Once Saved, Always Saved? Does God Have a Mothering Nature?
I used to think that once saved, I would always be saved. This in part because of the scripture in Romans 8:38 Where Paul makes the statement:
("For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor...

Christian Personals
Written by: Katerina Molley
There are many more resources for finding the right mate today than there were as little as 20 years ago. One of the methods that enjoys a great deal of popularity among singles is the personals - both in newspapers and online. While meeting and establishing a relationship with someone through an advertisement has definite drawbacks, stories are often told of such associations leading to a happily married life. One of the first things to consider, once you've made the decision to utilize the personal ads in order to find that special someone, is the construction of a good ad that will attract the person who's most likely to be the best match. From a Christian perspective, this offers greater challenges, since the code of living that the Church dictates isn't often popular within a less spiritual society such as ours.
Before beginning the writing process, it's necessary to identify the particular qualities that you're hoping for in a mate. If you can't pinpoint specifics, take a look at the friends that you've chosen to surround yourself with, and you'll get a better idea of what types of things to look for in a mate when you realize which qualities have appealed to you through friendships. It's important to keep the Christian perspective in focus here - even more so when choosing a potential life partner.
When writing your ad, be sure to list the qualities that you have to offer to a relationship; mention hobbies and activities that you find enjoyable, be completely honest about who you are and what you're looking for in a partner (do not compromise your Christian morals or principles, even if they're not so popular in today's world) and - above and beyond all else - make it understood that you're a Christian looking for a Christian mate. This statement, alone, implies that you're abiding by the Church's expectations and that - as a good Christian - you fully intend to live by them. You don't have to appear rigid; just make yourself clear in a friendly, lighthearted way, and you'll be attracting other Christians in no time.
