Bible Question:
HELLO EVERYONE, I AM IN NEED OF A LOT OF ENCOURAGEMENT. I JUST BROKE UP WITH MY LONG TIME BOYFRIEND, BECAUSE HE DECIDED HE DID NOT WANT TO BE A DISCIPLE OF JESUS CHRIST ANYMORE. WE HAVE BEEN TOGETHER FOR ALL MOST 5 YEARS AND WE HAVE A SON TOGETHER. ABOUT A YEAR AND A HALF AGO I GOT BAPTIZED, THEN 6MOS. LATTER HE GOT BAPTIZED ALSO. WE WERE VERY CLOSE TO GETTING MARRIED BUT HE BEGAN STRUGGLING SPIRITUALLY. IT STARTED WHEN HIS MOTHER DIED, NOW IT HAS TURNED INTO HIM NOT WANTING TO BE A CHRISTIAN ANY LONGER. I DEFINITELY STRUGGLED AND PLEADED WITH HIM, BECAUSE HE IS MAKING THE BIGGEST MISTAKE OF HIS LIFE. I TOLD HIM OUR RELATIONSHIP WOULD BEGIN TO CHANGE ONCE HE MADE THIS DECISION, AND IT HAS GREATLY, ABOUT A MONTH AGO WE STARTED ARGUING A LOT AND HIS PRIORITIES BEGAN TO CHANGE. OF COURSE HE CAN'T SEE WHAT I AM SAYING, ABOUT HIM HE JUST THINKS THAT HE HAS EVOLVED SO MUCH AS A PERSON THAT HE CAN'T ACCEPT THAT THERE IS ONLY "ONE TRUTH". HE BELEIVES CHRISTIANITY CAN'T BE THE ONLY WAY. FOR THIS REASON I KNEW WE HAD TO PART WAYS, BECAUSE HE BEGAN TO MAKE ME STRUGGLE SPIRITUALLY ALSO. THIS IS REALLY HARD BECAUSE IT SEEMS LIKE ALL OF THE SUDDEN MY WHOLE LIFE HAS CHANGED. AND SATAN HAS BEEN REALLY ATTACKING ME ALSO, NOW I REALLY DON'T KNOW IF I MADE THE RIGHT DECISION OR NOT, BECAUSE IT FEELS LIKE TO ME LIKE WE JUST ABANDONED EACH OTHER MAYBE WE COULD HAVE DONE MORE OR I COULD HAVE SAID SOMETHING DIFFERENT TO MAKE HIM SEE THE TRUTH. I ALSO FEEL REALLY ANGRY WITH HIM BECAUSE I FEEL LIKE WE HAD SOMETHING WONDERFUL TOGETHER, A COMMON LOVE FOR GOD …WE BASED OUR WHOLE RELATIONSHIP ON GOD AND THE TEACHINGS IN THE BIBLE AND OUR RELATIONSHIP WAS AMAZING. SINCE HE DECIDED TO WALK AWAY FROM GOD NOTHING IS THE SAME…NOT TO BE WHINNY OR ANYTHING LIKE THAT…BUT ITS NOT FAIR!!! MY HEART IS BROKEN. I AM NOT ASKING HIM DO ANYTHING OUTRAGEOUS I JUST WANT HIM TO LOVE GOD THE WAY HE USED TO FOR HIS OWN SALVATION. |
Bible Answer: Dear Heaven- I have been where you are at minus the child. I was married to a woman who seemed to love God but in the course of marriage we ended up having a miscarriage. This pushed me closer to the Lord and pushed her away. My analysis of the situation is that neither my ex-wife or your boyfriend ever truelly walked with the Lord. They only confessed with their lips but didn't truely believe in their heart. Once you taste the truth you can never go back to swallowing the lie. If one truelly is saved they can never lose their salvation. Trust me I know first hand I tried to walk away and I knew better, but here I am struggling it out one day at a time. I know without a doubt that I am saved and that jesus Christ has me in the cnter of the palm of His hand and no one or nothing can get me out. I echo another you must get yourself and child into a healthy well balanced church. There are godly councelors there. Don't stop praying for your boyfriend's salvation. God bless you Heaven and take care.-Jeshuafreak |
