The only things God has told me is that He loves me, that I’m one of His, to be patient, to wait upon Him and to pray and ask in Jesus name.

Thank you for saying that using the “God told me...” is manipulative. 👏🏽👏🏽 If God does tell you it will happen and he will confirm it with the other person.

1. Don't ask someone on a date that you've barely talked to 2. Don't treat the other person like an object 3. Don't talk about the future when there is no past 4. Don't tell a Christian that you aren't looking for a non-serious relationship 5. No pick-up lines. Be authentic. 6. Don't bring up marriage with a person that you're not in a serious relationship with. 7. Don't talk about past exes with someone you like unless the time is appropriate. 8. Don't bring up someone you kind of like to someone else you kind of like of the opposite sex. 9. Keep what you feel God may have said about the other person to your heart. Good points! None of these have I ever done which is good, but I need to stay clear myself of points 3 and 5, like too many compliments even though I care to everyone in general, and not getting too excited of what hasn't happened yet, but could and most likely will in Jesus name!

Make a Connection, Build a Foundation, Proceed with a Commitment, Hope for a Future, Be Realistic and Positive.

ouu the first point is very true, especially as Christians. Most Christians won't just go out with just anyone they have to at least know you or know about you

Oh my goodness, you named everything that irritates me about many guys and the “dating game” in 2020. And here I am thinking that maybe I’m being too meticulous about how men are approaching and communicating with me. Turns out that I’m not.

HE beckons me higher Always And HE leads me to climb higher to reach LOVE in HIS name HE never makes me feel inadequate or ashamed... HE is LOVE. We are connected and I am grateful for my place in HIS heart. HE holds me true and will never let me go.

I agree especially number 6.🙂😄 someone told me about marriage last year he ask where i place want to build a family someday he is Christian he said that he likes me but that gives me pressure to think then i ask to God to give me clarification and peace so i ask my family and my friends too then they said it's early think about it, you are still young and you didn't know each other yet and more! And one day i told him that i'm not ready to it even tho he is pursuing God than i do. God is great all the time when i ask Him. He gives what i need and i ask my self did i seek God first before this man? so that gives me hint that i need to seek God first and that's what my heart wants me to do! Thank you Mark for this video! Praise the Lord❤️ May God bless you all, stay blessed and be a blessing!

Very sound advice here, learning all the time. Thanks Mark.

Wow. We did some of these things. Like the talking about our exes, we both talked about marriage and were comfortable with it and I mentioned liking some others, but I was just being completely transparent as it pertained to my past and current love interests and I was just being completely honest with him, cause I didn't want to hide certain things and enter a relationship without mentioning it. And he didn't have a problem with it, he respected my honesty and said it's the past and I've grown so it's ok😂😂, and we didn't have a problem with us talking marriage and our exes. We had recently just met and we talked about those things like 3 days after meeting each other, but we were set up by a friend that thought we'd be good together, so that may have made a difference in our communication and what we were comfortable with, I thinkit did. As u said ur views are subjective though and I do agree with all of them, but I just shared my side, yk. And it's a month and a day since we've known each other now and we're thinking of getting together now, so it depends on the person. But I think ur views are the safe and should be followed. Please pray for us. I asked God that your next video would guide me to knowing if I should date him now or wait, but I'm not sure if it answered it, I'll probably have to rewatch and ask again. But I'm asking for your prayers. And once again, thank you Mark. God bless you.

Thanks a lot! All your points affirms me and on point. it helps me personally and also as I help other young adult in this area of life. God bless your ministry.

You are ON TIME. GODBLESS!

Thank you pastor, I'm learning a lot from u, such a blessing frm God having this minstry of you, God bles you more

THANK YOU for point 9 !!!

That point about the pickup lines really hit me deep

God just answered my prayer. 😱 Scary... 🙏Thank you Mark. 🤗 God bless you.

