    Professing Christian, no fruit

    You should be careful with statements like this when you don't know someone. No, I have not always lived on good soil. BTW, I could do without your composting techniques. Really unnecessary and lacking in sincerity. Maybe you should join the comedy section since that seems to be your goal...

    Professing Christian, no fruit

    Which is why it would be best to just be friends. "Missionary dating" is never a good idea. As far as I know, he's working with rocky soil, but only God truly knows his heart. He doesn't talk about it, or doesn't like to talk about it. Which is why a friendship is best.

    Professing Christian, no fruit

    So true! I tend to meet Christian men who are either so high on Christ they speak in parables and/or live at the church, or they are more like the casual/carnal Christian. I'm all in for bible study and Christian movies or documentaries, but balance is important. I would much rather move...

    Professing Christian, no fruit

    I do understand what you're saying and I agree. My fear has been that he has just been going with me to be with me. We are only able to see each other once a week, because of our differing work schedules and days off. Sunday is the only weekend day off we share. He also works much later than I...

    Professing Christian, no fruit

    I am not a "street preacher", but I do enjoy bible study and am passionate about exposing false teachings, because I was once almost sucked into a false teaching. We are here to learn, serve and grow, right? He shows no real interest in it, which is why I am hesitant to continue. The reason I...

    Professing Christian, no fruit

    Would you date (or be in a committed relationship) someone who said they were a Christian, but had no desire to talk about the things of God and the bible? They say they enjoy going to church with you, but there is no real evidence that they are growing, or that they are truly interested in...
