| We believe in one true God; the Father, Son and Holy Spirit - infinite, eternal and co-existent in majesty, power, glory, and holiness, worthy of all honor, praise and worship as Creator and sustainer of all things in the Universe both visible and invisible. (Genesis 1:1, Colossians 1:16 ; Philippians 2:10-11) |
| We believe in the Son of God, Jesus Christ, and His redemptive work on the cross. He being the only source of salvation through belief in His finished work of death on the cross and resurrection from the grave. His offer of salvation as a free gift extends to all who call upon Him by faith. (Romans 3:10,23; Romans 5:8, Romans 10:9-13 , John 3:16-18) |
| We believe in the literal return of Jesus Christ to first claim His own who belong to Him, and secondly to judge those who have actively and/or passively rejected ( John 14:1-6, 1 Thessalonians 4:14-18, 2 Thessalonians 2 ) |
| We believe that: “ love is patient, it is kind, it does not envy, it is not boast, it does not proud, it is not rude, it is not self seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no records of wrongs, it always protects, always trusts, always hopes and always preserves”. “The greatest between faith, hope and love is love”. (I Corinthians 13:4,5,7 & 13) |
| We believe in prayers: “Turn to me and be gracious to me, for I am lonely and afflicted. The troubles of my heart have multiplied, free me from my anguish. Look upon my affliction and my distress and take away all my sins, because my hope is in you”. (Psalm 25:16-21) “May the lord answer you when you are in distress; may the name of the God of Jacob protect you”. “May he send you help from the sanctuary. May he give you the desire of your heart” and make “ all your plans, succeed” and may the lord” grant all your requests” (Psalm 25: 16-21; 20:1,2,4,5) |
| We have selected certain versus from The New Testament which maybe relevant to the particular site(s) as these statements portrays our beliefs: |
| Getting married? Already married and looking to get divorced? Need support groups in your area? “ChristianWeddings.net” And “ChristianAdults.com” |
| We believe in “marriage” and “not divorce”. We also believe in no pre marital sex prior to marriage. “It is good for a man not to marry. But since there is so much immorality, each man should have his own wife, and each woman her own husband. The husband should fulfill his marital duty to his wife, and likewise the wife to her husband. The wife’s body does not belong to her alone but also to her husband. In the same way, the husband’s body does not belong to him alone but also to his wife. Do not deprive each other except by mutual consent and for a time, so that you may devote yourselves to prayer. Now to the unmarried and the widows I say; it is good for them to stay unmarried, as I am. But if they can not control themselves, they should marry, for it is better to marry than to burn with passion. To the married I give this command: A wife must not separate from her husband. But if she does, she must remain unmarried or else be reconciled to her husband. And a husband must not divorce his wife. Now about virgins: I have no command from the Lord, but I give a judgment as one who by the Lord’s mercy is trustworthy. Because of the present crisis, I think that it is good for you to remain as you are. Are you married? Do not seek a divorce. Are you unmarried? Do not look for a wife. But if you do marry, you have not sinned; and if a virgin marries, she has not sinned. But those who marry will face many troubles in this life, and I want to spare you this. An unmarried man is concerned about the Lord’s affairs-how he can please the Lord. But a married man is concerned about the affairs of this World-how he can please his wife-and his interests are divided. An unmarried woman or virgin is concerned about the Lord’s affairs: Her aim is to be devoted to the Lord in both body and spirit. But a married woman is concerned about the affairs of this World-how she can please her husband. I am saying this for your own good, not to restrict you, but that you may live in a right way in undivided devotion to the Lord. If anyone thinks he is acting improperly toward the virgin he is engaged to, and if she is getting along in years and he feels he ought to marry, he should do as he wants. He is not sinning. They should get married. But the man who has settled the matter in his own mind, who is under no compulsion but has control over his own will, and who has made up his mind not to marry the virgin-this man also does the right thing. So then, he who marries the virgin does right, but he who does not marry her does even better.” (1 Corinthians 7)
“Is it lawful for a man to divorce his wife? At the beginning of creation, God made them male and female. For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and the two will become one flesh. So they are no longer two, but one. Therefore what God has joined together, let man not separate. Anyone who divorces his wife and marries another woman commits adultery against her. And if she divorces her husband and marries another man, she commits adultery. (Mark 10) |
