Love is like a "lock and key"

When a person teaches how things "Work" per say, without using a lot of obscenity or visual aides that are "dirty," a person could use the illustration of a lock and key.

There is a group of Jewish faith who -DO NOT TOUCH- their future spouse until the wedding day!  Even shaking hands is forbidden from time to time.

Essentially what this practice "shows" us is that there is -CHEMISTRY- that will work for a couple, BEFORE, they even get together as a man and woman.

How do we know if we have found the right "lock" or the right "key"?

1. Repentance first (the world system doesn't want you to do things the bible way).  2. Prayer.  3. Guidance from those who already have a marriage that has lasted for a long time.  4. Wisdom from elders (I would say anyone over the age of 30 and has been around a lot of couples or situations).  5. Learning from character of failed relationships or situations 6. If a person is over the age of 30 and knows his or her own "chemistry" and what works (without even touching a potential lover) then, go based on biblical wisdom and comprehension alone.

All in all it is important to note that when two become one, the "spirit" is meshing together.

Before a potential partner is found (the man seeks a wife), make sure to develop talents, skills and stability that will cause the woman to enjoy the man and make an environment safe for raising children if it is in God's will.  Things to consider: Physical fitness, financial stability (being wealthy is neutral but debt is not good), freedom from anger/addictions/bad habits, positive friendships, skills for the home, skills for the workplace, trust in creator/redeemer, building faith......

NOTE: NEVER EVER try to "look" at a woman with lust and assume that is a way to KNOW if that woman is a potentially good partner.  It doesn't work, and it WILL leave a man frustrated with the results.  Sexual impurity problems are NOT solved just by "marrying into lust."

Just for the KICKS of why people do relationships the way they do....and why modesty is important aspect of culture...... even though many people are "american"


Because MOM......said so.