Great 😊 video Brother Mark!!! Stay Blessed Always!! 🙏🏽🙏🏻🙏🏽❤️❤️❤️‼️‼️‼️

Thank you mark! Greetings from switzerland brother

Wow... yeah being too transparent has cost me relationships. 😑

Thank you brother Mark, very helpful, God bless you

I agree with all of your points👌🏽

Wishing many blessings 🙌🙌and praying for us all👐

#3 chuckling about talking future with no past. Years ago I had a friend who had a list of her future goals with her date to be covered in first date, sometimes a blind date. She was beautiful and wondered why the men ran from her date so fast, so hard. I couldn't change her approach.

Always ...the perfect timing thank god and may god bless you abundantly

Thanks Mark for your video it sure is helping me a lot

Amen! Great advice

Wow, Mark! This video was spot on....

Number 1 really should be a common sense to everyone seriously ^^;;; Well- said here, especially needed for good Christian brothers as a wise tip!

Good stuff!!

Amen. Brother Mark and thank you

Man, I've already done a few of these ... mainly talking about marriage and talking about my ex. It's hard not to, though--it's what everyone's talking about in our singles group at church. It sure is hard not to join in on those conversations! heh heh.

Wow ! Great job on this 😀

I'm currently troubled with a very recent encounter with someone who just came all out with the "God told me..." In just two weeks . It did put me under so much pressure because he would call me four to ten times a day, ping me on WhatsApp n started using pet names to call me. Oh my I rather started seeing this as a red flag. Thanks for this piece.

Great video!!!

This is SPOT ON!

Súper wise! Thank you 😊

This was great Mark. I agree

Excellent video

Number 2... I want to tell this to everyone on Christian dating online app. I don't answer to most of them for those bad pick up lines.

I agree with all of them, especially the last point. A guy used that on me and it didn't sit right with me. But yeah these are all good.

And whatever you do, don't pressure them!

That was solid advice. I try to stay away from the mind-games that the dating life offers. However, "the games" ARE being played by both men and women nowadays and the women are better at "the games" than men. Truth.

That first thing you mentioned was litteraly what I did and it did not succeed. I learned a lesson there. But my goal was also to get to know her, but I see that it is not the way to go.

Wow... So good to see many young ppl looking for a Godly Marriage in future and this gives me great hope when I think about a question " Are there ppl looking for a Godly marriage just like I do" ? And "Yes" I could see the answer. 😍 I thank God for Mark and AGW !! God bless.

Good advice

Whom opens or holds the door open for Heartbreak & Hostility ?.... Psalms 9:18

I am confused on the part where you say that you shouldn't mention marriage at all in your dating profile. Wouldn't it be confusing if you walked into a grocery store and it was forbidden to tell the employees that you were looking for peanut butter? Wouldn't it be confusing if you drove your car to a mechanic and didn't tell them what was wrong with the car? What else are you supposed to do on a dating website than be upfront about what you're looking for? Obviously you can't have a serious talk about marriage in your first message, but it would seem kind of pointless to talk to people you might potentially want to marry if you don't know that they are interested in the same thing. I made dating profiles on several websites, including a Christian one, and my opening messages usually contained the points: 1. I want to get married. 2. I want to get to know you better. Mostly this approach only worked with foreign women. Are you sure this approach is not good because it is actually a bad idea, or does it only not work because our culture is degenerate? Personally I think if a woman will not answer frankly that she is open to being married sometime in the next couple years when a man approaches her on this subject, then she is not worthy of being married. In a similar way, if you are at the grocery store and can't find what you want, and then you reject an employee who offers to help you, then you do not deserve to have what you want.

Thankyouuuu so muchhhh

The building a connection is great in theory but for me I've been friend zoned everytime. I don't believe in that kind of thing anymore. Ends up wasting everyone's time.

Agree with ALL!! But, #4 happens way too often...it clearly shows that this person is NOT truly a Christian but, only trying to use another person who IS a Christian...

