Hello IN2JESUS, I am too. In to Jesus that is: like your screen name. Hey, looks like you have a struggle here, sorry 'bout that. But don't be so hard on yourself. I want to try and help you. Let me start with a question, just for you to think about before anything else. Is there any jealously involved on your part here? If so repent of it and ask forgiveness and then see what happens in these relationships. OK, first of all, it is not wrong or sinful to disagree with someone else. You might not even like them but I think I read in your words that it is not really them, but their behavior that you do not like. Good, if their behavior is wrong, you shouldn't like it and you shouldn't go along with it, and you shouldn't partake in it. After that though, you have a responsibiity to love them in spite of their shortcomings: John 13:34 A new command I give you: Love one another . As I have loved you, so you must love one another NIV But what if they are not a christian? Jesus also said: Matt 5:44 4 But I tell you: Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you..." NIV Notice Jesus did not say "agree with" or "go along with". No, Love them He said. Finally Jesus' command to love others implies that there will be action on your part that is observable by others. So love is something we demonstrate not just say to ourselves that we are doing, it will be obvious to others. John 13:35 By this all men will know that you are my disciples, if you love one another. NIV Hope this helps, Jeff |

Hello In2Jesus, I am at work now and checking my emails and saw you had responded. I don't have the time to respond in depth but I will get back to you with some bible references that apply to your situation and may help guide and comfort you. Let me say this though. Take this in love, it is meant to help you not offend you. The forum is not intended to be a source of counseling one another and for good reason. Consequently, I will not advise you in any way regarding "my opinion" about how you should proceed with your son. I will give this advise though. Obviously pray for your son, and this woman and her children. Also go to another Christian you can trust (preferrably a pastor or other that will counsel you from the bible). Make sure this person is someone who will keep your and your son's (and the woman's) confidentiality. In love and best wishes, Jeff |
