Christian Dating Conduct
Oct 13th, 2008 by Roger Brandt
Seeking to date in a Christian environment can add a challenge to your personal walk with God. Seek out the scriptures and learn how to conduct yourself according to the Bible teachings.
When Christian singles find someone they like there is a tendency to spend too much time with each other right off the bat. It is better to go slow build the relationship with communication on the phone and an occasional date. This keep the interest focused on getting to know each others core values and beliefs.
Don’t go alone on a date. Go with another couple or several couples. This will help you to keep the resolve on limits you have established more easily.
As you continue to walk with God you need to remember he is always watching when no one else is. As you keep Him at your side you will be less tempted to have intimate physical contact until you are married.
God never abandons us and He is a jealous God He needs to be first before everyone in our hearts.
Ask God to bring someone into your life that has the same beliefs and values you have. Your relationship will be stronger in His way and you won’t be as susceptible to the peer pressure of people you are around.
As you date those who are of the same faith you will be strengthened and encouraged to hold to your core values. You will lift each other up and work together to build a strong Godly relationship. If you are unequally yoked together with a non-Christian you provide yourself as an easier target for the adversary to build a wedge between you and God. A non-Christian partner will come nearer working against your beliefs without the understanding of why you hold God as your Lord and Master.
You will want to be sure the person you might be interested in meeting has the same values you do. A safe way to meet people that believe the same way you do is to use a Christian dating site. This way you can go as slow as you need to so you can feel comfortable about them before you accept a date. You can find out what their beliefs, interests, and hobbies are to see if you feel like there is some compatibility between you.
