DATING (Part I) BYG Purity Series

The PREFACE.

“It’s so meant to be…”

“We’re different than other couples…”

“We’re a perfect match!”

“It’s so harmless…”

He/She knows me… and accepts me…

Dating in the Bible? There is no evidence of dating in the Bible.

 Adam and Eve (Genesis 2)  Isaac and Rebecca (Genesis 24)  Jacob and Rachel (Genesis 29) God has ONE mate for you. He is the King of Love Stories.

 He is the best author of love stories.  He is the best matchmaker. But the way we meet this mate, is in His hands. Can you trust Him ?

Song 2:7 Daughters of Jerusalem, I charge you by the gazelles and by the does of the field: Do not arouse or awaken love until it so desires.

Examples of men/women in the Bible that could not trust God in this area.  King David – Bathesheba (2 Samuel 11)  King Solomon- 700 wives, 300 concubines (1 Kings 11)  “Nevertheless, Solomon held fast to them in love…”  “As Solomon grew old, his wives turned his heart after other gods, and his heart was not fully devoted to the Lord his God….”

Casual DatingTODAY  Has no intention of marriage.  Has all the wrong motives  Sex  Popularity  Curiosity  Emotional fulfillment  Fun Romans 12:2 Do not conform any longer to the pattern of this world,but be transformed by therenewing of your mind. Then youwill be able to test and approvewhat God’s will is — his good,pleasing and perfect will.

The Harm of Casual Dating  Mistreat souls.  Practice of Divorce.  Waste time.  Open doors to sexual sins.  Trashing your own Love Story.  Increases your baggage.

1Thessalonians 4:1 Finally, brothers, we instructed you how to live in order to please God, as in fact you are living. Now we ask you and urge you in the Lord Jesus to do this more and more. 2 For you know what instructions we gave you by the authority of the Lord Jesus. 3 It is God’s will that you should be sanctified: that you should avoid sexual immorality; 4 that each of you should learn to control his own body in a way that is holy and honorable, 5 not in passionate lust like the heathen, who do not know God; 6 and that in this matter no one should wrong his brother or take advantage of him. The Lord will punish men for all such sins, as we have already told you and warned you. 7 For God did not call us to be impure, but to live a holy life. 8 Therefore, he who rejects this instruction does not reject man but God, who gives you his Holy Spirit.
