How do you make the decision to come out of Eden to find a mate? If you are clearly in the presence of God, why would you leave God’s presence to go to the world for a mate? After God made them in His image and after His likeness, God THEN created them male and female. God took the male and the first thing He did was put Him in Eden-which was an environment of God’s presence. The first thing that you should be looking for in a mate is not how good of a person they are or if they love you, but do they love God’s presence. If you do not love God’s presence you will never be the person that you were commissioned by the Father to be. How can you cultivate, nurture and bring to fruition someone who does not love your Father? Why would you be with someone that the Father doesn’t know as His own?

I believe that is why the apostle Paul warned Christains about being unequally yoked.
2 Corinthians 6:14 Do not be bound together with unbelievers; for what partnership have righteousness and lawlessness, or what fellowship has light with darkness?

Everything within the quotes -I- TOTALLY agree with.
(Everything else, -I'm- DEEPLY-PONDERING.)

Yes.
A Christian should NEVER marry (by this -I- mean spirit-bond with a non-Christian.)
(However, if it's already been done -marriage 'spirit-bond'-, it's already been done -for 'thier lives'.)
I'm SO thankful to have married a Christian, myself.
(CHRISTIANS are likely to see truth -when presented truth-, and 'though there MAY be problems-and-or-doubts', these problems CAN and WILL, -I feel- be resolved, one day.)
