Here are a few:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><a href=\"#h-faith-priorities-don-t-match\">Faith priorities don\u2019t match<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"#h-church-conflict-or-worship\">Church worship or conflict<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/h-differing-moral-compass\">Differing moral compass<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"#h-lack-of-respect-for-your-beliefs\">Lack of respect for your beliefs<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"#h-negative-influences-on-your-faith\">Negative influences on your faith<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This isn\u2019t an exhaustive list, but it\u2019s a good starting point to help you assess where you stand. Remember, God wants the best for you, including in your relationships. I once heard a pastor say, \u201cGod isn\u2019t going to bless you with someone who pulls you away from Him.\u201d Let this be your sign. Are they drawing you closer to Jesus, or not?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"5 Signs You&#039;re Unequally Yoked #shorts\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/80EvM2f5yNs?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-dating-a-non-christian\">Dating a Non-Christian<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I can\u2019t count the number of times I\u2019ve heard Christian singles ask whether it\u2019s okay to <a href=\"https:\/\/nrb.ttm.mybluehost.me\/can-christians-date-non-christians\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">date someone outside of the Christian faith<\/a>. Some believe that their faith can lead the other person to Christ. While God can certainly work through you to draw your significant other closer to Him, that\u2019s not the norm; those are exceptions. I\u2019ve even heard the testimony of a pastor who married a woman in this very scenario. In his case, the Lord saved her the night after their first date.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">However, entering a relationship knowing that the other person doesn\u2019t know the Lord is not wise.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-but-they-re-christian\">But They&#8217;re Christian&#8230;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I\u2019ll take it a step further: you can be unequally yoked with someone who professes Christianity. How? They may be carnal. They like the idea of Jesus and might even attend church, but they still live life on their own terms. I\u2019ve heard heartbreaking stories from women who met Christian men, only to be propositioned for sex later in the relationship. The excuse? \u201cI love Jesus, but He knows I have needs, and He understands. Besides, we\u2019re under grace, so God will forgive us.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">What kind of comment is that? If they truly loved the Lord, they wouldn\u2019t lead you astray. Your spouse should desire to draw you closer to Jesus. They\u2019ll repent for their mistakes, and you\u2019ll see the fruit of the Spirit in their life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So, what are the signs that you may be unequally yoked? The main one is a lack of peace in your relationship. You feel a deep unease, and no matter how hard you try, you can\u2019t shake it. Don\u2019t ignore this. That\u2019s the Holy Spirit warning you to step away. It doesn\u2019t mean the person is terrible, but they may not be the right fit for you. Unfortunately, many Christian singles ignore these nudges because they\u2019re afraid of being alone and don\u2019t want to start over with someone new. The following signs that you&#8217;re unequally yoked should not be ignored.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-faith-priorities-don-t-match\">Faith priorities don\u2019t match<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\"><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">While dating someone outside of Christianity may be a clear mismatch, it\u2019s important to understand that you can also be incompatible with someone who professes Jesus but doesn\u2019t live according to His teachings. For example, you might seek the Lord\u2019s guidance in all your decisions. You fast, pray, and seek godly counsel. You refuse to go anywhere without the Lord, but the person you\u2019re dating may not prioritize God in the same way.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Imagine they go to church but still think it\u2019s okay to curse. They claim to want a kingdom spouse, only to say, \u201cGod understands when I have urges and need to have sex. I\u2019ll repent later.\u201d Despite professing love for Him, God is an afterthought.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-a-man-after-god-s-heart\">A man after God&#8217;s heart?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In John 14:15, Jesus says, \u201cIf you love Me, keep My commandments.\u201d Again, in Luke 6:46, He asks, \u201cBut why do you call Me \u201cLord, Lord,\u201d and not do the things which I say?\u201d He goes on to explain the difference between a person who builds their house on the rock and one who builds it on the sand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Do you remember the story of \u201cThe Three Little Pigs\u201d? It was one of my favorites as a child. As you know, the first two pigs built their houses out of straw and wood. When the wolf came, he blew their houses down. It wasn\u2019t until he reached the third pig\u2019s house that he met his match. The third pig built his house with bricks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you\u2019re truly walking with the Lord, you\u2019re building your house on the rock. That way, when the storms of life come, you won\u2019t break. Those who build on sand, however, are easily washed away. They have no roots and are swayed by the cares of this world. Is that the kind of person you want to marry? Someone easily swayed by the world, with no foundation? I don\u2019t think so. Remember, the enemy will attack your marriage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-a-spiritual-partner\">A spiritual partner<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You want a spouse who will fight with you against the demonic. Yes, there will be fun and romance in your marriage, but remember\u2014the enemy hates covenant. He doesn\u2019t fight fairly and will attack both of you. I saw a meme on Instagram featuring a husband and wife. She was in her wedding dress, and he was in his tuxedo. They were standing back-to-back, but not in a church\u2014in a war zone. Both held swords and shields, ready to fight. The caption read, \u201cDon\u2019t just pick a spouse because they\u2019re cute. Pick someone you can go to war in the Spirit with.