Guten morgen dear one, grace and peace abound to you.
I hope you’re enjoying the discussion so far. At the end of it all, we’ll have a seasoned Minister and Christian Counselor share with us their thoughts also.
Statement on board:
“The fact that it is two Christians👫 in a relationship does not make it a Christian/Godly relationship…” 😱We ask 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…
“True, I agree with the statement. What is done in the relationship is what will tell if a relationship being godly or not.” ~ Adu Nti (Biological Scientist, Kumasi Ghana)
“I most certainly agree. Two Christians having sex in their relationship cannot qualify it as a Godly one. A Godly relationship is one where God is the centre of it all. He literally guides and controls affairs within it. Such relationships aren’t toxic. And at all times, what they do is aimed at glorifying His name.
And oh, within such relationships, you should not make God jealous because trust me, He is extremely jealous😂
Oh sometimes I’m like, ‘oh God you don’t try kraaa. Ah, mighty God like you and you’re jealous of my beloved…’🤣🤣 its amazing.” ~ Laurinda (Lawyer, Accra, Ghana).

“Well, I think the statement is true… it really doesn’t. The relationship I believe, becomes Godly provided it meets the standards of God (the Dos and Don’ts). You see, as the book of Galatians says, the fruits we are required to bear include both love and self-control.
The common sins in relationships are usually sex related. So as Christians, God expects us to exercise self-control in our relationships, think about the things of God and live right. I believe when that is done, the relationship will be Godly.”
~ Caleb Cogic (College of Engineering, KNUST)

“I agree, you can both be Christians but if the relationship is not according to God’s word its not godly standard.
To answer the question of what makes a Christian relationship, first the relationship should draw you closer to God and not away from Him, secondly, no sinful acts like fornication is involved.”
~ Esther (Pediatric Nurse, KATH, Ghana).

Dating isn’t really in the Bible (unless you include the Song of Songs before they get married). In the olden Biblical days they used to have arranged marriages between families. Serial dating to find someone to marry isn’t really Biblical. We only need to marry one person, which means we should only date one person, and not leave a string of broken relationships behind when we get married…
True. The fruits of the Spirit should be apparent in every godly relationship. Great topic. Thanks for sharing!
