Celebrating Christmas Christian Marriage And Singlehood

Because the morning air after days of sticky rain and muddy muckiness was clean and sweet and fresh, and grey baby spotted-neck pigeons, silky black baby orieoles and bandit-eyed chicks picked through the fallen leaves together, and maids chatted under shady fig trees as their silky terrier, jack russell and schnauzer charges played and chased butterflies in nearby grass patches.

Because a favourite running track was graced by the "world's tallest Christmas tree (subject to endorsement by the Guinness Book of Records)" lit every night for twenty minutes after 8pm and 10pm.

Because the coffeeshop air was cheerful, friendly, toffee-nutish, green and red and sweet.

Because the late night air was sparkling silver, white and champagne.

Because the evening air was full of white colonial iron-wrought structures, fairy lights and red cloth poinsettia, mellow jazz bands under the stars singing of love and Paris, and old couples dancing slowly, unashamedly, tall elderly husbands looking deep and smiling into the eyes of their wives, holding them steadily, guiding them gently.

Because bushy-tailed and dewy-eyed, just starting out on similar dances, grinning gang of successful proposers had night-long toasting sessions and giggling gaggles of newly-engageds had rock showings on.

Because November and December are the months of getting-togethers, of engagements and of weddings and mass celebrations of couplehood and matrimony fill the weekends with the heavy, heady perfume of joy and happiness, and hope and promise.

Celebrating Christian Marriage

I love weddings, especially the weddings of people I know are committed Christians.

One never knows where a pagan marriage is headed, and joyful though we are at that moment, the celebrations are always tainted by the knowledge that even the happy bride and groom do not expect the marriage to last, and that they have from the beginning hedged their bets with pre-nuptial agreements, separate bank accounts and legal advice on how to structure their property and investments so that the Other Side wouldn't get their filthy paws on it come the divorce. It is difficult to celebrate whole-heartedly such a temporal joy. How can I shake your hand, give you a bear hug or slap you on the back and toast to your future when your future is bleak with self-centred strife, divorce tactics, looking out for No.1 and the numbers of the next-in-line if this spouse doesn't work out?

But there is the overwhelming assurance that a marriage focused on God is the beginning of many good things to come. Not easy or smooth-sailing, but good. Difficult other-centred love and servanthood, true partnership bonded by love of God, commitment between two sinful people to work things out under their King and Master and a stable environment in which to bring children into the world to live and grow without the fear and insecurity of the family or the mother being abandoned like a used toy when a newer better model with cooler functions happens to pass by one day. For that, a row of tuxedos would wipe away a tear or two of pure gladness (jus somethin' in the eye, mate) and sniffle into their white hankies.

Celebrating Christian Singlehood

It is painful at pagan weddings to see singles falsely happy and secretly envious; or desperately despairing and flirting and chatting up every eligible looking person at the wedding, getting their cards and contact details to "further the friendship"; or obsessing and talking incessantly about the hows and what-fors of boy-girl relationships, rehashing their usually sensible noble critieria, dissing the usually unfair criteria of the opposite sex, regurgitating the methods of approaching and dating etc; or mourning what they view to be their embarrassing useless singlehood and scheming and exchanging advice on how to lose weight or go under the knife or take self-improvement classes or make themselves more interesting or go out to more places to meet funky members of the opposite sex (and sometimes same sex), so as to finally finally get married. I've even known some girls who were frantic enough to read the Bible, aiming to be "good Proverbs 31" women so as to ensnare Christian men ("because they are nicer and will treat us right"). It is a pitiful to see so many people waste their one and only life away, putting all their energy and hope on an institution and a person that would surely fail them in the end.

But what a joy it is to see at Christian weddings, a greater concentration of the strong happy Christian single friends of the bride and groom, sincerely cheering on the newly-weds, comfortable and exulting in their singlehood because of their strength and happiness in their relationship with the Creator and Sustainer of the Universe. Not a poseur-ish successful banker who is self-sufficient and has loads of hobbies and friends type of confidence, nor a narcissistic efficient pietistic Elisabeth Elliot type who throws herself into good works and improving her godliness to make herself more attractive while waiting for her prince to come type of strength (both of which carry the stench of idolatry), but the knowledge that (although something real to be found in a marriage relationship cannot be had by singles) contentment and satisfaction and companionship are not found in a marriage but in fellowship within the church family.

