I usually prefer to wait at least a year.  THe reason is because i feel that you really do not know a person until you have gone through a crisis w/ a person.  If i know they they will more and likely use the Word of God to get them through things then i have a pretty good idea about the marriage.  After being engaged, pre-marriage counseling is a plus.

This here brother is saved, sanctified, single, and not asking for samples. And I get more sisters asking me for dates then I ask them. Yes, I am considering somebody . . . she is a powerful preacher; sister girl can preach me all up under the table; has a mighty gift of faith, simply decides to beleive for things and she gets them:o looking at other people like, "What? Why are you so surprised? Didn't I tell you I had my faith out for this?"  . . . anyone who thinks I'm going to be responsible for tempting her to fall is loony!

She has a Powerful Daddy . . . One Who even knows my thoughts!  :o

(And yes, LGM family . . . I could make some sisters stumble if I was inclined to do so  ;) On top of having several things going for me, I am just plain charming, children love me, I like to cook and I can romance women in three different languages. Ask somebody.)   

I would be scared to peices to ask a sister to give up her relationship with GOD to help me scratch an itch. I know Who her Father Is, and no way I'm standing before HIM over that!

I am not saying that people who have fallen into sin are not saved . . . but there is a difference between being tempted and falling into sin, sincerely repenting and getting back up and not doing it again . . . there is a difference between that and giving up samples until marriage.

Nor am I saying that saints can't struggle with issues, or may fall into some things that they aren't proud that they did.

But give up samples until marriage? Sorry . . . saints don't do that. The Bible says that no fornicator will enter into the kingdom of GOD. That verse implies that fornication, or adultery, is a way of life . . . not something they have done and don't do anymore. 

So I repeat . . . saved sisters don't give samples, and saved men don't ask for them. The only sample I'm even considering  / praying over is asking for a sample ring size . . . but we ain't there yet.

I agree with you, Bro Uriah . . . that people who do such things should indeed fell guilty. Granted, I agree with you. But not because they are sampling . . . they should feel guilty because they aren't saved and pretending that they are.

My husband and I got to know each other for 2 years BEFORE we started dating and then dated for a year and half the second of half of year 2 we were married.  However during this time we sought individual counseling and Godly wisdom from our leader along with personal Inner healing and Deliverance.

I believe that if you know there are some issues there you should take the steps to get rid of them and to get free of some things.  Get your credit straight before hand etc.

We went through over 12 weeks of pre-marital counseling cause we both had some things we had to work out ( I'll be honest I DIDNT WANT TO LET GO OF SOME STUFF ) So it took a little longer than normal.  However I am grateful that our Apostle gave us a chance to work through our issues instead of pushing us on through the course.  We resolved some things at out own pace and in the end I believe came out better! ;D
