..In verse 12, Paul says, “and now to the rest,” and he seems to be dealing with those who were married and then come to faith in Jesus Christ later. He recognizes the life altering decision that is, and the implications it creates. He gives them directions how to handle those situations: If a believing spouse leaves the marriage, pursue reconciliation, but if an unbelieving spouse leaves, let them go. But how do you know for sure who is a believer and who is not? Paul lays out a challenge for those who are in marital relationships to recognize the influence we have in them and the God-honoring stance that we can take of not just having good marriages, but great marriages for His glory.
