• Pentecostal Christian Spin on Marriage Part 1

    Filed under: Marriage Tagged as: , ,


    Some young people may think that this topic is only for those who are now engaged to be married, or those who expect to find themselves in that position soon. It is for them, of course, but it is also for all who plan to go through the natural process of engagement and marriage one day, as well as for those who expect to pass these years of their lives in a society of the opposite sex, whether they are ever engaged or not.

    Naturally, however, the emphasis must be upon matters of courting if we want to learn how to marry intelligently in Christ. A great deal of guidance is necessary if young people are going to escape the rocks of grief and disappointment that come when you become one with your spouse. A wise youth will take heed to the suggestions and guidance offered him by those who have passed through and can look back on what he is passing through at present. There’s no substitute for experience.

    The term courtship is not as frequently used as it was in the past, yet we practice courtship daily, only under different names. Courtship is defined as the process of seeking to win another person in marriage. In the usual manner, a young man sets out to win the hand and heart of a young woman who seems to sum up in her own being all the sweetness and virtues of woman-kind and possess them in the superlative degree. When the young woman is found to be a good prospective wife people say he is making a good match. But when it is generally agreed that the young man merely imagines all these fine things, people may remark that love is blind. Yet, blind or open eyed, love makes its way through this world and nearly all of humanity comes to the marriage altar at one time or another.

    Courtship has come in for a lot of joshing, but it is still a fine old custom for Pentecostal marriages and will last until the last man has married the last woman. The choice of a life partner involves more of happiness or sorrow for us than any other choice in our lifetime. Marriage is a life contract. The wedding ring is a token and a symbol of the wedding covenant. It is a token in that it is made of the purest and most precious metal and we are told that the bitterest acids cannot dissolve it, nor the hottest fires change its nature. Through our lives we’re subjected to the bitterest acids of adversity and the severest heat of prosperity, yet the quality of affection may be as the metal of the ring—unchanged.

    True love binds hearts together into a partnership that is enduring and abiding. Every person who really cares for happiness wants his marriage to be a success. Often marriages fail because of that which came before them, the love and courtship of the premarital period. Every lasting relationship must have a sound beginning and a sure foundation on which it can build and rest. Among the bases for true love are common interests, respect for one another, and mutual affection and concern for one another.

  • 5 Simple Rules to Dating

    Filed under: Dating Tagged as: , , ,


    The dating game is not easy. Just like any other games there are rules to follow. One wrong step is sufficient to kick you out of the game. These rules are important as they will maximize your happiness and minimizes the misery that may follow.

    The first rule is to be yourself. Imagine the consequences if your partner founds out that you are actually acting and lying to him all along. If he loves you, he will love you for who you are. Even though first impression matters, if you are only a normal employee, never try to impress the other by telling him that you are a manager. However there is a limit to be yourself, which is to mind your manners. If you are used to bad manners, this is a turn-off for the partner. Get rid of any negative habits and preserve good habits.

    For guys, keep in mind that you should never be late for a date, even if there is a good reason for it. Unless the reason is something unavoidable and important, it is never wise to keep the girls waiting and having to sit alone. Do not check out or flirt with other people while you are dating someone. This is an act of disrespect to your partner and she might head straight towards the door.

    Communication is important to keep the relationship happy and healthy. It is the bridge that connects two people no matter what the ground is. Without communication, the two of you are not connected to each other. Do not assume. Talk with the partner as this will help you to understand him or her better. Keeping quiet is not a good habit.

    The next rule is never date someone who will dump you the day after or someone who is married. The chances are they will break your heart. It is not unusual to date playboys or those who are just fooling around as they are the ones who are almost always attractive. However, do not fall into such traps if you are looking for a long-term relationship and marriage. These dumpers will not be able to give you such commitments.

    As for dating married persons, they are unlikely to leave their wives or husbands for you. This is a way to sufferings as you are more likely to experience heartbreaks, lies, miseries and loss of romance. Always make sure that the other person is single. Even is the person is in the middle of divorce, it is wise not to be with him or her until the divorce is completed. You deserve a better person in your life.

    Last, but not least, do not commit if you are still unsure whether he is the one for you or the two of you are meant to be together forever. Going to bed with him on the first few dates will also tend to ruin everything. It is not a method to keep him, but on the opposite it may be the last time you will see him ever.

    Bear in mind that no matter how easy dating games appear to you, they are not once you start the game. Just remember to avoid anything that can hurt you and while you are in the game, just be yourself.
