WHAT DOES THE BIBLE SAY ABOUT ... CHOOSING A MATE?

To understand how God feels about this subject, we must examine The Bible.

Bible Titus 2: 3-5 Likewise, teach the older women to be reverent in the way they live, not to be slanderers or addicted to much wine, but to teach what is good.
Then they can train the younger women to love their husbands and children,
to be self-controlled and pure, to be busy at home, to be kind, and to be subject to their husbands, so that no one will malign the word of God.

Genesis 2: 18 And the LORD God said, It is not good that the man should be alone; I will make him an help meet for him.


Choosing a mate is a decision that should be made carefully, prayerfully, and very seriously. The Lord wants to bring a mate to those who will ask Him and have the patience to wait for His choice. Looking for a man or woman to just keep them from being lonely or just to fill their needs or to be a father or mother to their children should not be the only reasons for desiring a mate. They also need to be concerned about what kind of husband or wife they would be for a mate. These single people are still much in the flesh if they just want their own needs met. They should ask the Lord to fill them with His love and peace.

Being single is an important time to prepare us for marriage. It can also be a time to experience a closer communion with God. As we seek God to cleanse us of the world and help us become the kind of wife or husband that would bless someone, we will soon find that we are not lonely.

Chapter 6



1: Dare any of you, having a matter against another, go to law before the unjust, and not before the saints?

2: Do ye not know that the saints shall judge the world? and if the world shall be judged by you, are ye unworthy to judge the smallest matters?

3: Know ye not that we shall judge angels? how much more things that pertain to this life?

4: If then ye have judgments of things pertaining to this life, set them to judge who are least esteemed in thechurch.

5: I speak to your shame. Is it so, that there is not a wise man among you? no, not one that shall be able to judge between his brethren?

6: But brother goeth to law with brother, and that before the unbelievers.

7: Now therefore there is utterly a fault among you, because ye go to law one with another. Why do ye not rather take wrong? why do ye not rather suffer yourselves to be defrauded?

8: Nay, ye do wrong, and defraud, and that your brethren.

9: Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind,

10: Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God.

11: And such were some of you: but ye are washed, but ye are sanctified, but ye are justified in the name of the Lord Jesus, and by the Spirit of our God.

12: All things are lawful unto me, but all things are not expedient: all things are lawful for me, but I will not be brought under the power of any.

13: Meats for the belly, and the belly for meats: but God shall destroy both it and them. Now the body is not for fornication, but for theLord; and the Lord for the body.

14: And God hath both raised up the Lord, and will also raise up us by his own power.

15: Know ye not that your bodies are the members of Christ? shall I then take the members of Christ, and make them the members of an harlot? God forbid.

16: What? know ye not that he which is joined to an harlot is one body? for two, saith he, shall be one flesh.
Gen 2:24 Matt 19:5Mark 10:7Eph 5:31

17: But he that is joined unto the Lord is one spirit.

18: Flee fornication. Every sin that a man doeth is without the body; but he that committeth fornication sinneth against his own body.

19: What? know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost which is in you, which ye have of God, and ye are not your own?

20: For ye are bought with a price: therefore glorify God in your body, and in your spirit, which are God's.
1 Corinthians 7