| Single? Lonely? Romance? Sex? Love? And Dating? “ChristianSingles.com” |
| We believe in dating only for a purpose of a possible marriage and DO NOT believe in sexual immorality: “Flee from sexual immorality. All other sins a man commits are outside of his body, but he who sins sexually, sins against his own body. Do you not know that your body is a” Temple of the Holy Spirit”, who is in you, whom you have received from God? You are not your own. You were bought at a price, therefore honor God with your body”. (I Corinthians 6:18,29). Joining this site as a member for future casual dates is not permitted. We also believe in both “ being single or being married: “It is good for unmarried to stay unmarried, but if unmarried can not control themselves, they should marry, for it is better to marry than to “burn with passion”. Each man should have his own wife, and each woman her own husband. The wife’s body does not belong to her alone but also to her husband. In the same way, the husband’s body does not belong to him alone but also to his wife. Do not deprive each other except by mutual consent and for a time, so that you may devote yourselves to prayer.” (Corinthians 7) |
| Teenager? Alone? Making friends? Predestined ? Fruit of your family? “ChristianTeenagers.net” |
| We believe in teens making friends with other teens. And in the future, multiply through a Godly marriage. “I am the vine, you are the branches. If a man remains in me and I in him, he will bear much fruit; apart from me you can do nothing. If anyone does not remain in me, he is like a branch that is thrown away and withers, such branches are picked up, thrown into the fire and burned. If you remain in me and my words remain in you, ask whatever you wish, and it will be given you. This is to my father’s glory, that you bear much fruit, showing yourselves to be my disciples. You did not choose me, but I chose you and appointed you to go and bear fruit-fruit that will last. Then the father will give you whatever you ask in my name. This is my command; Love each other”. (John 15) |
| We believe in predestination. “In him we were also chosen, having been predestined according to the plan of him who works out everything in conformity with the purpose of his will, in order that we, who were the first to hope in Christ, might be for the praise of his glory. (Ephesians 1:11) |
| We believe in building our Teenager’s foundation according to our creator. “suppose one of you wants to build a tower. Will he not first sit down and estimate the cost to see if he has enough money to complete it? For if he lays the foundation and is not able to finish it, everyone who sees it will ridicule him, saying, this fellow began to build and was not able to finish” (Luke l4:28-30) |
| Senior Citizen? Lonely? Have Faith? Fear? Hope? Expectations? “ChristianSingleSeniors.com” |
| We believe in our Seniors to meet other singles, for friendships, companionships or marriages, whatever our Lord desires. “have faith but no deeds? Can such faith save you? Faith by itself, if it is not accompanied by action, is dead. You have faith; I have deeds. Show me your faith without deeds, and I will show you my faith by what I do. You believe that there is one God. Good! Even the demons believe that. As the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without deeds is dead”. (James 2: 14-26) |
| We believe the element of “fear” should never enter in the process of remarriage, making friends or companionship. “So do not be afraid of them. There is nothing concealed that will not be disclosed, or hidden that will not be made known. What I tell you in the dark, speak in the daylight; what is whispered in your ear, proclaim from the roofs. Do not be afraid of those who kill the body but can not kill the soul. Rather, be afraid of the one who can destroy both soul and body in hell.” (Matthew 10:26-28) |
| We believe that the spirit that lives in you makes your hope, every day. “In hope we were saved. But hope that is seen is no hope at all. Who hopes for what he already has? But if we hope for what we do not yet have, we wait for it patiently. Our spirit helps us in our weakness. We do not know what we ought to pray for, but the Spirit himself intercedes for us with groans that words can not express. And he who searches our hearts knows the mind of the Spirit, because the Spirit intercedes for the saints in accordance with God’s will.” (Romans 8:24-27) |
| We believe that you ought to rethink your expectations prior to entering the site. “Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. Whatever you have learned or received or heard from me, or seen me put it into practice. And the God of peace will be with you. Be content in whatever that the circumstances are. I know what it is to be in need, and I know what it is to have plenty. I Have learned the secret of being content in any and every situation, whether well fed or hungry, whether living in plenty or in want. I can do everything through him who gives me strength.” (Philippians 4: 6-13) |
