Ellen Gould White über: "May a man pray together with a woman when they are not married?"

The provided quotations deal with the topic of spiritual union and marriage, especially the dangers of a partnership between a believer and a non‑believer, but they do not contain a direct statement about whether a man and an unmarried woman may pray together.

The Dangers of Partnership with Non‑Believers

»The plea is sometimes made that the non‑believer is friendly toward religion and everything one could wish for in a companion, except that – he is not a Christian. Although the believer's better prejudices may hint at the unsuitability of marriage with a non‑believer, nevertheless in ten out of ten cases the inclination will triumph. Spiritual decline begins the moment the vow is made at the altar; religious enthusiasm is dampened and one after another falls, until both stand under the black banner of Satan.«
