THE DEVIL IS A LIAR!!!!!!! [/b][/i] LOLOLOL!!![/b][/i] Now look here. As I've recently told y'all, I am a menopausal woman of GOD who is about a breath away from turning 50. (And let me tell you that when GOD brings you to it, the "latter" really is "greater than the former". So the best is yet to come for all of us! ) But, unless GOD has other plans, if HE blesses us with long life, a whole lot of that "latter" won't include conceiving or birthing no babies...at least not in the natural . Yet, I am engaged. And, speaking of supernatural "birthings"... I THANK GOD that this time (and for the first time ), I will neither need to "birth out a man" , nor "raise", nor "train" one up. Because when GOD, who is my first LOVE, found, wooed and married me, HE made me HIS wife[/b]. As a happily "married (single) woman", married to the PERFECT HUSBAND, I had no more need to be trying to "find" any other. The "exhale", that I'd been holding so long while "waiting to" that I almost fainted, was...and is, exquisite, because GOD became my "INHALE" ... the very AIR I breathe. And, when GOD chose to make, and finished forming me into a suitable helpmeet[/i], I was found[/b] by a "he who finds"[/b] that was first, found worthyby MY FATHER,...MY ALWAYS and ETERNAL HUSBAND. So when my man showed up, he was already "formed and made in the image of GOD". HALLELUJAH!!![/b][/i] Now we're planning marriage. ;D (So Organist?... Go on and hit my key!.....lol!!!)............. I am enVISIONing...(HUH!)...and PLAINly making it known,....(HUH!)...
I have FAITHfully waited,...(HUH!)...And I said FAITHfully,...(HUH!)...
which doesn't mean "perfectly",... (HUH!)...because WAIIIIIIIIIIIIIIITING,....(HUH!)...
will sorely and surely try,...(HUH!)...even the very best of the saints,...(HUH!)...
But NOW,...(HUH!)... I stand to declare,...(HUH!)...my EV-ER-Y INTENTion of having ,...(HUH!)...a HOLY GHOST-filled,...(HUH!)... FIRE BAPTIZED,...(HUH!)... barn-burner of a wedding night,...(HUH!)...a most passionate hon-ey-moooooon,...(HUH!)...and a hot and healing marriage bed,...(HUH!)... for however long,...(HUH!)...GOD gives us LIFE,...(HUH!)...and keeps us able.[/b][/i] I just stopped by to tell you,...(HUH!)... that I will not be denied,...(HUH!)...not by anyone or anything but GOD!!!...(HUH!)...
And so my brothers and sisters,...(HUH!)...just one more thing,...(HUH!)...and I'm going to my seat,...(HUH!)...[/b][/i] DONT Y'ALL MAKE ME HURT NOBODY UP IN HERE!!![/b][/i] ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D (Keita comes, calms, and sits down,...opens her Bible, her eyes and her ears, to thoroughly search GOD's Mind and Heart regarding the marriage bed. Because she's found out that no matter how, however much or even why she may want what she wants the way she wants it ...GOD'S WAY is always not only better, but the very best, and ALL that matters. And also because she's discovered that when pursuing HIS TRUTH in a matter, scripture interprets itself, by HIS SPIRIT, and GOD speaks. But mostly because she's learned that GOD is always in even the smallest "details" of any plan HE gives. And, as it says in the Book of Proverbs, "It's the little foxes that spoil the vine." ) [/quote] Goooooo ahead and Preach Momma!!!

It's pretty hot in here.. ;D And I'm just wanting to be as sure as I can, at least for me and mine, that none of that "heat" is or becomes, actually, accidentally or even ignorantly, "strange fire". So I'm still studying, praying, and listening on the matter. What a lovely offer! Thank you so much! But do I have to choose John Legend OR Musiq Soulchild? I'd probably choose JL if I had to, but I really like some of the music from BOTH those brothers. And I think this [/size] is just BEAUTIFUL!
Hey! Maybe you need to start compiling some "Midnight Love for Christians"-type cds....
Because who knows?