And still, not quite just fellowship within the church but completeness is in knowing they are loved by God himself. Not less some days than others, not less when they fail him or don't perform, but decisively, totally, despite their failures towards him; that they are loved painfully, perfectly on the cross. And completeness is in loving him back.

It's only in a correct and right relationship with God that we find total fulfilment. Discontentment, dissatisfaction and loneliness are real and understandable conditions of any human, whether married or single. So the solution is not marriage but knowing God. Only in him can we find contentment, satisfaction and companionship.

Now, dimly, we might enjoy some rest and peace. But when we finally see him face-to-face on the Last Day, we will find rest and contentment and peace and completeness unimaginable, unabridged, inexhaustible.

Which is why Matthew 22:30 says:

At the resurrection people will neither marry nor be given in marriage; they will be like the angels in heaven.Which is why Paul says in Ephesians 5:31-32:

For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and the two will become one flesh.This is a profound mystery-but I am talking about Christ and the church.Which is why the one of the Bible's last images describes heaven as a marriage feast:

Let us rejoice and be glad and give him glory! For the wedding of the Lamb has come, and his bride has made herself ready. Fine linen, bright and clean, was given her to wear. (Fine linen stands for the righteous acts of the saints.)(Revelation 19:7-8)and:

I saw the Holy City, the new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride beautifully dressed for her husband. (Revelation 21:2)So whether we are single and have never married, have been divorced, separated or widowed, whether our marriages are comfortingly strong or shakily on the rocks, our fulfilment is to be and will be utterly and absolutely and comprehensively found in a relationship with God in the new heavens and new earth. Just the way he designed us.

Enough reason to pop another bottle of champagne and celebrate Christmas. And the Boy Who Lives. Innit.

Singles And Dating Open Question French Guys Help Me Understand What He Thinking

A month ago I met this guy from Brittany, northern France. He was visiting his sister in Canada (where I live) and I happened to sit next to him at a friend of a friend's party and we struck up a conversation. All night long he was looking at me with an intense gaze. I reciprocated his interest. When his sister said they had to leave because they were leaving for New York the next day, I went to go kiss him on both cheeks as is customary in France (as per my French friends). Well, he placed his lips on mine and proceeded to french kiss me. Naturally, we made it to the bathroom where we proceeded to have hot, passionate sex. After the deed, Frenchie says he never does this and then asks me for my facebook. I tell him, but seriously doubt he will remember because he wasn't carrying a pen or his cell with him. So he leaves and though I had a great time, I think that's the end of that. Two days later, I see his friend request. We strike up a conversation through facebook but it's very mundane topics like what he saw in NY and then when he went back to France what he was taking in school. So now, I don't know what to do. I've heard from my French friends (who are girls) that in France once a guy kisses you, it's very serious. I've also heard that French guys are aloof (don't like to share their feelings) and so I don't know what to do. I've read that if I ask him where we stand, he will head for the hills running. So I don't know what to think. I've been thinking about him all day and I don't know what to do.

I Need Help With More Love After Hitting

Good evening Aunty Eya,

I never thought what is happening to me is bad until I started reading your blog. I am in an abusive relationship. I love my fiance so much and I know he loves me too. He is short tempered and so am I. I realized that my love for him increases every time he hits me. I don't enjoy the

beatings, I break down and cry after that but the way he regrets his actions and comes back begging and ready to do anything possible to make me happy. Once he starts pleading, I just melt and can't even say no.

Whenever there is an argument, I know that I also talk too much but does that mean he should hit me? We are getting married in September, my family doesn't know he hits me and I will be the last person to tell them because my Dad will just bulldoze me out of this relationship. I can't live without him.

