Dating For Christians – Meet the Christian Girls of Your Dreams (or fantasies)

If there is one thing that confuses men in modern society, it is how to meet the beautiful girl of their dreams. Many people try all sorts of things to match them up with someone perfect: blind dates, meeting someone through a friend, going to social events and parties.

Usually, these events are too superficial. You might meet someone you think you like at first, but after getting to know them you realize they don’t share any of the same beliefs and values that you do.

With the advent of christian dating sites and dating services for christians, this is a thing of the past. When you fill out a profile at a christian dating website such as True Christians, you put technology to work for you. Their state of the art technology matches your beliefs, values, and personality, as well as what you want physically from a girl.

This results in people being happy all around: not only do they meet someone who shares their values, goals, and ambitions, both people are usually very surprised at how attractive the person is as well.

Dating for Christians used to be confined to the local church group or Christian event. This is very limiting because you can only meet people from your parish and local area, many of which you are likely to have already met and decided you do not like.

Many people would not feel comfortable traveling to other churches and parishes strictly for meeting women (although many do and are very successful). This is why Christian dating sites do this for them… these sites match their personality perfectly to the most beautiful woman possible.

Let me tell you, the girls on christian dating sites are downright sexy. I feel like a bad Christian saying this, but the majority of girls you will find on these sites are the girls of your wildest fantasies: sexy, southern, “good” Christian girls who have been held back by their beliefs their whole life.

They make profiles on these sites because they believe that in order to be “good” in the eyes of God they must date other Christians. This results in a great advantage for men browsing christian dating sites.. all the girls are extremely sexy. I suggest you check out some of these fine physical specimens at this dating for christians site.

Meet the sexiest christian girls online at dating for christians… you will not be disappointed.

Halloween & Christianity – Other Halloween Options for Christian Homeschoolers

If you’ve decided to keep your homeschool family from participating in Halloween, there are many alternatives that your homeschoolers will love. Not only will they have a great time, they will have a chance to spread His love. Here are five ways to have a blast without compromising the security of your little ones.

1. Family Game Night

If your homeschoolers are staring out the window at trick-or-treaters with tears in their eyes, it’s time to take action. It’s important to focus on fun during Halloween so your homeschool children don’t resent being kept away from Halloween festivities. A family game night is a great way to have some safe uplifting fun. Candy prizes and autumn-themed snacks like candy apples will up the fun factor. Get together with other homeschooling families for some extra competition. Be sure to have one family member pass out candy. If you want, you can also pass out tracts or Bible verses with inspirational messages. It’s wrong to shut yourselves in from people knocking on your door. This will just tell your neighbors that you are strange and unfriendly. If you pass out candy with a “God bless you” or “Jesus loves you,” they will think you are strange and friendly!

2. Attend a Fall Festival

Our church holds an annual fall fest on October 31st. This provides a safe environment for our homeschoolers to go wild. There is a leaf pile with hidden candy treats, a corn maze, and games and activities of all kinds. There are candy prizes galore as well as grand prizes like bicycles, basketballs and Bibles. Jousting, pillow fights, and dunk tanks are just some of the fun carnival-themed games to enjoy. I’ve heard more than once from my homeschoolers that the Fall Festival just has to be more fun than trick-or-treating. If your church doesn’t have a Halloween alternative, think about how you could start one. Get together with other homeschool parents to brainstorm.

3. Have a Bowling Tournament

Bowling tournaments (and goofy golf or laser tag for that matter) are a great way to have fun with the homeschoolers. Bowling alleys are understandably vacant on October 31st. This is a great opportunity for a family-friendly bowling competition. Ambitious homeschooling families will get together with other Christian families for some friendly competition. You can even make up team names complete with family colors or uniforms! Creativity is key!

4. Costume Party

One thing about Halloween that I always enjoyed was dressing up in outlandish costumes. There’s no reason to rob your children of this fun practice with a costume party. As long as the costumes don’t tend towards the macabre side, a costume party can be a great outreach event for a church. One homeschool friend of mine threw a Noah’s Ark theme party. Each child dressed up as a different animal. They put on a short impromptu play based on the story of Noah’s Ark.

5. Have a Pumpkin-Carving Party

Some people think that jack-o-lanterns represent undead souls. I don’t think they have to if you just want to have some creative fun. You can take your kids to a pumpkin patch and then spend the night carving silly faces, animals, or designs into pumpkins. Small pumpkins and gourds will add a nice autumnal feel to any homeschool. A friend of mine carves inspirational Bible verses and messages like “Jesus is Lord” into a series of pumpkins for her front lawn. Be creative! Don’t throw away those mushy pumpkin seeds. Add some salt and throw them in the oven for a fun fall snack.

