Christian dating rooms

[Humbledmac]

One of the things that disagree with is Christian Match-making chat rooms. What do you think about it?

 

[london boy]

I can't speak from experience about such sites, but some Christians have great difficulty meeting the right person and therefore, use such sites to find a potential partner - If people find true love on such sites, what's so bad about that? Isn't that whole point?

 

[Humbledmac]

There is nothing wrong with finding love, but aren't we supposed to rely on God to reveal the "One" (sound like the Matrix)? those websites are used for finding the perfect match to your specification. But doesn't God know what's best for us? I mean, we are Human. we make mistakes

 

[london boy]

I don't think that searching for what we want is wrong - of course only God knows who's right for us. There are so many people out there who could be right for us. Once we meet that person, we will receive God's blessing to marry them if that's His will for our life. How we meet them doesn't matter so much. God brings people together in many ways, just like He brings people to faith in many ways

Amen! i completely agree!

If you use such sites for 'easy' dates then its bad. If you just want to meet people it can be a good thing.

 

[Heiroglyph]

Sorry but I have to disagree autumnleaf. How do you know what kind of person you like if you have no experience with any of them? You should go out on some dates so that you feel a little comfortable doing it. I hate it when you ask someone to go on a date and they take it like " will you marry me" and say no. Going on a date is relatively harmless and could be fun.

Isn't e-harmony a supposed Chrisian dating sight? I know they don't say that explicitly though.

I wish I could know for sure that if I was to go on a christian chatline that i would be safe. I really wish that i had a boyfriend. But some people seem to be getting it wrong that they think i am not putting God first or that I should rely on God. I know i am supposed to rely and trust in God that he will get me a good guy if it's his will but for some reason it doesn't take away the feeling of needing or wanting one I would like that physical affection like a hug. But a hug from a guy seems to be so different cause you feel secured and protected. Can someone please give me some supporting advise or advice on what I should do and what i should do to keep myself safe? thanx all in advance!

Just realize that the "21 year old Christian guy" you're talking to may wind up to be this guy.

There are stalkers who go to church and Christian chatrooms in search of pootang. Sad but true.

I would rather meet somebody face to face to know them personally than on the internet!

 

[winglovesall]

Yes - me too -- same agreement -- but you know, sometimes he/she may not be a Christian but he/she has joined into the Christian Dating Room and chat to you --

I don't completely agree with it -- but it's good to have a few friends that you can trust though and you have to look inside their personality and what they say.

'Easy' dates? Thimk about it. You're right though its good to go on dates. You just have to go on dates with the right people.

'


I agree

 

[renaistre]

I'm neutral. I think it really all depends on the individuals using them. I wouldn't really feel comfortable with using one myself at this point, but I also know a great Christian couple that got married last year after meeting on eHarmony.

It used to be until Warren advertised on secular channels. Then he let other religions in there which I have a problem with.

And then I stopped going to Christian chat rooms all together because there are a lot of people who do not have it--and that mean many have mental or problems of commitment or people who are not all there. Now many of you would say that the church has those people also, however, it is worse online because people can play games and at my age,(46) I'm not up to playing them.

 

[winglovesall]

Yes, I agree.

You don't know them and so, trust becomes an issue. Because he/she may be lying to you all the way through and you may not know.

He or she may not be a Christian and only has indeed joined into the Dating room only to chat. It is important to look inside of their hearts, character, and personality and what they say!

 

[winglovesall]

Sure that's right - my friend!

You can certainly look inside through a person online and although it can be hard to interpret and come up with a conclusion -- at least you have some idea of what that person is.

I agree. you can't learn a person's true Characteristics or mannerism over a computer
