View Profile History	divorce your view on it Posted : 30 Apr, 2012 07:31 PM There's no view on it. It is what it is. And that's being wrong in God's eyes unless the other person committed adultery. Matthew 5:32 "But I say unto you, That whosoever shall put away his wife, saving for the cause of fornication, causeth her to commit adultery: and whosoever shall marry her that is divorced committeth adultery. 1Cor 7:10-11 And unto the married I command, yet not I, but the LORD, Let not the wife depart from her husband: 11 but and if she depart, let her remain unmarried, or be reconciled to her husband; and let not the husband put away his wife. So people will come up with all kinds of reasons to disagree, saying oh it's a mistranslation, or oh, you miss understood. But here's the fact. God said no to divorce unless your spouse cheats on you. Cut, clean, dry. I'm not sure what the situation is if you divorced when you were unsaved, and later got saved and can't return to your Ex. That's more of something that I think would require much prayer and guidance from God. Post Reply
View Profile History	divorce your view on it Posted : 30 Apr, 2012 09:35 PM I view marriage as an almost sacred promise made in front of your friends, family and most importantly God Himself. Before you make that decision you have to be ready for whatever can come your way. Any marriage can work if you try hard enough. I know it, as I have seen it happen. My parents have been married over 34 years, and during that time they've obviously had disagreements but they've managed to work it out. I am against divorce no matter what, even if your spouse has been unfaithful. Post Reply
View Profile History	divorce your view on it Posted : 30 Apr, 2012 09:40 PM There are threads on this subject already. But my view is that divorce is not allowed except for adultery. If one person divorces the other against their will, the innocent person can remarry. Deut. 24:1-4 Mal. 2:16 Mat. 5:32 Mat. 19:9 1 Cor. 7:15 Post Reply
View Profile History	divorce your view on it Posted : 9 May, 2012 11:51 AM Amen to the above posters, and props to brother Torahkeeper for posting scripture that we should stand on. That's the problem...people these days do not read the bible(not saying you, just saying with the church in general), and just justify their ways, and are "righteous in their own light"...they will do what they "think/feel" is right because they want it.. rather than submitting to the only true light and ways of Jesus. I see people on here who will justify fornication(sex before marriage/outside of marriage), hatred, and pursuing relationships with non-believers. Which are also all covered in the bible, and are clear. 2nd Corinthians 6:14 "Do not be unequally yoked with unbelievers. For what partnership has righteousness with lawlessness? Or what fellowship has light with darkness?" We live in such selfish times that are revolved around pleasure and entitlement. People learn about marriages and what a marriage "should" look like by watching movies/tv shows written/created by people of this world and gives the younger generation a skewed and delusional perception.... when in reality we should be seeking the word of God as to how to carry out our conduct and treatment of our fellow brothers and sisters in Christ(which by the way is a must in the bible). 2nd Timothy 2:3 "2For men will be lovers of self, lovers of money, boastful, arrogant, revilers, disobedient to parents, ungrateful, unholy, 3unloving, irreconcilable, malicious gossips, without self-control, brutal, haters of good, 4treacherous, reckless, conceited, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God, 5holding to a form of godliness, although they have denied its power; Avoid such men as these. 6For among them are those who enter into households and captivate weak women weighed down with sins, led on by various impulses, 7always learning and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth." 2nd Timothy 3:16 "All Scripture is inspired by God and is useful to teach us what is true and to make us realize what is wrong in our lives. It corrects us when we are wrong and teaches us to do what is right." And where does it say we should read the bible? In Matthew 4:4... if we eat physical food daily, we should read spiritual food daily to get built up. Matt 4:4 "But Jesus told him, �No! The Scriptures say, �People do not live by bread alone, but by every word that comes from the mouth of God.�" Jesus is the only truth, the way, and the life. John14:6 Post Reply
View Profile History	divorce your view on it Posted : 23 May, 2012 09:39 AM I don't believe in divorce unless the person cheated, is abusive, or is a criminal. Other reasons are not acceptable because they can be worked out between you and your spouse or with family or a counselor or church or friends. Plus we have God. It's too easy to get divorced and people take marriage lightly because they know they can always leave. Don't get married unless you plan on working on it all the time and want to stay married forever. Post Reply
