It is important to assert that nothing in the Bible says online dating is forbidden. It shows denunciation of the adequacy and satisfactoriness of the Holy Scripture to insert certain laws that God had not brought in from the beginning. People should not force into one another transgressions that are not actually written in the Scriptures. This was an error committed by the high priests of the Jewish sects during the time of Jesus. Since online dating has become prevalent, it is imperative to help people understand this modern endeavor in accordance to biblical teachings.
Advantages of online dating
* This activity makes it possible for people to interact with a bigger community of individuals who have not met the partners God intended for them.
* If online dating is utilized prudently, it can present a situation to assess a possible date prior to a personal meet up.
* Lots of unattached individuals who give a lot of their time and effort into online dating are often seeking for a partner who also wants to be in a real relationship.
* There have been numerous success stories of couples who met through these websites and eventually were engaged and had gotten married.
There are great advantages, but whatever people decide to do, it is always recommended to determine the pros and cons prior to getting involved. Pastors have certain apprehensions about this kind of online activities because if used without much consideration, it can be risky.
Disadvantages of online dating
* Can be costly. Certain websites may be accessed without charge; however, many ask for fees that range between thirty to fifty dollars monthly.
* Takes much of your time. Sites ask registrants to fill up forms with endless questions. Actually, this is important to determine possible matches with other members. Communicating with possible matches can take a while and is also a long process that can sidetrack you from other activities that are also important in your life like your family, your work, and significant others.
* Misleading information. Some online dating sites promise to match and find searchers their perfect partners. Their marketing ads present numerous couples who were able to find their matches which engender only an idealistic concept that may not be closer to the truth. Nevertheless, majority indicate a one to two percent of dating relationships in their site wind up getting married.
* There are probable risks involved. Majority of online dating websites have very long cautionary statements and disclaimers about security in meeting different personalities through the Internet. Revealing very personal details to a stranger is not very smart and can be risky. Also, when exchanges are made through online communication, it is more difficult to determine if the other person is telling the truth.
* There have been numerous reports concerning wrongdoers and delinquents who con people they meet online.
Overall, when you have decided to engage in online dating, make sure that the person you will choose to date is one who will share your values and principles. He or she must be able to encourage you to develop a deeper relationship with God and make Him the center of your lives. Ask from the persons you meet certain questions regarding their spiritual conviction and the way it serves them in their activities of daily living. It also helps if the other person carries a recommendation letter from his pastor or spiritual leader from their community.
