Just like a woman of God compromises by going with a man who does not know his identity in Christ and ends up having to put up with more than God intended because of it; Men do the same thing with women who lack identity in Christ.
Many men find a physically attractive woman, and this solidifies them in the idea of trying to clean the woman up by introducing her to Christ, church, and submission.
These men, like many women, begin to disciple these women. In rare cases, it may work out, but in many cases, it will not. The woman may place the guy on a pedal stool because if he is genuinely saved, he is different from any other man she has been with.
Consequently, as soon as she gets close and sees the man is simply just a man, she may resort back to her common behavior for solving problems, which may be carnal and divisive in nature; instead of likewise covering her man with respect, forgiveness, honor, mutual affection, and prayer.
The truth of the matter is when a man is looking for a wife, he should use wisdom and do like Jesus by only choosing to attempt to prune a woman who is already bringing forth fruit in her life.
