BEWARE OF COHABITATION ( TO MY CAMPUS FRIENDS ) WHY CANT I ALLOW HER PASS THE NIGHT IN MY ROOM A lady informed me one day that she was coming to pay me a visit. I told her shes welcomed and that I would be expecting her.Then she said, I will be sleeping over o. I replied no problem, that I will make arrangement with one of my fellowship sisters or my neighbour so she could put up with any of them for the night. She said she wouldnt like that. Then I asked to know what she wanted, she said she would like to stay in my room. I told her it wont be possible because I dont allow ladies pass the night in my room except they are in group of two, three, etc. in which case I will leave the room for them. She told me it doesnt matter now and that shes not having any ulterior motive; and that she will ensure nothing happens. I replied her and said, it really does matter. Number one reason is that I am representing Christ in my environment. Will Jesus be in the same room overnight with a lady He is not married to? Let assume nothing happened, what do we tell or how do we convince people that sees the two of us come out from the same room the following morning. Definitely thats an appearance of evil that the Bible instructs us to abstain from. Secondly, let assume we didnt touch each other in the night, will our hearts still remain pure ? Wont it be filled with lustful thoughts? What then was my response ? I told her all those things I described above. At this point, she was bored. Then she decided she wasnt going to come again if I wont allow her sleep in my room. I replied and said thats OK by me, she may not bother to come. That was not the first experience Ive had over the years. The temptation comes in aliquot. But one thing had kept me; I will not do anything Im convinced Christ will not do. Cohabitation is very common among campus people these days, even among brothers and sisters in the church. Allowing a lady who is not yet your wife to pass the night in the same room with you is like tempting the Devil to destroy you. It is like scoring a goal for the other team. Sister, allowing Bro to sleep in the same room with you is one of the signs of compromise of virtue and backsliding. Lets keep the standard high. Holiness of heart and life is still the key into the kingdom of Heaven. Being engaged is not the same as being married. Hes not authorised to touch your body until he has paid your bride price. The beginning of backsliding is little little compromise. Lets hold on. Purity pays for life and eternity. Ive made up my mind to be a Christian, I mean a Christian... Not an hypocrite !
