11 THINGS YOU MUST NEVER DO WHILE PREPARING FOR MARRIAGE

1. Don’t neglect God :. Avoid whatever you cannot do in Jesus name. Don’t do whatever you can not do in the presence of brethren behind closed doors.

2. Don’t pretend in courtship: Be yourself; let your partner know the real you. Pretence is a dangerous game.

3. Don’t double date: As a Christian, you cannot be involved in two relationships at a time. ‘Extra tyre’ syndrome is not permitted among the children of God.

4. Avoid secret relationships: Your pastor should give his consent before you start courting, just as your friends, family members and relations should be in the know. Both parents must also bless the courtship. If you are not mature enough to go into an open courtship, then don’t go into it. Courtship should not be a secret affair.

5. Don’t start to wear the same attire while in a relationship with your partner. It is wrong..

6. Ladies should not turn themselves into cooks or launderers.

7. Never cohabitate. It is wrong to be living together before wedding; it is unholy and annoys God. If you must live together, then get married.

8. Don’t be untruthful with your partner: Never tell your partner what is not true. Don’t say you are what you are not. Be truthful and faithful.

9. Don’t court without focus. Let your courtship be focused. Determined when you are likely to get married from the beginning, otherwise, it may lead you into trouble of fornication.

10. Don’t start having sex in courtship. “Marriage is honourable among all and bed undefiled, but fornicators and adulterers, God will judge”. Hebrews 13:4. Sex is not for those in courtship. It is the conjugal right of married couples.

Sex before wedding is known as fornication, which comes with dire consequences. It separates you from God and exposes you to unwanted pregnancy, sexually transmitted infections, hurried marriage, wrong marriage, abortion, single parenthood and destruction of one’s destiny, among others.

Never have sex in courtship; even if your wedding is just a few hours away. Wait and obey God. SEX IN COURTSHIP IS A SIN. Do not endanger your life.

11. Don’t start pecking, kissing, fondling, hugging, etc in courtship. It is for the married.
