Christian dating a Muslim

Maybe you're a Christian, maybe not. But judging by your previous posts, I get the distinct impression that you haven't read the Bible. We're talking the very basics of the Christian faith here.

you know, i appreciate you because you didnt come in here attacking me, telling me im going to hell and going to be beaten by my boyfriend.

i will NOT convert to muslim tradition, and i have already expressed this to him bluntly. and he has also expressed to me that he will not convert to christian tradition. no way would i EVER convert to his religion. i dont mean that rudely towards my boyfriend, i just strongly believe in christianty. i do understand that there are assumptions of this, but rest assured that i will always remain CHRISTIAN.

my boyfriend is understanding, and wont try to convert me or pressure me into anything. the whole point of this thread was to see if:
1. i could eat halal, so i can bond with him and his family
2. i would be allowed to date a muslim, according to christianty


the only reason im "arguing" (for lack of a better word) with other people is because ive been (in a round about way) told in here that im not a true christian. other people shouldnt be judging my beliefs. i wanted to feel safe, so i joined this website in order to get help from others, but some people are just... mean.

yes, youre right. i havent read the bible, nor have i been baptized. i openly admit BOTH of those things here. my family are christians, and we believe we dont have to go to church in order to show god we love him. we dont need to go into a building with a group of people to show our loyalty. if i werent a christian, i wouldnt call myself one. if i werent a christian, i wouldnt be on this website.

god is not hateful, he is loving, kind and caring towards everyone. he created everyone equally, and there is not one person he loves over another

No-one is attacking you. And no-one has told you that you're going to Hell. And that you may be beaten by your boyfriend, while sounding like an extreme example, is a very possible reality based on many, many Muslim relationships. You do realise Jesus stands for truth, don't you? And truth is often divisive.

Did you not read the first page....?

May God have mercy on you ..and I hope allah don't decide to make you a slave

Well, if you call yourself a Christian, it's important that you start reading God's Word so you learn more about Him and His nature. Otherwise, how will you know if you're worshipping the right God and that you're doing what He wants? You're right in saying that you don't have to attend church in order to show God you love Him. But it's very important to worship with other believers, to worship regularly and in community. It doesn't have to be in a building. And yes, I've read the first page. No-one suggested you were going to Hell. And as for calling yourself a Christan, I hope that's true. But I've met plenty of people who call themselves Christians aren't Christians. So get stuck into God's Word. I suggest starting at the Book of Genesis (it's at the very beginning).

what is wrong with you? you dont know the relationship between me and god. and i have NOTHING to do with allah.

No,dating a Muslim or any other faith outside the Christian faith is wrong. The Bible says not to be unequally yoked together.If you are truly a Christian walking with the Lord and want to please Him you would not be dating a Muslim. Muslim belief is not Christian belief,period. If you want to please the Lord you will not continue in the relationship,if you want to please yourself you will continue it. But down the road you will live to regret it. Sorry,thats not the answer you're wanting but that is the plain truth. Its up to you whether you will obey the Lord or not.

i thank you for the suggestions on worshipping with others, and for reading the bible.

as for the other thing, i am a christian, and i know it. maybe i havent read the bible or gotten baptized. but i also know my relationship between me and god, and i know thats its true.

what do you mean when you say i will regret it?

Most people date as a kind of...test run ...if you will...to see if the person who they've chosen to date will eventually be husband or wife material. Do you have any thoughts of marrying this man? If so, this could cause a major conflict when you guys start to have children. If not, then why date someone who you see no potential future with?

It is not a judgment, just a question.

You are disobeying the Lord. I will not say it will send you to hell but Ive seen many women make this mistake and felt like they were in hell. God will not bless this relationship. And you children in the future? Will they be Christian or Muslim? Dating is not marriage. Once you are married many things will come to light. Issues of what he believes compared to what you believe. Muslim and Christianity do not compliment each other in any way. You will regret it if you continue.God takes His hand of blessing and protection off us if we continue to go our own way.

Emphatically not, the Christian God and Muslim God are not the same. The Muslim god is a false god,influenced by satan. There is no comparison whatsoever.

Sist... i kinda know how you feel.. believe me or not i was like you before.. few years ago i love (i think it was love before.. lol) someone who isnt Christian (not muslim either).. his attitude (at that time) faaarrrr better than any Christian man i ever meet, he even said i can go to church.. he will go with me and as expected he ask me the same.. to go the temple with him too.. lol!! and i was busy looking advice to comfort my mind.. but God's words very clear.. so in the end i said to him sorry i cant be your gf (or wife because he want serious with me).. it really break my heart but i'm not die from heartache.. and i thankful now for not being with him but cant tell you the reason why here on public.. hehehe
read bible and pray more sist.. so you will know what to do..

and about God loves everyone its true.. God loves everyone.. its just that God hates sin.. there is grace for those who coming back from sin to Him...

