I'm not sure what the word for it is.. it ends in "thetic" i think.. but anyway.. I have to explain this so I can see what others think of this.

So umm.. I'm going to let you guys in on something I probably shouldn't be talking about but I can't take it anymore I need advice and I need to know what others think of this thing.

So basically last night my boyfriend was talking about how he went to church on Sunday and that there was a guy there of whom "god spoke through".. He was apparentely telling him things about himself that he didn't even know, and telling him things that were true, and this guy hadn't even met him before. Anyway.. The part that I'm so upset about is the fact that this guy brought ME up and started talking about me in bad terms.. He told my boyfriend that he wasn't respecting me, that things aren't going to work out and to not pay attention to me or focus time on me at all. Basically this guy was telling him (or as my bf puts it 'god was telling me through this guy) to break up with me. I think he also mentioned something like "you should only date a christian girl" or something like that.. but I couldn't be wrong about that, he only mentioned something along those lines.. Not entirely sure. I was too rattled to understand what was going on and what he was trying to say.

Now, we haven't broken up as of yet.. Because I was trying to make sure that this guy wouldn't get into my bf's head too much but I can see that thats already happened!.. And whats worse is that this guy is saying things to him like "Quit your job and worry about money later". Theres NOTHING my boyfriend could do in our city that would give him more money than he is now with garunteed hours! You don't understand! Our city is TINY.. the best job is the job we both have right now, Teletech, where you earn $10 an hour and they garuntee you full time / part time hours depending on which you applied for. He's full time making quite a lot right now.. If he quits, theres nothing else for him. I don't know how to tell him though because he believes that god is speaking to him through this guy.

Anyway. I didn't want to bring this up on here and I may be deleting this once I see what you guys think(because if my boyfriend ever found out I had leaked this, he'd be pissed). So please try and be quick with your responses, as i'll be deleting this entire post in a couple days.

I'm not entirely sure whether I beleive this or not.. or maybe I do and I just don't want to. My personal opinions is never to bash other people's beliefs so I'm not going to say anything mean about this, I was just wondering what other people's takes were on this.
Thanks in advance for your thoughts, guys.

Singapore got lots of these things. I know of people who are like that. But all the Gods that go into their body is Buddist type of God.

I don't know if it's true on your part. But I don't think God will ask someone to quit their job or say bad things about that person's GF. Maybe it's a fraud?

I wouldn't believe the guy. If God had something to say about me and how my life is going, God should tell me personally, not though someone nether myself or my GF (if I had one) knew.

I'll admit: what the guy said is possible, but, for me, it isn't probable. The future is forever changing. Something that hasn't been done isn't set in stone.

If anything; be careful: the seed of doubt is very dangerous and grows at an incredibly fast rate.

I'm not sure on any of this. I believe things happen for a reason and things go according to Gods way or plan. It may not be God directly communicating through an actual person but it may be a indirect way of telling you to change in some way, whether it be in opinion or way of life.

This, with just some tiny modifications, could be an awesome copy/pasta.

Really, I think that "telepathic" guy could have been one of your friends that your bf don't know about. He just simply played a prank on you.

That, or its an aggressive stalker that wants you for himself.

Or it could also just be some random guy that someone you know payed to play a prank on you ;P

I don't believe in these telepathic stuff, I would have freaked out if someone came up to me (that I don't know) and started to talk about my personal life, I would probably have called the cops or something.

FYI, God does indeed say in the Bible that Christians should not marry those who are not fellow Christians. The reason is that the non-Christian person (no matter how humanly good they may be) will quite likely pull you away from God. This does not by any means mean I or anyone else cannot be friends, even close friends, with those who do not share the faith. It simply means that before you set a person who does not share your faith and love in God in the "second most important person in my entire life system" spot you may want to consider all the effects of that.
However, any fool can claim that "God has spoked through me!!!" and you can't tell the difference. Satan himself twisted the Bible when tempting Jesus, so methinks he isn't above sending someone to claim to be God's messenger. My advice to your friend is to pray and consider the path he should take in regards to this information. The talk about quitting his job especially sets off little warning lights and alarms. Methinks someone is making false claims.

Yeah I felt that the job thing was false too.. I reeeeally don't want him to quit his job because quite litteraly it's the only job in town that pays $10 an hour with garunteed hours.. He wont make any more money anywhere else with garunteed hours.

And I told him that if it would really make him feel better that I could become a christian, because I used to go to church every week with my family but then we just sort of stopped going after a while.. and then he said "No, you'd be doing it for the wrong reasons.. you'd be doing it for me not for yourself". -_-

And Jollepoker, I've only ever stepped foot in his hometown(where he goes to church.. it's about half an hour away) once.. So I highly doubt any of those prank things.

It really sounds like, to me at least, that the "Oracle" your boy friend spoke to was speaking to him straight up Fundamentalist Christian ideals, in that he told him he shouldn't date non-Christians and that he should quit his job. In other words just trying to push an agenda.

In addition, I would straight out doubt his God given powers of divination. He was probably using an age old technique that fortune tellers and psychics use to this day. He asked your boy friend a series of vague questions based on his physical appearance until he gave him enough information indirectly so that this so called Seer could ask more specific questions.
An example of this would be that this guy sees that your boyfriend is a young guy and what do young guys have? Girlfriends. All this guy would have to say is "Do you have a girlfriend?" and given the fact that this man already claims to speaking for God predisposes your boyfriend to thinking this man has come to this conclusion through some divine means. Then all your boyfriend would have to say is yes, then that opens the door to Mr.Holy Man to make a whole bunch of vague assumptions that could be applied to nearly any relationship (You're not respecting her, its not going to work, ect.)

Bottom line, I think this guy is taking advantage of your boyfriend.

I'm pretty much where slate is. He's obviously a fake nut, and nobody in their right mind would belive him. Your boyfriend seems like a reasonable, smart guy from what you told me or you most likely wouldn't of liked him in the first place. If he wants to belive this "Cornello", (The fake prophet (sp?) in Fullmetal Alchemist cuz this guy sounds alot like him) then it really wasn't ment to work out. It's as simple as that. This guy sonds more dangerous than anything else so the both of you should just stay away before he brainwashes one of you or something.

I don't want to sound insulting, but I think youre boyfriend is a bit shallow to throw such important things in he's life like job and relationship, just because this one person told god he speaks through him.
I mean, with all the love and respect you can give the lord, you shouldn't do things you know are bad for you. Hell, the reason people pray and love god to begin with is because god is supposed to help them in life, not make life worser!!


Also I think you should tell him that this guy is just a lunatic.
I mean, im no religious wiz or whatever, but im sure god's real intentions are to make sure we're all happy and well.
If youre so called god tells you to get youreself in trouble, no matter what religion youre from, than that really ain't god but just some religious lunatic being obbssesive about the whole thing.
At least that's what I believe.

.... .... .... *gives vee a hug*

I am really astonished... and I am so so sorry vee..., I'm sorry the guy was a flake, willing to throw everything away just because this so-called 'prophet' told him to, I didn't think he was THAT religious..., I mean, if he was willing to believe that, he'd probably believe anything...,

I'm sorry you wasted your energy and feelings on this guy, you must feel like crap right now...,
