Since you're not a Catholic, why should you mourn? God did what He wanted with your husband, that's no reason to be sad.

I think you and Peter could marry within a month (to leave you some time for preparations and such), and then you could start producing your little young.

Catholics also eat 3 meals a day. Just because I eat 3 meals a day does not make me a catlick.
I mourn because I want God to comfort me. It is easier to make good decisions when not distracted by thoughts of an ex husband and floppy bits. Matthew 5:4 Blessed are they that mourn: for they shall be comforted.

I'm sorry Sister Basilissa, but I fail to see your objections. This would be a wonderful solution to your terrible plight.

Bea, as your sister in Christ and my church's senior pastor's wife, I admonish you for being an uppity wench here. Remember we are to be submissive and demure. 1 Peter 3:4 says "But let it be the hidden man of the heart, in that which is not corruptible, even the ornament of a meek and quiet spirit, which is in the sight of God of great price."

Yours in Christ,
Elizabeth

Can everybody just dial it down a notch and remember Beatrice is shell-shocked from being trapped in a loveless marriage to an atheist?

You can't expect a woman's mind to be right after living under the thrall of a God-mocker for years and years.

Let's all just focus on praying for her and helping her find the right Bible fellowship.

Beatrice, can you tell us what city or county Peter may have been arrested in? I've been phoning around trying to help him, not none of the authorities I've spoken to have him in custody.

Than you for your understanding Brother Machine

The police aren't divulging much to me either. However, I've been talking with mother, and we have decided to take the evidence to the police that Bob's death was clearly an "Act of God". Part of that evidence will of course be a Bible (KJV). I am sure that wherever he's being held, that this will be sufficient to secure the release of Young Peter. Under no circumstance will I divulge the contents of the letter I received from him in yesterday's mail. Neither though, will I destroy it.

[Naomi Ruth Lamb]

Sister Beatrice,

You seem like the kind of person that would enjoy helping release Young Peter. There are many Young Peters out there, just waiting for ladies like you to hold them close and bring them the kind of love only a servant of Jesus can bring.

Please don't let Young Peter remain cramped in whatever close confines he is now. It's up to you to pull him out of there. Whatever you do to bring him release, just keep it going, steady and lovingly. I can't wait to hear about the outcome - something tells me it will be good.

I know good lawyers and will be happy to pay for one or two if that is necessary. You just can't keep good Young Peter down.

Knowingly (in Jesus),
NRL

Brother FM,

How your interest in Young Peter warms my heart. I always knew it was there, of course, but it's nice to see that you're letting it show.

Now if only you would tell the truth about Sister Cookie

Your devotion to helping others will be met with the appropriate reward someday when Jesus returns. May that be very soon.

Your Sister in Him,
NRL

Hey Bea, guess what's still waiting for an answer?

Why should I bother answering atheist scum like you?
I was speaking of my father's pastor, as I attended no church for the whole time of my marriage. And my behaviour has not been sinful. No pastor here has rebuked me. The only one to rebuke me is you. Yes, you. You who are an agent of Satan - a dirty filthy atheist. Begone!

As you immediately follow that with actually answering me, you can answer that question better than I can.

Have you already forgotten that you admitted (in your introductory post) refusing your husband his request to watch you have sex with a prostitute, in direct violation of:

Ephesians 5:23 "For the husband is the head of the wife, even as Christ is the head of the church: and he is the saviour of the body."

Now you can add lying to the list of stuff you need to repent for.

...No pastor here has rebuked me...

How did you miss this?

And Billy-Bob Jenkins, Faith Machine, A Follower, Alvin Moss, BrotherLarry, Naomi Ruth Lamb, Basilissa, Basilissa again, and finally Mrs. Elizabeth Johnson.

...Yes, you. You who are an agent of Satan - a dirty filthy atheist. Begone!

The pastors decide who can stay here, not some n00b who doesn't even know the faith she professes, thanks.

Wrong. I told him I didn't want to participate, not that I wouldn't. I refused him nothing. Now I don't need to

How did you miss this?

There is no rebuke in that.

None of whom are pastors. And some of whom are forum members like myself. And most of whom did not even attempt to rebuke me in any fashion. You have a vivid imagination.

The pastors decide who can stay here, not some n00b who doesn't even know the faith she professes, thanks.

And likewise, the pastors decide who deserves to be rebuked. Not some atheist prick.

Sweetie, I understand that being a female you are unable to keep track of the things that happen and the things that you say. That's how God created us - we are to serve men, and listen to their commands, therefore, they are the ones who need to remember stuff, not us.

Nevertheless, sometimes, that typical female carelessness may look like you're lying. You don't want to seem like lying, do you, sweetie?

I assume that you don't. Therefore, please stop denying your own sin of disobeying your husband. As you have once said:

You - the mindless body, disobeyed your husband - the rightful head of your family (1 Corinthians 11:3). You deserve to go to for that disobedience (of course, you would have been heading the same way if you obeyed your husband and had intercourse with another man - apparently, God really wants to send you to Hell for some reason).

I'm still debating whether I should pray for you or not. You see, now that your husband is dead (and hopefully you and Young Peter had nothing to do with it), you have another chance to marry and be an submissive, obedient Christian wife again. Unfortunately, with that pride and lying forgetfulness of yours, you won't get a good husband, dear.

...Wrong. I told him I didn't want to participate, not that I wouldn't. I refused him nothing. Now I don't need to ...

How awfully convenient.

Of course, you will now post a link to a reputable news organization's coverage of your husband's gruesome murder and the ensuing police investigation to avoid any suspicion that you are just fabricating this whole episode in some misguided attempt to garner sympathy from strangers on the internet.

...There is no rebuke in that...

If you refuse to see it, I can't force you to.

...None of whom are pastors...

Where did I claim they were?

...And most of whom did not even attempt to rebuke me in any fashion...

So you admit some did, and therefore I am NOT the only one to rebuke you, so your claim that I was the only one is a lie. Get to the repenting.

...And likewise, the pastors decide who deserves to be rebuked...

When they tell me to stop trying to get you to follow what Jesus said in the Bible, I'll stop.

...Not some atheist prick.

Insults only work if I respect your judgement.

[Faith_Machine]

Now hold on just one cotton-picking minute! I certainly never rebuked Beatrice.

Stop trying to play mind-games with a grieving widow, you morally bankrupt atheist!

[Harsha Shah]

Yes, Hello Beatrice. This is Harsha. Yes.

Did you get to go to church? I am hoping that it was a pleasant experience. You have been having so much violence in your life that it is time you had some peace. If a church can offer you that it is perfectly fine. Yes, it is. After all, Your Jesus was about peace. It is in your Epistle of John 14th chapter. "My peace I give onto you." I am hoping all the best for you, Beatrice. Yes.

[Beatrice Little]

Thank you for your concern, Harsha. Yes I attended church with my parents and Matty. It was wonderful to feel enveloped in Jesus' arms again. To feel that love oozing as it were, all over me. I figure that it was about that time that my husband finally met Satan.
Matthew 10:34 Think not that I am come to send peace on earth: I came not to send peace, but a sword.
He brought the sword to my husband well and truly, and out of that, I gained peace. Not peace on earth, but peace to those who merit it. Luke 7:50 And he said to the woman, Thy faith hath saved thee; go in peace.

Yes, Mrs. Little,

I am happy for your peace of mind. I am not against christians finding their peace in their own manner. Yes. We are all children of this same beautiful universe even if our religions do not always agree. Yes. I am hoping that your life will be better now. Yes!
