Your comments are more unrealistic. You approached the situation more like a Japanese Drama writer. Whether Christian or Non-Christian, just being honest for himself first would be best. He is a Christian, but not a counselor who understands what would be the best for her, even if she were a just stranger. Being a Christian does not necessarily mean to interfere other people’s bad chosen life, especially when they are not sure or do not understand whether the interference would really helps the situation or not. And, he is still young in his thirties and never married, not in his 50ties or 60ties with experience with marriage. That could make a lot of difference. Older guys in their 60ties would not mind to marry to her, whatever histories she might have. (Sorry, older guys. But, i am not totally wrong.)
Not many people can handle this kind of situation unless it is in an unrealistic drama. He may still try to show sincere kindness or pure generosity to her whether Christian or not. Do you think she would feel gratitude to that kind of kindness? Unless she asked any help from him personally, he would better leave her alone. Don’t give her any false hope. Giving false hope is more cruel, could result in more miserable situation to both of them.
Good Samaritan does not have to marry to all poor girls. Ruth found Boaz by God’s help. But, even Boaz were older and generous single man. God did not find a young rich guy for Ruth….and Ruth was not hiding anything from the beginning, everybody knew all each one’s situations. but, I know this is not a point. I believe that God can make happen anything if He wanted the other way around. Rahab’s bridegroom, one of two spies to Jericho, knew that she was a prostitute from the beginning, but still married to her. Hosea also knew Gomel(?)’s dirtiest story from the beginning. I don’t think they were average people. In modern days, i believe there are still that kind of Christians. I know (not in person) that some normal Christian man (한국인) married to a girl with no arms and no legs. And another Christian young able man (영국인) married to a older (I mean, very very old, but NOT RICH at all ) divorced lady. (this guy is very famous in Christian world, i doubt many Christian know about his much older wife though. I still wonder why he married to her. it doesn’t have to be by romantic love.)
오! 완전 토르소만 가지고 태어난 닉 부이치치(호주인)던가 그사람이랑 결혼한 젊고 이쁜 와이프도 있네 참. 그 커플들, 시험관아기는 가능하기나 할까? 원글의 예와는 다르지만, 위에 댓글단church분 생각과는 다른 예로, 크리스천들 사이에는 믿음이라는 매개하나로 별 이상한 결혼이 다 있죠.
