キリスト教 質問

Here is my "dilemma"...

I'm a Catholic Christian girl, who is practically in 愛 with a boy at my school. Oh, did I mention he's Muslim? Is there anything wrong with that? Like, I know that Christians and Muslims don't really get it on together, but I really like him. Does my religon say anything against this? I'm just wondering.

I think that's absolutely beautiful! あなた can't help who あなた love. Personal opinion says try dating, and see if あなた two can work out your religious differences together.

However, I do know that some Christians have a problem with cross-faith relationships. That's not just Catholics and Muslims, but also any Christian in a relationship with a Jew, Hindu, Buddhist, または even Atheist. Sometimes, Christians have issues with inter-denominational relationships (like a Catholic dating a Protestant, または even a Methodist dating a Baptist).

I won't be any help because I do not know what the Bible says on these sort of relationships. If it helps, I do know the Muslims have deep respect for "People of the Book," which includes Christians.

But I understand your concerns. あなた have romantic feelings, but あなた don't want to betray your faith. It's a very interesting and loaded 質問 you've asked here. And despite all I know about religion, I don't feel quite qualified to answer this, especially because my bias is 表示中 through. I believe that 愛 is 愛 is love, and so long as あなた can make it work, it doesn't matter who あなた fall in 愛 with. But, like I said, that's personal opinion.

I think it also depends on how conservative a Christian あなた are. もっと見る conservative Christians are at least skeptical, if not disapproving, of cross-faith relationships. But I also know several who make it work. So long as あなた don't mind if he keeps his religion, and he doesn't mind if あなた keep yours. Cross-faith relationships can sometimes be considered "OK" if one または the other converts.

How devout is this boy in his Muslim beliefs? How devout are あなた in yours? Forgetting other people, would it bother you, in the long run, that he's Muslim and not Christian? Would it bother him that you're Christian and not Muslim? These are important questions, because if it does, your relationship probably won't work out. But if neither of あなた care about that too much, then it may be a good relationship.

Well, we did go out, but our religion never really had an effect in our relationship, and I'm not all that bothered that he belives different things than me, it was just a thing I was wondering. Would othe rpeople frown upon it, even though I don't nessicarily mind? Thanks for your input :)

I've known a couple other Christian girls who were worried because they had non-Christian boyfriends. So you're certainly not alone in your "dilemma". And the fact that you're concerned about this shows that あなた want to make sure you're living in a way that pleases God. That's a very good thing. :-)

I'm not a relationship expert によって any means, but here's what I think about it.

あなた mentioned that "Christians and Muslims don't really get it on together." While that might be true to some extent, the fact that he's Muslim shouldn't hinder あなた from being a friend to him または 表示中 him love. God's 愛 is for EVERYONE, regardless of who they are, where they come from または what they believe. "Shunning the unbelievers" is something that a cult does...NOT what we do. If あなた two like being together and if あなた "rub off" on each other in good ways, that's awesome. Don't let differing 閲覧数 destroy something good. "As iron sharpens iron, so a friend sharpens a friend." --Proverbs 27:17

Having 発言しました that, it's extremely important to be wise in these situations and use all the discernment the Holy Spirit gives you. If you're truly in 愛 with this guy and want to take things to a deeper level, caution is strongly advised. If あなた aren't careful, this relationship could cause あなた to stumble in your walk with God.

2 Corinthians 6:14 says,"Do not be yoked together with unbelievers." That doesn't mean that relationships with people of other faiths are sinful, per say, または that あなた should never fall in 愛 with a non-believer...but it's usually not smart, either. There's a reason why "missionary dating" is generally discouraged.

Imagine あなた are standing on a chair, and the Muslim boy あなた 愛 is standing on the ground. Which would be easier? Pulling him up, または being pulled down によって him? That's how it often is in a Christian/non-Christian 愛 relationship. My dad's seen it time and time again. Things may seem alright at first, but as time goes on, your differing paths to God could either tear the relationship in two, または it could cause あなた to be pulled away from Him. ("Could" being the key word, here. Relationships like these aren't ALWAYS doomed to fail, lol. If あなた make it work, もっと見る power to ya.)

God doesn't want to lose you. He loves あなた so much, and He wants あなた to 愛 Him back and find joy in everything あなた do. If あなた nurture your relationship with Him and get to truly know Him, you'll find that He's better than any boyfriend あなた could ever find. ^__^ I highly suggest that あなた plan a "date" with Him sometime and talk to Him about it. He's knows exactly what's in your heart. Ask Him how to handle your feelings and which direction あなた should take. Be sure to really listen to Him and stay in tune with those little "nudges" the Holy Spirit gives you. When you're following the アドバイス of the Ultimate Matchmaker, there's no way あなた could go wrong. ;-)

(Wow. I really ramble a lot...)

Thank you! I mean, I know that I should 愛 him and Him all at the same time, it's just kind of confusing.

Yeah, it sure can be. It's hard to balance relationships sometimes. Just remember...as long as God takes first place in your heart, everything else will fall into just the right places. I know it's not always easy to trust Him when it comes to romantic stuff, but He really does know what He's doing. Just remember that He has everything figured out and that He wants あなた to have the very best. When あなた take time to really think about how much He loves you, trusting Him doesn't feel /quite/ so scary. ^__^

If あなた 愛 him, than be with him. If it doesn’t bother either of you, then don’t worry, especially don’t worry about what other people think. When the 日 is done, we all believe in God.
