Many Christian young people do not understand why they are warned not to date non-Christians. The reason is this: dating often leads to engagement and marriage.
You may not realize it but Satan is quite a matchmaker. He loves to mess up the lives of Christian young people by getting them married to the wrong persons. He does this by encouraging them to date non-Christians.
Most Christian young people don’t see anything wrong with dating non-Christians. Remember a pitfall is a concealed trap. You don’t see the danger of it until you fall into it, and then it’s too late.
Remember this, if a girl marries a man who is not a Christian will be joined together for life with one which is a child of devil, and for the rest of her life she will have Satan for her father in-law. The Christian who says “I have no intention of marrying an unbeliever but I think it’s all right dating one” is overlooking the fact that every such date has the potential of a disastrous life-long relationship. Someone has well said, “Any Christian foolish enough to date an unbeliever is foolish enough to marry one” even if the dating does not lead to marriage, it causes problems. Spending time with the wrong person is opening you up to an emotional involvement that will not be easy to get out of. Once you have given your heart and emotions to someone, it is difficult to take them back, even when you know you should.
How to avoid this pitfall: don’t date non-Christians. If you don’t date unbelievers, you won’t marry one.
