Remember that time that @albertmohler and JMac told all of twitters that we weren’t Christians if we didn’t vote for Trump? Welp guess the jokes on me! Amirite fellas!
NAWLLLL honey…you are in the throes of Find Out because you went ahead sowed the seed of “Eff Around.” Buckle up, sweetheart.
I’m so happy to hear that you’ve been chosen as the first tribute in the reaping.
Johnny Cage should really stick to playing with Ninja Turtles and not psychoanalyze what women do after a man treats them like crap and why.
A hard truth about a fairly regular phenomenon with divorced women:
It's a notable and regular observation that a divorced woman will begin focusing on her appearance, going to the gym, eating well, beautifying herself, being gentle, warm, and sweet. She tries to be attractive to potential suitors. She focuses on not only how she looks, but, how she comes across. She buys new clothes. She tries to smile more at men she's interested in. She shows interest. She acts gentle and sweet. She tries to be engaging in conversation. She does all the things necessary to attract a man to demonstrate that she is a "catch." She shows interest in men. She works hard at it. She may even remember to flirt with someone she's interested in. She makes her attraction to other men obvious.
All things that she likely abandoned and had no concern for with the man she made a covenant with before God and witnesses. In divorce, there are sins and failures on both sides. Always. Sometimes, there are instances of high-handed victimization (like adultery, abuse, neglect, and abandonment). However, it is interesting to note that oftentimes, the divorced woman begins to live in a way that she refused to live with the man who loved her and committed his life to her. The tragedy is worsened by the fact that she will often do more, after divorce, for an unknown potential man than she was willing to do for the man who committed his life to her. Sometimes, the motivation in her new appearance and manner is to make her ex-husband jealous. However, it only makes him angry and often bitter. Because he knows that she never cared enough for him to do those things. But, she is willing to do it for a faceless, nameless, idea of a potential new husband. He thinks, "Who is this gentle, sweet, engaging, smiling, and beautiful woman who shows attraction to other men?" He forgot what that was like.
This is to say, ladies, it's better to love and pursue the man God already gave you with that energy. Invest in having a romance with the man you already promised to honor. It might turn out very well for you both.
Living like this, after divorce, only shows that your promise to honor your husband wasn't kept. More honor is given to other men than the one who committed to you.
Yes, I have things to say about divorced men, too.
The fact that absolutely nobody was trained to fill John’s shoes speaks volumes as to what was most important at GCC. And…unsurprisingly it wasn’t the congregation. JM didn’t die suddenly, he was elderly and should have enjoyed being fed by a new Shepherd…along WITH the flock.
Justin is a product of the rotten fruit of Legalism. According to Justin’s latest tally, only 6 people are actually going to heaven.
The day after John MacArthur died, Tullian Tchividjian essentially accused him of preaching a false gospel. Now he praises Ozzie Osbourne (who called himself "The Prince of Darkness"), calling him his brother. If you think John MacArthur preached a false gospel and "The Prince of Darkness" is your brother - you're doing theology wrong.
This is the bad fruit of antinomian, cheap grace.
One of my most treasured moments happened in my preaching course. My professor said to the male students (I being the only female) how utterly impressed he was with my sermon choices and the handling of the scripture. But don’t you worry Ryan, most of the men were appalled as you
are. I bet you wished he had made me feel small, stupid, and remind me of that dadgum letter from Paul to Timothy. Oh how those men longed to have their misogynistic vibe restored, and not have to constantly be thinking about how that woman should NOT be here! I bet you’re also
