Dating & Courtship Gist: HOW DO YOU TEST LOVE?

 *WHEN THINGS ARE SMOOTH WITH YOU EVERYONE CAN CLAIM TO SAY THEY LOVE YOU!*

Hence, it's vital to subject every love to test to determine their authenticity.

*HOW DO YOU TEST LOVE?*

1. Subject it to the test of sacrifice.


Sacrifice is the ultimate test of love. 


Sacrifice means to deny yourself of something, to let go of something valuable.


 How much is the person willing to sacrifice for you? 


Can he or she deny himself or herself of something valuable for your sake? 


When you are not able to provide for her financially as a result of being broke, will the love still be there?


When you lose your job, will she still be there for you? 


When you are down in health, will the love still be there?


THE TEST OF LOVE: 

*[test of sacrifice]*


When he asks you for sex and you decline because you believe in no sex till marriage, will he still continue with you? 


When you find yourself in a very difficult situation, can he or she be there for you unconditionally, especially when they have the ability and capacity to help?


2. *THE TEST OF LOVE;

*[The test of time]*


Time is a revealed; time brings things to light]


He says he loves you with all his heart, you are his morning star, sunshine, sugar in the tea, butter in the bread and his one and only woman, there's no problem. 

Give it time.


🔲••She says she loves you, you are her world and you mean everything to her. Without you she cannot live nor survive. You are her oxygen and life-force. There is no problem. 

Give it time.



 "No mask can be worn forever. Give people time. Their mask will fall; Stay loving them, but be alert coz marriage is a lifetime contract."


Don't rush things. Give it time. Time is a revealer. 


_Time will *reveal** if the love is real or not, with time you will come to know if the person is saying the truth or lying. Love perseveres and love is long-suffering._

Marriage Series 7: What Does The Bible Say About Divorce and Remarriage?

WHAT DOES THE BIBLE SAY ABOUT DIVORCE AND REMARRIAGE? First of all, no matter what view one takes on the issue of divorce, it is important to remember Malachi 2:16, “I hate divorce, says the LORD God of Israel.” According to the Bible, marriage is a lifetime commitment. “So they are no longer two, but one. Therefore what God has joined together, let man not separate” (Matthew 19:6). God realizes, though, that, since marriages involve two sinful human beings, divorces are going to occur. In the Old Testament, He laid down some laws in order to protect the rights of divorcées, especially women ( Deuteronomy 24:1–4).  Jesus pointed out that these laws were given because of the hardness of people’s hearts, not because such laws were God’s desire (Matthew 19:8). The controversy over whether divorce and remarriage is allowed according to the Bible revolves primarily around Jesus’ words in Matthew 5:32 and 19:9 . The phrase “ except for marital unfaithfulness” is the only thing in Script...
