Why 'that' picture?
Posted : 26 Dec, 2012 12:15 PM

I come to a 'Christian' dating site seeking a woman to marry who loves God and when I get here I have to fend my eyes off, not only terrible ungodly ads but your picture with your top mostly exposed and the assault of your body shape tempting men, who have indwelling sin, to think things that I ought not to about you.



Praise God for every woman who chose not to put up 'that' picture or any for that matter. Did Isaac ever see his wife before marrying? Did Rebecca get a pic from the Servant before agreeing to marry Isaac? No.



The racy and revealing photos here only do one thing to truly godly men and that is cause them to scroll faster to the next profile. A woman who is fishing with her 'looks' will catch someone who is just 'looking'.



A little modesty goes a long way.



In Jesus Name

It's nice to hear a man say that. As a woman it's frustrating to see women, even "Christian" women put up such provocative photos on a faith based site, it makes us look like hypocrites.

A woman can dress stylish and yet remain modest.



Stlye does not make a woman ungodly. A woman finds a level of worth in felling good about her appearance. Their is nothing wrong as long as God is still her greatest strength.



To make out that makeup or dressing nicely is somehow wrong that is only your opinion.



The bible tells that women should not let the adorning be mearly outward. The bible does not dissaprove of women dressing in a stylish way. Sorry this is your prejudice here.

"Praise God for every woman who chose not to put up 'that' picture or any for that matter. Did Isaac ever see his wife before marrying? Did Rebecca get a pic from the Servant before agreeing to marry Isaac? No."



so they didn't get to see each other before getting married and because of that you would rather not see your potential wife?

hmm i agree with you on "those pics" but i would like to see my future wife before i marry her tyvm.

ColtsGuru, agreed.



letthismind2, I believe you may not have heard my words as they were intended. I said nothing against dressing stylish. My friend Jim has a wife who dresses exceptionally well and is a very attractive woman naturally but doesn't dress in a way that provokes the 'sin' within. I agree, a woman can and should utilize style without being drab and dull.



NRSV1953, absolutely. Those scammers know exactly what buttons to push and unfortunately it is difficult for a free site to have adequate measures in place to thwart such garbage.



CuriousGeorge, Taking a bride site unseen is not for everyone for sure. I can understand your desire to see yours first and please understand that I am not condemning anyone who does. I do not place image above anything else as I may be overlooking a great treasure within.

It's actually proven that men's brains really are wired different than women's. They are visual, and their minds capture images. And even the most godly married man will struggle when a provocatively dressed woman walks by because it only takes a second for their mind to capture that image. This doesn't excuse the in obviously, but women don't understand the struggle and the stumbling block they can be to men when they're dressing inappropriately. It doesn't even have to be immodest for it to be a stumbling block, it's not always what women wear but how they wear it. God created a man's mind to be visual and to capture images, but he was only ever supposed to see his wife in that manner and therefore only images of his wife would pop up in his head. This world is broken and corrupted and they took something that God created to be good and made it evil.



I will be blunt about the whole seeing your spouse before marriage........Marriage involves sex. And I need to be physically attracted to someone to have sex with them. I believe that God knows your heart and when He's providing you a mate, you'll be physically attracted to them. Not being physically attracted to someone doesn't make you a bad person, you can't help what your eye finds appealing. However, kudos if you can refrain from seeing someone for that long.

While that's true, women are not the exact opposite of men. You only need to look to the success of "Magic Mike" in theaters or Taylor Lautner's career in general to see that women can also be quite visual.

I find a womens sent quite appealing and distracting also. I was shopping for a wedding band the other day for my self and the woman behind the counter was both beautiful and smelled great.



So I had to get out of there and went directly and told my feincee about it. My commitment to her is greater than my appeal of a unknown woman.



We men have relied on physical appearence to bring arousel to us for far to long. Men do you know that arousel can be acheived with a close intimate relationship even by phone?



I have discovered the love for a woman is the love for a woman and this love endures.



The lust for a woman is the lust for a woman and this love is temporary and quickly fades to grey.



When a man truly learns what love for a woman is then he will not need to view her naked body to determine if she is enough. He will love her and find arousel by her because he is sucessful in loving her.

Are you serious? A good looking, great smelling woman sends you into a frienzy and you can't shop for a wedding ring? Sounds to me like you aren't ready for marriage. I could understand if she was coming on to you or something, but simply being there is sad that you can't control yourself. If my fiance came and told me he had to leave a shop because a good looking woman smelled good, I'd really start questioning whether or not he could be trusted if something that small was an issue. What happens if you travel and go to a pool or beach?

US...its good to know what's n ur mind....women of their kind...wud not be worth of ur time and attention... its good also that they don't have the same mora/ spirituall standard as urs.....but we can't let other people act and think like what we do and believe...

people's actions depend on what kind of religious/ moral stance they hold..
