What Does the Bible Say About Divorce?

[@Kinester100]

The hardest thing is to be in a relationship with a person who does not fear God or lacks consience

[@sfernandez2002]

You are exactly correct I tell my wife when she tells her family and friends when we have problems to not listen to them or worldly views bcuz thats the devils playground and it puts thoughts in her head to leave when times are tough and she doesn't fear God when I tell her what the bible says and we should be praying more but she looks to wordly views and it's been a struggle with her bcuz her past and how so negative she is. Please pray for us!

Why do you do things to make your wife run to family and friends in the first place u need to listen to her more and accept where you are wrong and work on change. Bible verses with no action will not do anything for your marriage 😳

[@ArielleVicMaxim]

@@lilianetv1482 I’m sorry but that’s not always the case some people behave like that they run to their family and friends to tell them about the problems in their relationships, that’s absolutely wrong and can break a relationship, no one should know of what happens in a marriage other than the couple, unless there’s violence or any type of abuse, couples should seek professional advice someone whose unbiased and supports both no just one side, also by her doing that she’s putting her husband in the spot and the way her family and friends will see him would not be the same, there is nothing more hurtful than your spouse expressing themselves negatively about their spouse to others behind their back it’s horrible and it’s just a bad as infidelity since lack of trust as respect it’s involved.

[@vivalav5199]

I’m so thankful I listened to The Holy Spirit. My husband and I have been married 38 years and we both refuse to allow the enemy to destroy our marriage. Believe me it came with lots of pain, tears and the struggle was hard, but God! We both love each other so much and we treat each other w kindness & respect. My husband is a praying husband as well. Something that was beyond my imagination. If someone had to told that my marriage would be this wonderful, I wouldn’t have believed it. God is a redeemer. He repaired both of us, and we made it! One day at a time and God in the middle! Amen! Hang in there couples... stand strong and fight with prayer and forgiveness! Lots of love! 💕💕💕

You’ve got a lot of people destroying each other’s lives because they refuse to divorce but they also refuse to change. God doesn’t desire your divorce but he cannot force someone to treat you with love, value and respect. It’s contrary to what we’ve been taught, but you have every right to protect yourself from abusive people. If you can’t leave your spouse, then at least set healthy boundaries in your relationship. My prayers are with you all as you pray for me.

My wife put in for a divorce 8-2-24. She saw a lawyer while I was out in California for a moving trip for my parents. Only way I found out was her location services showing she is at a lawyer, that was 3 weeks ago. For the past 2 1/2 weeks she has been telling me how much I didn’t do for her but I’m the one that as a man with no kids took on her and her 3 kids almost 10 years ago and for first 3 years the relationship between me and kids were great. But then it started going down hill, main reason I didn’t approve of a lot of behaviors they did. My wife has made many statements that she raises her kids how she and her ex want to. What do they need me for? Just money support? We had 3 small kids of our own 5,4,2. I tried leaving her back in 22 and after a week I saw my error and didn’t want to break up a family. I tried really hard to change my ways and be more accepting of things and was seeing progress for past 6 months before she went to get papers for divorce. She doesn’t want to go see counseling together. She doesn’t wear her rings and has told me she doesn’t feel married to me. Also she says she is a Christian but every time I show her biblical topics that contradict her belief she gets mad and says Bible is wrong. At this point I’m at a loss. I’d love to get with some people and get some help and advice.

I’m tired of being lonely in my marriage. He’s been emotionally disconnected for so long. I’m dealing with life’s issues alone. The only time he will touch me is to be intimate. I’m tired of being invisible. 😔

[@Daughter-OfTheKING]

I’m so sorry Clarissa that you are invisible to your husband. I am as well to mine. His priority is his job, his wife is pornography, his desire for pleasure resulted in an affair only five months into our marriage. I feel hopeless and alone. I find it hard to trust him and I wonder and doubt if I ever will. I see men differently. The betrayal is almost too much to bare. In his defence I know he is trying but the temptation is just too great. Deep down inside I know he is a good man and is capable of showing love and affection. I saw it before we married. He just chooses to direct it to porn regularly. How does a wife compete with that and why should she even have to compete?

