Hi, JRoland... Welcome to the forum! We do not have sufficient information concerning the particulars needed to offer to you advice about personal affairs. Indeed, based on the Terms of Use, doing so would be contrary to the objectives for the forum by our gracious host. Furthermore, it would be unwise to accept the sagacity of those of us who participate in the forum. For specifics like the question you are asking, you need someone who knows you well, and knows your strengths and weaknesses in the light of Scripture; i.e, you should see your pastors or elders in the church. In Him, Doc |

Please help me understand. This is not an attempt to counter doc's answer but a true desire to know the format here. I see this question to be one that can be biblically answered, Starting with Proverbs 3:5,6 With a Sincere desire to help others that struggle in different ways and beginning by pointing the focus on Jesus. I believe that handling this is within the TOU. The fact that the question appears not to be biblically motivated OK not under TOU, to me, doesn't discount that believers and non-believers struggle daily with how to conduct their actions. In this question one may see: pride, ego, fear and apprehension or, can be straight confusion on what God is doing in his life. How should we biblically approach questions like this within the TOU from those who, being sincere, would ask questions to better their walk with Jesus? I agree with doc that you should see a Godly man and find counsel from one who knows you best. However, I know men that search constantly to find one that they can trust. I also however think that if this is strictly an intellectual and theological forum, It is missing the point of the Gospel. Let me ask the question differently. "Were in the bible can I find how to make life changing decisions while keeping Christ first in my thoughts?" If the objectives of this forum are misunderstood by me, please give me guidance. . In Christ, Thank you |

Pjmacaz Your are right Prob 3:5-6 is a good answer. But Doc's answer is correct. Many people come to this forum advice. Most of the time they are really looking for agreement to the conclusion they have already made and only supply enough info that we would tend to agree with the conclusion they have already reach. Also there is the issue of accountability. None of us are really accountable to this person. When people need advice they need to be talking to some one that is accountable to them for their answer. In most case it is their pastor who is accountable to them for their advice. An example of a valid question and one we might have been able to help with would be "is there any verse that addresses working for someone you had trained?" In this I would have said not scripture does not speak to such a situation. |

I agree. Doc was right. He is generous in his approach to redirecting. I, being new to this forum, am learning the counsel given in the TOU about not having personal, face to face, interaction. By your response, my first thoughts went to Timothy and John Mark in this situation. I have problems, sometimes articulating what really is in my heart with clarity. However I am familiar all to well with forums that get pulled away from the true reason for fellowship. That's why I am here. I thank You and Doc for your longevity on this forum and your efforts to keep newcomers focused and encouraged. At times I may not understand the response but am encouraged that there are those who strive for grace in correction. Thank you again Thanks to Doc and Thanks to our Savior Jesus the Christ In Him Manny |
