ICorinthians 7:12-24 actually has Paul stating that the words following were from him and not [vwhy.He states that unbelieving spouses are made set apart by the one who believes and that each personshould remain in the same state he/she is in when called. If you are married to a non-believer, stay thatway. If you are uncircumcised…stay that way. None of these statements are in line with Turah…but in all
