Very True...



However, read the post it is concerning friendships between man and woman. As to dating which so many do on these Christian sites. This is about the Standard Christians should have when pursueing a mate.



We should always witness about Jesus to unbelievers when we can.

I'm not sure I 100% agree with what was said on the radio station. I mean, at least they allow for friendships as some of the really brutally strict Christian "experts" do not, haha. I think somewhere between friends and betrothal, there has to be something. I don't want to use the word "antiquated" for courting, because I don't think there's anything wrong with it, and "antiquated" does not always mean "not applicable" or "bad" or anything like that, and "modern" is not always better, but in many ways it is an antiquated concept and dating is not necessarily bad. I think Christian dating should be halfway between. As Christians, when we date, we should of course keep our hearts, minds, and bodies guarded. But at the same time, the population today is much MUCH higher than it used to be, so options aren't quite as limited as they were when people were actually still doing the courting thing. When options are limited, courting makes more sense. However, with such a high population, busy lifestyles, and most women working, it takes more time to get to know someone than it used to, and the first person you get to know might not be the right one. As far as I'm concerned, I need to know I like him BEFORE he starts coming around my family and my home!
