Your Questions, Honest Answers: - December 23, 2020

HOW DO I PREPARE MYSELF FOR DATING IN THE FUTURE? Read Transcript


- We're gonna start withthis question from Kenny.

He says: I got my girlfriend pregnant.

And she wants an abortion,despite my objections.

What can I do to convinceher to keep the child

and not go through with this abortion?

Pat.- I think I'd share

that verse in Revelation that said:

Before I

knew you, before I formed you I knew you,

and I ordained thatyou would be a prophet.

That child has a destiny.

And you have to convince thatgirl that she has a destiny.

Now you see, you gotta pray.

You're not married,

so she's gonna be a single mother,

and she doesn't wantto have to raise a kid.

Well, the other thing is,

you say there are Christianadoption agencies,

and we can arrange an adoption,

but please don't destroy the life

that can be so useful to God.

- Yeah, please pray for thatyoung man and that young girl.

Well, Annie says:

I became a Christian when I was a child.

I've had a life full of sin,

sex, stealing, lying,affairs with married men,

and an abortion.

Isn't committing sin knowingly

worse than not knowingly?

Jesus told people to go and sin no more.

As an adult, I've asked for forgiveness,

but I know you believe peoplecan lose their salvation.

Is this enough bad stuff, do you think,

to make me lose my hope of heaven?

- Annie, you sure have runthe full gambit, haven't you?

Is there any sin you haven't committed?

It looks like you've done 'em all.

Listen, the Bible saysall sins and blasphemies

will be forgiven the sons of men,

and it doesn't matter whether you did it

when you're old, young, or whenever.

And yes, even when you knew

that you were doing something wrong,

that's a transgression, that there's sins,

and the sins (indistinct)or falling short.

The other is you're going across the line.

But you knew you were doingbad, you did it anyhow.

Get before God, say, look,here's what I've done.

Be tough on yourself,be brutal on yourself,

and say, Lord, I did this and I did this

and I'm sorry, and I did it, and I did it,

and Lord, I ask Your forgiveness.

And from then on, God willdo a miracle in your life.

Yes, He will forgive you.

All sins and blasphemies

will be forgiven the sons of men, okay?

- Amen, good word.

Here's Mary, she says:

Pat, I'm so glad you got goodresults from your eye surgery.

I'm curious about the aftercare involved.

- Well, I have some drops.

One of the ladies putscouple drops in my eyes.

This eye gets three or four times a day.

I get two drops, and then Iget one drop during meals,

and then that's it.

And I think that'sgonna be over next week.

And my eyes are just doing great.

I'm just so, I'm a fan of Dr. Scoper,

my eyes are incredible.

- Yeah, I think they actuallylook bigger and brighter.

- Oh, I can see.

I don't need glasses,

I don't need glasses to watch TV.

I don't need glasses to read.

I do have a little bit of amagnifier for small print,

but I can, you know, this stuff here,

I can read, no trouble.

I mean, it's a miracle.

- Most importantly, youcan drive your new car.

- Absolutely, I call it Diagnostic.

Diagnostic is outside snorting

and waiting for me to get in control.

- Cataract surgery.- Yeah, amen.

- Nicole says: I just got out of a breakup

as a young teenage girl.

I really wanna be patientfor who God has for me

and be prepared.

How can I prepare myself fordating a guy in the future?

- I don't know how,

I'm a little bit oldfor being worried about

how to prepare yourself for dating,

but I just, listen.

The last thing you,

what you wanna do is be so attractive.

You don't wanna just belike a, quote, dumb broad

who's, you're beautiful,you got nothing upstairs.

You wanna learn things,I mean, educate yourself.

Instead of getting ready for dating,

get ready for life.

You are just gonna go outand grab life by the horns

and you're going to be God's Wonder Woman.

Find Peace with God
