The end of the world as we know it?

Hey everyone, I'm new to this site but already I'm finding that it is a decent place for some good convos. The world is going through strange times isn't it? Our Lord and savior is closer now than ever before. I am excited to meet the savior of the world, but I still have some goals I hoped to complete before the end. I know that we should not cling to worldly things, but is it wrong to have the goal of meeting a like minded Christian woman to marry before the end of all things?

I am content with whatever the Lord provides, for it is the Lord's will that will be done and not mine. It would be nice to meet someone who desire to share in stories and experiences and to build each other up in Christ. In the past I chased after the wrong kind of thing, but now I know my main purpose is to be a man of Christ. If anything I will be happy to at least make a good friend.

Well I am a single guy so isn't this the right place? As for a family I'm not concerned with trying to raise a family during the end days. I already have amazing children. I'm simply looking for someone to spend time with and share experiences. Friends first of course, as a good foundation would need to be made for anything to last.

I will give you a perspective on how the thing with friends first and then I want you in my bed all to myself looks to many women...a trap.

Friendship ought to be unconditional. So lets just hang out and be friends with whoever and not worry about marriage cos in heaven there aint gonna be any marriage we will be as angels.

Was this perspective based on your own personal experience which soured you on such relationshps?

I think plenty of women I know have had such an experience!!! Not just me. and with other Christians! Look around on this site some are even posting now on singles forum how this or that guy lied to them and broke their heart. would it be insensitive to then go on their thread and go hey, are you likeminded and would you like to be friends with me with view to a marriage?

well you dont have to marry to be friends so please dont bring marriage into it is all Im saying.

For women marriage is a lot of unncessary bondage!

We all have goals and aspirations do we not. I see you are against such a thing and so that is good for you. Let each of us be convinced as to what is good for our own ways. As for me I am content with whatever the Lord provides.

Snuggling and cuddling with just a friend could prove to be problematic.

Love in a marriage should be unconditional, with friends it is very much conditional, at least that has been my own personal experience along with observation.

Interesting thing about marriage in heaven though. Marriage is a contract between a consenting man, a woman, and God and the standard is that it is valid and enforceable until one or the other dies. In heaven there will be no death so therefore there will be no marriage, at least in the way that is known and understood.

I believe that there certainly will be intimate romantic relationships in heaven but that is just my own personal view based on my understanding of certain parts of scripture. The bible says that we will be like the angels are. The question then, is, how are the angels?

probably the majority of single christian women have actually had this experience!
not to mention stalkers! lol

thats how it is, sadly. anyway...so regarding children OP how old are they and how many do you have. Just wondering. what happened to their mum. Or is that being nosy?
