values and principles are enduring.

Albion, I am interested in having an accurate understanding of Christian principles and doctrine. The practices of specific denominations, the Roman Catholic Church or the Orthodox Church do not interest me if they do not accurately reflect scripture.

Albion and YESLORDIWILL let me state at the outset that I am not Roman Catholic but probably Charismatic Christian, if a label is helpful. I am however, irregardless of the label, interested in getting at the root of Christian theology and what I believe. It is difficult for me to get away from...

The Jesus Revolution Movie is significantly outperforming expectations in regard to attendance and revenue earned. Greg Laurie is hoping that the movie will help spark a revival similar to that which occurred in the late 60's and early 70's and feels that the climate is ripe for such a revival...

Can you please clarify what you mean? What constitutes traditional beliefs? What would signify a change in these beliefs? Are you saying that faith doctrine s a departure from traditional Christian beliefs?

Welcome and may God bless both of you.

It seems to me this thread has become somewhat contentious and I will most likely cease any further posts. Constantine, according to tradition, had a dream in which Jesus told him that if he employed the cross he would have victory against a rival contender to the throne of the Roman Empire...

The early Christian Church prior to Constantine was pacifist. Pacifism was later replaced by the Just War Doctrine.
