How do I know the will of God concerning the person I will marry?
Yes it is very important to know the will of God as concerns the person you get married to. However, knowing the will of God is a very broad topic. God communicates with people in many ways. He will always adopt the way that He finds easiest with you. These ways include
1. The inner witness. No voice. You just know somehow.
2. The inner voice, otherwise called "the still small voice".
3. Dreams
4. Revelations
5. Through a sermon
6. As you read the bible He speaks to us through His word,
7. Etc.
The thing is to get used to the way God speaks to you in small matters first before you go to a big matter like the issue of your life partner. Having mastered that method, it becomes easier to be sure it is God leading you.
Is it biblical to marry somebody from an opposite religion, for example a Christian to a Moslem?
I don't know the kind of Christian, this question is referring to because everybody calls himself a Christian. But when somebody is a born again Christian, there's no place whatsoever, in the bible for that person to marry somebody who is not a born-again Christian. That's what the bible teaches. The born-again Christian should also marry another born-again Christian. That is clearly in the bible. It says, "What fellowship do you have with somebody who is not born-again". That's where I stand because that's my constituency. So if you are referring to some other type of Christian, I may not be able to answer for that person, but for somebody who is born-again. There is no place for you in the bible to marry somebody who is not born-again.