\u201d Can someone say, \u201cmic drop\u201d? This is what you want. If not, you\u2019re going to lose in your marriage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"682\" src=\"https:\/\/nrb.ttm.mybluehost.me\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/A2-1-1-1024x682.jpg\" alt=\"couple\" class=\"wp-image-2731\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nrb.ttm.mybluehost.me\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/A2-1-1-1024x682.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/nrb.ttm.mybluehost.me\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/A2-1-1-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/nrb.ttm.mybluehost.me\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/A2-1-1-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/nrb.ttm.mybluehost.me\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/A2-1-1-1536x1023.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/nrb.ttm.mybluehost.me\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/A2-1-1-18x12.jpg 18w, https:\/\/nrb.ttm.mybluehost.me\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/A2-1-1.jpg 1600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-church-conflict-or-worship\">Church conflict or worship<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ol start=\"2\" class=\"wp-block-list\"><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I think this ties into the first point, but let\u2019s go deeper. I\u2019ve heard some Christians say they don\u2019t go to church. For most, this stems from growing up in a strict religious home or experiencing church hurt. Either way, they claim to love God but ultimately reject His body.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Think about this: you love Jesus but reject His body. You love Him but don\u2019t like His wife. Remember, the church is the bride of Christ. Does she make mistakes? Yes. But Jesus loves her and laid down His life for her. He doesn\u2019t change His mind, even when she sometimes misrepresents Him. Instead, He continues to show her forgiveness, compassion, and grace.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you\u2019re seeking to grow in your relationship with God through church and community, but your significant other discourages it, you\u2019re unequally yoked. They may have valid reasons for not attending, but it\u2019s not biblical. Hebrews 10:25 says, \u201cNot forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as is the manner of some, but exhorting one another, and so much the more as you see the Day approaching.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-we-can-t-do-it-alone\">We can&#8217;t do it alone<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We need community, especially in these last days as we await Jesus&#8217; return. Community not only provides encouragement but also accountability. If the person you\u2019re dating rejects the church, who holds them accountable? They may say, \u201cThe Holy Spirit convicts me,\u201d and while that\u2019s true, we\u2019re not called to live in isolation. That doesn\u2019t mean we need to be close to everyone in the church, but God often blesses us with a special inner circle to walk through life with and speak the truth in love.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Even Jesus had an inner circle\u2014Peter, James, and John. He called twelve disciples to follow Him and learn from Him. Though He is God and could have done ministry alone, He chose to involve others, and through them, the church was born.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I\u2019m not saying you need to immediately break up with someone who rejects the church. You can pray and ask God to soften their heart. However, if they refuse to change and you can\u2019t see a future with them because you\u2019re moving in different directions, it\u2019s time to move on. I know it\u2019s hard, but what\u2019s more important\u2014 obedience to God or following your heart? The world tells us to \u201cfollow your heart,\u201d but Scripture reminds us that the heart can be deceitful. Instead, we must lead our hearts by the Holy Spirit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-differing-moral-compass\">Differing moral compass<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ol start=\"3\" class=\"wp-block-list\"><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Values and morals are crucial in relationships.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-money\">Money<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">How does this person handle finances? Do they have to be wealthy? No, but if they have reckless spending habits and poor financial decisions, that could be a problem, especially if you\u2019re planning to save for your retirement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-relationships\">Relationships<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Do they respect their parents and relatives? Every family dynamic is different, but if they constantly talk about how they hate their father or can\u2019t stand their mother, it\u2019s concerning. If that anger isn\u2019t dealt with, you\u2019ll find yourself in the crosshairs. If they don\u2019t believe in forgiveness, but you know the Bible teaches us to forgive, they may prioritize their feelings over God\u2019s Word.