Right on about culture. I met my wife because she is pretty, I continued to date her because of her personality, but my decision to propose to her was sealed when I experienced her "culture"... hearing her testimony, going to her church, socializing with her friends, assessing the quality of the people she keeps close company with. And I know she was doing the same.
It's spot on where you say "It cost more of us" to recognize true beauty, which is seeing God's ideal as our focus. It's also very wise counsel to request the input of a trusted believer as a third party to offer their view on a person one is interested in dating or is already dating.
I love this video. It brings all the right things together. Unfortunately all of us are already been culturalized so for those who are looking for the right mate will need to undo that learnt behavior and then realign themselves God's way.
The wisdom in this.... Wow! Thank you God ❤️..... I have a different perspective now.... The values that God wants in a spouse should override our own values, or attributes of what we look for in a spouse, as our values or our perspective of what is attractive and appealing to the eye is mostly influenced by the world we live in. I heard you 🙌
Thank you for this video. Currently I'm in the process of determining who to pursue as a partner, I can say wholeheartedly that what I want, more often than not, is nowhere near what scripture describes as a godly woman. The heart deceives and mine definitely does. Hearing this also makes me consider whether or not I'm an attractive man when compared to the qualities described in the bible. I realize that I also have to be a godly man so that God will lead me towards a godly woman.
Brother i agree with your thinking and approach to wanting or finding a godly woman and on being a goldy man. Like the scripture says, "Favour is deceitful, and beauty is vain: but a woman that feareth the Lord, she shall be praised." In the scriptures, it shows that Jesus Christ did not have an attractive appearance. i cannot speak on behalf of individuals who want to be married, but i can use myself as an example, i would rather find a godly woman, than a beautiful woman who says that she is a follower of Jesus Christ, when she really is not. Plus the outside appearance fades away. I want to make it clear for our brothers and sisters, do not be one-sided, read the scriptures for yourselves. There is an order for God's people, we must continue to nurture the body of Christ, to be good stewards. The time is indeed short everyone, may God be with you all, Amen.
When I studied Psychology in college, they say that statistically, women are more attracted to men with personalities that are very close or exact to their father. That fact makes me not want to date AT ALL, in FEAR that I will end up with a man just like my father.
This guy is beyond philosophical, I'd hate to face him in a debate. He rumbles a lot but engaging, you want to rush him to the point but intrigued by what he's currently saying. Great orator

@@jt19933 it's true, there is no closer, both should be closer to God, my point was not about who has to be closer to God more or not, 1st chorinthians 11:3 But I want you to realize that the head of every man is Christ, and the head of the woman is man, and the head of Christ is God. it's easy to say men and women are equal living in this modern days, but speaking of the Bible and God, we can't say....NO, both are equal and should be the head, generally speaking of most men that expects women to be like man or equal to man aren't real man in my opinion, they're what they called a man that is feminine, and expects to be leaned on woman when it should be the other way around, it's so sad to see woman somehow trying to act both like man and women this days, because most man aren't responsible enough to be real man, a man can only be real man if he looks up to christ, and a woman will act like a woman if she's with real man,
This is probably one of the most challenging questions to answer... From my personal experience your gut feeling is right 9/10 times. If something doesn't feel right, then it most likely isn't. Instead of focusing your efforts on what to look for in a relationship maybe focus more on the deal-breakers. Let's say if you're an environmentalist and you don't want to contribute to overpopulation, you might ask your date something like “What are some of your future goals and aspiration” instead of something like “What are your thoughts on children...” 🤦♂️
You articulated that very well. Thank you, I recognize the contrast and influences of modern society on so many aspects of life that do not line up with the values instilled by faith in and pursuit of a relationship with God. Seems if we plan and want to be in the presence of God we would be wise to value his opinion a bit higher vs our own preferences. Amen.

