I am 21 and currently dating a 22-year-old non-Christian guy. We've been going out for eight months now and I'm struggling with the decision of whether or not to continue this relationship. He is unwilling to accept Christianity and for that reason, I feel that I should stop seeing him. However, I also think that there might be a chance that God might change his heart in the future. Should I continue this relationship with him?
Since the Bible tells Christians that they are not to be unequally yoked with unbelievers, it's probably not a good idea for you to be dating an unbeliever -- for often dating leads to marriage. The Bible says, "What fellowship can light have with darkness? What does a believer have in common with an unbeliever?"
When a Christian woman marries a non-Christian man, she gives her future children a non-Christian father. Think about it!
Proverbs 3:5-6 says, "Trust in the Lord with all your heart and do not lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge Him, and He will direct your paths."
I'm praying for you. Look to Jesus! Dr. Muriel
