<p style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 10px; color: #494a44; font-family: Tahoma, Verdana, Geneva, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px;"><span id="en-DLNT-5353" class="text 1Cor-7-10" style="font-size: large; font-family: 'times new roman', times;" data-mce-mark="1">Paul gives a command from God in 1 Corinthians 10:10, but then in 10:12 Paul gives a command from himself: "Unto the married I command, yet not I,&nbsp;<strong><em>&nbsp;but the Lord</em></strong>&nbsp;.., but the<em><strong>&nbsp;rest is from me, not from the Lord</strong></em>&rdquo; (I Cor.&nbsp;<a href="http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=1%20corinthians%207:10-12&amp;version=KJV" style="color: #517291; text-decoration: underline;">7:10-12</a>). Paul in saying this did what OT principles required for recognition of a statement as inspired -- he said the message was from "the Lord."</span></p>
<p style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 10px; color: #494a44; font-family: Tahoma, Verdana, Geneva, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px;"><span id="en-DLNT-5353" class="text 1Cor-7-10" style="font-size: large; font-family: 'times new roman', times;" data-mce-mark="1">Now what Paul says is "not from the Lord," but himself, begins with verse 12. It is bizarre, spiritually speaking. It is at total odds with Paul's doctrine of salvation by faith. Paul teaches that an unbelieving husband is sanctified by the wife, and likewise the unbelieving wife by the believing husband, and if this were not so also one's children would be "unclean" -- unsaved, but instead are "holy" (saved). </span></p>

See&nbsp;<a href="https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=1+corinthians+7%3A10-14&amp;version=DLNT" style="color: #517291; text-decoration: underline;">1 Cor. 7:10-14</a>. Paul had the good sense not to attribute that idea to God that one's salvation is through close blood-relationships within a single family unit without faith. John the Baptist decried this imparted-salvation idea in Matthew chapter 3 -- the Jews who thought their relationship with "Father" Abraham saved them.</span></p> </td>
