How successful would your relationship would be without Christ and prayer?

As much as possible No, I wont go in a relationship to a nonbeliever of God. It would be a non harmonious relation if you would go differrently. You're supposed to support each other's activity, how would you go on your belief, praising God if your husband would be against. However we can't really say definitly not, as love sets no boundaries according to some, we can't even tell if it would come as a challenge or a test to our faith, should that happen, I'll do all my best to encourage him to do believe in God. Should I succeed I can proudly say, He truly loves me. However if it's the other way around, challenging me that if I truly loves him, I'll go with him being a nonbeliever, I would definitely say, "I'm sorry but I love God more".

If anybody can not accept God being #1 in your life, you don't need them.

For those of you who said that you will not date a non-christian person I agree with you because I was once in a relationship like that and the reason why I agree with you is not because it is a sin. Because honestly its not but because the trials you will have to endure. Now I am a radical Christian I call my self "The missionary Christian" everything I do I do for God. The relationship I found myself in was difficult because my partner did not understand spiritual things so when I did certain things and behaved a certain way it will be an argument but glory to God through prayer and meditation of the Word of God my partner is now born-again and filled with the Holy Ghost and our relationship could not be better. So it depends on you the individual but also remember what the bible says that " All things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are called according to His purpose" Romans 8:28. And remember if you are a born-again Christian you are called to God's purpose so when you find your self in such situation be happy and know that ALL THINGS ARE WORKING FOR YOUR GOOD. Praise God forever more for a fantastic life in Christ Jesus.

Hello rareability. I cant see myself being in a relationship with someone who does not believe in God. I am a strong believer in God and he really means so much to me. If that someone doesn't believe in God then I believe our relationship wouldnt work out.

GOD is our rock without him, we are nothing. We praise and honor him each time someone stand up for Christianity. TIME OUT FOR SCARY SAINTS. THEY WILL NOT MAKE IT TO HEAVEN.

Very unsuccessful. Im a strong believer and any person that I associate with has to also be one especially my mate. you have to be equally yoked. I know the devil has tried to come inbetween me and my husband many times but with prayer and our strong faith he's lost that battle many times.

On Christ the SOLID ROCK, I stand all other ground is sinking sand. Hebrews 11:1 Now faith is the substance of things hoped for an the evidence of things not seen. Having an equally yoked mate makes the marriage go right. When road blocks occur prayer changes things. Keep your head up.

I won't accept a man without Christ of prayer as a mate. Three years ago,when it was my last year of my senior middle school, I fell in love with a boy. But after graduated we went to universities in different provinces. We kept in touch, but not a bit frequently.We gradually became strange to each other. This June, I dumpt him because I couldn't stand his unwillingly to get in touch with me. However, I find I still love him. Last night, I dreamt of him and he had gotten a girl friend. My heart hurts till now. After the dream, I got a impulse to pray to Christ to bring him to God and let him be my mate. But now, I don't do that. I'll obey God's will , regardless of my will. God choose who will be my mate.

It would be necessary for me that my partner believes in prayer and in God. I believe that if we share the same belief it could make our bond stronger.

As a non-christian of course I am not bothered whether my partner is a chgristian or other religion or preferably none like me. However, i have had difficulty with christians and other religions where the women refused to have a relationship with me as I was not from their religion. As with all important factors to anyone, compatability is the key and the more similar you are the better chance a relationship has of working. Best of luck if you are looking for a christian-only partner, you are seriously restricting your choice.

Thanks for your response. Luck does not exist in Christianity only faith and blessings.

definitely no. because for me religion really matters in a relationship. no matter how different our beliefs whats important is we believe in GOD and we would like to put HIM at the center of our relationship.
