TOP 4 DATING MISTAKES      
 
How to have great  relationships with the opposite sex
******************
Mistake #1.
Playing the "dating game"
Now days it is very popular to have multiple
relationships and go out on lots of dates

There are lots of kids that want to start dating at 10 or 11

This is way to early to start dating.


The purpose of dating should be to find your life companion,
not just run around with someone you think is cool or neat.

I know, it might sound a bit old fashioned but the truth is God
is a bit old fashioned in this area.

He has someone very special for you, and the odds are you
won't connect by just in the "playing the dating game"

The purpose of dating should always be
to find the mate God has for you.

How can this possibly happen when you are 10,11 or
even 13, 14 years old.
**************


Mistake #2
Becoming physically intimate before marriage

There is story after story after story in the Bible about the
terrible consequences of pre-maritial sex

It does not matter if you are young or old. You will pay a
price for this activity
***************
The story of Samson in the Bible
is a great example. You can read the whole sordid story
of what his sexual messing around did to him. 

all about it.

*************

Sex outside of marriage is strictly forbidden in the Bible

Here a couple of Bible verse that tells it just like it is.

"Then each of you will control his own body and live in
holiness and honor not in lustful passion like the
pagans who do not know God and his ways".
1 Thess 4:3 

"Run from sexual sin! No other sin so clearly affects the
body as this one does. For sexual immorality is a sin against
your own body" 1 Corinthians 6:18 NLT

God's will is for you to be holy,
so stay away from all sexual sin.

**************
The book of Proverbs in the Bible will tell you all the bad
things that will happen to you if you indulge in it
************


Mistake # 3
Not getting to know the other person

When you are infatuated you feel that every
thing is wonderful.

This is the most fabulous person in the world

You see everything through "rose colored glasses"

but the reality is that unless you take time and get counsel
about your relationship from others like your parents,
your pastor, etc,  you may be heading for a 
great disappointment.


What you see is not always what you will get

Here is another example from the story of Samson about
letting "Love" get in the way of what was best for him

"Some time later Samson fell in love with a woman
named Delilah, who lived 
in the valley of Sorek.

The rulers of the Philistines went to her and said,
"Entice Samson to tell you what makes him so strong
and how he can be overpowered and tied up securely.  
Then each of us will give you 1,100 pieces of silver."
Judges 16:4:5 


I know this is a very dramatic illustration of deception,
however there is a lesson here for all of us.

GO SLOW AND GET TO KNOW THE OTHER PERSON
*****************

Mistake # 4
When you don't seek Godly and wise counsel

"A wise man will hear and increase learning, And a man of understanding will attain wise counsel", Proverbs 1:5 

Get all the advice and instruction you can,
so you will be wise the rest of your life.Proverb 1:1 


Where there is no counsel, the people fall; But in the multitude of counselors there is safety. Proverbs 11:14 

*********************
It has been said very wisely that 
"Love is Blind"

You can ruin your life by being involved and having a
marriage or relationship with the wrong person.

That is why I have talked very straight in this message.
It is very serious business.

I know the message may seem a bit harsh but it is intended
o be really straight forward about this dating and sex stuff.
************
God has perfect partner for you.

He loves you and wants to give you a great life.

Take your time, wait on God


"Take delight in the LORD, and he will give you your heart's desires".
Psalm 37:3-5 

"But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness,
and all these things shall be added to you". Matthew 6:33 


God has a perfect plan for your life, don't go messing it
up by getting hooked up with the wrong person.
​It is not worth it.

Let God bring the right person into your life!
You will be glad you did
