HOW TO WIN AN UNSAVED SPOUSE TO CHRIST


HOW TO WIN AN UNSAVED SPOUSE TO CHRIST

The Bible gives important instructions as to how to win an unsaved spouse to Christ.

1 Corinthians 7:12-14 “...If any brother hath a wife that believeth not, and she be pleased to dwell with him, let him not put her away. And the woman which hath an husband that believeth not, and if he be pleased to dwell with her, let her not leave him. For the unbe­lieving husband is sanctified by the wife, and the unbelieving wife is sanctified by the husband...”

1 Peter 3:1, 2, 7 “Likewise, ye wives, be in subjection to your own husbands; that, if any obey not the word, they also may with­out the word be won by the conversation of the wives; While they behold your chaste conversation coupled with fear... Likewise, ye husbands, dwell with them according to knowledge, giving honour unto the wife...”

Ephesians 5:21, 22, 25 “Submitting yourselves one to another in the fear of God. Wives, submit yourselves unto your own husbands, as unto the Lord... Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself for it.”

1 Corinthians 7:16 “For what knowest thou, O wife, whether thou shalt save thy husband? or how knowest thou, O man, whether thou shalt save thy wife?”

The biblical principles of sub­mission, holiness, respect, and love are essential to win an unsaved spouse to Christ.
