justme-Thank you for your insight. Repentence, then forgiveness. To be sincerely repentant. Not just forgiveness without repentance. We have been through more than you can imagine with my son. He is a constant liar. We asked a simple question if they are living together and fornicating. We get a harsh email from her mother (also a Christian) stating that she as well as the pastor see nothing wrong with her living there because nothing wrong is going on. Why didnt my son and his fiance tells us that themselves? Why the lying? How are we to trust him? He has lied and justified it so many times. He lies (and uses God as well) to get what he wants. It is hard to admit this but it is true. We are the ONLY ones(outside of the Lord) that know so much about him as well as the truth. He is disrespectful and rude to us as well as very prideful (he always has been even as a child he would never humble himself).If he can not humble himself before man he will never humble himself before God. This whole thing has been a big mess. Instead of the pastor, her mom and us dealing with them about this, my husband and I are having to justify our standards which are God's standards. They are being disobedient and with the blessings of other Christians. | ||||||

Thank you for your answer. Though you state "that just because someone says they are a Christian , they are" is not true. By their fruits-they are known. What is TRULY in their heart? Would they die for their faith? Would they forsake ALL to stand for what God's Word says? If non-believers were living together out of wedlock I would explain to them the reason I would not be attending their wedding either. How can a Christian put their approval on a wedding that is a mockery.Example: the bride wearing white as a sign of purity when she isnt pure. If a Christian or a non-beleiver "blows it" and fornicates and repents (turns from it)and stops fornicating than fine-no problem about attending the wedding. But if they continue in their sin than as Christians we can not put our blessing on the marriage by attending. Why is there no accountablity for us-for anything. Christians do not stand on God's Truth. There is not much difference between most Christians and the world. We have been "conformed to the world" though scripture tells us to do the complete opposite. We love our son more than our own life but we love God's Word more.You say to show them unconditional love-Is it unconditional love or compromise? | ||||||
