My description:
Vegan for health reasons since 1975. My biological age is about 52. I expect to live another 30 years and never become senile or feeble.
I am a survivor of childhood cancer, visibly mutilated by surgery. I have an amazing story of natural healing. I also have permanent injuries from a 1997 accident with medical complications. I bicycle for exercise. I am a very deep thinker and passionate about ideas ("Ideas have consequences"- Francis Schaeffer). I am INTJ on the Myers-Briggs chart. Although I am very intellectual and introspective I am also tender-hearted and capable of deep feelings. I am also handy and mechanical. In some ways I am a right-wing fundamentalist and in some ways I am a liberal- that's because the Christian lifestyle transcends all human definitions and boundaries. I own four handguns and have a defensive mindset. I did well as a survivalist in the July, 2019 earthquakes where I live.
I don't attend any church because there is no real church within any reasonable driving distance of the remote place where I live. I regard almost all of organized Christianity as being very corrupt.
I think it's contrary to God's plan and very psychologically unhealthful to live alone and be socially isolated. we live in a very sick and dehumanized industrial society. I believe that marriage and family is the basis of society (not much left of that basis, which is rather terrifying). Metaphysically I am still young because I am still learning about myself (how sick and twisted I am compared to the perfect humanity of Jesus), growing, and being conformed to the divine image. I feel a great desire to overcome the limitations of my depraved humanness- this is a basic characteristic of real Christians.
I am spiritually regenerated through faith in Jesus the Messiah and, accordingly, indwelt by the Holy Spirit, the third person of the Trinity. I am not the typical, stereotyped insipid, shallow, rule-following, approval-seeking "Christian". I regard salvation as a wholistic restoration of the image of God in humanity, which begins at the New Birth. I am Reformed (Calvinist) in theology but don't believe that any denomination has all the truth. I regard Christianity (as understood by Abraham Kuyper) as a total world-and-life view, but more than any "view"- it's an organic union with God through the indwelling of the Holy Spirit. Francis Schaeffer wrote a lot of books directed to intellectual non-Christians to show them how untenable the non-Christian position is. A very important book i recently read is God and Man At Work, by Udo Middelmann (another of Schaeffer's disciples and sons-in-law).
Seeking:
organic christian. longtime vegetarian, healthy lifestyle. no TV or electronic entertainment. a "Mennonite hippie" with Reformed theology. income or wealth not an issue. OK if physically damaged (but hopefully you can go potty by yourself and you don't have any tubes coming out of you LOL). someone who thinks "outside the box" (Romans 12:2). intelligent and sensitive. someone who can know me in all my paradoxical, inconsistent and confused sincerity, and appreciate me as an imperfect but regenerated human being.
