My husband is a Christian but I am not.?

Question

I am not anti-Christianity, but somehow over the years I have not been able to develop my faith in it. I can't bring myself from thinking all religions are man made. I do go with him to the Church on occasions, but he knows deep down that at the end of the day I am an athiest and he doesn't refrain from showing his disgust about it. I am a good person, stay happy, and try my best to keep everyone happy and healthy. Can anyone tell me if his anger is right? Am a bad human being, a bad person if I don't follow what my husband follows?

Answer 1

Christianity isn't something you should follow just because you want to please someone you love. i wouldn't say that he is disgusted in you otherwise i don't think that he would have married you in the first place. he loves you. if you're supposed to become a christian then God will change your heart the way he wants it to be. and stick to your good morals and beliefs. they're what makes a person!!! and if you try to do the right thing then you are good because where you're up to is all that matters at the moment. if you're continuing to have troubles with this then you should talk to your husband about it!! : ) ♥

Answer 2

I believe your a good person since you have said so and I do not agree your husband has to right to get mad at you just because of his belief. He should instead be praying so you become a Christian and show you love and kindness and let you see Jesus Christ in his life so that you can also join him and be a Christian. Maybe the way he leads his life is having a negative effect on you so he may be the cause of your unbelief. I pray you will see the truth and may God bless you and take care.

Answer 3

Are you gay?
Because the outline of your Avatar is...
How do you say?
Manly..

Whatever, Anyways, you should definidently consider getting a divorce.. And Whatever you do, Don't Have Kids with this man! Please! Don't! I'm serious! Use Birth Control at all costs.

If you must stay with this man, then continue going on your own way. Eventually your paths will either meet up or seperate.

Hopefully you are intelligent enough to not ask "Are We There Yet"? because you won't let it get that far.
Just end the relationship.
I don't care if he opens the door for you or treats you to dinner on tuesdays. Just find another man.

Answer 4

I am sorry that you are sad and unhappy. I am a a born-again Christian and would love everyone around me to become one but i won't get angry or hateful if they don't. No. Christianity is a race of love not a religion of force. I would love you to go to heaven believing in God by yourself instead of going to church and feeling like you have just wasted time hearing a good message that does not really affect you. I think what i am trying to say is i would pray for you in Love to come to know Jesus more but the decision is really yours to make. I pray your husband would see your side of view and love you no matter what and just maybe, that love could pave the way to your salvation. I don't know you but i love you with the love of God, no matter what you are going thru, i pray that the almighty God will sustain you and keep you strong. Stay in touch.

Answer 5

In the first place if your husband is really a Christian then his anger at you is misplaced.
The Bible says: "Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her to make her holy, cleansing her by the washing with water through the word, and to present her to himself as a radiant church, without stain or blemish, but holy and blameless. In this same way, husbands ought to love their wives as their own bodies. He who loves his wife loves himself. However, each one of you also must love his wife as he loves himself, and the wife must respect her husband." (Ephesians 5:26-28&33)
The truth is that, while he may be resentful that you aren't a Christian, it is not his right to take that out on you. He knew what you believed when he married you so it is too late now to hold it against you. You are his wife and he must treat you the way the wife of a Christian should be treated--with the same love and care that he would lavish on himself.
It is not God's will that your husband disrespect you. Your husband should show Christian behavior and love towards you in the hope that you would want what he has. He is disrespecting God when he treats you this way because he is disobeying God's desires for his behavior towards you.
He should ask for God's forgiveness and then ask for your forgiveness for his treatment of you.
His behavior is not your fault. It is his responsibility and he needs to acknowledge that.

Answer 6

its ok that you feel this way but your husband should be more compassionate with as you as it seems have a deffinate part for god he has planted a seed in your heart as you said you have come to put faith in god only god is the way the truth and the light and you are very much there all relligions other than god are man made im so delighted that you know this because its the first step to knowing god if you want to kno more all you have to do is ask jesus to come into your heart and forgive your sins get a bible and start reading it does take time to understand this and your husbdand should be by yourside as a companion not a discouregmant im open to more disccusion just email me if you do want to kno more darl you are not a bad person

Answer 7

When you married Him, You both have become one. He is the Head and you are the Body. Simple enough to understand here? I can elaborate in details but it will only be a waste of time on you.
After all this years and you cannot understand your Husband frustration. Still believing that you are of your own. For what do you get married? Money? Security? Sex? Babies or Family or all of it? Are you so slow to understand or you are a wicked person? Which is which does not matter but by you asking here and justifying yourself to be Holy and innocent and your Husband to be an angry person is not quite fair for me to write more.

Answer 8

I think you are not a bad person. How can you believe something you don't? Perhaps you are agnostic, you just don't know.

My own belief is that religion has caused more deaths and suffering that anything else in history and I can't believe a God would kill and torture so many souls.

Perhaps reincarnation is more believable than heaven. If we lived many lifetimes it would make more sense than the idea that you get one change to make it to heaven and then burn in hell for all eternity if you don't make it.

Anyway, he should respect you enough to respect your belief.
If he doesn't I can't see the relationship lasting.

I wish you well.

Answer 9

You can always force a person to eat something but you can never force him/her to enjoy it.Similarly you can forcefully baptize someone, but you can never force him/her to show his/her faith in that particular religion.
Truth is the greatest God & humanity is the greatest religion which everyone should follow.
Sometimes answer for a question is a question itself?
My question to you is: If your husband indulges himself into anti-national activities, then will you follow him?

Answer 10

First off his anger is not right. He may be frustrated but he should take it out on you.

Second is that religion is never the way to God. Religion is a set of man made rules and if a certain church tells you the only way to god is through them and their ways they are wrong. Read the word yourself, listen to preachers that encourage you to learn the word yourself w/ god. Man is not the way to god.

Your not a bad human being...just remember religion is man made but spirtuality is not. God wants to have a personal relationship w/ you.That is the main difference between religion and spirituality. Thats why there are catholics and christians...Dont get me wrong church is NOT bad. Just find the one that brings you CLOSER to GOD. GOD BLESS! and i pray all works out!
