‘IS IT RIGHT FOR A CHRISTIAN TO DATE OR MARRY AN UNBELIEVER?’ Part 3

Q: As the bible says that the head of a man is Christ and the head of a woman is a man. So for instance whereby the wife is born again and her husband is not born again, so in that sense, a wife prays covering her head. So my question is as you said that if a man is without Christ, will the prayers of his wife be heard, and will her submission be acceptable to God?

A: She is graced in that sense and instead of God hearing from her head, He is able to speak to the wife. God graces her as both they were not born again before but one later got born again. As the bible says that you can save them, so God can hear your prayers while you are praying for him.

Q: What happens when I got married to someone who is born again and we served together, but along the way, my spouse decided to backslide. What do I do in such a situation? Do I divorce?

A: You must not divorce unless he is the one who leaves you. As we are teaching about marrying an unbeliever, there is also a teaching about marrying the right partner. In such situations, you marry someone, and then later they are not born again. God knows the heart of a person. He will not give you someone who will not be born again later. God will never fail you. That is why it is important to inquire from the Lord. Those who have tasted the glory and went back, it is difficult to come back. One who eats it is impossible to go out for you are caught and you are a prisoner. It is impossible for God to give you someone who tasted the glory. God give you in marriage while both of you are born again and are in the kingdom. He knows that you will carry each other.

Some there are signs that you see as though they are backsliding yet they are not and they come back. It is not that they tasted. It is like Peter, the devil asked for him but he was prayed for. God knew that Peter will come back. To some, it may seem as they backslided but they will later come back because God is still going to save them. God cannot say you must not marry an unbeliever and yet bless you with one who will later be an unbeliever.

So we are teaching about not marrying an unbeliever but now we are dealing with those in the house of God whom you would find you are both believers but are you suitable for each other or is it the right partner. Are you the right rib? Just like Adam did not have many wives but had one, so God did not ask for his opinion as to which rib should he choose.

Q: I heard in some of your teachings saying some couples (married to unbelievers) think they are married and yet they are not, also that they are committing adultery. How do you know that you are not married according to God? And if you are not married, how can you fix it?

A: All people who were married before being born again you are not married and you are living an adulterer’s life, also co-habiting. Even if you were born again but you were given to marriage by one who was not authorized or who were never filled with the Holy Spirit, then your marriage is not blessed. You need to be blessed by someone who is with God. You will see them by their fruits. If you are not sure about the fruits of your spiritual father you need to pray to God that he helps you with discernment and also He reveals to you.

You will fix it when you are officiated by one who has God. We do not encourage you to be apart. Already you are staying together and it is the same as the one in [I Corinthians 7] that if you act improperly towards a virgin because you were betrothed to him, to that culture. So the culture was not of God but Jewish. Now you were betrothed you must marry. So if you were staying together and because you signed at the home affairs and were blessed at a religious church, I cannot separate you and say that you should be apart. I need to bless you in the right way.

Q: This other time you said if you were blessed by someone who is not of God, your marriage is not recognized by God. So what happens if my partner that is not born again does not understand that we have to be blessed by the man of God? Am I committing adultery as a believer? Do I abstain to keep myself pure to stop adultery?

A: Someone who is dating and you are born again and you decide to marry an unbeliever, then this question is not applicable to you. You must not be blessed at all. Coming to the one who is born again and the other is not born again it becomes difficult when it is the wife who gets born again and not the husband. In some situations, you would find that the wife does not want to be blessed especially when they are from a religious church.

When now it is the husband who is born again then the wife does not want to, yet there is grace that God will grant you to continue and live with them and you have to continue with your marital duties. You will win them over by fulfilling your marital duties. You need to use wisdom as your wife continues submitting, you need to try to win her heart even though she does not understand. Be patient as it is not something that happens immediately. Do not condemn yourself and think that you are committing adultery, God graces you. God is instructing you to not leave as you might save them.
