| no good man sorry it says in the bible to not bewith someone who is not equally yolked because it promises that it will not work and will be a temptation. So idk how far into it you are but you should try and end it and if you havent started yet, then dont. Either way i wish you luck |

| i agree!! the bible says that we are not supose to be unequally yoked, so if you start your relationship with someone who is not a christian what are you going to do if he refuses to become a christian? in my opinion i would want to wait and if that was the person God wanted you to get married that he would convict that person to become a christian and in the meantime to try to be a good christian example that they can see God's light in you. |

Ok so here is my view point on it.
The only reason to date a person is if you can see yourself possibly marrying them, because that is the only reason for dating. If you wind up marrying a non-Christian, you are asking for mucho amounts of trouble. Because they don't have the same morals and values that you do as a Christian.
And if you are doing it in hopes that while doing that, you can help them become a Christian. That's no good either. Missionary dating is a no no. I've always usedd this example, if you are standing up, trying to help someone up, it is so much easier for them to pull you down than for you to pull them up... |

Blessed is the man who perseveres under trial, because when he has stood the test, he will recieve the crown of life that God has promised to those who love him.

| ok firstly, as for dating a non christian, and you're a christian. i wouldn't suggest it, unless, like hosea (i think it's him in the bible) who was told to marry a prostitute to show israel an example of how God is with them (Hosea kept accepting her back, and she kept cheating on him) and God has it in His will for you to be with that person, mostlikely, actually more often than not, it's gonna be hell going out with them, cuz they dont have the same standards and wont get why you do/believe what you do, and it just causes more friction. |

Turn up the music
Turn it up loud
Take a few chances
Let it all out
'Cause you won't regret it
Lookin' back from where you have been
'Cause it's not who you knew
And it's not what you did
It's how you live

God Bless!

i've dated a nonChristian, and they just don't have the same expectations. they want to get more physical, i want to keep it sweet. they want to have a quick fling, and i want a lasting relationship. I believe in God, he didn't even care. and in the end, since i care about God so much, its impossible for me to like someone that doesn't even care about something that i care about soo much, it shows that he cannot love me. so why bother?
plus the bible says dont' date guys that dont' share your faith. |
