Let’s Discuss…about Christianity’s Take On Soul-mates
The piece you will read below is something penned by a Kitodiariesian, Festus Ola. (Remember the story, Aboki, Give Us Water [Read HERE]… he wrote that) Anyway, he gave voice to his rumination concerning what the Bible had to say about soul mates, and how the Holy Book’s take could include the love of people in same sex relationships. Read below.
*
Okay… I have been doing some thinking. You know how the Bible talked about the marriage of a man and woman as becoming one “flesh”? (Mark 10:8). How come the Holy Book also laid some emphasis on two men becoming soul mates as stated in 1 Samuel 18: 1 (said the souls of David and Jonathan were knitted together). Furthermore, we all know about the story of the relationship between David and Jonathan, how they swore oaths of undying love more than once, even to the point of Jonathan becoming naked while taking the oath.
This makes me wonder about the difference. The Bible urges us to focus on things of the soul because the “flesh profiteth nothing.” If so, does it mean perhaps there is a different and deeper significance to relationships when it comes to the soul of two people, two people who could also be two men or two women?
In today’s world, people (Christians inclusive) are encouraged to marry their soul mates as a major tool for a long lasting happy marriage.
In as much as I don’t know if David and Jonathan or Ruth and Naomi shared any sexual intimacy during their relationships, I must say that the level of their relationship coupled with the powerful words of sworn love would have raised more than a few eye-brows if they were in today’s world.
Bottom line? A man’s soul mate can be another man. My Bible tells me so.
*
Back to me… this begs the question as to whether there is a tacit endorsement of same sex relationships in the Bible, given that it flourished the relationships between David and Jonathan, and Ruth and Naomi. #JustWondering… What do you think?

September 13, 05:13I’m no bible expert but the issue of soulmate is something I’m quite skeptical about.
The bible could’ve inferred that two men could be soulmates.
I’ve since lost the urge to seek the bible’s approval about my sexuality. We were born this way and if the ppl who wrote the bible didn’t know about this, then its their own kettle of fish..Why should I be bothered?
Ever since we were born, its like we’ve already been cursed…First they say u were born with original sin..And then it goes on to teach you one fear after another…
I used to have nightmares as a kid(a combination of bible teachings &Nigerian movies) thank God I snapped out of it early.
The kind of love I feel for my fellow human being shouldn’t be an abomination whether its a man or woman.
I know its important to some of us to seek approval or try and decipher certain things about love between two men in the bible, but no matter what you find, it won’t make much difference…

September 13, 06:01Ruth and Naomi??? I thot they were just Mother-in-law and Daughter-in-law??? She was only VERY devoted to her mother-in-law. I think she loved Jews and their Customs A LOT. I didn’t hear her argue as much as when Naomi was chasing her back to Moab when she was asked to jump into Boaz’ bed though.
I’m sorry, but I just feel this is some desperate measure to cause christianity to accept homosexuality tho. Parallel lines. How bout if Christianity is NOT the only path to God?
Absalom
September 13, 06:26My layman’s opinion is that: There’s not enough material to show Ruth and Naomi were anything more than in-laws.
I can see why anyone would entertain the thought that David and Jonathan had a sexual relationship, (and indeed they may have had one) but my question: Is this not rooted in the idea that men cannot be affectionate to each other outside of a sexual context? See this> http://m.huffpost.com/us/entry/5241953?ncid=fcbklnkushpmg00000063
I’ve seen platonic friendships that push the limits of what’s socially “acceptable” for men in terms of showing affection (and sometimes it leads to “conversions” and experimentations. But that’s another matter.) What if as Dave and Joe were kissing and slobbering all over each other, they were adding #NoHomo at the end? (lol)
Bottomline: I don’t see irefutable evidence that Dave and Joe had or DID NOT have a sexual relationship. It could have been anything. Or everything.
Bible scholars got this one. Lemme go check out that Mr. Nigeria post.

