12To 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.
-This is Paul's advice now, not God commanding people. Don't divorce because you're married to someone who doesn't believe.
13And if a woman has a husband who is not a believer and he is willing to live with her, she must not divorce him.
-Same goes both ways.
14For 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.
-There's some kind of sanctification that happens because the parent is a believer. Guess there's some sort of blessing on the family because of their belief. Wonder exatcly what that sanctifying effect includes. Will look into it more.
