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 lawlessness? what communion has light with darkness?15 What concord has Christ with Belial? What portion has a believer with an unbeliever?
33 Do not deceive yourselves. Evil companions ruin good morals.
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 from immorality. Every other sin that a man commits lies outside the body, but the immoral man sins against his own body.19 Do you not know that your body is a sanctuary of the Holy Spirit who is within you, the Spirit whom you have from God?20 You are not your own; for you have been bought with a price, therefore glorify God in your bodies.
13 "Food is meant for the stomach, and the stomach for food"? Yes, but God will soon put an end both to the one and to the other. The body, however, exists not for immorality, but for the Lord, and the Lord for the body;
9 If, however, they are not exercising self-control, by all means let them marry; for marriage is better than the fever of passion.
4 Let marriage be held in honor by all, and the marriage bed be undefiled; for fornicators and adulterers will God 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 Over them all bind on love, which is the girdle of completeness.
