Indeed, many unmarried people do understand that no wing unmarried is not ideal. But still, they can’t punish themselves for missing the boat. They can get some meaning out of warning younger people.
Well, obviously, one of the point of this post, this series, and the conversation that I hope we will continue to have is to teach them to want to. To encourage them to want to. To command them to want to. To be a voice, crying in the wilderness of modern perversion and call people back to truth.
I think I’m going to answer your last question here because this thread is getting a bit too deep.
I believe that I can do all of the things that I talked about on my Substack, but I can also do them in person, when I preach at Church, when I talk to my children and this kind of thing.
I know that people have a kind of phobia in modern life about the word command, but it’s a perfectly good word and it’s not actually hard to do. We have a tense or whatever you wanna call it in English called the command form. I would just use it. Indeed, I do use it.
No. A command is a command, regardless of whether the person commanding you can punish you.
Often times we use commands when we’re telling someone to do something that is going to punish them, without us having anything to do with it. So a policeman might say stop to a car because that car if they continue, it’s gonna fall into the river because the bridge is broken.
Mayhaps Married folk should adopt a non-married work friend and invite him to spend time with them. During these get-togethers, an unmarried man could be invited to an unmarried woman.
I think we are not doing a good job in telling unmaried people what they are missing. They are missing the love of a spouse, the love of and for children, for in and outlaws.

Sometimes. Sometimes on my phone edit isn’t one of the options for those three dots.

I think they can do a LOT more than that.
But do they want to? 🤷♂️

Incentivising them would be more effective.
Well, I’ll be interested in hearing how you’re going to use your Substack to incentivise them.
Make compelling arguments to give them a purpose. How would you command them to?

Yes, indeed. But “command” comes with a punishment, right? A hypothetical imperative, if then else.

Ok, so that’s a warning then, not really a command. :)

Oh, I go way, way, way beyond that. Light years beyond. Buzz Lightyears beyond.
At some point, you and I need to meet in person.
