Married to an Unbeliever
Married to an Unbeliever
By David M. Tyler, PhD
It is not uncommon to find a Christian man or woman married to an unbeliever. There are several ways this can happen. Sometimes a believer ignores the plain teaching of Scripture that says believers must only marry “in the Lord” (1 Corinthians 7:39). At other times, two unbelievers marry, and later one of them comes to faith in Christ. Either way, being unequally yoked in marriage brings spiritual challenges that require patience, humility, and steadfast obedience to God’s Word.
