The sermon on 1 Corinthians 7:10-16 addresses instructions for believers married to unbelievers, emphasizing that marriage remains sacred even when one spouse does not share the faith. Paul reaffirms Jesus' command against divorce and corrects the Corinthians' mistaken belief that leaving an unbelieving spouse would lead to greater holiness. He explains that the believing spouse sanctifies the marriage, making it holy in a non-defiling sense, and that children from such unions are not unclean. However, if the unbelieving spouse chooses to leave, the believer is not bound to the marriage. Paul encourages believers to stay and seek peace, as their faith may ultimately lead their spouse to salvation. The sermon concludes with pastoral advice, urging believers in mixed marriages to prioritize their spouse, set clear boundaries for faith, and pray persistently while trusting God's plan.
