Hello, I am a newly Christian woman.

[HumbleWife]

Hello, my name is Penelope. My husband does not permit me to give my last name or too much personal information out to strangers, so as to prevent me from being identified to any men; as his wife I submit to his authority, as well as agree with his reasoning .

As a young woman of 20, I knew nothing of God, and had not come under the protection of Jesus Christ, my Lord and savior . I was in college, and was all sorts of filthy. I was an active feminist, indulged in many despicable and disgusting carnal pleasures which I will not name here, wore the garb of a harlot, and was generally under the influence of Satan .

However, at my university I met a young man who showed me the way of Jesus Christ, my Lord and savior. At first I was angered and disgusted by the things he said to me, but through his infinite tact and wisdom, as well as the mercy of Jesus Christ, I realized the error of my ways, and came to accept his message .

Just over a year ago, this wonderful man and I married, and I am now wife to the most wonderful husband God could have given me to . He is my way of repenting for all the disgusting sins I have committed throughout my life. Before marriage, I unenrolled from college, which was the environment which had pushed me into my most heinous sins; an idea which my husband approved of. I swore to obey him in my marriage oaths, and obey him I shall; thus shall the disgusting pleasures of Satan be replaced with the pleasure which I bring my husband in my obedience, the pleasure which I bring God through my obedience, and the pleasure which I derive for myself from my obedience . The last item on that list, pleasure for myself, is not something that is important or significant at all, and is merely a byproduct of the former two items, not a goal in and of itself.

Due to my former status as filthy scum, new to God's way of life, my husband and I agreed that I was to be placed under severe restrictions so as to temper my obedience. My husband decided yesterday that it would be good for me to have controlled and supervised access to the internet. Upon marriage, I stopped using the internet due to the sins it can lead me into; and it was one of the things in which I was restricted. However, my husband believes that it would be good for me to have limited communication on sites which he has approved; this being among them. This is so that I can learn from others as well as share knowledge with others as to how to better follow Christ. Do not worry, he has any passwords to my accounts, my full computer usage history (through the use of a keylogger, which I highly recommend all husbands to install on the computers of their wives and daughters), and the ability to control what information is available to me.

And that concludes my story. As a woman, I am imperfect and prone to mistakes, which I am duly punished for by my husband ; and due to my former actions, I am even lesser than the other Christian women who I will meet on this website.

My favorite Bible verse is "Therefore as the church is subject unto Christ, so let the wives be to their own husbands in every thing" (Ephesians 5:24). It is a constant reminder as to all the sins I have committed, and through the first weeks of marriage, in which I was new to the Christian relationship between man and wife, I kept it always in my mind to remind me that this drastic lifestyle change was for the better. Today my only hope is that despite my disgusting past, I may join Jesus Christ in Heaven, where I may serve and obey my husband for eternity .

I look forward to speaking with you all in my stay here, and patiently await the day when I will give birth to children who will serve Christ.

Re: Hello, I am a newly Christian woman.

Welcome, Penelope! That was a good introduction for a woman. What church do you go to?

Re: Hello, I am a newly Christian woman.

I go to New Hope Baptist Church - my husband does not wish for me to give out my precise location, as even non-Christians may access information on this site and they might find and tempt me, and as a woman I am very vulnerable to such temptations.

The college I went to, like most colleges, was very liberal and led me to much sin, but one result of it is that I am very well-read and educated, which is why I was able to write such a good introduction. Perhaps it is a part of God's plan, as my education allows me to write so well. It is a sin, to be sure, for a woman to be so well-educated, since education does not allow a woman to better serve her husband and do daily labor, and even fosters disobedience. However, my husband has told me that I may attempt to atone for this sin through obedience, by only using my knowledge to serve him and God better, and this is my consolation.

Re: Hello, I am a newly Christian woman.

Is your Church the one in Athens or in New Hope?

I am also curious why you are awake using the computer at 4:40 in the moning.