[@EF2000CanFly]

He is probably depressed. The world is a bad place for men right now. Transgender roles, women working and being bread winners is a big problem. Men need confidence and to be the hunter and gatherer. You have a husband! Be thankful, some women are truly alone as widows and singles. Look at the good and empower him to be the man of the house. NEVER NAG! Pray for him

[@johnmagee3292]

​@@Daughter-OfTheKING Hi. I can only say this and I pray this gives you some type of encouragement. I have been married to the greatest woman I will ever know for the past 14 years, together for 17 years. Over the course of the marriage I unfortunately had 2 affairs and another physical encounter with another woman. The spiritual stronghold of lust and other things was too great to overcome without the love of Jesus guiding me AND I have been a believer. Finally my courageous wife separated from me and I got to a place where I was broken, alone, and I fully surrendered to the Lord. I deeply miss my wife and our 3 beautiful daughters but God caught me and is bringing me back to the church and ridding me of the bondage of those strongholds now. I am not home yet and I don't think it will be anytime soon, truthfully, my wife is keeping her options open, but she is a strong Godly woman and I am believing that God wants to and will restore, even make new, our marriage and that's my prayer for you and everybody else here struggling with this stuff. Even if your husband did not cross the line like I did with these women, you deserve to be put FIRST, after God, in your marriage. You need to communicate and perhaps take a similar stand but separate and go to counseling or whatever it takes. Your church can guide you on the right protocols. Let's lift each other up in prayer because I know there is NEVER an excuse for a man to do what I did in marriage and I am eternally sorry and regretful for what I allowed into my heart. God bless you and I pray for complete peace, healing, and restoration/revival in your life and marriage.

“Furthermore it has been said, ‘Whoever divorces his wife, let him give her a certificate of divorce.’ But I say to you that whoever divorces his wife for any reason except sexual immorality causes her to commit adultery; and whoever marries a woman who is divorced commits adultery.
*LUKE 16:18 NKJV*
18 “Whoever divorces his wife and marries another commits adultery; and whoever marries her who is divorced from her husband commits adultery.
*1 CORINTHIANS 7:10-16 NKJV*
10 Now to the married I command, yet not I but the Lord: A wife is not to depart from her husband.
11 But even if she does depart, let her remain unmarried or be reconciled to her husband. And a husband is not to divorce his wife.
12 But to the rest I, not the Lord, say: If any brother has a wife who does not believe, and she is willing to live with him, let him not divorce her.
13 And a woman who has a husband who does not believe, if he is willing to live with her, let her not divorce him.
14 For the unbelieving husband is sanctified by the wife, and the unbelieving wife is sanctified by the husband; otherwise your children would be unclean, but now they are holy.
15 But if the unbeliever departs, let him depart; a brother or a sister is not under bondage in such cases. But God has called us to peace.

Jesus' Teaching on Divorce
19 1 Now it came to pass, when Jesus had finished these sayings, that He departed from Galilee and came to the region of Judea beyond the Jordan.
2 And great multitudes followed Him, and He healed them there.
3 The Pharisees also came to Him, testing Him, and saying to Him, "Is it lawful for a man to divorce his wife for just any reason?"
4 And He answered and said to them, "Have you not read that He who made them at the beginning 'made them male and female,'
5 and said, 'For this reason a man shall leave his father and mother and be joined to his wife, and the two shall become one flesh'?
6 So then, they are no longer two but one flesh. Therefore what God has joined together, let not man separate."
7 They said to Him, "Why then did Moses command to give a certificate of divorce, and to put her away?" 8 He said to them, "Moses, because of the hardness of your hearts, permitted you to divorce your wives, but from the beginning it was not so.
9 And I say to you, whoever divorces his wife, except for sexual immorality, and marries another, commits adultery; and whoever marries her who is divorced commits adultery."

Brii, my sweet sister, I pray for you, your heart, and your marriage. I know the pain of being betrayed and I am going to ask you to run to GOD and cling to HIM. I can imagine you don't have too much time on your hands because of your little ones but make every effort to dive into scripture and pray daily. Just like our bodies need food and water for strength, we must also intake the BREAD OF LIFE (THE WORD) everyday. God will provide you with the comfort and guidance you need in your life.
You stated that you love your husband so much, if so, sister, I encourage you to fight for your marriage. I know it's so much easier said than done, but my sister do not give up, get on your knees and fight. Remember scripture says Love covers a multitude of sins -1 Peter 4:8. We are all fallen but through the mercy of Christ we are covered by HIS blood. If your husband is willing to fight, then sister fight for this marriage together. Seek professional help from your church or from sources they can refer you to. I believe it is important to work through it. Most importantly, like I mentioned earlier, turn to GOD and cling to HIS WORD, TRUTH AND PROMISES. HE will never leave or forsake you! Recently, in my personal walk, I had been praying and crying out for healing and comfort, but as I have been reading scripture, praying, listening to sermons while driving or cooking, I have been learning the importance of changing my perspective and outlook of my situation/storm. I am now praying and crying that I may seek the healer and comforter more than the healing and comforting itself.
Last point I would like to mention, marriage is a sacred covenant between you and God. the enemy knows it. and one of his missions is to attack marriages. the enemy comes to steal, kill and destroy. but don't you forget, we serve a MIGHTY GOD. HE will give us victory for HIS glory. My sister, may you seek to do HIS WILL for your life.
***Extend the same grace GOD has shown you, to your husband. It is hard in our earthly flesh but through Christ it is possible. I am telling you, diving into the word has been transforming my heart and mind. I love you my sister and my heart cries out for the situation but I know GOD is greater. Let us pray that we become women with a gentle and quiet spirit.

