I actually know two people (relatives) whom did that. They aren't Christians and were living together. She really wanted to get married but he didn't. So she nagged him and nagged him year after year month after month about it until finally he blew up and packed up the car and drove her to Las Vegas to a drive-thru wedding stand and got married. Just to make her mad, he dressed up like Elvis but it didn't make her mad because she thought it was funny and was glad to finally be married. Some people are really strange here out West. REALLY strange.


Sixty bucks in Las Vegas. Get married one minute later if you want. License valid for one year.

That reminds me of 'The Taming of the Shrew'.

Ya that's just great, you want to serve money and live the "dream". There is no such thing as financial stability, nor should we desire such things. Hardships conform us to Christ if we have the right mindset and trust in God. Do not worry about what you will eat and what you will wear and serve God. If you have been paying attention to the worldly systems, you will know that the dollar and the global economy is heading towards implosion anyways. If the woman you love, loves God with all her heart, then marry her. If not, well then it's up to you whether you should marry her or not but being with an unbeliever can be incredibly difficult when you want to serve God. It can either teach you to be like and submit to Christ like crazy, or it can simply lead you down the path to destruction and compromise as it did with Solomon and many others.

James 4
13 Come now, you who say, “Today or tomorrow we will go into such and such a town and spend a year there and trade and make a profit”— 14 yet you do not know what tomorrow will bring. What is your life? For you are a mist that appears for a little time and then vanishes. 15 Instead you ought to say, “If the Lord wills, we will live and do this or that.” 16 As it is, you boast in your arrogance. All such boasting is evil. 17 So whoever knows the right thing to do and fails to do it, for him it is sin.

I am married to an unbeliever, it is a very complicated and long story as to why I am with her. The short version: Before I came to Christ, I got intoxicated and slept with her, she did not tell me she was pregnant but instead told a different guy that my son was his. That other guy is the legal father to my child and if I were not with my wife, I would not be able to be in my sons life. It is incredibly difficult to serve and honor God when in such a relationship, yet all things are possible with God.

You should consider her God's daughter at this moment, and you should be her brother in Christ...until she is rightfully yours when married. If you want to take her as your wife, then do that. If not, get your damned hands off of her because she's still your Godly sister.......until that changes. Love ya.

Stop being alone. Only get together in public places. Don't go in the same cars. Basically if you make a point to never put yourself in a situation where anything Can happen then it won't.
If you burn, marry.

i'm sorry but that's terrible advice. If you marry simply because you can hardly resist your sexual feelings for her then the odds are that marriage will not last. to many ppl make the mistake of getting married before they are ready and thats why so many marriages end in divorce or worse. Please be careful of the advice you give because if its bad advice and someone takes it it could ruin their lives

I disagree. It's obviously Biblical advice to marry if you are burning.

But finding someone who will help keep you from 'burning' isn't the only criteria in selecting a spouse. You can choose to marry to keep from 'burning' and then have a really set of criteria for selecting a spouse and trust the Lord to lead you to the write person.

I'm not sure it's possible for water to be cold enough for that to be the case. I mean... I'm just hypothesizing here, but cold water is a stop gap solution.

That might be kind of relaxing after a strenuous workout though.... it's like icing all of your joints and muscles at once. And after you cramp up and drown, then sexual urges will no longer be a problem!

I have a better answer He is called the Holy Spirit or the Holy Ghost and is the reason why Paul, even though seeing the most beautiful women naked and ready, at the false God temples, He never wavered. Why because of the Helper. I can't even drive my car without the Helper. I need Him

Develop your relationship with the Lord spend time in prayers meditating the word of God and allow God to take you in control and not human desire,

God bless!

If it kills you well, problem solved...

And it may cool their urges, but a bunch of shouting guys in swimming trunks may be very attractive to certain CC members, and we don't want to cause a sister to stumble, now do we? [or a brother for that matter] :p

When my girlfriend and I were dating for a number of years, we reached the point where temptation and the urges were there. Both of us were CHRISTIAN. Her dad was the chairman of the deacons and my dad was their pastor. Imagine the scrutiny and talk that would occur if we had not taken each other's hand, and walked to the altar on a Sunday night, both of us making a commitment to GOD and ourselves that we would have something to look forward to on our wedding night. GOD honored it and so did we...and we got married about two years later. Our children now laugh at us and don't believe that we were virgins because this generation expects each partner to already be experienced...'like buying a car, you have to ride in it and try it out before purchasing' is what we were told. Yesteryear, it was "Sir, I would like to ask your permission for your daughter's hand in marriage." Today it is : "Uh, well, see..it's like this...Your daughter and I would like to take our relationship to the next level. So, this weekend, we are moving in with each other."

I love her a lot and truly would like her to be my wife one day, but I just want us to be financially stable. I'm currently finishing up my fitness certification to become a trainer. I'm served time in the military (Honorably Discharged) and trying to finish up my associated degree. I was told due to my background it should be easy for me to get a well paying job at the YMCA.

She works daycare and in college as well. We do not live together. We've had sex a few times but recently I told her I want to stop to respect God, and that I can't live a God fearing life if I turn the other cheek to fall into lust. She understood and said she'll help me maintain control. But today I never felt the urge of wanting her so much, I wanted her really bad and told her I did.

How do I maintain control and a clear mind? I told her I want to marry her and she approves when the moment is right. I need help.
With all respect, if you act naturally you act with God. Materialism has no place in this. You are a victim of sociology. Love = spirituality, if you create a child from love you fulfill spirituality ans materialism, it cant get better.
