Christian Dating: How to Date by God’s Rules
First, be true to your convictions. Discuss your convictions, standards, boundaries and goals with the one you are intending to date. Find out where they stand on issues, and let your positions be crystal clear. Then agree to help and be accountable to each other to honor God through your relationship.
Secondly, follow God’s guidance through faith and prayer. If everything else seems right, but you can not find God’s peace about a relationship, break it off. It is better to suffer the heartache of a breakup earlier than later.
Next, make sure you are reading in God’s word every day. His words will order your footsteps and light your path.
Finally, make a commitment to maintain a standard of purity. Whether you are a young inexperienced person or a seasoned widower, God has expectations of your relationship regardless of your past. (If you want a good book on the subject see the Purity Principle.)
Just remember that it is so important to get the relationship started right. That is half the battle. If you get started right, and stay right, the chances are you will marry and have a life of joy and blessing. Please determine to have God’s blessings by dating the way God intended.
We recommend ChristianCafe…a dating site for Christians run by Christians who love the Lord.
