Hello family, grace and peace abound to you. I hope we’re all learning and benefiting from the discussion so far. At the end of the discussion, we’ll have a seasoned Minister and Christian Counselor share with us their views also.

Statement on board:
“The fact that it is two Christians👫 in a relationship does not make it a Christian/Godly relationship…”😱

We asked that you share your thoughts on the above 💬 And what you think makes a Christian/Godly relationship..💭

Here are some more of the thoughts and discussions shared…

“Lol, I think essentially it’s a Christian relationship if two Christians are involved. This is because both of them who identify as Christians will in theory subscribe to what a Christian relationship is. I’m guessing, the author is referring to the practice of it. Whereby for the relationship to be existentially godly, the two must in turn practice the precepts of what a Christian relationship should be (Now that is a whole other topic). But in practice we realize not every Christian couple practice a godly relationship.

About what a Godly relationship is: a threefold cord is not easily broken. It’s a relationship centred around God, built on his precepts and directed towards his purpose. I don’t like definitions because they can be vague, abstract and not practical in its compressed form. But practically, a Godly relationship is between a Christian man and woman, and it has laid down requirements for sex and intimacy, etc.”

~ Jerry John Rawlings (Biochemist, Accra, Ghana).

“Not all…Bro Bo as I’m now 3333, I’m confused about church guys… Not everyone we see in church is a Christian. And what I have come to understand it that it’s not the giftings of the person but the anointing of God on that person that makes someone a Christian to me…I’m talking from experience tho🤗

A Godly relationship is when both the guy and the lady have God as their priority and flow together on God’s agenda (like we going for Christian gatherings, seminars to learn, winning souls and others).” ~ Abigail (CEO, Abi’s Corner, Ghana)

“I agree. Because a godly relationship is one that in which the love expressed stems from agape. And one that does not succumb to the ideas that guide secular relationships. A godly relationship has God as the root and center of the relationship.” ~ Kwansima (MPhil Psychology, Legon, Ghana)

“Date someone that you would consider marrying. Choose a person that has a similar desire for God, one that will build you up in your faith. If you are already in a relationship, positively encourage one another in pursuing God. Help your boyfriend or girlfriend to keep God the focus.

Understand that Christians are not to be “unequally yoked” that is, if they are not willing to accept the faith, the relationship might have to be sacrificed. My thoughts though…” ~ Jemima (friend to the ministry, Ghana)