You have to pray for each other's salvation and spiritual awakening every day. Don't ever give up because God can change anyone. One day I layed my hand on my spouse's shoulder and said to him, "Be born again in the name of Jesus." And he has been changed by God's grace ever since. He is so much more forgiving now, so much less angry.
I know someone he was delivered of alcohol and smoking addiction through water baptism. We are to baptize in the name of Jesus not in the name of the father, son and holy spirit, I heard its the way to baptize.
I know someone, he was on the very verge of suicide, overwhelmed with anger, confusion and addiction he uttered a prayer, "God save me." Well God heard him, revealed Himself to him and changed him that very moment. He is a new person to this day, not lost in anger and addiction anymore.
These are ways I have heard of people being changed by God's grace. I hope it helps your marriage in some way, try any of it. God's blessings to you n good luck!

I feel your pain. I’m in the same boat. I married a woman that had 3 kids with another man. We also have 3 kids together. After almost 10 years and a lot of issues especially because of her kids.

My wife is very emotional and makes her decisions on emotions. I’m trying really hard right now to keep my marriage together but I’m not sure she will stay. She is very selfish!

[@CG-sr4mv]

No I really don't think it is! I think when that happens it was satan working through that person to deceive you and certainly was not your sin or your fault! When you're being abused, feeling torn down, how can you fulfill God's purposes in your life? It takes all your energy just to get through a day! People have mentioned on here about how Jesus went through abuse. However that was all for Gods great purpose. In these circumstances there is no greater purpose. It is just one person dominating or taking advantage of another. That does nothing but enable the abuser to continue to abuse. I personally cant see how that does good for the Kingdome of God. That's just my thoughts.

[@omnizimri]

This, this right here is what keeps Christian women in abusive relationships. 'Don't ever consider divorce, not matter what. Endure for Christ.' No. The church has made an idol of marriage, placing its value above that of the people in it. Are there hard times in marriages through which people should stick it out? Absolutely. But the idea of a woman staying with an abuser being pleasing to God is sickening. 'Well, that's not what Piper was saying.' Look into other things he has said. He believes that a woman has to endure verbal abuse and 'perhaps being smacked one night.' This is absolutely not God-honoring. Note also that while the interviewer asked about 'spouses,' Piper talked about women - not a word saying that a husband should endure.
I also take issue with saying that the original point of marriage was a picture of Christ and the church. Adam and Eve were the first marriage, before sin, before the need for Christ. Their marriage was a union of two beings who were 100% equal images of God. ('Let us make man in our image. Male and female he created them.') No need for a picture of Christ and the church at that point. Can marriage be a picture of Christ and the church? Yes, if the man is being Christlike. But some marriages paint that picture black. If it is possible at all, victims need to escape for their own safety and so that Christ can shine more brightly.

I have to disagree with the pastor, because I certainly believe God allows a provision of divorce in extreme circumstances. In cases of extreme abuse, it is certainly not God's purpose for the individual to endure it for her entire life.

But then it started going down hill, main reason I didn’t approve of a lot of behaviors they did. My wife has made many statements that she raises her kids how she and her ex want to. What do they need me for? Just money support? We had 3 small kids of our own 5,4,2. I tried leaving her back in 22 and after a week I saw my error and didn’t want to break up a family. I tried really hard to change my ways and be more accepting of things and was seeing progress for past 6 months before she went to get papers for divorce. She doesn’t want to go see counseling together. She doesn’t wear her rings and has told me she doesn’t feel married to me. Also she says she is a Christian but every time I show her biblical topics that contradict her belief she gets mad and says Bible is wrong. At this point I’m at a loss.

