7 THINGS YOU MUST NEVER DO IN COURTSHIP
Bisi Adewale
- Don’t neglect God in your courtship: Avoid whatever you cannot do in Jesus name. Don’t do whatever you cannot do in the presence of brethren behind the closed doors.
- Don’t pretend in courtship: Be yourself; let your partner know the real you. Pretence is a dangerous game.
- Don’t double date: As a Christian, you cannot be involved in two relationships at a time. ‘Extra tyre’ syndrome is not permitted among the children of God.
- Avoid secret courtship: Your pastor should give his consent before you start courting, just as your friends, family members and relations should be in the know. Both parents must also bless the courtship. If you are not matured enough to go into an open courtship, then don’t go into it. Courtship should not be a secret affair.
- Don’t start to wear the same attire: It is wrong to do so.
- Sisters should not turn themselves to cooks or launderer. You are not expected to go and cook for the brother or help him to wash his clothes. If you visit him; let him treat you as a guest (that is what you are). If he visits you, you can entertain him but never go to his house to cook for him. Also, avoid taking food to his house because you are not married yet.
- Never cohabitate: It is wrong to be living together before wedding; it is unholy and annoys God. If you must live together, then get married.
