Yesterday, Tony left little doubt where he stands on the question. I agree, but only because the question says, SHOULD not CAN.
For a believer CAN date anyone they want, but the important element is SHOULD they?
In 1 Corinthians 6 Paul quotes his society in saying "I have the right to do anything.” But Paul continues to point out that "not everything is beneficial."
So... Is dating a non-Christian beneficial for a believer?
This should be the backdrop to any argument that is open to shades of grey.
That said, I think the first reason to avoid dating non-believers is due to the calling God places on the lives of His followers. Ephesians 5 says “Therefore be careful how you walk, not as unwise men, but as wise…” God calls them to be wise.
Christians are not to do things which they could anticipate their physical, emotional, or spiritual harm.
In the following days i think we'll see that who you date can be quite unwise...