Thomas Weeks might even promote and sell some for you at his next (solo) "TEACH ME HOW TO LOVE YOU" event!
That is, once somebody washes his dirty mouth out with a bar of that "prophetic soap", LOLOL!

Speaking of Mood Setting Music For Grown Married Christians..... So I cant listen to Marvin Gaye singing.."Lets get it on" when me and the wifey comes together for "worship"? LOL... Im sorry I just cant see myself coming together with the wifey..on "we come this far by faith"... LOL. LOLOLOL!!! ;D Well, elderbeck I think that could depend on how you read or say the words,...."We've Come This Far By Faith", , lol! But Marvin Gaye??? "Let's Get It On" AWWWWWWW, SOOKIE SOOKIE NOW!!! Actually, "Marvin Gaye and 'em" from "back in the (and my younger) day" is a lot of the reason that I like today's "neo-soul" artists and their music so much. To me, that "soul" vibe is ageless and timeless, with a special way of speaking to and taking us there, because it's so much about LOVE, LOVING and LONGING. Interestingly, Marvin Gaye's ( seriously disturbed) daddy was a Pentecostal preacher who physically and emotionally abused him, and an uncle sodomized him as a child. I've often wondered what and how much of all that is in his music, because a lot of it seems to be about (re)connecting love and sex with GOD. "As the son of a preacher ... he was deeply imbued with the love ethic. ... Love God and love your neighbors," says Rev. Michael Dyson, himself an ordained clergyman as well as a professor at the University of Pennsylvania. The socially conscious album "What's Going On," Dyson observes, "was as complete a sermon as you hear in church."AMEN. Now, Marvin Gaye's "Let's Get It On" (both the single and the album) played a big part in "lighting my earliest fires". So, I just might have some of those "soul ties" to it, that sis AT is (and imho, right to be) concerned about. But to me, this song Let's Get It On
I've been really tryin', baby Tryin' to hold back this feelin' for so long And if you feel like I feel, baby Then come on, oh, come on Whoo, let's get it on Ah, babe, let's get it on Let's love, baby Let's get it on, sugar Let's get it on Whoo-ooh-ooh
We're all sensitive people With so much to give Understand me, sugar Since we got to be Let's live I love you
There's nothin' wrong With me lovin' you Baby, no, no And givin' yourself to me can never be wrong If the love is true Oh, babe, ooh, ooh
Don't you know How sweet and wonderful life can be? Whoo-ooh I'm askin' you, baby To get it on with me Ooh, ooh, ooh
I ain't gonna worry, I ain't gonna push Won't push you, baby So come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, baby Stop beatin' 'round the bush, hey
Let's get it on, ooh, ooh Let's get it on You know what I'm talkin' 'bout Come on, baby, hey, hey Let your love come out If you believe in love Let's get it on, ooh, ooh Let's get it on, baby This minute, oh yeah Let's get it on Please, please, get it on Hey, hey
I know you know What I've been dreamin' of Don't you, baby? My whole body is in love Whoo
I ain't gonna worry, no, I ain't gonna push I won't push you, baby, whoo Come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, darlin' Stop beatin' 'round the bush, hey
Gonna get it on Beggin' you, baby, I want to get it on You don't have to worry that it's wrong If the spirit moves you, let me groove you good Let your love come down Oh, get it on, come on, baby
Do you know I mean it? I've been sanctified Hey, hey Girl, you give me good feelings, so good
Nothin' wrong with love If you want to love me Just let yourself go Oh, baby Let's get it onsounds a lot like the Bible's "Song of Solomon"......with soul. And it can ( still) cue up a "mood" with its first four notes, lol!

