I feel Lost and alone

Hi
i need some prayer and advise my partner of present is heavily into the church (Christ embassy) and is wanting us to get married, but because of my past which i am sure some of you have read already he is blaming my past for the reasons i don't go to church and also because of my views on church which was reveled to me through bible truths, he is also saying he will speak to my parents about this but yet he cannot tell his mum, pastor or others that i don't attend church, tell me please what should i do, i know i have done wrong already by living together with him, since December, and now i feel like i want to run away, as even though i try to tell him some of the truths of god like we should not buy or sell in the house of God he says it applies only to doves and money changers of that time.
he has been going to church on his own, but when i attended with him a couple of times as usual, my spirit was not at peace with his church as the are so much into speaking in tongues, tithing etc, so i don't go to church with him anymore, it funny, when i first went everyone would speak to me and call me to see how i was and to see if i was coming to church, but now they don't want to know me because i don't attend their church, they only now visit and call my partner and ask of me and say hello to me through him (which i feel is out of politeness, not because they really care), this does not make me feel Great at all and all this is happening and we are not even married yet?
Please advise my brothers and sisters as you are the only ones who understand me.
God Bless U ??? :(

Hi Decas,
Well I think you already know what you should do, hasn't that little voice been speaking to you. Here are somethings you said; now i feel like i want to run away, and my spirit was not at peace with his church, and this does not make me feel Great. These feeling that you are having should not be ignored.
You can see that this situation is already not good. So why would you ever think of getting married to him? It is not wrong to marry someone who does not have the same understanding of the Truth as you do, if you can live together in peace. I do not see that in your case.
I can see that the Spirit is speaking to your heart, just listen to IT.
You are in my prayers :)
mercy, peace and love

Good Morning, Decas!
I too once felt extremly lonely, until one day God intervened and let me know in a very unmistakable way that I am NEVER alone, not even for the tiniest fraction of a nanosecond! Hallelujah!!!
Also, I have learned that following my heart's nudgings has been very accurate over my whole life. There is a saying : "Take a lesson from a pin : its head keeps it from going too far." So, listening to my heart FIRST, and then applying the lesson of a pin's head, yields good results.
Applying Psalm 16:11 is a very happy Experience for ANYone. So also is Isaiah 26:3. Between these two Scriptural passages lies Peace, TRUE Peace.....! :D :D :D
God BLESS you RICHLY today, and forever!!

Good Morning Decas,
I totally agree with what the others have already mentioned in the above posts.
A friend once told me to follow after peace. If there is no peace in your relationship now...why would it "magically" change just because you have gotten married? That is why it is always important to "work out your own salvation with fear and tembling." We cannot change anyone else, only God can work on us.
My husband and I have been separated for almost 3 years (May '05). We were together for 10 years. One of the things I learned is, if they do things that you don't like before you get married, they will still do it even after you get married. So we are left with two choices...we can realize we are the one with the problem and pray to God to change us....or
in situations of extreme abuse or disobedience, and where there is no mature conversation, then it would be wise to leave.
Also, it is very difficult to be in an unequal relationship...where you are coming to the Truths presented here and your significant other is still in the church system.
I know God's will shall be done in your life and your life will glorify him AMEN

I will keep you in prayer, but have to agree w/ the other posters.
My best friend has been divorced for about 5 years now. She was a strong Christian at the time (you all know what I mean in Christendom) and the other night I asked her....WHY did you marry him. You knew he didn't believe like you? She said "I dunno. I thought he would change" WEll, he changed all right for the worse. She had to call the law on several occassions and get a restraining order. the misery she endured w/ him.
You know way more in the Lord now, than she did then.
