Great question. An example of Biblical Principle would be that obeying one's head has good consequences. I believe principles work well regardless of one's religious beliefs. If you obey your leader, it usually fares well for you (unless your leader is wicked). Biblical Insight is something not explicitly stated in scripture perhaps but that one can discern from reading the bible. For examle, when I read parts of the bible, I got insight into the character of God. I saw that He was good and merciful to people who didn't deserve it. I saw that He had a master plan from the very beginning. I saw that there's more to life than what we do on Earth. Biblical Commandment is something meant only for believers. For example, we are commanded for forgive. It is not a suggestion or an option; we absolutely must do it if we are believers.

I believe that religion (when used as a scare tactic) CAN be used to control people who misunderstand Christianity, but when Christians fully realize the liberty and grace that is found in relationship with God in "Christianity", (a new, unbiblical term probably constructed to make us Believers' faith be easier to categorize when discussing and differentiating between all faiths/religions), then religion will lose its grip. God has not offered Gentile and Jewish Christians a new form of Judaism; He's offered us freedom in relationship. If He wanted just religion, He could have just added a couple hundred more Old Testament laws. He wants relationship; He got plenty of religion, fear, and compliance in the Old Testament.

Success is achieving POSITIVE, PRODUCTIVE goals AS one should. Being a successful prostitute, for example, wouldn't be counted a success if you ask me. And being a positive schoolteacher whose class has a 100% retention rate also wouldn't be considered success if you ask me. So success to me is achieving POSITIVE AND PRODUCTIVE goals.

Yes. More ready than I've ever been. I wasn't always ready, but God did some "heart surgery" on me which enabled me to love as I should. I'm still a work in progress though, but who isn't? I have skills for a long-lasting, healthy, successful marriage that I didn't gave at first. All glory goes to God for that.

Maybe if I knew who you were and knew you were a safe person.

Maybe microevolution. I believe that organisms with the favorable features required for their particular environment outlive those without that favorable feature. And because they have and outlive with those favorable features, they're the only ones left alive to reproduce more offspring with that same favorable feature. For example, if you live in a land where only blondes are preferred as mates, only blondes will get sexual partners. And after a few generations, you'll see no brunettes or red heads. Not because all the brunettes and red heads started growing blond hair in order to fit in, but because only blondes could attract mates in that land and so only blondes could have sex and reproduce.

Yes, but it doesn't matter now because I'm seeing someone. Lol

Faith is an unseen belief by which you operate by. It determines what you do. For example, some have faith that a chair they never sat in before will hold up their body, and so they sit in it. And some have bigger faith that a divine, invisible Being named God will save their souls and give them eternal life through His Son Jesus upon their death. And so they trust in that and believe in that until it happens. Faith is an invisible thing by which one lives and governs their life.
-
Both. I have tidy spells where I clean like a madman. But I can also go a couple weeks without caring about neatness.

I'm "single' I guess. But technically, in God's eyes, I'm in a long-distance relationship. I'm Here in the Now, but my soon-to-be husband is There in the Future. We're going to meet each other eventually when God thinks it's the best timing.
-
I'm not looking for a husband, but boy are my eyes open in case one comes my way! lol
-
Nope. But in God's eyes, it is a form of disobedience and carnality. Just like incest, adultery, promiscuity, prostitution, pornography, bestiality, etc. are disobedience and carnality.
-
I found this out a few weeks ago. The answer is no. Positive thinking is a human FABRICATING a good future for themselves. Faith is a human believing what God has already predestined good for my future.

by introducing you to the Hope-Giver. If it were possible, I'd give you hope through another source; but that kind of thing doesn't exist. There is no true, LASTING hope apart from God through Jesus. :)
-
I'd give it to God. Because when I gave Him reign over my world, He made it so much better! Besides, I don't have enough patience to deal with 6 billion stubborn earthlings!

Blue letter bible. You can download it from blueletterbible.org. It is awesome. It has a concordance that tells you what each word is in the original Greek (for the NT) and the original Hebrew (for the OT). It has many commentaries (audio and literary). And it has probably every bible version.
-
Yep. A few times actually. But I keep rereading it because each year, God gives me more wisdom about its truths and opens up certain passages to me. Everytime I read it, it's like a new book. I'll probably be reading it every day of my life.
-
It ain't much! haha What use is it knowing about something you can't apply? I can know a medicine will help me, but I could also lack the wisdom about not overdosing. Wisdom tells you how. Knowledge only tells you what!