I spend most of my weekends with him and arguments over how the wedding should be is what leads to fights. He wants to be involved in everything, even my dress, isn't he supposed to wait and see it for the first time when I march towards him in church? I've told him he cannot see my dress but he insists that he wants to see and have an opinion because he thinks I may try to bring fashion into a wedding dress and end up wearing a too revealing dress on that day, Imagine. I keep asking how is that his business and that's how the arguments begin.

Where I need help the most is in the area of loving him more after a fight. Is that alright? Is something wrong with me? I hear people advise women to flee abusive relationships but here am I falling more in love every time I am abused. What can I do please? I need help. Help me post and give me advise too, please Aunty.

Thank you.This article is (c) Copyright - All rights reserved

By Cody

From my experiance ( 39 year old virgin vegan male), most woman are put off by male virgins, especially the older you get, seems to be the case for most virgin guys. Sure there must be some women who appreciate a virgin guy, but its like a needle in a hay stack. Normal human dating is so very messed up since the internet happened. People are now more socially awkward and inept in public than before and have resorted to internet dating sites like Plenty of Fish that are even less productive. Those sites might have worked few years ago when they came out, but now they are pretty much a place for self absorbed women to feel good about themselves and laugh at the decent sincere men and will never get any attention from them. Maybe ot works for some qually loving couples, but not many. Dont even get me started with how the world treats vegans like me, thats a whole other level of rejection. Its a cruel world self destructing. : (

The Advocacy Committee For Women Concerns And Their Advice On Overtures Pushing Same Gender Marriage

The Advocacy Committee for Women's Concerns on all overtures that are meant to change the Book of Orders language about marriage from "between a man and a woman" to "between a couple" advises the 219th General Assembly to approve the overture. They place their rationale on item 12-07. There they write:

"The practice of excluding people who are gay and lesbian from marriage has its roots in the persistence of patriarchal standards for the lives of women and men. The notion that men and maleness is superior dictates that men and women behave in particular ways that abide by the rules their sex dictates. For this reason, same-gender loving women and men are perceived as a direct threat to the norms that patriarchy lays out, as they, in their loving, challenge the models of prescribed masculinity and femininity that patriarchy determines. Gay men are a threat as they are perceived as "too feminine," and lesbian women are perceived as "too masculine."

In withholding the right to marry from same-gender loving people, the church is upholding this patriarchal standard for humanity. As a group committed to standing against patriarchy and its effects within the world and the church, ACWC advocates that same-gender loving women and men be allowed to participate in the commitment of marriage. The ACWC draws particular attention to the vulnerability of lesbian women in this exclusion, as these particular members of the body of Christ find themselves excluded and marginalized both for their gender identity and sexual orientation."

The ACWC, having just admitted that one of their goals is to advocate for same gender marriage, have, in their advice, placed themselves on the side of those who are adversaries of the one holy universal church. They are not in this case advocating for the needs of women but are instead stepping on biblical truths valued and upheld by many Presbyterian women.

Going further they have insulted the husbands and friends of many Presbyterian women who also value and uphold biblical truth. They have insulted my husband, my sons, my grandsons, sons-in-laws and friends.

In my estimation they have lost all sensitivity towards those they are called to help. If the ACWC was a committee that was part of such affinity groups as More Light Presbyterians or the Covenant Network giving this advice would make sense. But then, in fairness, they would not be allowed to place such advice on an overture meant to be voted on by Presbyterian commissioners. They are after all a Presbyterian Church (USA) committee meant to advocate for women's needs.

There is an even greater loss of sensitivity in their action. The ACWC is basing their advice on radical feminist theories rather then on the commonsense of the Bible. They have lost their care for scripture and instead are standing with the popular culture of the day. They are failing to be prophetic.

The ACWC have lost their sensitivity to the warnings and enlightenment of the Holy Spirit. They are rejecting the words of Christ as he reaches back to the beginnings of Scripture and insists that marriage is between a man and a woman. (Matt. 19: 3-7)

May the Holy Spirit sweep the church, once again, lifting up Jesus Christ and his word. May we bow before the holy God who calls us, while bearing the righteousness of Christ, and follow in obedience.