September 13, 06:30Now the king James bible has 66 books right? The catholics (which I was born one) has some more books which are not in the king James (the canonical books or something). Now who made the decision to remove these books and give us the “bible” as we know it today?
Historians also tell us that even the catholic version had some books removed before they compiled them. This begs the question, what was the criteria for deciding which book should stay or which should go? Are we no curious that there maybe a deliberate attempt to remove or hide some information that the church doesn’t want us to see?
There are rumors that one of the lost (abi removed) books endorsed same-sex relationships. I heard this from a catholic priest, but I have not verified that piece of information.
Also bear in mind that the “bible” as we know it was written by men who must have infused their own ideals and thoughts into it.
I fear that as I get older I may become more agnostic, because religion is looking more and more like a tool for manipulation.

September 14, 10:05Pls let’s get something straight here. I think some of us due to their desperation to discredit the Bible as man,s word rather God,s word are deliberately confusing the facts or putting it mildly,saying things they don’t know or are not sure of. 1st of all,the idea of re-writing the Bible yearly or periodically was an Islamic one.Islamic scholars used that to pacify their followers on the non mention of mohammed in d Bible and the sonship of christ.they claim that during one of this modifications the book of Barnabas was removed and hidden.this is a discuss for another day.there was no re-writing of d Bible or its colation in Nicea or by St Athanasius. What happened in both instances was the “elaboration “of the christian creed 4 a clearer understanding of d concept of d Trinity thus the Nicen creed and the Athanasian creed came into existence and is still being recited in xtian churches world over.The Bible has never been modified after its collation.what happens is the production of versions of d Bible for clearer insights eg,king James version.revised standard version,new international version etc. I have been restricting myself from directly saying something on xtianity and homosexuality but I feel duty bound to point this out,christianity is not d only religion that tends to condemn homosexuality.Islam does but why are we not attacking these religions? I’m not surprised! It’s not new.when people whem keggite for instance was formed with d objective of fighting foreign culture in Nigerian universities, it attacked xtianity and left islam.pray,is Islam African? AIT will make its presenters to drop their xtian names for their African names but Muslims are allowed to retain theirs. This is curious and suggestive. Let’s look inwards and tell our selves the truth.its a tragedy for one to deceive himself.yes,the Bible condemns homosexuality in about 3 places or so but why? Note that Christ never said a word on homosexuality! Also note that He Never condemned d adulterous woman.these are foods for thought my brothers.im sorry 4 this lengthy submission.

September 13, 15:33Christians believe that the Bible is a collection of d writings of inspired men of God.The men (Holy ghost fathers)who made these collections are also believed to b under d inspiration.there is d general Bible (d canonical)and d Roman catholic Bible(d non-canonical).xtian teachings made it clear that it is hard to believe xcept by faith and perhaps inspiration.eg ; an article that I consider the most explicit on d xtian concept of d trinity has a footnote that said that “however it is not easy to understand and believe these things”. God is d same with His word.The word is alive.the word was made flesh.very confusing,abi?The Bible has already acknowledged that.it is a faith thing.My opinion is that d Bible is God,s word though with some human touch here and there but still it remains “the Book”.Even the Koran said so.
Dimkpa
September 14, 12:44Please check your facts. The Bible has been edited by men. Things such as the divinity of Christ were even said to be added. The Council at Nicea did more than elaborate. They took a vote on things as the Trinity in which the proponents won by one vote. The dissenters were eventually killed off.
So the bible you have is exactly what some men want you to believe

September 14, 13:07This lie is not new to me.thats exactly what Islam wants us to believe because it’s greatest problem is the divinity of Christ.why will xtians kill because one has a difrent view? That’s islamic not xtian.xtian beliefs are by convictions and not by conpulsion

September 13, 19:42@Dennis,Constantine had nothing to do with the compilation of the Bible.He was already dead decades then.Neither was it the Vatican per se.Athanasius of Alexandria was the prime mover and yes,his primary goal was the removal of books deemed not “divinely inspired” but being read in churches then.Never heard of any of the discarded books approving same-sex relationship n I’ve made a study of some of them.
Kel
September 13, 19:46Btw,the deutro-canonical books (what u guys call the Roman Catholic Bible) were part of the Bible compiled by the Council of Carthage in the 4th century.Twas the Protestant printers that had them removed n handed down the Bible you know today.

