Namoro
O namoro cristão deve ser vivido com sabedoria, pureza e propósito. A Bíblia orienta sobre escolher um cônjuge, guardar o coração e honrar a Deus em todo relacionamento.
Guardar o coração
Sobre tudo o que se deve guardar, guarda o teu coração, porque dele procedem as fontes da vida. O namoro exige vigilância e sabedoria.
14 Be not unequally yoked with unbelievers; for what fellowship has righteousness with unrighteousness? and what communion has light with darkness?15 what concord has Christ with Belial? or what portion has a believer with an unbeliever?
33 Be not deceived: evil communications corrupt good manners.
Pureza e santidade
O corpo é templo do Espírito Santo. A Bíblia nos chama a fugir da imoralidade e esperar no amor com paciência e respeito mútuo.
18 Flee uncleanness. Every sin which a man commits, is without the body: but he who commits uncleanness, sins against his own body.19 What! do you not know that your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit, who is in you, whom you have from God?20 Besides, you are not your own; for you are bought with a price: therefore, with your body glorify God.
13 Meats for the belly, and the belly for meats; however, God will destroy both it and them. Now, the body was not made for uncleanness, but for the Lord, and the Lord for the body:
9 Yet, if they can not live continently, let them marry; for it is better to marry than to be in pain.
4 Let marriage be honorable among all, and the bed unpolluted; for fornicators and adulterers God will judge.
A esposa prudente vem do Senhor
Deus criou o homem e a mulher para completarem-se. A casa e os bens são herança dos pais, mas a esposa prudente vem do Senhor.
14 And over all these put on love, which is a bond of perfection.
