Relationships By Design - Brian Pickerel

What does Biblical dating look like?

Why date? Why do people date?

If I am too young for marriage am I too young for dating?

Why is the world’s way of dating wrong?

1.It is tempting.

1 Cor. 6:18

Flee sexual immorality don’t fight it.

A.It presupposes that a certain amount of kissing & touching are acceptable outside of marriage as long as you don’t go too far.

1 Cor. 7:1-3

“You will never find David dancing after his wife Bathseba. Not he; there was not a dance in him after that! He limped to the day of his death.” – C.H. Spurgeon

2.It confuses lust & strong emotions with Biblical love.

1 Cor. 13:4-6

3.It trains young people to take male-female relationships lightly.

Eph. 5:24-25

What am I supposed to do?

1.Protect your heart.

Proverbs 4:22-27

2.Pursue Christ

1 Peter 1:13-16
