Don't Be Gullible

In 2 Samuel 13:1-20, we read of a man who met a girl, sweet talked her, had sex with her, and afterward treated her like a dog! This happen centuries ago, and it is still happening today because some females are just too gullible. These women are suckers for sweet talk and a smooth smack-talker will sweep them off their feet.

And after the sex, these women will see that they have been used. Ladies wise up! Talk is cheap! Where is the substance in the man? You must respect yourself because if you don’t respect yourself, no man is going to.

Here are somethings I hope you will keep in mind, before you take that man to meet your parents are or get very serious.

• Is he pressuring me for sex? Does he believe that according to the Bible that sex outside marriage is fornication? Have I seen him go into a fits of anger? Does he have a job? Does he pay his bills on time? Has he shown good personal responsibility? Does he take the lead as a man?
• Does he dress in a respectful manner or does he look like a thug?
• Am I a woman who likes thug-looking men? Who are his friends and what are they doing with their lives? Does he use foul language?
• Does he respect me or women in general? Has he proven that he loves me?
• Are there bad reports about him? Has he spoke of any goals that would include a wife and children? Has he been divorced? If so, did he divorce his wife because she committed adultery? (Matthew 19:9).
• Is he open to learning about the word of God? Am I open to learning about the word of God?

Hope you will pay attention to this message.
