Apostolics answer please, other types of christians can answer also

My sis likes this 33-year-old and she is 22. Our parents told us not to talk to him anymore when he asked her out becuase they didn’t like that way he “approached her”.., he continued to talk and she the same. They begin talking for almost a year and have strong feelings for each other. But I am worried about her that she’ll go too far and sleep with him (I am the same age) we don’t believe in premarital sex. I’m scared her emotions will take the best of her he has two kids (one a 14 year old, the other a 8 year old girl) by 2 different women when he was in his early twenties and been to jail in this early twenties. What I am afraid of is that they will become to close and eventually have sex. They kissed one time and it was very passionate she described it. Our parents don’t even know that they are talking this much. He thinks she’s “the one” and wants to settle down and eventually marry her. They are both going for their bachelors, she in biology him in communications. My sis is eventually going to go to pharmacy school after she graduates. We are apostolic. We still live at home fyi. They met at school and he lives on campus. Will it work?…it just doesn’t seem right to me, he believes in god (his not apostolic, I don’t think he is into denominations) in all that jazz and he is trying to be more ‘christian’ becuase of her. He is into the rastafarian thing..but he is not into the religion. Just the ‘blackness’ of it. Are parents have no clue what he looks like, they never met, all they know is his age and that he’s black. What do you think?

Answer #1

Religion aside, here are my takes on your sister and her ‘boyfriend’.

Your sister–She’s lying your parents–and has involved you in deceit as well because she wants this relationship. You already know this is leading to heartache for the family. Regardless of her choices you need to speak the truth to her AND your parents. Hopefully they will be able to talk sense into her before she ends up living like the others who fell for the classic lines– “you’re the one” and “if you love me you’d prove it”. (Christian girls are easy prey for this trash talkj because they don’t understand deception, or grasp the concept that “If he loved you he wouldn’t ask”.)

The boyfriend–Don’t call this 33-year-old loser ‘boy’. He has fathered two (2!) children 14 and 8 out of wedlock. He’s obviously not committed to either of his children’s mothers. In fact he’s not committed to his daughter or son but left both of them without a dad.

The fact that he’s living on campus playing at being a decade younger than his age rather than devote himself to giving his children a father speaks volumes about his values.

Whatever faith he professes, the way he’s living his life today is contemptible. So he goes to church. So he once was even worse than this. That doesn’t make him worthy of respect or trust.

Any man who really loves a woman will be up front about his feelings for her with her family. The last thing an honorable man would want his lady to do is to lie about their relationship to the ones she loves. The fact that what she’s doing that and it seems to be OK with him, tells me he’s Bad News easily willing to use your sister for his purposes than a ‘Keeper’.

Awesome Answer… Grandma Cee Cee…

rlhtsvm - I am a Christian, and I agree totally with what free2 said. I am going to invite another young Christian girl to come and give her testimony, on this post.

She has just been taken for a ride, by a young man exactly like the one you are describing.

He left her high and dry, with a child. Her father is a preacher. Do you see the irony of this?? Satan killed two birds with one stone, by knocking her off of her perch of purity, and bringing her down to his level, and also, of trying to interrupt the flow of the gospel, by bringing heartache to her father, so that it would interfere with his preaching.

Well… Praise God… prayer stopped him. He made inroads, but, he was not allowed to destroy.

Another young girl, turns up… he sold her the same bill of goods, she too, is carrying his baby.

Now, he has brought down two young virgins. Leaving them both high and dry, with a child. While they are yet, children, themselves.

Now, we have two more children in this world that are going to have to grow up with fathers.

Who is winning? God or the devil?

She is making her choices.. now… and we have to live with what we choose.

We are taught to make good decisions…

Now, tell me, is she making a good choice???

Pain and heartache, are behind her, and in front of her.

And for the family too, as they hurt, when one of their own hurts.

If you can pray and fast, and get this broken off, you will be doing your sister a great favor.

Here are some prayer links, where you can post requests, as often as you like.

God be with you.

Answer #3

OMG, why do you people live like this? If there was a god, why would he want you to live in fear of sex? If they have been talking for a year, and they really care about each, why in the wolrd would it be wrong for them to show that love to each other.

Absolutely pathetic…

Answer #4

I’m not apastolic, but I am a Christian. Have you tried talking to her? What has she said to you? I know the best answer for this kind of thing is prayer. Another question, has he really straitened his act up, or is he just making it look that way?

You can also tell her to look up these verses: Hebrews 13:4 1 Thess 4:3-4 Mark 7:20-22 1 Cor 6:19-20 2 Tim 2:21

or you can write them on index cards and leave them in strategic places if you don’t feel comfortable talking to her yourself. I would encourage her to be honest with your parents. She is after all an adult.

Also, as a side note: Marrying someone much older than you isn’t bad, but she needs to understand the consequences of having kids that age as step children and be prepared for it if she does want to get married. If your looking for more info you can fun mail me. I have been there.

Answer #5

I keep waiting for the “what would jesus do” thing that you talk about to kick in for some of you guys but all I ever read is condemnation, judgement and eternal hellfire.

and you wonder why people don’t want to be preached “at” or listen to you witness.

heaven forbid that someone meets an “older” man with two children, talks to him for a year, kisses him once…
