Are You Dating The Right One? 10 Things To Consider - a podcast by Perry Noble

Episode Summary

Perry teaches through these 10 things to consider to see if you are dating the right one:

1. They are not willing to fight for purity.

2. If they are trying to get me to compromise what God’s word says so clearly.

3. If you are always defending him/her to the people who know you, love you and love Jesus.

4. If you find yourself not wanting to talk about him/her in front of the people in your life that you KNOW may disapprove of the relationship for some reason.

5. If you know the relationships isn’t really going anywhere but you don’t want to break up because doing so would cause you to be insecure because you have allowed yourself to be identified by who you are dating rather than who you are in Christ.

6. You find out they are lying to you.

7. If you cannot confront them about issues without them losing their temper.

8. If you discover they are unfaithful to you.

9. If something about them drives you insane but you convince yourself that after you get married, that problem will go away.

10. If the Lord has specifically spoken to you and instructed you to end the relationship because you can’t or you won’t because you don’t want to hurt them or fear that if you end the relationship then you won’t have a chance at another one.
