How to deal with a husband who turned into born again christian?

My husband has been going to the chirch for a while, like two years. Recently he became born again christian and acting all weird.. All he does is citing a Bible, etc. I don't know how to deal with this kind of situation . Any suggestions???How to deal with a husband who turned into born again christian?
The best thing you can do is try to understand him and find out what he has learned. There is obviously something there. He loves you and probably wants to share with you. Just look in to it and find out what it is that has captured him. All it takes is a open heart.How to deal with a husband who turned into born again christian?
Well, I would sit down and read the things he is using or citiing. If he is actually living according to what God tells us is right, I would say that you could end up a very luck person. Now, notice I said that if he is actually doing what the Bible says to do.





What is wrong with being a true Christian? I mean, it offers you many advantages if your husband is actually following what God says to do. How? Because hubby will be more responsible, more caring, more loving and so forth. He will try to do what is right more often and he will be concerned with what is right and try to do it even when it is not easy to do.
Have you been going to church with him? Cause he could be getting brainwashed by some really extremely religious people. I have to be honest with you that when people become born again Christian and start to act like this, it's very hard to get them to go back. to what you would call is normal.


I had a friend like that. I think it was because he felt guilty about being attracted to another co-worker and told his wife, which in turn really messed up their relationship. He thought if he because super religious that everything would be okay.





Well, he turned into the most judgmental and hypocritical person. He couldn't be changed. I don't know about your husband's depth into this church, but if it's not too much than maybe he can still be helped. It might sound stupid, but how about an intervention. You really need to know why he became a born again christian. Was there inner problems that he was dealing with alone for a long time?
Have patience. He has a love that is hard for you to understand. Try to be open to what he is sharing with you. Marriage is about sharing life with one another. This is a big part of his life.





His excitement may be an annoyance to you, but truly, there are things MUCH worse than having a husband who is, of all things, a christian. ;-)
This is a very permanent change, religion can become an addiction to some people. If you're not on the same page this can be a deal breaker in a marriage, because sooner or later he's going to criticize you if you don't become involved like him. I've know men who lived with overzealous religious women, but not the other way around.
Respect his beliefs and his choice but let him know that he must respect your beliefs also. Make sure he knows that you think it's great and that you support him, and if you want to get more involved also, that's even better. However, if it's not something that you're feeling, then don't pretend. Hopefully he'll respect you enough to understand that he can't force you into a certain religion. That's only if it gets to that point, however. The most important thing is to be supportive.
I think that a person has a right as a human being to explore his spirituality and that perhaps you need to talk because if you are not like minded in your faith you could set yourself up for years of conflict Yes he has changed, because becoming a born again christian opens your heart and opens a new growth process. It sounds like he hasn't quite learned to integrate his spirituality into his life, and that can be a tough thing. But if this is going to be a problem for you you need to get on board and learn to understand where he is coming from to see if it will work for you
Well obviously becoming a born again christian isn't your thing or you wouldn't be asking this question. Yes, being a christian is good for some but for others it isn't. The best thing you can do is support him in his spiritual growth and he should support you to find your own spiritual path if you wan one. If he starts ';thumping'; like so many do...then...and only then should you get in any sort of snit.
See what it's all about! If its been that long then it seems like he has found something pretty solid. I'm sure he would love to share some of it with you. I'm not saying you MUST go running off to church with him every week and throw away everything you know, but just check it out. Give it a little time, and after some serious trying and finding out more you can decide what you think. Be honest with him. Tell him you are unsure but you want to do whats best for your relationship. If he is going to a good church he will be respectful, loving, and patient with you as you work through it. Good Luck!
If your religious beliefs are different from his (and it sounds like they are), have a talk with him and tell him you're willing to respect his views as long as he doesn't try to force them on you and respects yours in turn. The two of you will just have to agree to disagree on this one. If either of you are incapable of doing this, I don't see much of a future for your marriage.
Run, Forrest, run!!!! The only thing worse than a Sunday morning Christian is a Born Again one. They all have a one track mind! You've become secondary to his salvation. (not HIS salvation...his salvation...) Unless you're ready to be the Tammy Faye to his Jim Bakker, get while the gettin' is good.
My wife, also is a born again Christian.. However, I was raised around church, so, I deal with it ok. Wonder what his age is. Do you have a religion ? Are you American or from overseas? That info would help give a suggestion.... CC
its never easy to deal or cope with changes in our lives but you are his wife and should support him go to church to hear the word you never know and talk to him and let him know that him being born again is making you uncomfortable...good luck
Be happy for him. This may sound cliche, but why don't you join him? BTW, how is he acting all weird by becoming a born again Christian. It sounds like you have a problem with this...
Go to church with him and study the Bible together.
He can be a christian, but you're still his wife! And he can't all of the sudden start ignoring you.
Listen to him. He may be trying to lead you in a good direction.
be evenly yoked
That's great! Maybe one day you will go with him and understand his ways. At least give it a try.
You may have to scrap the marriage - he is seriously brainwashed!
