The Benefit-of-the-Doubt This one's for the ladies. thought I'd give a shout, it's about time husbands got the benefit-of-the-doubt. Especially if he's repented by doing a turn-about, turned to Christ from idols, desiring to go God's route. Yes, the past was ugly a lot needs worked out, but isn't it a blessing, the benefit-of-the-doubt: You can trust in His redeemer, the One who saved your man, being able from the beginning to finish what He began. Now if he's unrepented, you have reason to pout, if you're unequally yoked there's benefit-to-doubt. Things can get better; being in Christ in paramount, salvation first ladies and then the benefit of the doubt.
