Relationship Question

[CounselorForChrist]

If you believe God told you that this someone is to be your husband/wife, would bad credit - past addictions - criminal history stop you from marrying him/her?

The problem with a question like this is there are two sides to us. The human logical side of us says "Avoid this person!". But the christian side of us says who are we to point fingers when we all sin? All sins are forgiven after all. If we judge someone else for theirs and do not forgive them, then the bible says we will not be forgiven.

With that said If they aren't the person they used to be then I wouldn't see a problem with it. Granted things like bad credit may cause future issues. And of course we have to make sure God told us this for sure. With the women in my past I swore up and down God told me to marry them. Turns out it was my inner voice, like myself or the devil. God voice was there telling me not to marry them but I chose the answer I wanted to here really.

I can't say what God would say to do or not do. Only you know the answer. Do what I did and fast about it. Thats how I determined with my wife is she was the one. For once I got a clear answer with no real issues with false ones. I will say also make sure you equally yolked.

Ultimately you have to go with your own instinct,the problem is though that love is general blind and causes rational people to become irrational.You more than likly know what your going to do so good luck and i hope it works out
