I joined this forum from Guyana, South America , we have the same nonsense here, the MO left on us by the British and the result - hundreds of unmarried well-educated feminists over 35 who are doing a disservice to my country by not having a...

Hi @majeera, and welcome to Biblical Families. It's great to have someone from Guyana join the forum. Thanks for your post here. Would you be willing to post an introduction in the Introduction section and tell us a little more about yourself...

If a person doesn't need to know, or the information isn't relevant to a conversation, I don't tell. Our personal lives are personal.

While I agree there shouldn't be the FOMO so men to marry in their 20s, there also shouldn't be such a focus on having worldly stuff that men are left frustrated, and are tempted to become sexually active.

I know men need sanctification, but they also shouldn't feel rushed to marry in their 20s, when there are good women, who will be available when they get older. In other words, they shouldn't feel rushed because they think that the only women...

That is the mindset of most people. Polygyny bad. Age Gap bad. That was certainly my mindset when I was in my 20s. It made me feel safe from the notion that someone older might try to swoop in and snatch the available females in my age bracket...

Wow! It seems like there is either a low threshhold for what you have to do in order to get one of these enforced, or they are bluffing. It is one thing to file a document; it is entirely different to get law enforcement to act on it, I would...

Paul deals with this battle in Romans 7:15-25, among other places. It is obvious from the various events recorded in the Old Testament Scriptures involving, e.g. Samson and Delilah, David and Bathsheba, etc., and passages such as 1 Corinthians...

Is this the battle of flesh and spirit? I so often feel like I've passed this point, then I have to wonder. When I take interest in a woman it isn't the same as when I was a teen or in my 20s. But age can't automatically qualify me for...

Yes, those who want to avoid fornication or burning passions should get married.

but paul is presupposing that only those ready for marriage should get married

My concern with encouraging young men to wait to marry until their late twenties or older is that their hormones are at DEFCON 1 long before then. The biblical instruction is to marry rather than burn with passion (1 Cor. 7:7). To avoid...
