When Their Is Violence
It is a different matter, although, if the abusive speech is laced with angry profanity or threats of violence or if you find yourself being physically --- perhaps being pushed, shoved, or slapped.
This indicates a dangerous lack of self- control; things can easily escalate into more serious expressions of violence..
It is best for unmarried couples to avoid being isolated together in the first place. But if you do somehow find yourself alone with a rageing man, do not " return evil for evil. " { Romans 12:17}
Remember : " An answer when mild , turns away rage, but a word causeing pain makes anger to come up." { Proverbs 15:1 }
Stay calm. Ask him to take you home. If neccesary, walk-- or run-- away!
What if a man tries to force a women into a sexual activity ? Of course, it is wise for a couple, right from the start of a courtship, to set clear limits on their expression of affection. { 1 Thessalonians 4:3-5 }
If a young man pressures a young women to violate Bible principles, she should make it clear to him in no uncertain terms that she will not compromise.. { Genesis 39:7-13 }
