    My friend says, she would rather not get married than marrying to non a Christian!
    I was sharing with a friend about marriage stuff and she asked me that what if she ends up with non a Christian! I explained to her that non Christians too can become Christians if we try to help them change & she was like “what if he doesn’t change, how would I stay with him?”I went deep to explain but as if she was okay with that (her) perception.
    What’s your take on this? Is marriage supposed to be Christian to Christian or it can also be Christian to non Christian?

    Marriage is a commitment. It’s a covenant between two people. Therefore, before committing yourself into the relationship, you need to evaluate yourself, and ask the hard questions; “If I marry a non-christian husband/wife,what are the most recent consequences that I’ll have to check!.Remember,it’s not easy to effect faith transformation plans after the two of you marry.Yes it can happen but this could be gradually. Are you ready to withstand the shock?. If your answer is yes,go a head and marry. If the answer is no,God is faithful and Just. He Will bring on your way the right candidate.

    Hebrews 13:4a-described marriage as an honorable thing to do. Therefore as Christians, we are urged to apply Matthew 5:16 that described christians as the light. The scripture say: we should let our light shine before men, so that they may see our fine works and give glory to God in heaven. When a Christian married an unbeliever, his/her examples as a believer will have a positive impact or results on the unbeliever to serve God. Christians are light of the world.