September 13, 06:44Um…I don’t know if the writers of the Bible meant to imply that David and Jonathan were “soulmates” (at least,not in d contemporary meaning of d concept of “soulmates”)…good friends,yea, but I don’t think it was “erotic” love between them…
Dennis Macauley
September 13, 06:46Chestnut a translation actually said “David loved Jonathan with the love of a woman”
I think it’s the living bible or the contemporary english bible, not sure which but I have seen that!

September 13, 07:36Really? “The love of a woman”? Wow! Well that puts a different spin on things,doesn’t it! (I’m embarrassed to admit that I don’t know my Bible as much as I should…*hides face*).
I’m aware that their love was extremely strong…bordering on “unusual” even. Anyways, who can say what really happend back then? All I know is,whenever I think of that story,I always feel those two were very blessed to have such a strong bond/affection. If a ever find a friend (or lover) that loves me with d “Dave-Jon” kinda love,I’d be very grateful for it.

September 13, 08:48That’s it, ‘a translation’ gave it as that. Another translation like the KJV can give something else, synonymous but not quite open to this interpretation.

Metrosexual
September 13, 07:15I quite admire your understanding of the issue here. However, its no point tryna seek a biblical approval for a same-sex relationship, when all it would do is ‘hammer your conscience’ when it comes to such topics….. Also, I dnt see any sexual relationship btw David and Jonathan…. They were close friends (of which some, if not all of us, have such close friends in our lives)…. The bible was just citing examples of “philial love”…… showing us that no matter who we are (as in the story of David and Jonathan) or what we are going through ( as in the story of Ruth and Naomi), there’s always someone who’s got our backs, and is ready to got through it all with us….
Chizzie
September 13, 07:25Common sense should tell anyone that the references listed above were by no means sexual. By soul mates the Bible clearly meant companionship. ..I think the new term for that would be bffs. We all have that one friend who knows everything about us, can guess what we are thinking. ..knows how to cheer us up..advices us wisely. That is companionship. Why do certain gay guys feel the need to sexualize everything, I remember reading dt post and I’m not surprised that its author is behind this too
pinkpanthertb
September 13, 07:30LOL. Oh Chizzie… I think perhaps he was trying to do more of what Max suggested. More of seeking validation for our sexuality from the bible, than actually sexualizing the bible’s content.
In other news, I didn’t get buzzed by you yesterday. Kilode? Or won’t your story get told anymore?
Neon
September 13, 07:35I’m no agnostic… But, I find it hard to sink in everything the Bible teaches. As something that deals with theocratic accounts, critical analysis and verification are almost impossible. As written records, the question of objectivity arises – were these writers able to battle bias and prejudice in presenting ultimate facts (knowing fully well of their values)? Absolutely not! There’s no absolute objectivity. The issue of the hidden books complicates it further… There are missing pieces to this jigsaw puzzle. Until we find answers to these conundrums, religion remains an opaque veil to peer through.

September 13, 08:03@Trystham & Dennis, una sabi book too much abeg. I also believe Christianity is not & cannit be the only route to God for to believe so would be to condemn all non – christians to a fiery hell on the last day (nonsense,ingredients & condiments if you ask me). Chestnut once called me an atheist, am sorry but there’s just so much murkiness and opacity to Christianity, the heavy infusion of human biases & Judeo/Medieval European culture is very clear to see if you will open your mind just a little bit and attempt to cast off your superstitious fears. I strongly feel that the authors of the bible (claiming divine inspiration in order to veil their writings with legitimacy) simply penned down their personal beliefs heavily infused with theor contemporary cultural and world views and by a pure accident of history, Christianity has gained its prominent place today. There are so many books and verses which were deleted from the bible, who did this deletion? and for what purpose? some of the books were found buried in caves, who knows what other books will be found in future, will there be further alterations in the bible?
God in all his loving kindness could not have created me with the intention of hating and comdemning me from birth for a thing I have little or no control over. That assertion in itself explodes the theory of a compassionate and loving God. Everyday I wake up and bless the day I cast off my deep religious guilt! The clarity of mind it brings is deeply unrivalled (think Stalin’s or was it Lenin’s opium of the masses) …

