| 2 | Diet ReviewsThe real broscience is thinking that some magic combination of macros and specific foods will yield incredible results not seen on just a basic, solid diet that cuts junk and includes adequate protein and a good selection of vegetables. Most of the fitness industry is a meme targeting young guys who believe they can look like Mike Ohearn if they just eat enough boiled chicken breast and broccoli. It's nonsense.

The bottom line is that the diet that promotes the most optimum hormone levels in YOU while avoiding inflamation from food sensitivities is likely going to be the diet that is best for you.

Here is a list to start: https://www.openbible.info/topics/sexual_purity When you consider the things that you want, what is the first thing that comes to mind?

| 2 | lifting advice?yes, I would be willing to bet you're around 7-9% if you are entering a natural competition. Not only that, there is no method of determining bodyfat that can get anywhere near 0.1% resolution. A dexa scan is +/- like 4-5%. Caliper methods and impedance based methods are even worse. | /r/RPChristians | 07/06/20 11:32 PM |

If anyone wants advice on a program to follow (with specific goals in mind), on foods to eat, or on anything related to HOW to actually lift or train, that is very different. Nobody can or should choose goals for someone else, otherwise those goals are externally motivated and meaningless. He didn't post any lifting stats or any goals other than to get 'more definition'.

It sounds to me like she is trying to make a power grab in the relationship before it locks down, OR she actually has another/other reasons for her doubt. I would ask her directly if there are any other reasons besides the ones she mentioned, then I would tell her she has X amount of time to decide if she thinks those reasons are sufficient to not marry you.

| 1 | Praying with my wifeI would bring up Matthew 7:7-11 and Philip. 4:6 as I think God does want to give you desires of your heart, (Psalm 37), but those desires will be in line with his will if you are 'delighting yourself' in him. So I do think there is benefit in asking God for things we want, but of course there is no guarantee your prayer will be answered in the affirmative.

Thats a very stingy reading of my comment and not what I'm saying.

| 1 | OYS - Where Progress is Made (05/20/20)I think I just fundamentally disagree with your responses. The bottom line is this: Christians constantly like to pretend that physical evidence is somehow 'not that great' or 'might not result in true repentance' but Jesus' ministry on earth was absolutely packed with the supernatural manifestation of his power and authority.

I think a fundamental failing of the church is to understand the epistemology of science, and how evidence relates to theory and in turn relates to fact.

These are not political, moral, or spiritual, they are just truths. Mostly everything after that is 'how to enjoy the decline' and have as much sex as you can.

