Restoration: A Study in EzraMuestra

What does it say?
After the Israelites confessed their unfaithfulness by marrying pagan women, they made a covenant to separate from their pagan wives.
What does it mean?
No doubt sending away the pagan wives and children caused heartache and division. Women from other nations could marry Israelites if they converted to the Jewish faith—however, God specifically forbade intermarriage with women who worshiped idols. Obedience was important for the nation to remain true to its worship of the Lord. Although these events in Jewish history are difficult to understand, the case-by-case investigations most likely determined which wives worshiped the Lord God of Israel and Him only.
How should I respond?
Dating websites connect others by matching personalities, political opinions, and interests. However, no connection is stronger than living for Christ. Sharing spiritual beliefs is vital to a healthy marriage. Because marriage is sacred to God, it should be to us as well. So, what should you do if married to an unbeliever? Scripture is clear and concise: the believing marriage partner must do everything possible to preserve the marriage (1 Cor. 7:12-20). Let your obedience to God’s Word be a spiritual example and influence for your spouse. Pray daily that your spouse will see their sin and receive God’s forgiveness. It may be your influence that leads your mate to faith in Christ.