🕊️🌫️God is love

Is it really possible to find or be blessed with a Christian spouse? I feel so hopeless about it

Yes agreed 1:57 and 2:35

What comes out of the mouth comes from the heart. Everything starts in the heart. James 3

It’s #9 for me 🥴 Listen up ppl! 🗣😂

Should only date if you are tryna get married. Other wise just be friends

Dating or finding a relationship requires a lot of money. If you know you're poor, is it the right thing to do by taking yourself out of searching for a partner on that reason alone? It's expensive and you don't want to lead that person on knowing it can't become serious due to the lack of finances. The purpose is to lead into marriage, then children can become involved and that will make them suffer more because of you. Is that the right thing to do since you don't want to lead the person on and have them suffer unnecessarily? I feel drained at times because of this thought.

I have been dealing with a little bit of a broken heart I tell every guy who likes me I tell them I am not ready to date right now and I am working on my relationship with God and right now I don't know when I will be ready to date

Question, if a guy in our first real interaction said I looked beautiful, is that a problem?

I like this because it helps christian to non immortality way to get married.

Can you make a video on hebrews 6:4 Im very scared..

I would never let a woman feel like an object.

Time stamps please.

If only ik this....my crush and I just started university....we were Christian's never party and all....but then she asked me whether I was looking for a relationship and she admitted she liked me but her dad does not allow her to go out 😭😭😭I was so heartbroken.....but she gave me hope when she said let's start as friends....

YESSSSS!!! 🙌

Not sure if anyone else gets this question, but the "Why are you single?" I have gotten that question sooooo many times from men and I sincerely STILL don't know how to answer that question. Mind you, I get asked this question in our initial conversation, when I barely know the person. It just seems like a question we can get to once I know you better... Ya know? Just my thoughts 🤷🏾‍♀️

How do I talk to God and how do I listen or can understand what he has to say ?

Don't do online dating.Rather meet people irl,because most of the people pretend online.

How to assess when God has sent the right person for you ?

And depending on how you voted, sends folks running the other way.

What do I do if I shared a little too much about myself on the first day I actually talked to a guy i like? Like, some of my deepest secrets... I had opened up thinking that we might date and so I felt like I needed to be honest about who I am and all. But after that when we talked for a few days i realized that I actually don't know this guy and even if I knew, it was all based on what i thought he was like. So my attatchment toward him is not really based on reality. Now i feel insecure and regret it a little that i shared some things about myself way before i had a proper friendship / connection with this guy.

Amen ❤️❤️❤️🙏

What if you are divorced and have a kid? Guys usually ask on the first day or before. How would I not talk about my ex in that situation?

I don't see the problem if I said to someone; God told me you're my future wife or husband. it only become a manipulation only if the person is lying. When the servant of Abraham met Rebecca, and after when Rebecca brought them to the her place, did not the servant of Abraham told all the people and Rebecca, what God is doing? Is that a manipulation ? I personally told my girl; God said you are the one in my life , and everything i told her fulfilled with time.

It’s funny that this came up because I was thinking about talking to the new, cute seminary guy at my church tomorrow 😂 he’s probably in a relationship, but I won’t know unless I talk to him 🤷🏼‍♀️

Yes

Women want you to ask them on a date, you can ask a stranger out on a date. What people forget, is that going on a date is not starting a relationship, a date is to get to know somebody to see if you want to continue dating this person, to see if they qualify both of your eachothers needs and desire in a partner to then become boyfriend and girlfriend.

Still... I have no confidence...

What is the probability for a Christian girl to date a not so religious guy? But he is well mannered and plays his cards right.

Mhm

doesnt sound christian to me

Song of Solomon

But there is no available person I like. Unless? 👀 What do you have in store for me God? Are you preparing me? I'll remember these points, that's for sure. (Also I feel personally attacked by number 1 lol)

What if he calls you sexy? is that objectifying?

Women are always in the better place, because when a man makes the first move to ask, he can be rejected. It's always easier to sit back and let them come to you first.

In short: Don't speak to a Christian single.

If a christian girl or boy is so goddamn perfect that you need to walk around on your toes, he/she ain't worth it. Don't play fake for anyone. Be yourself. Nuff said

I've pretty much encountered all of these ...🫤