September 13, 08:45LOL@Dennis. Oya close your eyes. Picture a furry cute innocent pink dumb bunny. That’s me. I no sabi anything oh! Biko, I don’t aim to confuse. That said (flips weave), I don’t think bible ever mentioned anything about soulmates or even hinted on it. The idea of soulmates is entirely foreign to the judeochristian religion (I think). The concept presupposes the existence of souls before birth and a union of some sort that happened pre-birth; marriages/unions made in heaven, if you like. When you meet such a person, even if its a baboon, you click instantaneously like you have known each other for all eternity (some believe soulmates keep meeting each other in their many incarnations because they can never be apart).
But again, it could just be a term used to describe a companion who gets you ENTIRELY and with whom you feel completely at home; just a descriptive term for a certain kind of bond. Ahhhhh! (Memories rushing back. Yes oh! I have found my soulmate. Its an AWESOME EXPERIENCE.)

September 13, 11:50Simple answer: there is nowhere in the Bible where there would a tacit endorsement of same-sex relationships. This inference is just a case of seeking validation from something that is a bane of you. You turn words upside down trying to draw meanings that are non-existent. It is almost like a thief praying before stealing, and if by chance succeeds he lauds his supplication.

September 13, 14:15Look idiot, I am as much as gay as you are and I won’t take that back for anything. But the effort of gay people to get validation from places like the Bible is half the problem with being gay. The Bible is against homosexuality, simple and short. Why try to twist out meaning where there is none. The Bible is old and irrelevant, yet people like you try to infer useless meanings from it to validate your sexuality. If you don’t see the ironic stupidity in that, you’re more a fool than biblical bigots. And try to understand what someone is saying before forming a response to it.

I love God. He’s done so much for me even though according to him being gay is a sin. Isn’t that what love is? Seeing the flaws but still sticking with the person.
I do hope that even though khaleesi has given up on religion he hasn’t given up on God. Sometimes in life he’s all you’ve hot left..
And we will never know what was up between david and Jonathan. At least not till the afterlife.. but looking to someone else to validate your actions is a bit unnecessary cause in the one you’re the one who will own those actions. God doesn’t care who you’re attracted to.. he doesnt care if youre a saint or sinner.. He just wants you to come to him.
That’s my opinion on this matter.

YOU ARE NOT GOD and that only presupposes that THERE IS A GOD!!! so who then is he…you don’t even need to read a bible to know that HE MADE THEM WOMAN AND MAN!! and he is LOVE..he loves me so much am amazed someone’s actually living without God’s touch, eyes and protection. Now just because am gay and yes I loooove the cakes that does not make me say HE IS NOT!!! Whaaat…just looking at you would know that a CREATOR MADE THIS YOU!!!! you are so heavenly and creatively made I mean am almost lost for words..khaleesi see how brilliant you write and are and Dennis see how loved and favored you are!!!! You think you got that just by your own creativity??? Am sooo amazed. He loves me so much and am so proud to be called his Child…and pretty pinky love…that man is a MAN OF GOD!!! I never say anything bad about men of God irrespective of what’s going on around them cause they are God’s servants and I respect and love God so I MUST respect his ministers!!! Still love you too!!!

September 14, 19:12The Council of Nicaea was never about compilation of Sacred Writ,but affirming the divinity of Christ.The Bible was first compiled at the Council of Carthage,c.342 AD n has never been edited.No word has been removed or added to the Bible,only translated to various languages for easier understanding.Where are u guys getting these stites from?.Attacking/attempting to de-legitimise the Bible cum Christianity is not n never will be the validation of us.We’re here,have always been here.The rest of the society just have to suck it up n live with us same way WE have to live with them.

September 14, 21:44The bible says “only a fool would say there’s no god “. U need not say he doesn’t exist. U just need to deny him to be a fool.

September 15, 06:08Every time I get to the Ruth and Naomi part, I get a bit uncomfortable. I know what was said, but I’m not sure of any sexual goings-on….. That was her husband’s mother for God’s sake.
But you have a point, there’s a lot in the Bible that we need to take a cursory look at.
