When you trust God and follow His word, you can have the most amazing marriage, filled with joy and blessing, that challenges you to be who God made you to be, that people wanna have.
He is very clear in His Word that Christians and non-Christians, or the luke-warm should not date.
I’ve seen so many people base their relationship decisions off impulsive feeling instead of the word of God. And they end up destroying themselves spiritually or in a bad marriage.
You can’t date people in order to change them because your name isn’t Jesus, you’re just teaching them Christians compromise.
Are they passionate about Jesus, His church, serving others?
Are they gossips, selfish?
And God has someone amazing for you, don’t settle for a crumb off the floor when He’s called you to feast.
Sex is a great thing God made it and blessed it and the church is not against sex.
The church is for sex, so much so that it is passionately opposed to anything that tries to destroy sex from being the best it can possibly be. That’s why the church is for sex in the context of a secure relationship in which people can reach the heights of love, pleasure, security, sacrifice and selflessness. That’s why sex outside of marriage destroys what God had in mind.
What was supposed to be done as an evidence of commitment, is now done in place of commitment and why get married if you already get what you want. What was supposed to provide security, now provides insecurity because you never know when they’ll leave or change. What was supposed to provide long lasting pleasure now provides short time pleasure, that rips people’s hearts apart because it hurts a lot more when you break up after sex, because you leave a part of yourself. What was supposed to be sacrificial, morphs into you just getting your needs met. Sex is great, but the people in the church need to reclaim it for what it’s supposed to be.
Does this relationship encourage purity?
God bought us with a price, and when we have sex outside of marriage we shout to the world, God’s way isn’t best, we’re sinning against God’s indwelling Holy Spirit which lives inside of us. Men she’s the bosses daughter and we’re defaming His name.
No matter what you’ve done in your past, if you confess, God forgives and He’ll bring beauty from the ashes.
The reason the enemy tells you these lies about just give in, your already married, marriage is overrated, is because He’s seen what God wants for your life. He’s seen your purpose. God wants to change the world through you, to start a revivial through your life. He wants your marriage to be amazing, and the enemy’s trying to destroy it before it starts.