It Cant be done, if not as One ( 2nd letter to all Religions, and it’s leaders)

It Can’t be done, If not as One

(A Letter to the Worlds Religious and Political Leaders)

 

And Moses said unto God, Behold, when I come unto the children of Israel, and shall say unto them, The God of your fathers hath sent me unto you; and they shall say to me, What is his name? what shall I say unto them? And God said unto Moses, I AM THAT I AM: and he said, Thus shalt thou say unto the children of Israel, I AM hath sent me unto you. And God said moreover unto Moses, Thus shalt thou say unto the children of Israel, The LORD God of your fathers, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob, hath sent me unto you: this is my name for ever, and this is my memorial unto all generations. 

 

Folks, I wanted you to read all of that for a reason, I wanted to point to a fact that (1) God first said “I AM THAT I AM” (2) He told Moses to say that to all the children of Israel, (3) and then He (Who?) I AM, said moreover, (meaning an addition to what has been said: besides) (4) Tell the children of Israel, The Lord God of your fathers, the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. (5) and this is my memorial ( meaning serving to help people remember, anything meant to help people remember a person or event). So in  essence God said my name is I AM. Question, I am what? Answer, Well your fathers call me God, so that is my name to you GOD. So in other words God said, hey your fathers and your fathers, father calls me God, so hey to avoid confusion why don’t you call me God too.

In other places, other cultures some call Him, Allah, Buddha, and the list of names goes on and on. Bottom line is folks, He said, His name was I Am, it was only then when talking to Moses that God as a second thought, to simplify things told Moses, just call me what your fathers and forefathers has called me, GOD.

Now we all call upon God by a different name, all worship Him in a different way, But He is God nevertheless. Our problem , as diverse as our world religions are, is that we all done the same thing, we all broke one of the first commandments that God Had given to us, We all have taken our eyes off of Him, and I believe I can prove it.

Folks it’s really very simple, If, we are pointing fingers, If we are always running at the gums about our pet peeves, How in the world are we then Looking at and hearing God?

We religiously try to annihilate one another over our petty differences, Why? We took our eyes off of God. We will hate, kill, and destroy one another because we may call God by a different name, or worship in a different manner than you or I.

I hate to say it but we, every one of our world religions has done this very thing, When, we placed our eyes upon what others are doing around us, we took our eyes off of God. We can’t do both, we can’t listen to or pay attention to God if our mind and thoughts are looking and listening elsewhere. Our problem is that we try to dictate to other how to view, talk to and listen to God, and if it’s not done to OUR liking we will alienate, hate, maim, and even kill, just because this group or that group doesn’t do things the way you do.

God said in Exodus, said, that His name is I Am, basically I am what YOU call me, that is WHO I AM.

Buddha, Allah, Jehovah, Yahweh,, all cultures call God by a different name, worship Him in a different way. Truthfully, that’s between them and God, not between us, them, and God. Who are we to force our way between them and God, just because we don’t like the way they worship or by what name they call God by? But it does prove my point, if we are so busy bashing others, then we are not listening or looking at God, we are looking at and listening to everything else other than God, and look at what strife that has caused us all throughout history.

In truth, we can’t keep all of our focus on our creator if we are busy rubbernecking at what others are doing around us Religiously, Politically, and Personally.

According to the Christian Bible, (for those in a religious frame of mind) In Genesis, it states. And the whole earth was of one language, and of one speech.  And it came to pass, as they journeyed from the east, that they found a plain in the land of Shinar; and they dwelt there And they said one to another, Go to, let us make brick, and burn them throughly. And they had brick for stone, and slime had they for morter And they said, Go to, let us build us a city and a tower, whose top may reach unto heaven; and let us make us a name, lest we be scattered abroad upon the face of the whole earth.  And the LORD came down to see the city and the tower, which the children of men builded.  And the LORD said, Behold, the people is one, and they have all one language; and this they begin to do: and now nothing will be restrained from them, which they have imagined to do. Go to, let us go down, and there confound their language, that they may not understand one another’s speech. So the LORD scattered them abroad from thence upon the face of all the earth: and they left off to build the city. Therefore is the name of it called Babel; because the LORD did there confound the language of all the earth: and from thence did the LORD scatter them abroad upon the face of all the earth (Genesis 11:1-9) (Emphasis mine).  In other words to the scientific evolutionary crowd, they migrated.

Why did they want to build a city and a tower? It wasn’t for God that’s for sure, it was for them, and why was that? To make a name for themselves? Thus they took their eyes off of God and placed it upon themselves, again why? Pride perhaps?

