He has a deeper life background and they don’t support “dating “ which we call boyfriends and girlfriends. He meant that surround yourself with male or female friends in the name of friendship because you don’t know who will marry you if you try to ignore everyone because of one person and she or she doesn’t marry you , you have to start making new friends all over. That’s why ladies go over 30 and single 😢

I understand what the man of God is saying, and I have some of them and because of our narrow understanding of the phrase, so I rather tame it "my female friend" which does not include romance or any practices that is beneficial to either of the party. So I don't say girlfriend, especially if I am making any public posts for because when you mention boyfriend or girlfriend, the society will profile you quickly, so we ought to be careful with our choice of words in our various expressions.

I then COURTED her to be EXTRA SURE and when i realized she was okay for me, she later became my FIANCÉE . ........ Girlfriend and boyfriend has gotten to do with SEXUAL PARTNER.

Well I respect Abel Damina and Pastor Chris and I hold them in high regard but not all of their teachings I agree with. Those teachings that are in accordance with the word of God I agree with them but those ones outside what the Bible says, I disagree with them and I discard them as well.

I think the term for normal friendship should be “male friend or female friend” English is not our language, those who own the language said that, in their language, boyfriend/girl friend means someone who you start having sexual intimacy with. So you can have as many male friends as possible or as many female friends you want. Study all of them and realize the one that would suit your God given purpose. # Be led by the Holy Spirit as you chose

This is the problem, marriage is very important but as young people our focus should not even be on marriage to be thinking of dating someone. The reason for being friends with the opposite sex should not even be because you think the individual is suitable to be married to, it even promotes fornication at heart. There are a lot of problems in the world that we need to be thinking about than thinking about marrying or even dating. How many people will have time to pursue purpose when they marry. They tell us that, get the most out of your single period because we can't do them when we marry and it's true. The Bible tells us how we should marry; how did our Patriarchs marry, that is the right way? If God never changes and He approved of this, then, that is the way. The world needs us, let us major the majors and minor the minors, this time of our lives should be given to learning to change the world

I asked myself what is the meaning of the word, "Girlfriend or Boyfriend" and this is what the dictionary says: A boyfriend or girlfriend is a re person's regular male and female companions, people who have a romantic or sexual relationship." So, if a Boyfriend or a girlfriend has gotten to do with a person you are romantically or sexually attached to, we Christians are not supposed to have boyfriends or girlfriends. PERIOD. If we start to turn against the dictionary definition of a word which we all have accepted, why do we now think the dictionary definition is wrong? ...... In school we all attended if it was a mixed school, there were boys and girls. Some of the girls in the school were our friends but we NEVER said they were our girlfriends because we all know girlfriend or boyfriends has gotten to do with SEX. ....... So, my dear Pastor Gideon, i know you are trying to explain what Pastor Elvis is saying, but please DEFINITION OF WORDS cannot be changed by what we think. His usage of girlfriend is contrary to what i know you even know and the definition of it in the dictionary and what even unbelievers know. It’s in this same vein some people have given another definition to SIN so they claim we cannot sin. It’s in this same wrong definition another pastor known internationally said the unmarried Youth can go and MASTURBATE. ......

Please the man is a preacher and not a linguist. Whereas his use of "boyfriend" may not be sound according to your Dictionary. His teaching is sound in doctrine. If this is the mistake that our Pastors in Ghana are making in their teaching, that would have been the least of our worries. A perverse generation we are have become dull of hearing and likes to argue about everything. We want a correct definition and use of words but not a correct ordering and patterning of our lives after biblical truths. If you get the definition of the word "boyfriend" and "girlfriend"' correctly and yet your life is not in sinc with biblical truth as pertaineth to the revealed truth on purity, what does it profit you? Instead of seeking to correct words, let's seek for truth and repentance. When we do that we will see and perceive the soundness of the doctrine which he espoused. That is not to say that a man of God should not seek to teach people in a language they can understand. God bless us all!

Thank you Pastor Gideon for trying to give clarity to Pastor Elvis controversial statement. He has good intentions but I disagree with the contest of his submission. The danger of having many boyfriends and girlfriend has destroyed many homes. Why do you even encourage the word "many" if you're truly a child of God, when the time is set for you to get married, the right man will come forward. The danger of having many to chose from has led to mistakes in marriage. Sometimes the person that appears to be perfect for you is not who God's want for you. The perfect person for you may never have been your friend. He submission is very deceptive and misleading. What he's saying is not Biblical and should not be coming from a man of God.

There are only 2 definitions of boyfriend or girlfriend. And he could have said dating he didn't. Lets not pretend like we know his mind. We should always be careful what we say as people in high positions. And the process of getting to know someone is never the definition of girlfriend. Getting to know someone for marriage purposes is courtship. He knew exactly what people mean when we say someone is our boyfriend or girlfriend so he shouldn't have said it in the first place. He could have said the same thing in a better light. Prole will still use it to do rubbish.

If you communicate and it leads to confusion you have not communicated. The word 'girlfriend' or 'boyfriend' is not Asante twi or Ga, it is English language and there is no ambiguity about the meaning of the word. You just have to google it or get a dictionary. What stopped him from just saying you should have multiple friends who could potentially be your future partner? Since he is not the originator of the word the question is can he be choosing what the word should mean? It's just like you talking and saying I saw someone eating with his ears and when we confront you you just say to me ears mean mouth. How is that reasonable? Yet even more worrisome are the people defending him.....hmmmm this new move of defending men of God even if they goof is really worrisome. While he is not encouraging immorality the choice of words should always fit the context even if you are using metaphors. You may not be a linguist, but you don't have to be a linguist to communicate clearly.

Pastor Elvis and Pastor Gideon, you are both missing the point. When you try to be online pastor, that’s how you would say such things, because you will just say something that will add a little piety to your hidden audience. Tell them Christianity is not an individual business, we are a new community, therefore we are to do things together. Be in the church, your local church, concentrate on what God wants you to do in the community, marry within that community. Where from this 5 boyfriend, 5 girlfriend, don’t have sex, don’t kiss till you marry?

This is exactly what Satan wants........ He just need one single statement as this to destroy countless lives...... There is nothing like friendship between man and woman because automatically it will lead to feelings but people tend to deceive themselves that they are just friends. This statement was purely unnecessary and it has opened the door for Satan to destroy so many women's life... In scripture even women were not allowed to speak to men until they are married because man will always be sexually attracted to a woman regardless.

@@benedictabaiden2664 My dear, the term boyfriend and girlfriend was invented by late 17th century, and it has always been used as having a romantic or sexual relationship with a regular companion. So to tell Christians they can have more than 1 boyfriend or 1 girlfriend, in as much you are not having sexual relations with them, what does it mean to you? Not everyone is matured enough to see the threats involved, someone having weak knowledge about this, are you not putting them in danger?

If you put the tag boyfriend or girlfriend on it, it changes the whole narrative. Just be friends, no entitlement, no my man, no my woman things. There's nothing that you can in boyfriend/girlfriend relationship that you can't do in friendship if you're going to stay chaste

I think the term for normal friendship should be “male friend or female friend”

As a leader, you have to watch your utterances because, it has made many backslide. People who may not have the opportunity to listen to further explanation or even this platform, may have missed it.

It is important to know your audience and what to put across to avoid controversy. People will take your well meaning statement and twist it to satisfy their lust just as they do to scriptures. When it comes to social media, we have a large range of audience and some can take you statements out of context

The truth is that no matter how much you savor your words , you don't decide to be taken out of context . Those who want to take you out of context will always find a way to do so . Bloggers today twist with cut and paste . Everything he said is right please . That's what I think .
