Are the wicked blessed by God with prosperity?

Thank you Kat,

My testimony is the same as most everyone.  I searched and searched and found this website and knew almost instantly that this was the truth.  However,  I continued to pray and read almost everything on the site.  I was so excited.  God opened my eyes and it frightened me (in a positive way).  I started telling others and my husband (who is a devout pentecostal) they said it was the devil.

I have spoken to my husband and told him that I must come out that
I can no longer be a partaker of her sins.  His eyes are not open and it is hard.  He is trying to indoctrinate me more in error.  However, God has given me amazing patience and calmness and Godly love for my husband.  He changed me instantly.  I do know that God is calling me out and he is equipping me for this. 

I do constantly hear obey your husband in all things and submit to him.  That is why I asked the question.

I ask for everyone's prayer.  Although,  God is with me, it is not easy.

  sry kinda of slow with the reply.  I have had a busy weekend.

  Pastor did not say anything, he knew he was in the wrong.  Usually when I need to confront people or to show them what they are doing wrong, I just let the actions speak louder than words.  Though words every now and then are helpful.

  I ended up leaving the church relatively soon after this event.

  Sincerely,

Hi Tee,

Welcome to the forum. It's nice to have you here.

I don't think I could say much better than Kat did. Hopefully you can talk to your husband and at least he will know that you don't believe what is taught in church. I hope he will be understanding and and not try to guilt you into attending when your heart's not in it.

The whole topic of submission is pretty subjective and as Kat said you have to decide where Christ is leading you. For me, I wouldn't go. And if I did, I would be walking out in the middle of the service on a regular basis. My husband doesn't attend church, but he indicated a little while ago that it would be nice if we went. I told him to please go if he felt he should, but I would not be going. Not very submissive is it?
I don't know if this is right or not, but I feel a revulsion at the thought of attending church services. I want something real.

I'll pray for you that you will see a clear way in this situation.

I wrote an essay on that subject about a month ago, when I had (High School's) Religion graduation exam.

You probably know that marriage is a contract. Your husband has made a vow to love you,
and you know that he should love you and treat you with respect and respect your
ways. I think you are not doing wrong if you don't attend to the church which your
husband attends. But you should have a conversation with him and try to make an
understanding and a compromise.

I learned yesterday, that all conversations are not nice, but they must be done
for the sincerety of the relationship.

May God bless you and comfort you!