Keita .... I will be hitting 50 in May... I didn't know you my age. I tried to read Marvin Gaye,s song Let get it go.... It bring back old memories with old boy friends of the past ... Marvin Gaye was a man of a painful past... pastor kids had pretend that nothing was wrong and put on a fake smile... The song have a lot of spirits attached to it. One is not Love, but Lust, he was addicted to sex. Sex is one of the thing he used to keep his mind from the painful past. When he song this sing, he wasn't think about a wife.... but a woman he laying with. Fornication... I am so old fashion, Whatever spirit that he was operating in while writing and song that song, is the same spirits that are attacked to it. J.D. Jakes have a good CD... I forgot the name of it, because you know how church people is... They beg to listen to your CD, than forget to return it. It is real good for married couple and no evil spirits attached to it, and it is anointed for worship and loving making.

You can listen to Marvin Gaye in the bedroom, but it can only be the song "Sanctified Lady." ;D
For some reason, I remember that one from my childhood and thought it was so funny that a secular artist made a song with that title.

Excerpts from an article by: Maurice Lamm
"Today there is no talk of standards, God's or society's. It seems sex is all right in every form—so long as it is not repressed, Freud forbid. We are faced with this question: What shall sex be used for now that it is no longer tied to that sacred, cosmically significant function of perpetuating the family, the faith, and the human race? Society's answer appears to be very simple: fun—and fun has no rules. ................
This exception of the human being from the rule of instinct in the natural realm teaches us that we must exercise our essential humanity in the area of sexual relations as in all other critical areas of life. We must reasonably and intelligently choose a life partner, make proper human covenants, order our lives and our priorities, control our urges, and submit to a higher discipline: a law, the law we were given by God. This is a law that we need in order to protect our love, both from other humans who act like animals, and from the internal animal that we sometimes allow to crouch at the door of our souls.
Sex is not sin, and it does not need to be spiritualized. It must, however, be humanized, by affirming the reality of its power and attractiveness, rejoicing in its presence, using it as a blessing for the benefit and development of human-kind, and abstaining from it when its Creator forbids it. A corollary of the two statements—that we are neither animals nor angels—may be that we have aspects of both. In this case, our humanity would consist of proper resolution of the tensions and contradictory demands made upon us by our dual nature.
Sexuality Cannot Be Separated from Character.
If we agree that the sexual force is neutral and that its good or evil qualities depend on how we use it, we can begin to appreciate that our sexuality can never be separated from our total personality. Thus the way we handle our own sexuality is not primarily a matter of facts, but of values. Indeed, sex can be a revealing indication of character—is our partner a giver or taker, sensitive or gross, caring or selfish, religious or irreligious?
If sex were merely a matter of physiological function, it could be treated like a mechanical problem—get the best engine, use the best technique, and achieve the best result. If it doesn't work, trade it in. If this were the case, then sexual partners would be interchangeable, and society would function as a warehouse for suitable parts. This mechanical concept is analogous to prostitution, which is concerned solely with the biological function. It follows, therefore, that the more one's life is motivated by isolated instinct, the more one tends to polygamy and the less one seeks a single person with whom to share everlasting love.
Perhaps our greatest fear is that our lives will be meaningless. If sex, the most powerful and sensitive area of our lives is to have meaning, it must be used as an expression of love or affection for another person. If we depersonalize the act by relating to another person only on a biological level, we dehumanize our partner and rob ourselves of our own integrity. To be successful, the act of sex requires the sensitive involvement of both partners. Noninvolvement results in a mechanical orgasm that is ultimately meaningless and demeaning.
If simply sleeping together would produce happiness, then the prostitute would be the happiest person in society. According to Helmut Thielicke, what is an ethical deficiency for the person who seeks the prostitute—the need for the physiological function rather than the person—is for the prostitute a positive element of moral self-defense. She saves her sense of self-worth by with-holding her "self" during sex.
It is this distinction that determines whether the act is merely another sensation, or a true step toward relationship. It is becoming characteristic of our society that old as well as young people seek experiences rather than relationships, episodes rather than the continuous growth toward greater love. There can be no true oneness of the flesh without first experiencing a cleaving together of the heart."
