What does the Bible say about marriage to an unbeliever?

Answered in 1 source

The Bible instructs believers not to separate from their unbelieving spouses, highlighting God's design for marriage as an eternal covenant.

In 1 Corinthians 7, the Apostle Paul addresses the situation of a believer married to an unbeliever, affirming that they should not separate. Instead, he emphasizes the sanctifying influence that a believing spouse can have on their partner and children. This teaching reflects God's original design for marriage as a lifelong covenant, established before the creation of man, and won’t change because it is instituted by God. Marriage is not just a social contract but a spiritual union that carries significant divine purpose.
Scripture References: 1 Corinthians 7:12-16, Hosea 2:19
