I have children with someone outside of marriage. I am trying to get back into the faith but she is not a believer and we’re not together. What should I do? I have heard from others that we should get married and from others not to try and get married and to try to find a Christian woman instead.</p> <p>2. James 4:3 says, “You ask and do not receive, because you ask wrongly, to spend it on your passions.” I have been praying to God to give me a godly wife to curb my passions in light of 1 Corinthians 7:9, “But if they can not exercise self-control, they should marry. For it is better to marry than burn with passion.” But James 4:3 seems to imply that God won’t answer my prayer because I seek to fulfill my passion. Is that right?</p> <p>3. My adult children have cut me out of their life. I have cancer and am going through chemotherapy now and I am wondering how I can re-establish those relationships?</p> <p>4. Did David have faith that God would protect him when he faced Goliath?</p> <p>5. Does Jesus prefer a particular political wing or party?</p> <h4>Today’s Offer</h4> <p><a href= "https://corechristianity.com/product/why-would-anyone-get-married-booklet/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Why Would Anyone Get Married?</a></p> <p>Request our latest special offers <a href= "http://corechristianity.com/resource-library/special-offers/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">here</a> or call 1-833-THE-CORE (833-843-2673) to request them by phone.</p> <p>Want to partner with us in our work here at Core Christianity?