I will get ready to do my activities here sist.. will praying for you.. I hope you think carefully about this matter sist.. think more, pray more and read bible more..
God bless you

someday maybe i will marry him. and i'm not really interested in having children, to be honest. it's never been my cup of tea.

I made this mistake,so I know what Im saying. I didn't carry it through to marriage. God protected me from my own stupidity. I had a guy come into my life,I believed so strongly it was of God. He wasn't a Christian but said he was interested in becoming one. I would have never dated an unbeliever but I was in a deep depression in my life,I had family issues and was very lonely.So I convinced myself God sent him and it made me happy so it couldn't be wrong. One night when I was traveling and was hours away from home he called me during the night.I had to work the next day.He was drunk and I could barely understand him.He had broken into his brothers home,beat in the door and found a knife and cut down his chest. You would think that would be enough to wake me up. I've never drank in my life,I have an uncle that died of alcohol poisening,a life long alcoholic.

I will "say" one final thing, then I will stop bothering you:

I am not a tradition Christian with traditional beliefs. I only started posting here a couple days ago and my beliefs have caused me to clash with a couple of others in that very sort time.

You came here tonight for a little bit of wisdom and advice; and sometimes (I have learned in life), the best and wisest advice...is the advice you don't really want to hear. Sometimes the truth really does hurt, and as humans, when we feel hurt we either want to run and hide or fight back; but neither of those is an answer to the reason why you came here.

I would suggest you take a breath, step way, and meditate on some of the things that were mentioned to you tonight. After giving it more thought (without the distraction of having to defend yourself)... I am sure he will make the wisest decision for yourself. Some of the seemingly hurtful things mentioned here, might give you the best perspective. I wish you the best, and good night.

I've yet to see a single persons post that even implies she would convert. So right from the start you are working with wrong conclusions.
As far as who is to say he will not convert, there is a Small chance of that. But history shows us evidence, and the evidence shows us that 9 times out of 10 the Christian is brought down, not that their partner converts. Or that their partners conversion is insincere and only done to pacify. It's called 'missionary dating' and will almost always backfire.

By being with him she already is purposefully putting herself in a position that something like this could happen. Why wait until it happens? That would only make the decision harder, by giving time to wait longer, and less likely to leave.

No, He wouldn't. God's ultimate goal is not our happiness, despite what certain preachers may claim. God's ultimate goal in us is to have fellowship with us, and to grow us towards righteousness. And, in reality, growth is difficult and painful. God is not concerned with giving us what we want to make us happy, He wants us to learn His will and be happy in that.



Different paths, yes. But these paths do not deviate from His righteousness. And it is against His righteousness to marry a non-Christian.
Just because God loves someone, does not mean he approves of your choices.

God does not judge? Have you read the bible? There are TWO judgments. One for the saved, and one for the unsaved. God absolutely judges, because it is His standards we are to live by and be judged by.



You seemed confused about Halal, though i presented you with scripture that answered your question.





Because part of accepting Jesus is learning and following God's will. It has been shown to you in the bible that it is against God's will for a Christian to marry a non-Christian. So this is what it has to do with you dating a non-Christian.

You are the one that keeps making this a hell issue, it's not about going to hell or not going to hell. It's about a desire to be obedient to God above doing what we want and ignoring His will.

It's well documented how Muslims treat non-Muslims. As i gave you reference to in my original post. And that's just one aspect of the situation.




Sure, they can pick whatever religion they want. But if they reject Christ as savior and choose to not obey God and His word then there is hell to face. You have a misunderstanding of what love. God's love has nothing to do with giving permission to people to do anything they want without consequence.
Have you ever disobeyed your mother or father? Did they like or agree with your decision? Despite not liking your actions, did they love you any less? Does the fact that they love you mean you are free to do anything you want?
So just because God loves us does not mean we have free reign to do anything we want.




You suddenly seem so insistent that you know so much, yet in this thread, time and again you show a complete lack of knowledge and understanding about the bible. And even as people give you Godly, biblical advice, you continue to disagree and push for your desires and accept that over God's word.




The bible actually teaches that Christians are, to a degree, to judge other Christians.