The sexual union of two people on a primitive, impersonal, casual, biological level is a gross misfortune. If it is by mutual consent, it is simply mutual exploitation. It has met the test of liberty in that it is not coerced, but it has failed the test of meaning, sensitivity, decency, and responsibility to the future. The sexual act is the first and most significant event of married life, and its force and beauty should not be compromised by sharing coitus in the expectation that some day a decision will be made to marry or not to marry. The act of sex is not only a declaration of present love, it is a covenantal statement of permanent commitment. It is only in this frame of reference that sexual congress is legitimate, because only then is it a religious act, a de'var mitzvah.
Love by itself is not a sufficient motivation for sexual expression; love that is authentic will want to reserve the ultimate act for the ultimate commitment. The test of a good marriage is not compatibility in bed, but compatibility in life. Given love and respect, sexual technique can be learned. Engaging in sex to "test it out" de-sanctifies the act. It is not a rehearsal for marriage, it is a rehearsal for divorce.
The Torah speaks of the sexual act as carnal knowledge, as in (Genesis 4:1) "Adam knew his wife Eve" (Gen. 4:1). Ye'diah is the most sublime human knowledge because it knows the mystery, the soul of the beloved. In the sexual act, knowledge comes not only from physical intimacy and harmony and oneness, but also from experiencing the very depths of passion and extremes of emotion emanating from the loved one. It is knowledge from the inside. All such knowledge has two aspects: We learn about the other person, and we also experience ourselves at the extreme of our potential. Perhaps that is why taboos surround both love and death. A taboo is designed to protect us where we are most vulnerable and most mysterious—as we generate life in the privacy of our room, and as we take leave of life.
The increasing freedom from sexual restraint in this post-Freudian era is testimony to the demystification of sex and the irretrievable loss of precious "knowledge." We can conjecture further that perhaps the use of the term yada (revealing knowledge) for the sex act is contingent upon the prior existence of hiddenness, mystery. This he-alem, (concealment) exists both on the biological level—the internality of the female genitalia—and the societal—the idea of modesty, tze'niut, and its use of clothing to cover the body. As society sheds its clothing, there is progressively less to "know" by means of sexual exploitation. If the object of carnal knowledge is to know our self as well as our mate, then the demystification of sex adversely affects our self-knowledge as well.
Sexuality Needs to Be Sanctified.
If sexuality is that deepest personal statement, filled with ecstasy and informed by knowledge, it follows that even within marriage sex is not considered simply a legitimated biological function.
Kiddushin—which signifies sanctity and betrothal—leads inevitably to nissuin—nuptials, elevation. Thus sanctification raises the physiological act of sex onto a higher, more spiritual level.
Sanctity also implies mystery. The Holy of Holies of the Temple, its inner sanctum, was visited only once every year, and then only by the High Priest. In the imagination of the people, it was a subject of awe and mystery.
Our society has lost the sense of the sacred, and there is little mystery attached to sex. Its physiology and technique have become commonplace to children, and teenagers are already tired and bored veterans.
There are two terms for the sexual act. The better known is that which is used in the Bible and Talmud, bi'ah, which means "a coming" as in "he came unto her."
The second is chibbur, which means "joining." It is used in Iggeret ha-Kodesh, which is subtitled Sefer Chibbur Adam ve Ishto, "The Book of Joining of Man and His Wife." The word and concept are based on the mystical vision of the cherubim facing and embracing one another in spiritual mutuality. It also connotes the ideal of ye'diah, "knowledge from the inside." The Kabbalah considers knowledge and joining synonymous—true "knowledge" derives only from an interpenetrating and joining of the two bodies, the knower and the to-be-known.
The contemporary writer I. Lewald says:
"In the consciousness of belonging together, in the sense of constancy, resides the sanctity, the beauty of matrimony, which helps us to endure pain more easily, to enjoy happiness doubly, and to give rise to the fullest and finest development of our nature."