Also note that at one time ALL spoke a single language, thus We All called God by the same name. God, changes the language, and now the name of God sounds different in that language.      It’s the same God folks, just a different translation of that name. Yet we Religiously ( and I really don’t care of what religion one wishes to follow) we try to annihilate one another both mentally and physically for that very reason,

As a Christian myself, (Not a very good one really if you know me), I believe that there will be a new heaven and a new earth as mentioned in Revelations 21:1 My question to our world religious and political leaders worldwide is this, if we can’t get along now in this world as we know it, what makes you think EITHER GOD OR NATURE for that matter, will want all this havoc that we created between us in the next? Whether place there by God or as survivors of the many catastrophes that we see heading our way.

We as a Human Race, must do really only one thing, Religiously put our eyes back on God and prepare ourselves ,forget this devilish foolishness of hating one another due to our religion, how we worship, or by what name we may call God.

As for other schools of thought on this matter politically, and scientifically prepare ourselves to survive the onslaught of disasters we will face as our dear earth goes through it metamorphose, reshaping itself as it occasionally does.

Because truthfully it can’t be done, if we don’t do it as one.

 

 

 

Many see me as a long haired,tug boat footed, big eared throwback to when Noahs Ark was just a canoe. But am I? Others see me, as just a crazy old man spouting off about things in the Gods Word, that if we look at the world around us, we can see the path that many religions do not want to tread down, there are many similarities between what God has in store for us if things don’t change and what our world scientist claim will happen if things don’t change. What can we do to change the world? Well the answer to that is really simple. We change us.

Alternative Greek Travel Destinations

Greece can satisfy even the most demanding of its visitors. It has beautiful scenery and great man made establishments, it has sea but also mountains, it has archaeological sites and night clubs as well, it has crowded areas but it also has nice and quite places. The best of all is that all these are not far away from each other. I don’t think its an overstatement to say that Greece is a traveler’s paradise.


Where can you find such places.


If you want to find fancy restaurants and Hotels and all the comforts a man can get those are the services every known place has and they are actually difficult to miss. Mykonos, Santorini, Rhodes, Corfu, Crete, Athens, Thessaloniki, Samos are among the most visited destinations in Greece. If you need luxurious accommodations, fancy restaurants, loud music, packed cafes, lots of visitors you can find them here.


Places that are not crowded but still have lot to offer are more difficult to find. There are less services and less money to be gained from visitors and therefore are not heavily promoted. If you are looking for those places don’t ask at your local travel agent. Don’t arrange a Cruise hoping to find them. The are usually very close to the crowded centers but not much is mentioned of them.


Lots of smaller islands that are not heavily advertised, and island satellites to famous ones usually fall under this category and would be ideal places for people that want to explore the alternative Greece. For the sake of the discussion I am going to mention Gaudos, Paxoi, Fournoi, Sifnos, Ikaria, Chios but this is not extensive by any means. These places are usually recommended from people that have already gone there. If you have not had such recommendations then I would advise you to prepare your trip to the most favorable location leaving some room in your schedule for visiting places that the locals will undoubtedly suggest. An inquiry to a local Greek travel agent or a Greek Habitant might reveal some hidden treasures around the area. Keeping in mind the pros and cons presented right after, one can easily recognize such places.


With quiet destinations you avoid the mass tourism and the noise and you enjoy more the nature and the hospitality of people simple and not caught up at the great rush of our times. Nature is purer and the food is fresher and atmosphere is unspoiled and healthier. The prices are cheaper too. One great disadvantage is that such places don’t have many means of transportation to and from them and not to many comforts should be expected when looking for accommodation. Some of them don’t even have air connectivity with mainland Greece. They might have boat or bus connection 3-7 times a week from the near by Town.


Travel off high season


Greeks usually take their summer vacation around the 15th of August that is the biggest festivity in the Orthodox Christian world, commemorating the Assumption of Theotokos (Mary the mother of Jesus). Around these days everything gets very busy with boats running full and extra flights being added and all types of accommodation running at full capacity. These period makes for some very tiresome vacation and I would definitely avoid it if I had the choice. Planning either before or after August is probably the smartest thing one can do when traveling to Greece. You do avoid the headaches and prices are a whole lot different.


Almost all destinations in Greece are connected through Athens, so this gives an opportunity to the traveler to explore the Athenian lifestyle and Acropolis if he/she so chooses. Some alternative routes include Italy which has daily direct boat connections to the Ionian islands and Turkey which has daily boat connectivity to the nearby islands of the Aegean.


Arranging your car rental before hand


Small places usually luck the public transportation of the big and famous cities. Buses usually run not very frequently and planning your excursions around them usually is not an easy chore. The more crowded places will probably have cars booked fully for the high season times. So if you are planning on using a car arranging it ahead of time is always good choice.


Alternative accommodations for rent


If you are not interested in the standard services of a hotel (food, everyday cleaning/towels/sheets pools and restaurants) you can rent villas or homes at cheaper prices. Usually the such places provide a high level of service compared to what you pay for them. Plenty of non Hotel accommodations are spread at all possible places and the go by the names of