I always look for a jurisdiction that doesn't employ no-fault divorce when I look for a spouse. Which is why I'm not looking for a spouse. And if I were looking for a spouse, I sure as hell wouldn't go to the Southern Seminary for advice on what I should look for. I looked to Christians for that the 1 time I got married, and, well, see the aforementioned reference to no fault jurisdictions.
Isn't physical beauty from God, and therefore objective, rather than contextual? The bible says David and Joseph were "handsome", so that's God's judgement, not the cultural associations of beauty in their times.
@@chutdiggadigga Hmm the Bible is inspired by the Spirit, but it was also written by human authors. The way I see it, "handsome" could be a judgment of the human authors based on what the wider Israelite community thought of Joseph's and David's physical appearance.
I'm in my 50's and never played games with women so I know what I'm looking for. It's not easy because most women my age have low morals and have made so many bad decisions they are beyond hope. There's a girl I work with much younger and we get along well. I thought what if she's a clean slate spiritually and she would be interested in going to Church with me and that would open her up to Jesus' teaching and the bible and provide her with a good foundation that would make her a good spouse.
This guy is just not very clear and concise with his answers! Kept talking about porn for majority of the video! As if he is trying to prove something. I wish Dr. Whitney answered this question. His answers are so CLEAR and straightforward and very wise!
That's what I thought. I watched the whole thing and at the end, I thought, "what is he trying to say?" I think the current church is terribly inept on dating/marriage issues in contemporary Western society today (March 2020). They don't seem to address or even be aware of the actual problems.
I wish that more qestions and answers will apear about how we look on people around us. And what bible tell us how God look. Some times diferens ameize me.
Shayba Jasmine Hi :D Reading the Bible will help you to see what is God’s will because the Bible is the word of God. To answer the second question, yes, that should be the goal of everyone. It won’t be easy and you won’t always be able to do what God asks but the faithful will fall and get back up. Keep trying and keep praying that god help you to do His will because we cannot without His help. Hope this helps. I’ll be praying that God directs your path, your thoughts, and your actions.
God's will is for us to believe on Jesus Christ, the one He sent, His only Begotten Son, God the Son, the Son of God. The Gospel of John Chapter 6 makes that Very Clear. Hope that Helps, love and Peace.
John Mark Carter it’s quite simple and helps to understand scripture when you don’t go for memorisation but understating. And when I say understanding it mean concepts not collection of words.
Nikhil Raj Gupta thanks for the answer! I have found that to be the case in my personal experience as well. For giving a case for the hope that is in you, that would be great. I guess the thought on my mine for a good example of this dilemma is when parents have their kids memorize scripture and catechisms. Or someone simply desires to memorize verbatim for its own merits. But perhaps their really is no good answer for that.
John Mark Carter I don’t read bible ever asks us to memorise it. Rather meditate it. I guess that’s what a Pharisee would do. Just memorise and understand nothing. I would always choose later. And multiple translations doesn’t bother then.

Let's also put forth what is explicit in Scripture: Only marry within the faith.
Right on about culture. I met my wife because she is pretty, I continued to date her because of her personality, but my decision to propose to her was sealed when I experienced her "culture"... hearing her testimony, going to her church, socializing with her friends, assessing the quality of the people she keeps close company with. And I know she was doing the same.
Absolutely amazing. This is the type of material to save and listen to over and over again. It really ministered my life...
I agree 100%. This man is right on because it’s biblical counseling. We need to learn to define beauty the same way Good does.
It's spot on where you say "It cost more of us" to recognize true beauty, which is seeing God's ideal as our focus. It's also very wise counsel to request the input of a trusted believer as a third party to offer their view on a person one is interested in dating or is already dating.

Follow what catches your heart rather than eyes. Human mind looks at physical body and spiritual mind looks for inner values.
That’s why God tells us to tests the spirit. Great commentary.

Social science answer or scriptural guidance? Answer was wanting…or, let me just say I was expecting the question answered. And it wasn’t.
