The bible also says submit to the "higher authorites" If the wife is a
beleiver and the husband is an unbeliever, even though,she has the
office of wife, she (at that point) IS the higher authority.
However, attitude is everything. The word says "let the husbands be won
over by her "winsome attitude" or "her manner".
There is a way you handle things that shows you heart intent of
submission and respect.
With men it's about repesct and with women it's about love. As a woman,
if you truly love and care deeply about me, there isn't anything I
won't do for you. For a man, it seems the same. If he has to admiration
and repsect of a women, he is raises to a higher level in strength and
confidence.
So, how I would handle such a thing (although i would never marry an
unbeleiver) is to explain completely what the bible says concerning
tihing and offering, stress it's importance to me as a person and make
clear that what I do is in obeying the Spirit not disobeying the
husband. Dig my feet in, pray hard and be pleasant as possible to man I
commited to before God and man.
