How can any Jesus-rejecter have higher morals than a Christian?
We do find non believers with higher morals than some Christians.
But also recognise that her moral behaviour is an expression of God's principles already within her, although not recognised by her as such. Where else would good moral values derive from?

What does God and The Bible have to say about dating non believers?
Thanks.
Please pray for my friend, she is a non believer. Thanks.
Thanks everyone, you all have been very helpful. I am still praying to God about this situation, please continue to uphold me in your prayers.
My opinion about my friend, who is an unbeliever, is that she has good moral values, she is a good person, she is very beautiful, she is intelligent, her personality and mine are very matching for each other etc.. She is like the perfect girl for me, the only "hindering" thing is that she is an unbeliever, but from what I know (as in from knowing her), its because she never really heard about Jesus Christ and God before. I mean, in the sense that no one actually really brought her to Church and shared The Good News to her etc. So wouldn't it be fine if I introduced her to God and Jesus Christ?
And, I have known other girls who are Christians, some of them have not so good moral values etc.. even though its not right for me to judge. I am meaning it in the sense that my current friend/girlfriend who is a non believer has better moral values than those who are Christians.
What are your views? Thanks!
Please continue to pray for me, and that God would send the right girl for me. Thanks

Don't go into a relationship thinking you can change someone.<snip>
Sure,
Does this make sense?

My wife was raised by "Jehovah Witnesses". (Ohh, that really burns me up, but who understands that... lol. Besides God, of course.)
Anyway, she was an "unbeliever". Or so she claimed. She was not.
Do not judge people by the surface appearance - including the words they say, or seem to be saying - the Lord is beyond such things. He is beyond - well beyond - the semantics of your own context.
Trust God. Anyway, Paul said specifically unbelievers are sanctified because of the believer when speaking of this issue.
Believe it.
Brian JESUS made it very clear to us as HE ascended up to heaven:
GO FORTH UNTO THE ENTIRE WORLD AND PREACE THE GOSPEL
He did not tell us to judge others for the good or the bad. HE did not tell us to only preach to CHRISTIANS.
Do you not think this is the correct answer to your question?

I disagree. What love does is hope and believe. If one can believe one can "change" someone. One can.
Why is this difficult to believe.
I know, I know. The world says otherwise.
That's why the weeds the Devil get planted are burned up.
Tend to agree here. I remember some years back I was working in a certain place and I knew a young man who was really on fire for the Lord. He began dating a girl who was not a believer (whom I also worked closely with) and I was glad. I naively thought that he was so on fire that he was bound to influence her with his faith. Regrettably, it turned out right the opposite. She seemed to influence him instead to the point he was not living for the Lord at all. They married and their marriage failed as well. They divorced within about 2 years. I don't know if he ever got back on track with the Lord or not.People take part in "missionary dating" which is what you're talking about. 9/10 times it doesn't work and just hurts both people in the relationship. The rare instance where it doesn't work is the unbeliever accepts Christ and the relationship works out. Personally I wouldn't recommend going this route. If you like someone that isn't a christian....be a good friend to them and shine your light in whatever way possible and see if they accept Him into their lives. It would make your relationship that much stronger.
That's my 2 cents coming from someone who has dated multiple non christian girls and having all of them end badly. Hope it helps
