Hi to all

Hi Vangie,
I'm glad you have joined us here :)
A conference is a great opportunity for a big dose of spiritual rejuvenation. But the forum gives you that daily fellowship that seems so vital. I hope you will share with us and ask questions as need be.
mercy, peace and love

Vangie:
Thanks to Beloved, Gena, and Kat (hi again Kat--we met in Mobile!),
My hubby Joe is a gift from God, even though he is not a believer of the truth (yet ;) who knows what God has in store for him? I pray for His will to be done.) Joe is very receptive and supportive of the changes he sees and experiences in me. I am very blessed and thank God that He has seen fit for us to be together after 12 years of living--it has been a long road for us to get to where we are now!
Question for those who like me are with a mate "not of like mind"? How do we "be not unequally yoked together with unbelievers" 2Cor 6:14, if we're married to an unbeliever? Can anyone help me decipher this verse and apply it to life?
Thanks much!
Vangie

Hi Vangie,
I thought we had talked at the Mobile conference, but I'm so bad with names ::)
I am married to a man that has never shared my religious experiences with me me. I'm now thankful he did not get pulled into the church system, like I did for 25 yrs.
Note this Scripture.
1Co 7:12 And to the rest I speak--not the Lord--if any brother hath a wife unbelieving, and she is pleased to dwell with him, let him not send her away;
1Co 7:13 and a woman who hath a husband unbelieving, and he is pleased to dwell with her, let her not send him away;
1Co 7:14 for the unbelieving husband hath been sanctified in the wife, and the unbelieving wife hath been sanctified in the husband; otherwise your children are unclean, but now they are holy.
1Co 7:16 For how do you know, O wife, whether you will save your husband? Or how do you know, O husband, whether you will save your wife?
As a believer you have a real responslblity to your unbelieving husband. Not to try and teach him (unless he asks of course), but to be an example to him. There will arise many situations, I'm sure, that you will need to call on the wisdom from the spirit within on how to handle it. This is a great teaching experience for you, but also a delicate line to walk.
1Pe 3:1 Likewise you wives, be submissive to your husbands, so that some, though they do not obey the word, may be won without a word by the behavior of their wives,
1Pe 3:2 when they see your reverent and chaste behavior.
I really is good to hear from you and if you need help with anything, don't hesitate to ask.
mercy, peace and love
Kat