| Looking for a job? Discouraged? Fear? Humility? “ChristianEmployments.com” |
| We believe that God is with you every step of the way. Although you may not agree, but the fact is that you will find that chosen job in God’s timing and not yours. “God’s divine power has given us everything we need for life, so that through them you may participate in the divine nature and escape the corruption in the world caused by evil desires. For this very reason, make every effort to add to your faith goodness; and to goodness, knowledge. And to knowledge, self-control; and to self-control, perseverance; and to perseverance, godliness; and to godliness, brotherly kindness; and to brotherly kindness, love. For if you possess these qualities in increasing measure, they will keep you from being ineffective and unproductive in your knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ, But if anyone does not have them, he is nearsighted and blind, and has forgotten that he has been cleansed from his past sins. For if you do these things, you will never fall”. (2 Peter: 3-l0) |
| We believe that whatever happens, fear shall not be in you. “ Whatever happens, conduct yourself in a manner worthy of the gospel of Christ. Then, whether I come to see you or only hear about you in my absence, I will know that you stand firm in one spirit, contending as one man for the faith of the gospel without being frightened in any way by those who oppose you. This is a sign to them that they will be destroyed, but that you will be saved-and that by God. For it has been granted to you on behalf of Christ not only to believe on him, but also to suffer for him, since you are going through the same struggle you saw I had, and now hear that I still have.” (Philippians 1:27-30). “Do nothing out of selfish ambition or vain conceit, but in humility consider others better than yourself. Each of you should look not only to your own interests, but also to the interests of others. Your attitude should be the same as that of Christ Jesus.” (Philippians 2:34)
“What, then, shall we say in response to this? If God is for us, who can be against us?” (Romans 9:31) |
| Want to promote or sell your business? Your goal? Your motives? Ask & seek? “ChristianRegistry.com” & “ChristianBusinessReg.com” |
| We believe in pressing on toward the Goal. “Forgetting what is behind and straining toward what is ahead, I press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called me-heavenward in Christ Jesus. All of us who are mature should take such a view of things. And if on some point you think differently, that too God will make clear to you. Only let us live up to what we have already attained.” (Philippians 3:13-16)
“You want something but don’t get it. You kill and covet, but you can not have what you want. You quarrel and fight. You do not have, because you do not ask God. When you ask, you do not receive, because you ask with wrong motives, that you may spend what you get on your pleasures. Don’t you know that friendship with the world is hatred toward God? Anyone who chooses to be a friend of the world becomes an enemy of God. Or do you think Scripture says without reason that the spirit he caused to live in us envies intensely?”(James 4: 2-5)
| Want to sell things online? To make money? “ChristianClassifiedOnline.com”; “ChristianCars.net”; “ChristianBoats.com” and “ChristianPlanes.com”
| We believe that there is a distinction in terms of what we perceive between “owning” and “leasing” things. As everything belongs to God, it was never ours to begin with and it will never be ours after we are gone. God can give and take it away, no questions asked. We came with nothing and think that we “own things, but in reality we are simply “leasing” those things until we are gone to heaven or hell. ”Keep your lives free from the love of money and be content with what you have, because God has said, Never will I leave you; never will I forsake you.” (Hebrews 13:5)
| Want to exchange anything? anywhere? “ExchangeEverything.org” & “ExchangeEverythingEverywhere.net (& .com)”
| We believe that exchanging what we lease on this planet from God, can be a very good alternative to cycle what we need. “Godliness with contentment is a great gain. For we brought nothing into the world, and we can take nothing out of it. But if we have food and clothing, we will be content with that.” (1 Timothy 6:6-8)
| Want a Christian attorney? Lawsuits? How can God help? “ChristianAttorneysOnline.com”
| We believe in preventing quarrels and resolving things. We certainly hope that Christian Attorneys in our site have the same beliefs as we do. “You, man of God, flee from all this, and pursue righteousness, godliness, faith, love, endurance and gentleness. Fight the good fight of the faith.” (1 Timothy 6:11-12) “If any of you has a dispute with another, dare he take it before the ungodly for judgment instead of before the saints? Do you not know that the saints will judge the world? And if you are to judge the world, are you not competent to judge trivial cases? Do you not know that we will judge angels? How much more the things of this life! Therefore, if you have disputes about such matters, appoint as judges even men of little account in the church! I say this to shame you. Is it possible that there is nobody among you wise enough to judge a dispute between believers? But instead, one brother goes to law against another-and this in front of unbelievers! The very fact that you have lawsuits among you means you have been completely defeated already. Why not rather be wronged? Why not rather be cheated? Instead, you yourselves cheat and do wrong, and you do this to your brothers.” (1 Corinthians 6:1-8) |
