More quotes by Joshua Harris
When you dress and behave in a way that is designed primarily to arouse sexual desire in men, you are committing pornography with your life.
Joshua Harris
If you want to grow, find men who provoke you.
Joshua Harris
Terms don't define our lives our lives define our terms.
Joshua Harris
Having a girlfriend was no longer my greatest need. Knowing and obeying Him was . I wanted to please Him in my relationships even if it meant looking radical and foolish to other people - even if it meant kissing dating goodbye.
Joshua Harris
When you let God be God you can let humans be humans. When we place God in His rightful place in our lives, we don't struggle so much when human relationships let us down.
Joshua Harris
But remember, continuing a wrong relationship only increases the pain when it finally does end.
Joshua Harris
We want to stay on the straight and narrow path and serve God, yet we continue a practice that often pulls us in the wrong direction.
Joshua Harris
You are so amazed by grace, you're not picking a fight with anyone, you're just crying tears of amazement that should lead to a heart for lost people, that God does indeed save, when he doesn't have to save anybody.
Joshua Harris
Courtship is a commitment - it's a promise not to play games with another person's heart.
Joshua Harris
We express true love in obedience to God and service to others- not reckless or selfish behavior- and we choose these behaviors.
Joshua Harris
The doctrine of Scripture teaches us about the authority of God's Word. Scripture must be the final rule of faith and practice for our lives. Not our feelings or emotions. Not signs or prophetic words or hunches.
Joshua Harris
During courtship, guarding each other's purity and refraining from intimacy are the acts of lovemaking.
Joshua Harris
True purity, however, is a direction, a persistent, determined pursuit of righteousness. This direction starts in the heart, and we express it in a lifestyle that flees opportunities for compromise.
Joshua Harris
Just because something is good doesn't mean we should pursue it right now. We have to remember that the right thing at the wrong time is the wrong thing.
Joshua Harris
What we say we believe makes very little difference until we act on our belief
Joshua Harris
Romance says, ' I want it now!'. Wisdom urges patience
Joshua Harris
The right thing at a wrong time is a wrong thing.
Joshua Harris
True love isn't expressed in passionately whispered words an intimate kiss or a embrace before two people are married, love is expressed in self-control, patience, even words left unsaid.
Joshua Harris
A lot of us have developed a diet mentality toward lust. We really want to cut back on lust because we know its not healthy and it makes us feel bad. But like some rich, calorie-laden chocolate dessert, lust is just too tasty to resist completely. Surely God will understand if we break our diet and nibble a little lust now and then.
Joshua Harris
I am a sucker for romance and I love girls and that is a terrible combination, because romance has the ability to overwhelm your perspective.
