I was doing some surfing and I ran across this site for
Christian Bikers. It promotes dating for Christian Bikers. It also has some
pretty good links as well. I don`t know much about this website but it seems to
be focused in the right direction, as I surfed through it. I have heard about
Christian singles sites that don`t exactly measure up to Christian principles—so—this
is not a direct endorsement of the site—I simply wanted to share it with my
readers. The site is ChristianBikerDating.com for those who would like to check
it out.
I`m certainly no match maker, I have been legally married twice
and call myself married to my current bride (we wear wedding bands as well). We
found that the financial penalties of “legal” marriage would hurt our funding
for college (what a shame, huh?) so we plan to officially tie-the-knot in the
future.
I remember having a Christian Brother look down his nose at
me when I explained this to him. He said, “You should obey God and get married.”
I told him that we were every bit married in the eyes of God as anyone—we just
don`t have a paper from the state saying so. I figure it like this: I was
legally married twice and cheated on both my wives living as a heathen. It`s a
bit late to worry about following the laws of Moses (laughing). I know God put
this beautiful woman in my life, and I will be with her until the day I die. She
knows it, I know it, and God knows it—that`s all that matters. Since I was
saved I`m no longer a “whore-dog” so I figure I`m headed in the right
direction.
Why am I sharing all this? I know my brothers and sisters in
the wind. Many of you are just like me. You used to party, drink, fight, and
have sex with whomever whenever. Christ came into your lives and everything was
changed. Some of us were already single. Some of us had to divorce our spouses
because they would not change. The Church often gives a conflicting message to
believers about divorce. Now that I am in Christ, I will not divorce unless
there is infidelity, abuse, or abandonment as the bible says. I do believe it
is wrong to divorce for convenience even though I did it twice. I think once
you are divorced and saved that the Church should not judge that. But once
saved—we have to behave different and try to work things out. Like I said—I`m
the example of what you don`t do so don`t think I`m an expert (laughing).
In 2 Corinthians 6:14 Paul writes, “Do not be bound together
with unbelievers; for what partnership have righteousness and lawlessness, or
what fellowship has light with darkness?” I believe that we should find
like-minded wives and husbands as we walk our new lives in Christ. Paul also
tells us not to burn with lust or passion—it is better to get married (1
Corinthians 7:9).
So, I hope this will help a few of my brothers and sisters
in the wind find that special Christian someone that God has awaiting you. God
bless. WP