| “Settle matters quickly with your adversary who is taking you to court. Do it while you are still with him on the way, or he may hand you over to the judge, and the judge may hand you over to the office, and you may be thrown into prison. I tell you the truth, you will not get out until you have paid the last penny.” (Matthew 5:25-26) |
| “If your brother sins against you, go and show him his fault, just between the two of you. If he listens to you, you have won your brother over. But if he will not listen, take one or two others along, so that every matter may be established by the testimony of two or three witnesses. If he refuses to listen to them, tell it to them, tell it to the church; and if he refuses to listen even to the church, treat him as you would a pagan or a tax collector. Again, I tell you that if two of you on earth agree about anything you ask for, it will be done for you by my father in heaven. For where two or three come together in my name, there am I with them.” (Matthew18:15-20) |
| Looking for money? Wanting to lend money? Wanting to be a partner? An Investor? Wanting your asset(s) managed? Or simply selling your Real Estate? “FinanceAmerica.net”; “Christianlnvestors.com”; “ChristianPartners.com”; “Partners-lnvestors.com” ; “MoneyLending.net” ; “ChristianManagements.com” and “ChristianRealEstate.net” |
| We believe that love of money is a root of all kinds of evil. “People who want to get rich fall into temptation and a trap and into many foolish and harmful desires that plunge men into ruin and destruction. For the love of money is a root of all kinds of evil. Some people, eager for money, have wandered from the faith and pierced themselves with many griefs. He has an unhealthy interest in controversies and quarrels about words that result in envy, strife, malicious talk, evil suspicions and constant friction between men of corrupt mind, who have been robbed of the truth and who think that godliness is a means to financial gain.” (1 Timothy 6:4,5, 6,10) |
| Looking for a Christian University or Hospital? “ChristianUniversities.com” and “ChristianHospitals.com” |
| We believe in Christian fundamental teachings. When it comes to education and health, there are choices to be made by our members. “Do not be yoked together with unbelievers. For what do righteousness and wickedness have in common? Or what fellowship can light have with darkness? What harmony is there between Christ and Belial? What does a believer have in common with an unbeliever? What agreement is there between the temple of God and idols? For we are the temple of the living God. As God has said: “I will live with them and walk among them, and I will be their God, and they will be my people.” (2 Corinthians 6:14-16) |
| Care to see “Regular” or “Christian” Radio or Television programming? And media? Money, Power and Sex (Sins) ? And living in Sin? “ChristianRadios.com”; “ChristianTelevision.com” ; “ChristiansNews.com” ; “ChristianSports.net” |
| We believe that as “Sex”, “Power” and “Money”, dominates and boost the ratings our media today along with Television, Radio and now Internet programming, our subscribers can now tune into purer media and Christian programming. |
| “Shall we go on sinning so that grace may increase? By no means! We died to sin; how can we live in it any longer? Or don’t you know that all of us who were baptized into Christ Jesus were baptized into his death?. In the same way, count yourselves dead to sin but alive to God in Christ Jesus. Therefore do not let sin reign in your mortal body so that you obey its evil desires. Do not offer the parts of your body (including your eyes, watching sexual programming) to sin, as instruments of wickedness, but rather offer yourselves to God, as those who have been brought from death to life; and offer the parts of your body to him as instruments of righteousness, for sin shall not be your master, because you are not under law, but under grace.” (Romans 5:6:1-3,11-14) |
| Looking for Christian run hotels and Restaurants? Freedom to do what we want or what we do. “ChristianHotels.com” ; “Christian Restaurants.com” |
| We believe in using Christian run (managed and owned) hotels or restaurants. “Do not use your freedom to indulge the sinful nature, rather, serve one another in love. The entire law is summed up in a single command: “love your neighbor as yourself”. If you keep on biting and devouring each other, watch out or you will be destroyed by each other.” (Galatians 5:13-15) |
