Don't Be Alone Together
by Joshua Thomas Crisp
(Cirencester, Gloucerstire, England)
That is different from being together in a place with other people you don't know in a public place like a park or a cafe. Being alone together for example, in a room in either one of your homes can corrupt a man's (and woman's) thoughts. Imagine on your wedding day, being alone for the first time, how wonderful that will be.
Also being alone in your car with your date can as well direct the relationship in an ungodly direction, you're both contained in a small space, although you may not say anything ungodly let alone do anything ungodly, temptation can easily spring up.
For example, you're dropping off your date, but before the date leaves, you begin to kiss, it is in the evening (even in the day time) and you've both had fun together that day out and the psychology kicks in, remember as Christians we are still fighting against ourselves in that we are still able to sin.
If your going to meet your date and you have to travel together, catch a bus, train or taxi there and back, or maybe get a lift with a friend or a family member. This would also allow your time together to be restricted, which will work out for the better in the long run, emotionally and spiritually.
And DO NOT sleep over at each others homes! Doing so can easily lead to sexual sin, it is not if it happens, it is simply a matter of time.
