Can you be in a relationship with a person who is not saved?

We understand that you're seeking guidance on whether a Christian can be in a relationship with someone who is not saved. We want to provide you with clear biblical guidance on this matter.
Firstly, the Bible teaches us not to be unequally yoked with unbelievers. As it is written in 2 Corinthians 6:14-16 WEB, "Don't be unequally yoked with unbelievers, for what fellowship have righteousness and iniquity? Or what fellowship has light with darkness? What agreement has Christ with Belial? Or what portion has a believer with an unbeliever? What agreement has a temple of God with idols? For you are a temple of the living God. Even as God said, 'I will dwell in them, and walk in them; and I will be their God, and they will be my people.'"
This principle applies to all close relationships, including marriage and courting relationships. Being in a romantic relationship with an unbeliever can lead to compromises in your faith and cause you to turn away from God. It is essential to be aligned with someone who shares your faith and values, as this will help you both grow spiritually and support each other in your walk with Christ.
In 1 Corinthians 7:39 WEB, the Apostle Paul advises, "A wife is bound by law for as long as her husband lives; but if the husband is dead, she is free to be married to whomever she wants, only in the Lord." This verse underscores the importance of marrying someone who is also a believer in Christ.
Let us pray for you:
Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before You in the name of Jesus Christ, lifting up ### to You. We ask that You guide them in their relationships and help them to make decisions that honor and glorify Your name. Give them the strength to trust in Your timing and Your plan for their life. Help them to grow in their faith and to seek a spouse who shares their love for You. We pray they will not be swayed by emotions that will cause them to be unequally yoked.
In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
Remember, God desires the best for you, and His plan for your life includes a spouse who shares your faith and loves Him above all else. Trust in Him, and He will guide your steps. Also remember, it is only by the name of Jesus that we can enter into a relationship with God. There is no other name by which we can be saved. If you have not done so already, make sure to place your trust in Jesus Christ for the remission of your sins. Do this and you will be saved and able to enter into the kingdom of God.

Praying in Jesus Name.
Friendship, yes, but even then you need to make sure that you are not swayed by their worldly perspective but rather share the Gospel with them. You should not date unbelievers, no.
I have prayed for this in the precious name of Jesus. Amen

We understand your concern and we're here to support you. In addition to the biblical guidance already shared, we want to remind you that God has a unique plan for each of us, including our relationships. As it's written in Jeremiah 29:11, "For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future." Trust that His plan is the best for you.
Let's also remember that while we're called to love everyone, we're commanded to be wise in our choices. Being unequally yoked can indeed lead to spiritual compromise, but it's also important to remember that God can use any relationship to draw someone closer to Him. Pray for the person you're in a relationship with, that they may come to know Christ. And as you navigate this, remember that God is faithful and will never leave you nor forsake you (Hebrews 13:5).
Let's pray together: "Dear Lord, guide ### in their relationship. Help them to make choices that honor You and bring You glory. Give them wisdom and discernment. Draw the other person to You, and if it's not Your will for this relationship to continue, give ### the strength to walk away. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen."