| Wanting to lose weight? Freedom to eat what we want. Wanting to fast? “Christianslosingweights.com” |
| We believe in selected eating. ““Everything is permissible”-but not everything is beneficial. “Everything is permissible”-but not everything is constructive. Nobody should seek his own good, but the good of others. Eat anything sold in the meat market without raising questions of conscience, for, “The earth is the Lord’s, and everything in it.” If some unbeliever invites you to a meal and you want to go, eat whatever is put before you without raising questions of conscience. So whatever you eat or drink or whatever you do, do it all for the glory of God.” (1 Corinthians 10:23-3 1) |
| “When you fast, do not look somber as the hypocrites do, for they disfigure their faces to show men they are fasting. When you fast, put oil on your head and wash your face, so that it will not be obvious to men that you are fasting, but only to your Father, who is unseen; and your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you.” (Matthew 6:16-18) |
| What does the word of God says about Anger, Arguing, Arrogance, Complaining, Fights, Boasting? Are you connected with your present Church? Are you? “Christian-Churches.com” |
| Anger? “Get rid of all bitterness, rage and anger, brawling and slander, along with every form of malice. Be kind and compassionate to one another, forgiving each other, just as in Christ God forgave you” (Ephesians 4: 31) |
| Arguing? Complaining? “Do everything without complaining or arguing, so that you may become blameless and pure, children of God without fault in a crooked and depraved generation, in which you shine like stars in the universe as you hold out the word of life-in order that I may boast on the day of Christ that I did not run or labor for nothing.” (Philippians 2:14-16) |
| Arrogance? “Some of you have become arrogant, as if I were not coming to you. But I will come to you very soon, if the Lord is willing, and then I will find out not only how these arrogant people are talking, but what power they have. For the kingdom of God is not a matter of talk but of power. What do you prefer? Shall I come to you with a whip, or in love and with a gentle spirit?” (1 Corinthians 4:18-21) |
| Fights? “What causes fights and quarrels among you? Don’t they come from your desires that battle within you? You want something but don’t get it. You kill and covet, but you can not have what you want. You quarrel and fight. You do not have because you do not ask God. When you ask, you do not receive, because you ask with wrong motives, that you may spend what you get on your pleasure.” (James 4) |
| Boasting? “Now listen, you who say, Today or tomorrow we will go to this or that city, spend a year there, carry on business and make money.” Why, you do not even know what will happen tomorrow. What is your life? You are a mist that appears for a little while and then vanishes. Instead, you ought to say, If it is the Lord’s will, we will live and do this or that.” As it is, you boast and brag. All such boasting is evil. Anyone, then, who knows the good he ought to do and doesn’t do it, sins.” (James 4:13-17) |
| Falling away? We believe in not falling away. “We have much to say about this, but it is hard to explain because you are slow to learn. In fact, though by this time you ought to be teachers, you need someone to teach you the elementary truths of God’s word all over again. You need milk, not solid food. Anyone who lives on milk, being still an infant, is not acquainted with the teaching about righteousness. But solid food is for the mature, who by constant use have trained themselves to distinguish good from evil.” (Hebrews 6: 11-14) |
| Gifts and Flowers? From Christian Run businesses? Encouraging others? Spiritual Gifts? “ChristianGiftShops.com” and “ChristianFlowersOnline.com” |
| We believe in encouraging others by giving gifts and flowers but most of all by being generous. We also believe in spiritual gifts of each and every individual, Gifts that our heavenly father has given us which can be used for helping others. “ We have different gifts, according to the grace given us. If a man’s gift is prophesying, let him use it in proportion to his faith. If it is serving, let him serve; if it is teaching, let him teach; if it is encouraging, let him encourage; if it is contributing to the needs of others, let him give generously; if it is leadership, let him govern diligently; if it is showing mercy, let him do it cheerfully.” (Romans 12: 6-8) |
| “Now to each one the manifestation of the spirit is given for the common good. To one there is given the spirit the message of wisdom, to another the message of knowledge by means of the same Spirit, to another faith by the same Spirit, to another gifts of healing by that one Spirit, to another miraculous powers, to another prophecy, to another distinguishing between spirits, to another speaking in different kinds of tongues, and to still another the interpretation of tongues. All these are the work of one and the same Spirit, and he gives them to each one, just as he determines.” (1 Corinthians 12: 7-11) |
