TMre is nothing wrong with living with the op posite sex, it’s what usually happens when you live with her far him that is a sin. And most of us don’t have the will power or the desire not to commit that tin. J ■ f | iX : , • ■ . The main purpose ,of living with someone seems to be “...getting to know that person better.’’ No re lationship is ever going to be perfect We are usually willing to accept the rose but not the thorns. When a flower blooms it usually has to fed the sting of a bee and so as our relation ships bloom with the op posite sex, so we will have to fed the sting of adjust ing to the other’s faults and Finding that special someone is not by inspec tion but by trusting of one’s God and heart. If you have ever read “In His Steps,” you may have already thought, “Would Jesus, if he lived today, live with a woman if he wasn’t mar ried to her?’’ There is no judgement in -these statements. They are just through ts conceived: after reading the Bibie sod thinking over situations for the past as years. As the saying goes “I have skele tons in my closet also,” but I just wanted to give an other opinion on living with a boyfriend or girlfriend. Not once during the time I listened to the radio sta tion was God ever men tioned. If He comes first in a relationship there win be less doubt and more trust and love between the pair.