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-you-can-t-change-them\">You can&#8217;t change them<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Yes, you can pray for them, but ultimately, you can\u2019t change them\u2014that\u2019s God\u2019s job. Sadly, Christian singles often make the mistake of thinking they can \u201chelp God out.\u201d If God leads you to help, that\u2019s different, but most of us tend to assume that role.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I remember a guy I spoke to before meeting my husband. He grew up in foster care and carried many emotional wounds. I thought I was helping and encouraging him, not realizing he was spiraling downward. One night, he called, admitting he had made a huge mistake. After going strong with the Lord, he had backslidden. He didn\u2019t share the details, but I sensed in my spirit that what he did was serious and wrong.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">God showed me that I had become this man\u2019s caretaker. It was hard to step away, but God made it clear: \u201cHe needs to come to Me, not you.\u201d The Lord even told me to stop taking his calls. I did, even though I still had feelings for him. Was he a Christian? He said he was, but our values didn\u2019t align. Don\u2019t compromise on values. Character matters, and it\u2019s what\u2019s in a person\u2019s heart that counts in the long run.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-lack-of-respect-for-your-beliefs\">Lack of respect for your beliefs<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I remember a guy telling me, \u201cYou\u2019re asking for too much,\u201d and \u201cYour standards are too high.\u201d I knew I wanted to wait until marriage for sex, but he wasn\u2019t on board. We didn\u2019t last much longer after that conversation. Unfortunately, many Christian singles are afraid to walk away from relationships they know aren\u2019t healthy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Why? They don\u2019t want to start over. They\u2019ve spent one or two years getting to know this person, and since they\u2019re almost forty, they fear that starting over will only prolong the prospect of marriage. Can\u2019t you see that this type of thinking is rooted in fear?&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">2 Timothy 1:7 says, \u201cFor God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind.\u201d If you\u2019re making relationship decisions based on fear, you\u2019re in a dangerous place. God knows your age and He knows your heart\u2019s desires. Why does God have some marry younger and others later in life? I don\u2019t know, but the people I\u2019ve spoken to who married after forty all say, \u201cIt was worth the wait.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If the person you\u2019re dating doesn\u2019t respect your beliefs and convictions, <a href=\"https:\/\/nrb.ttm.mybluehost.me\/signs-you-need-to-break-up\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">it\u2019s time to walk away<\/a>. You\u2019re not going to change their mind, and you shouldn\u2019t have to convince them that you\u2019re worth loving. They should recognize your worth and value right away. They\u2019ll see you as God sees you and will want to be with you. <a href=\"https:\/\/nrb.ttm.mybluehost.me\/partner-pressures-them-to-compromise-values\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Don\u2019t compromise<\/a> just to be with someone\u2014you\u2019ll regret it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-negative-influences-on-your-faith\">Negative influences on your faith\u00a0<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ol start=\"5\" class=\"wp-block-list\"><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I think this ties into the last point: if you\u2019re compromising for your relationship, you\u2019re in a bad place. How can you tell? My pivotal question is this: Are they drawing you closer to Jesus? I remember hearing Pastor Sarah Jakes Roberts say that being in love with her husband inspires her to get closer to the Lord. I first heard this as a single woman, and now that I\u2019m married, I understand it even more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-inspiration\">Inspiration<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">My husband is usually the first one up in the morning. He\u2019ll rise as early as 5 a.m. (or even earlier) to read, worship, and pray. I\u2019m not a morning person, but seeing his intentionality in spending time with Jesus inspires me. It\u2019s not that I wasn\u2019t intentional before, and no, I don\u2019t think we need to mimic our spouse\u2019s walk.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But I decided to be more deliberate because I tend to rush through my quiet time. It\u2019s not on purpose\u2014my brain just gets crowded with the day\u2019s to-do list. Watching my husband challenges me to slow down and treasure that precious time with God. The truth is, my day goes smoother, and I\u2019m much more productive when I take that time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Can you look at the life of the person you\u2019re dating and be inspired by their walk with Jesus? Or have you strayed since meeting them? Have you missed church because they suggested a spontaneous Sunday date? Do they change the subject every time you mention what you\u2019re learning in Bible study? Have you grown closer to God since dating them? If you can\u2019t answer these questions positively, you\u2019re not equally yoked.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A true kingdom spouse may sound impossible to find, but they exist. There are people who love Jesus and seek to put Him first in their lives. Ladies, don\u2019t give up on finding the right man, and men, don\u2019t give up on finding the right woman. God knows who the right person is for you, and you won\u2019t have to lower your standards to find them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Ready to meet <a href=\"https:\/\/www.be-salt.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">kingdom-minded singles<\/a>?
