"the Daniel fast"... and what it did for me...

Please explain why it would make a difference to you if more people abstained from sex before marriage. I am not condemning nor condoning; just wondering how it would affect you either way.
less chance of unwanted pregnancy??
You realize birth control exists, right? Also, unwanted pregnancies can happen regardless of one's marital status; it's not like sperm goes "we'd fertilize that egg and give these two a pregnancy they don't want, but since they're married, we'll cut them some slack..."
stop using logic. there's no room for that here. we're talking about fasting.
AND THE TOXINS

EXCEPT for Adam and Eve and the Ten Commandments.
That's not in the 10 Commandments. :-)It's ok...ignorant people say stupid things. If you believe in God and the bible (and you can't say you believe in God if you dont believe his word), then you know what happened to Daniel in the Lions Den and why, you know what fasting means and why we do it, you know what sexual impurity is and what it means, you know what Gd says about marriage and sex before marriage. If you dont know, then you're ignorant. If you want to know, go read the WORD! If you don't want to know, then don't ask. The sad thing is that you want to know, but you don't like the answer because it doesnt sit well with your soul, and it means having to raise your standards and be responsible with the truth you've been given (God's word), but that would just be too much for you and so you take to sarcasm and slander in order to make yourself feel better. Good luck with that.
OP - Obviously, you did something right! It worked and praise God for it!
The Bible also says that if I get raped I am required to marry my rapist or be put to death, and if I'm married and my husband dies I have to marry his brother. GOD'S WORD!!! I don't think you should be calling other people ignorant when your book is FULL of inconsistencies and you've only bothered to read the selected sections that fit with your world view. Also, I hope you don't eat swine or wear cotton and linen together, you might be smote.
Isn't there something about eating seafood aswell in the 10 commandments? I'll be checking diaries!!!!
But the 10 Commandments are the only pasrt of the Old Testament Christians have to follow, I'm told. They ignore the rest. Something about a new covenent.
The New Covenant effectively invalidated the entire Old Testament.0 -
In all serousness, she did it for spiritual reasons, not weight loss. It was just a side effect. And 5 pounds in three weeks isn't a huge rate of loss. I doubt she only lost water weight.what is wrong with white sugar?
you realize you could of had same results with a 500 calorie per day deficit and not torturing yourself for 21 days..additionally, most of what was lost was more than likely water weight..just saying..
but good luck to you in keeping it off...
I kinda feel bad for the OP. Bu tthat rape and sex trade comment ...0 -

I will have to check scripture before I agree or disagree. I was under the impression that the New Covenant supercedes the 10 Commandments.0 -

It would lower teen pregnancy rate as well as lower the amount of tax dollars going into helping this teen. It would also prevent STDs from spreading.... The only way their personal life would affect the community is through the amount of governmental support (tax dollars)0

I am usually impressed when a Christian even knows about the New Covenant tbh. They largely do not know or understand their own Scripture.0 -

No it wouldnt, lol.
Sex education is a better way to prevent those things, along with more readily available sexual health services.0 -
Ah. From the Daniel Fast, to religion, and to the world wide slave trade in less than 2 pages. MFP delivers.
