hello =)
i've been separated for over four years now from a man who was a student of sc. i met him back in 96 and we were young students of the Word when we married in 97. even though there was a 'common thread' in that we could talk about the antichrist etc, the 'living in the flesh' and not committing to a life of the Truth doomed it from day one. he 'knew' the Truth but could and would not (still to this day) give up on the alcohol and drug binges. the reason we married was because 'o my goodness SOMEONE knows the Truth so i better latch on while i can'. it isn't easy to find someone who knows the Truth, much less someone that you are also able to live with. imo, trust in that if Father means for someone to come along, they will. but even then, use lots, and lots of discernment. seek first the kingdom of heaven and the business of serving Father. that's what's keeping my thoughts occupied now. that's one of the reasons i'm plowing through the book of daniel at such a 'fast' pace. it keeps me busy. but i'm human. the flesh does creep in and say 'what if?' and 'how come someone else can be happy in a relationship and be married?' why can't i have that? sigh.....then again, the flesh creeps in just like when the stomach growls when you're hungry. keep in mind that sometimes its better to be alone and at peace than with someone and in a constant fight. what about the proverb about: (paraphrased) its better to be in the far corner of a roof than in a house with an angry woman? =) love in Jesus, margie |

Hi Margie,
Thank you for your personal story. I'm sorry your marriage was so hurtful. I pray one day he will stop the alcohol & drugs. I agree and like that quote too. Proverbs 25:24 It is better to dwell in the corner of the housetop, than with a brawling woman and in a wide house. That goes for a brawling man too ! Carnationgirl/Patricia
1 Corinthians 13:12) For now we see through a glass, darkly; but then face to face: now I know in part; but then shall I know even as also I am known.(13) And now abideth faith, hope, charity, these three; but the greatest of these is charity. |

Greetings margie,
First off, thanks for the honesty and being so forth coming in your post. Always look ahead for the end result and never behind.   Quote:  I hear you loud and clear.  What if this individual (new acquaintance) is weakening you in some way or fashion? Our Father knows where He wants you to be and nowhere else. This new individual could weaken you to commit the unforgettable sin.  God Forbide!   Our Father has enough love for you to not allow this! Just some food for thought is all.   Stay in His Word and keep watch!  In His Service, Ken |

hello =)
ken, there is another way i like to look at this (esp when the flesh tries to creep up). with everything going on with current events and if that time truly, truly is very soon--which would i rather be 'caught doing': listening to the flesh, or working in the field. its a good way to tell the flesh where to go....=)...doesn't always work esp when i'm tired...but Jesus fasted 40 days/nights before He was tempted and He still held strong.... i do agree that esp at this time that satan is going to use whatever weaknesses we have to draw us off course. that's why its time to shore up and crazy glue the cracks in the armor. but, its always wise to keep your eyes open because you never know when a human blessing is going to walk through your door....just use discernment.... love in Jesus, margie |

It's also possible to meet them locally or at other social events...like concerts on New Years Eve, whatever. The Internet really bring a lot of us together.

Talk about a subject that hits home. I'm in the Milwaukee area and the only people I know who are students of SC, are family. I've tried visiting various churches (all different denominations), and just don't feel comfortable being there. The only place I have ever been able to find like minded Christians is online. Forget about finding a mate, it's hard enough making friends. I have tried finding people in the area to gather for study to no avail. Anybody else from M
 ilwaukee area? |

Iam honered at your invite ,but Iam 54 yrs. young,LOL. Stay focased in Yah's word,and if it be his will He will bring the right person to you. If you are not careful,you might fall into a snake pit,and not know it till its too late! Sometimes it is better to be on your own,than to be trapped in a bad marriage,or relationship!

Cupid put a sticky on this thread so that those who come here and see 'SC DATING' may find it.
Praying for all the singles out there, I think you are very wise to look for a likeminded mate!!! May God lead you to the one for you!  R'For the commandment is a lamp; and the law is light; and reproofs of instruction are the way of life'. Proverbs 6:23

Hi Kyle,
Well I'm on the opposite end of that spectrum as I am married and we both study with SC and on our own. But I do remember the days of trying to find a good christian man to marry. Now I'm sort of like you except I have a 22 year old sister who met this "so called" man and she had a baby with him. Well now because of some of his bad habits the social services will not allow him to see his child which is 5 months old. Anyways she is such a sweet girl and smart etc. but for some reason maybe low self esteem thinks she can't or she won't consider finding someone else. I wish so much I good find her a good man and for her to know what it is to be truly loved and respected. I was adopted at birth and just found my brother and sister in 2004 and our mom died when my sister was 13 and then my sisters dad died 7 months later and she was raised by my brother. Right at the time she needed a mom or a females influence she did not have it. My brother was so hoping me finding them would have an influence on her. It has somewhat but no matter what this man does she loves him. Lord how I pray my sister will find a good and responsible man to love her and my neice. I have often thought if only she could find a someone who studied with SC then my mind would be at ease and less worry about her and my neice. :) Sorry to ramble on but just keep my sister in prayer. I think she feels she may never find someone if she lets this man go who is very bad news and doesn't seem to be able to change. She supported him when they were together. She is such a sweet girl with so much to learn. Keep her in prayer for all i want for her is a good man and a good life for both her and my neice. |

What's Marriage to an human like? We single males listen to all the divorce stories etc.., and it sounds strange.
Folks got the one thing singles would love to have rich or poor, and so many can't make it work. Heck, someone who may not be able to do the flesh part would be better than nothing (freindship with the other side being different). Well, maybe it's the if you haven't worn them sandles you won't understand things. Hear all these ladies talk about how bad their man is, what would a good man be for you? ALL of us man are Bad to most, with an occasional ray of hope a day. Found coffee with cream or milk tasted just like Guiness Irish beer, or most of your heavy dark beer (thats if you like good Tar colored coffee). Alot cheaper!!! Cold Fosters good on occasion. |

Liongrey, from what I hear marriage is not much different from being with the person you love, and are going to get married to. Just for the woman she gets a
ring on her finger, and the man gets the privilage of knowing she's his, and for the rest of their lives he's going to have to put up with her LOL J/K.
Seriously, I think marriage is a beautiful thing (when it works that is).
Si Vis Pacem, Para Bellum.