Anavah's Answer: Whish acts are permissable within the confines of Marriage... Christian Sexuality Blog: christiansexuality.wordpress.com/2007/10/04/anavahs-answer-which-acts-are-permissable-within-the-confines-of-marriage/I copied and paste one of the comment I thought was intersting and the best.... some might be offended, you may not want to read it.... I believe we all over the age of 21... First read Anavah view than come back and Scroll down Because that which may be known of God is manifest in them; [6] for God hath shewed it unto them. 20 For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so [7] that they are without excuse: 21 Because that, when they knew God, they glorified him not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened. 22 Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools, 23 And changed the glory of the incorruptible God into an image made like to corruptible man, and to birds, and four footed beasts, and creeping things. 24 Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonor their own bodies between themselves: 25 Who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshiped and served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen. 26 For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature: 27 And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompence of their error which was meet. 28 And even as they did not like to retain [8] God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient; [Romans 1:19-28] Our friend Webster defines “pervert” as 1. to cause to turn aside or away from what is good or true… 2. to twist the meaning or sense of: misinterpret (Webster’s New Collegiate Dictionary, 1977, p.856). perverse adj 1 a : turned away from what is right or good : CORRUPT b : INCORRECT, IMPROPER c : contrary to the evidence or the direction of the judge on a point of law 2 a : obstinate in opposing what is right, reasonable, or accepted : WRONGHEADED b: arising from or indicative of stubbornness or obstinacy 3 : marked by peevishness or petulance : CRANKY Perversion n 1 : the action of perverting : the condition of being perverted 2: a perverted form; esp. : an aberrant sexual practice esp. when habitual and preferred to normal coitus Aberrant n 1 : an aberrant natural group, individual, or structure 2 : a person whose behavior departs substantially from the standard Oral Sex is perversion. Oral Sex is an attempt to “change the natural use into that which is against nature” (unnatural - against the standard) like homosexuality, masterbation and all other perversions. God has clearly revealed His will through nature and through “revelation” (God has spoken through prophecy to His church) about this issue many, many times. Only those who have hardened their hearts through continual practice of this perverted act (and refuse to let go and repent of the sin they cherish) willfully choose not to hear His voice. Oral Sex is against nature and was inspired by demons and not the Spirit of Truth, Holiness, and Purity. Oral Sex did not proceed from the Father’s Heart concerning His perfect will for true and holy sexual expression between a husband and his wife. Oral Sex is against nature because the mouth was never intended to be a substitute for the vagina. The vagina is naturally designed by God to receive the penis and the man’s “seed” (semen). The mouth, anus, ears, and nose were never designed by God to be used as a substitute for normal coitus. Just because something can be penetrated by the penis doesn’t mean it should. If oral sex is permissible then so is anal sex. Both are unnatural and unclean. How can it be clean for man’s penis that is covered with urine and semen to be in a woman’s mouth? How can it be clean to place a penis in an orifice that is designed for feces (in anal sex)? How can it be clean for a woman’s mouth to receive a man’s semen (and sometimes swallowed and digested)? How can it be clean for a man to place his tongue on a place where urine and blood flow (in cunnlingus)? Our bodies are the temple of the Holy Spirit and we should never defile them with vile affections. “I find this position degrading and unclean [doggystyle] and can tell you that 99% of my sexual encounters before marriage occurred in this position… do you think it is just a “coincidence” that every sinful man that I had sex with immediately chose and desired this position over all others? Hmmm….I don’t think so!” Do you think it is a “coincidence” that oral sex and anal sex are featured prominently and promoted in pornography where the spirit of perversion, lust, and debasement is rampant? In pornography oral sex is actually preferred over normal intercourse and is often portrayed as an essential part of the “lovemaking” experience. I like many others only learned of oral sex through pornography. We are the church and are not supposed to be imitating the world. “Oh taste and see that the Lord is good” comes to mind when I think about oral sex as an act of pure worship. I really can’t think of any act that is more intimate than to use one’s very own mouth to explore and pleasure their spouse’s body. How very sad!!!!! I respect your ministry but it seems that you are not 100% free of the sexual perversions of your past. I hope you will prayerfully consider the words that are written here and seek God for His perfect will regarding your marital sex life. You are a woman of fasting and prayer and I know that if you humble yourself with a teachable spirit He will definitely reveal even this to you.
