1 Corinthians 7:12-14
12.To the rest I say this (I, not the Lord): If any brother has a wife who is not a believer and she is willing to live with him, he must not divorce her. 13.And if a woman has a husband who is not a believer and he is willing to live with her, she must not divorce him. 14.For the unbelieving husband has been sanctified through his wife, and the unbelieving wife has been sanctified through her believing husband. Otherwise your children would be unclean, but as it is, they are holy. This would not be of a question regarding my husband. I am unmarried, but this would be regarding my Boyfriend. I am a believer and he is not. In reading this scripture I do know that he will be consecrated through me through my beliefs. I have been struggling with a lot of things right now in my life. I haven't attended a church service since January. Where I live they have the live taping of the service on television and I watch it. I did watch it every Sunday now it has come to maybe once a month. Yes, of course it's not the same as having the fellowship. I just have not been able to get myself motivated to attend. I think at times maybe the things my boyfriend says turns me away. My struggles are getting to a point that I am giving up on Christ and not seeking his help  I do not want to give up on him(Christ) Or give up on the other man I love(Boyfriend). I do not want to be judged by my boyfriend for my beliefs. On the other hand I know that Jesus will not judge me for anything so having him in my life is important to me. It is hard to be strong in my faith when my partner is not. We can not even begin a topic of Spirituality, because he will be so negative about it that it hurts. We had one conversation and it was an hour long and no matter what I said he was right and I knew in my heart that he was wrong. It's so hard he is such a good man with VERY different beliefs. I don't know what to do. Can anyone offer scripture or some words to help me along with my prayers?

Sorry hun.. I was gonna post the same thing. I was married to an unbeliever for 10 years and during 8 of that I was so unhappy it was unreal!He eventually told me he wanted out of the marriage.I felt relieved.
You can't save him.. He has to ask Jesus into his heart... he has to repent of his sins... and until he does that and gives his life to Christ, you will feel the pull to his world.. satan's pull....be careful...satans loves to win souls from Christ... he will use the ones you love.... Faith
