I have to stick with what I posted before. Following good will lead her well, imo..

As far as we know she is not being Physically Abused.

They got married Last August, shortly after she and her husband got married, he told her that a friend of his was getting married and that he would be going to an Overnight Bachelor Party, Or course she told him she did not want him going, but he went anyway. Not too long after that he lied to her and told her he would be going to a "Rock Concert". (turns out he went to an Adult Contest).

November, my sister finds out that she is pregnant and Come New Years Eve, he goes out with his friends while my sister stays at home (she does not drink nor does she go to bars).

January comes around and he has a friend that is moving, well they go to a bar where they stay until 2 A.M. and (one or both I forget which) get drunk.

July comes and he loses his Wedding Ring, in August their son is born...... he is now 3 months old and My Sister's husband leaves them home alone on weekends so he can go to Bars. (I have no idea if he's been going to bars every weekend since their son was born).

He does drink at home and he told me he's been to every bar where they live.

last weekend Lisa originally told us they would be attending a relative's wedding, Ronald bought thier son an outfit the night before, the next day he suddenly changes his mind and says he will not be going but Lisa and baby could go without him. Lisa then says they will not be going.

She has put her foot down many times but nothing seems to be working.

There are only 2 reasons I can think of why he'd be going to Bars with a wife and baby at home.

At this point, I have no idea what my Sister can do.

From a Christian standpoint, What Can She Do? I don't even think marital counseling would help at this point, but she can try it.

she originally told us the reason they would not be going to the wedding is because they had no gas money, the real reason is because Ronald stayed out at a bar too late the night before.

Last Time we were there (in September) (Ronald had been out to a bar the night before with his brother). He hangs out with his brother a lot.

He also told he got a new job so he can "Supposedly" stay at home with his family.
Her husband is an alcoholic. Your sister needs to go to Al-Anon meetings. She cannot fix him or make him change. She can only learn what is best to do for herself.

Totally off-topic, and you don't have to answer, but I'm curious as to why you capitalize random words in the middle of your sentences. It's a little disconcerting to read.

I will be shocked if he is not cheating on her...... I don't know but you would think a married man would want to stay at home with his wife and three month old instead of being at bars.

she called us last week and told us just that the Police were looking for a person that showed up on their front porch at 10:30 at night.

She was in the bedroom with their son (Bedroom is right next to the front door), she hears the dogs barking frantically and she could hear someone talking to their dogs through the front door, She Told Ronald (who was at the opposite side of the house) what happened and he told her that she was "Over Reacting". She called the police to report what happened.