I am constantly at war with my sin nature, and my desire to procreate with anything with a tight waist. Its a raging battle I can't escape. If I am being honest, I generally find single men in their 40's … | /r/RPChristians | 25/02/20 11:49 PM |
| 2 | Really struggling with turning down non-christian women. Not sure how best to turn them down. Just need some encouragement.Disingenuous deflection. The vein of posturing and trying to out-alpha other members of the community is so cringeworthy. You NEVER see women hot enough for YOU to call them a ten. If I can’t handle temptation I’m weak and nowhere near as spiritually strong as YOU. Give me a break. We are called to have a sober self-assessment, even so Paul calls himself chief among sinners. I don’t presume that I am so almighty that my mere aura will change the hearts and minds of man. I acknowledge my weakness… | /r/RPChristians | 25/02/20 09:53 PM |
| 3 | Really struggling with turning down non-christian women. Not sure how best to turn them down. Just need some encouragement.It’s arrogance to think we can change any woman’s heart by being “totally alpha bro”. God changes the hearts of man, our job is to be men of God. To follow his commands and life as he directed. To radically love our wives and lead them as Christ leads the church, but women still have free will, and can reject that leadership. This girl has every guy in the room in heat, and I’m not arrogant enough to think I am a panacea for the degeneracy of the world. Only Christ has that power. | /r/RPChristians | 25/02/20 07:12 PM |
| 1 | Really struggling with turning down non-christian women. Not sure how best to turn them down. Just need some encouragement.This girl is one of the hottest girls I have ever met. Be honest, when is the last time you were approached by a girl you would call a 10? And can you say with your hand on the Bible that you weren’t tempted? David had like a thousand wives, and he still murdered a man under his command and banged his wife, all because he saw her in a bathtub. Do you think the king of Israel, battle commander, slayer of giants, and man after Gods own heart needed to “seriously work on his frame”? To be honest yo… | /r/RPChristians | 25/02/20 07:04 PM |
| 7 | Really struggling with turning down non-christian women. Not sure how best to turn them down. Just need some encouragement.I don't want to spend my life in strife with a degenerate, willfully sinful wife. Why, God, can I not just find a christian woman? | /r/RPChristians | 25/02/20 06:40 AM |
| 4 | Really struggling with turning down non-christian women. Not sure how best to turn them down. Just need some encouragement.To be fair she could be a christian, I'm barely acquainted with her, but I am 99% sure she isn't. The level of temptation involved in spending time with her would be an insane test of my resolve. I think I need to pray about it. | /r/RPChristians | 25/02/20 06:32 AM |
| 7 | Really struggling with turning down non-christian women. Not sure how best to turn them down. Just need some encouragement.Do you have a friend group that goes to church together? Unfortunately no, I moved here recently, and only have a few friends, none are Christians. I don't know that an insanely hot girl who is interested in me is my sphere of evangelism, but I will be open about my faith and willing to share it. To be honest I am more inclined to 'flee from sexual immorality' than anything else. | /r/RPChristians | 25/02/20 06:23 AM |
| 4 | Really struggling with turning down non-christian women. Not sure how best to turn them down. Just need some encouragement.There are certain points on which I won't compromise. I could never marry a woman who is actively pro-abortion. To me that would be like marrying a cannibal or a pedophile. I'm unsure if spending time with her would be prudent, or just needless temptation. | /r/RPChristians | 25/02/20 06:16 AM |
| 8 | Really struggling with turning down non-christian women. Not sure how best to turn them down. Just need some encouragement.I don't have any intention of having sex with anyone who is not my wife. That line is already drawn. Inferring from your comment, is your advice to simply decline her offers and not interact with her? | /r/RPChristians | 25/02/20 06:07 AM |
| 7 | Q&A on Sexual "Brainwashing"Sex absolutely creates irrational thought patterns regarding your partner, but you know what else does? Love. I would do all kinds of irrational and absurd things to protect my mother or sister. Did they brainwash me by making me love them? Of course not, but sex in a relationship will amplify feelings, which is why its so important to not have sex with anyone who is not your wife. Good write up. | /r/RPChristians | 19/02/20 08:39 PM |
| 1 | More productive ways to “lift?”it just makes it unspecialized. it makes it sub-optimal for strength gains, while also being sub-optimal for endurance training. I don't quite get what its really for, but its pretty fun and a good social climate so I enjoy it. Is the purpose to train for crossfit workouts? If so, individual movements should be trained with periodicity and progressive overload. I have a feeling actual games athletes are not doing Fran, they're working pullups and thrusters into their program, and doing steady st… | /r/RPChristians | 19/02/20 08:23 PM |
| 0 | If you are struggling with repetitive sin, especially if you're a coomer, you need to commit to scripture memory.There is reasonable theological debate on both sides, i.e. they are the same or they are different. I am of the opinion that God's word as revealed to man through the God-breathed scripture is the same as the words of God. I've seen arguments to the contrary, though. https://godsbreath.net/2007/06/26/gods-word/ | /r/RPChristians | 19/02/20 08:08 PM |
| 1 | If you are struggling with repetitive sin, especially if you're a coomer, you need to commit to scripture memory.Do you disagree with scripture, or do you have a different interpretation of the first 3 verses I mentioned? Its not as simple as just memorizing some words, you can have plenty of knowledge in your head and still "just browse instagram" (NO egirls, NEVER!). It sounds like you memorized scripture for the purpose of scripture memory. I feel like you just didn't read what I wrote at all. Scripture memory is step one, a base layer of compacted gravel under a foundation. Without the other steps, its… | /r/RPChristians | 19/02/20 08:02 PM |
| 1 | More productive ways to “lift?”Strength development is a science. Crossfit neglects fundamental aspects of the science of strength gain such as periodization, progressive overload, and skill development in the lifts. The workouts are a random assortment of high intensity exercises paired haphazardly, often just by random people with no specific training or guidance. I do 1 crossfit workout a week and the rest of the time work out on my own. At my gym we have a single movement 'strength portion' before the wod, based on a wend… | /r/RPChristians | 19/02/20 04:19 PM |
| 4 | More productive ways to “lift?”Chopping wood is a good workout and produces a useful product, but its not an efficient way to build muscle. I grew up very poor and our house was heated with wood. As a kid my punishment was often to chop wood. One of my weekly chores was to chop wood, and for money I would sell firewood. I would estimate I've split ~50-60 cords of wood, and I can confidently say its not a mass builder. Pullups and deadlifts will make your back wide, thick, and impenetrable. Chopping wood is good cardio though. | /r/RPChristians | 19/02/20 04:12 AM |
| 5 | Many Christians believe that the Christian red pill ideas promote an anti-Christian perspective on marriage. What’s your response? What would you say to someone who says that the Christian red pill ideas are too process/result oriented?Just cracking a joke chief. "But now you must also rid yourselves of all such things as these: anger, rage, malice, slander, and filthy language from your lips." - Colossians 3:8 "Nor should there be obscenity, foolish talk or coarse joking, which are out of place, but rather thanksgiving." -Ephesians 5:4 "Out of the same mouth come praise and cursing. My brothers and sisters, this should not be." - James 3:10 Plenty of good biblical basis for not cursing. Cursing is a tough one for me, as I gre… | /r/RPChristians | 19/02/20 03:57 AM |

| 10 | More productive ways to “lift?”This sounds like a weird mental-gymnastics excuse to not lift. Lifting seriously will take you 45 minutes, 4 times a week. Thats 3 hours total in your week. If you can't find 3 total hours to lift, you are mismanaging your time. Lifting should not be a suggested activity. Being physically strong is about more than 'being more attractive'. Lifting is one of the primary ways of building discipline, self control, and determination. Its about being capable, prepared, and in control. Manual labor is … | /r/RPChristians | 19/02/20 02:42 AM |
