Are you that person that have been going from one Christian dating service to another hoping to find the soul mate whom you have been hoping for? If so, this series is for you.
Tip #1 – Date a Believer
One of the biggest concerns for single Christians today is the willingness to date an unbeliever or date someone who calls them self a Christian. That’s a person who has a form of godliness but lack the power thereof. You know the person who has an external form of religion, but no presence and power of God in their daily walk, talk or actions!
Spiritual Reference:
2 Timothy 3:5 “Having a form of godliness but denying its power. Have nothing to do with them.” (NIV)

The Christian Single Man: Tip 5
Tip 5
Do What Is Right
Marriage requires a person to be moral. Before getting married one must be mature enough to know what is right and what is wrong. He or she must be willing to live a life that follows what is right. If a person wants to continue to do things that are wrong, that person is not ready to get married.
Before getting married a man should be willing to give up living in a manner that is not right. He should be willing to give up any sinful behavior. When a husband and wife have children, they become examples to their children.
Before getting married, a man must be mature enough to remain faithful to one woman. One should be mature enough to control his behavior. Both husband and wife should be willing to follow the ways of the Lord.
James 4:17 So whoever knows the right thing to do and fails to do it, for him it is sin.

The Christian Single Man: Tip 4
Tip 4
Give Up Childish Ways
I Corinthians 13:11 The apostle Paul wrote, "When I was a child, I spoke as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child; but when I became a man, I put away childish things." We must be emotionally prepared before we can hope to be happily married.
As a child grows it develops love for the mother and later for the father. People who do not grow beyond this stage never see anything in this world more important than themselves and their parents. Anyone with such an attitude is not ready to be joined to a husband or wife. When such a person marries, the spouse finds that their mate will be constantly returning to parents instead of leaving father and mother as the Lord has commanded.
Emotional maturity is necessary for a successful marriage. When a man learns to love a woman more than any other person on the earth while loving God even more, then he is emotionally mature enough to marry.
Love is not just a warm feeling that a person has for someone else. The Bible teaches us that love is an attitude where another person's needs are placed ahead of our own. Love is willing to sacrifice. Love is not selfish.
(I Corinthians 13:4-8.) A loving person is patient. A loving person is kind. A loving person is not jealous and does not envy. A loving person is not boastful. A loving person is not filled with pride. A loving person is not rude. A loving person is not interested only in himself or herself. A loving person controls the temper. A loving person does not hold grudges or remember insults. A loving person is not happy when someone else does wrong. A loving person is happy when the truth wins. A loving person never quits loving. A loving person always trusts. A loving person always hopes for the best. A loving person always keeps on going. Love lasts forever.
Let us remember that a successful marriage requires preparation. Before getting married, people must be prepared physically, morally, spiritually, economically, and emotionally.
