Me and my boyfriend been together for 7years now
we want to spend our lives together and not get married
we spend alot of time serving god and doing what he wants us to except getting married he know whats in our hearts.
we dont think getting married is gonna make any difference
when ever we pray we ask him for his forgiveness if he thinks
that we doing something wrong by not being married. We choice to leave things the way they are. We truly love each
other and in our heart we are one.

Is this a question or are you trying to get approval from other Christians? If that's what you are looking for I doubt you'll get it. I see no problem with the way you live as long as it makes the two of you happy. To each his own.

I don't see any problem with this arrangement. You both agree that this is what you want. You have not said if you have any kids. God is not going to come down and smite you because you are not married. The only problem that I see is one of legality. If you not married and one of you dies or gets really sick or if you own property together you need to consult a lawyer how to protect yourselves with respect to passing on any assets should one of you become ill or worse die. Perhaps getting health proxy might help. Get wills naming each other as beneficiary. It seem s like a lot of work I know but you want what you share together to be torn apart by somebody else.

Get married or leave him and become a monk. The God is patient, but you already tried his long patience enough by sinning and praying at the same time for 7 years. If you love God you should stop sinning. If you cannot stop sinning, stop praying. You cannot serve God and mammon at the same time, and you cannot serve God and your lust at the same time. Just make your choice and God bless you.

#1 - So what's your question.
#2 - If you really followed God's will, you don't necessarily have to get married but you also then shouldn't be having pre-marital sex. You don't sound like a great Christian if you're doing what you want to opposed to what the Bible says.
#3 - That was so difficult to read with the lack of punctuation! God's telling me that you should go take an English class.

Do what makes YOU BOTH happy!! do not worry about anything else!! if you guys are happy and dont need that paper then thats fine! You have to live for you and you ONLY! Marriage is the same as what you have now just with a different last name- thats all! I think its great you have been together for so long! You guys need to focus only on how you feel and no one else!! :)

So you know better than God? How can you say you spend your time serving God (which is capitalized, by the way), when you're living like this? God doesn't approve of it.

Isn't that sweet??? Can't wait to see you back wondering what went wrong and why your bf walked away from you so easily....it will be because you make it easy.....
Nice that he will make a commitment to god and not you....nice that you can PICK the parts of the bible...."gods word" that you want to follow and forget the rest.....what an EXAMPLE you are being for the rest of the world.
Shame on you. Hypocrite

Not sure what the question was but there is nothing wrong with not getting married.

If you are truly serving God, then I guess you missed the part about marriage and children in bible school. I suppose you will somehow be rewarded for living in sin and bring illegitimate children into the world. Please!!
