Hi Michele,
The Bible clearly states Stay with your unbelieving spouse and then this scripture above says something else but what is it referring to?
This is the context from which that scripture was taken.
Mat 19:16 And lo! one coming near unto Him, said, Teacher! what good thing shall I do, that I may have life age-abiding?
v. 21 Jesus said to him, If you want to be perfect, go, sell what you have and give to the poor, and you shall have treasure in Heaven. And come, follow Me.
v. 29 And everyone who has left houses or brothers or sisters or father or mother or children or lands, for my name's sake, will receive a hundredfold and will inherit eternal life.
Verse 29 that you were referring to is not speaking about a physical marriage, but the spiritual life of the few chosen elect.
When you have given your life to Christ, He comes first, before
everything and everybody else. I have had to 'spiritually' not associate with some, because we are not in agreement, so I seldom see them. I still love them 'agape,' but I do not have the 'phileo' love that we visit and fellowship. But as that scripture said, I have received many more to fellowship and visit with, right here at the forum
The marriage is a very important part of a believers life, Christ uses it in many ways to teach us and to chasten us. But He put us in our marriage and He is in total control with what happens in it.
You will have to learn to trust Christ in what He is working in your life. If your marriage is good, you are blessed in that. If it is not so good, determine to do the best you can, in being the best wife you can be.
I hope this helps
mercy, peace, and love
