Every Christian is Necessary<\/a>? But I’m lost on what to do. My sisters don’t like me and use me for my English skills to spell, edit, and correct forms for them. What do I do? My husband has been wanting me to move in with him and end this foolishness, but I am really scared to leave home. I have no job. My husband will teach me martial arts for money. But I don’t know what to do, my cellphone got taken away, I have no address.<\/p>\nWhat do I do, Jeff?<\/p>\n\t
Answer:<\/h2>\n
It would be best to start with being honest. If you have not exchanged marriage vows with a man, then you are not married. “Yet she is your companion and your wife by covenan<\/em>t” (Malachi 2:14). You might have a boyfriend, but you don’t have a husband.<\/p>\nYou don’t move in with a man before marriage, it is after marriage that you live together. And marriage does require that you leave your parents. “Therefore a man shall leave his father and mother and be joined to his wife, and they shall become one flesh<\/em>” (Genesis 2:24). If this man claims he will only marry you after you move in with him, then you have the wrong man. “Marriage is honorable among all, and the bed undefiled; but fornicators and adulterers God will judge<\/em>” (Hebrews 13:4). But if you do properly marry this man, refusing to live with your husband is also wrong.<\/p>\nTo act as if you have no control over your life is also dishonest. You are an adult, act like it.<\/p>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
