Biblically, I think you're entitled to a separation, not a divorce, since your husband hasn't been physically unfaithful. As far as God is concerned, you *are* married until one of you goes off and "marries" someone else. From what you posted, that wouldn't take long for your husband - and I've never gotten the slightest feeling that what you want is some other person, just to be allowed to be yourself.
Practically - well, what's to stop your husband from doing what he did before, which we discussed in our private correspondence? You leave and then what? He does what he did the last time and you do what you did the last time. The purpose for you leaving is to stop the pain and humiliation... but he was easily able to continue that the first time when you left. How would this time differ?
Spiritually - what is your purpose in God's kingdom? You know that Christian women are called to witness to their non-Christian husbands. And we both know that your years of witness haven't done a bit of good, and to our mortal eyes, don't look like they ever will. But what about God's eyes? Have you asked Him? And have you asked Him about His timing? There are factors other than divorce that might free you from this time of misery.
And thank you... now I know why you're so set against the popular protestant view of being saved! MUCH has become clear.
I hope that God adds you to His list of folks to "wind up the leftovers" so that you are prepared for whatever He has next for us...
HUGS and lots of love,
Hearth