There is no guarantee he'll become a Christian. The example her husband's abusive ways could teach the children to be abusive to their future spouses. Therefore, another generation of abusers have emerged. I endured an abusive marriage for decades and my daughter married abusive men. I divorced my husband, however I remained single. It is easy for Pastor John to stay in an abusive marriage is the right path to go. It would be interesting to see his response if he was subjected to abuse for decades and to see his children to become abusive towards others. Who knows abusive people tend to become criminals. That's all we need is to make our society even more corrupt with out of control crime. Pastor John Piper is legalistic at best!

Piper was known for retracting comments on spousal abuse years ago. He was confronted because he said to stay in the abuse for a season. Then retracted and said later to seek shelter. Whatever.

[@janeth3139]

My sister has been married to a very controlling and at times verbally/ emotionally abusive man for 14 years. My sister is a believer. Her husband wasn't a believer when they got married but supposedly he did become one later. He did get baptised. However, he reflects very little growth that he is allowing God to transform him into a new creation through Christ. Even though he has always been a challenge they were making things work up until 2 months ago when he started giving her the silent treatment and moved out of their bedroom to another room in the house. Since then she has begged for an explanation as to what changed and he's been very reluctant to provide answers. When he does talk he blames her for all their problems. She's asked him to do marriage counseling and he refuses. She's asked if he wants a divorce and he won't say. However, she did ask if they sold their house would the next place they move be together or separate and he said separate so it's like he is double minded. It's like he is playing chicken with her and being mean to the point of making the living conditions intolerable so she'll leave so he won't look like the bad guy. She told him early on when this started that divorce wasn't an option because she takes her vows seriously even if he is difficult. However she wonders how long she has to put up with a spouse who has clearly checked out of their relationship and has no interest to work on it. Can you please provide any biblical guidance or reference material I can read. She doesn't want to make the wrong decision and I don't want to give her bad advice. Unfortunately they had stopped going to church regularly so they don't have that relationship to fall back on. My sister has started going back to church with their daughter but her husband refuses to go with them. I've encouraged her to speak to a pastor at this church but she hasn't done it yet. She did meet with a pastor of a church she used to attend and he said it sounds like she has a decision to make as to whether to stay or leave. She also went to a marriage councelor on her own and was again told she'll have to make a decision as to when to end things but no one will tell her specifics so my sister feels lost. I have watched sermons about marriage and mainly the focus as to whether the covenant relationship can be broken is if there is infidelity (he says he hasn't cheated), or if an unbelieving spouse walks out, or death of a spouse. There isn't much said about abuse unless it is physical, which he hasn't done. There is only so much she can do if the other spouse isn't willing to work on the problem. They live in zip code 27312 if you know of any good churches or Christian counselors you could recommend. Thanks for your time. And at the very least I welcome prayers for reconciliation, repentance and forgiveness on all sides.

WillWonders NeverCease? Hello, God bless you. I don't know how you, your sister, or perhaps even her husband may feel at this point. surely it has been difficult -- to say the least. But understand that there is still hope. Comfort your sister with the word of God and with friendship during these especially difficult times. Let it be known that only God can give her true peace, happiness and contentment even in a difficult marriage. Trials a d difficulties will never cease in this life, but, take heart for Jesus has overcome the world. Understand that, all things work together for good for those who love God, in that it will help sanctify us and build patience and character and mild us into the person He Brant's us to be!
As Jesus remaines faithful to his bride (the Church) who has many times been unfaithful, ungrateful, and discontent, she too must show sacrificial, agape love. The same type of love that sent Jesus Christ to the cross to die for us while we were yet still sinners, she must show that love even though the spouse may seem undeserving of it. If the unbelieving spouse wants to leave, though you have sought all measures to keep the marriage in tact, let him/she leave (speak with your pastor or wise biblical teachers whom you trust to give you advice on this).

[@wassha09]

I’ve been married for about one year and 4 months to my wife. We have a newborn and she wants a divorce. I truly believe that she has a lot of mental and emotional health problems that she refuses to deal with from her past, and has dumped all of her hurt, pain, and trauma on me. She also has been showing signs of being depressed and of a narcissist. She’s made statements of not wanting to be alive anymore and hearing voices in her head.
I’m very concerned for her and our son.
I know that marriage isn’t perfect and takes lots of practice and patience. I’m here and have never wavered in my faith that God can turn this thing around.
I have never said that I wanted to leave my marriage every time something didn’t go my way or if my wife did something that I didn’t like.
I know that God has put us together for a reason, and I’m praying that He continues to do a work on the both of us. Whatever issues my wife is going through, I pray that He can help her because she has shut me totally out of her life and is trying to do the same when it comes to our son.
I also believe that she is at the point, that she will not listen to anyone. She has blocked my entire family and church family off of Facebook. She’s running from something but refuses to communicate with me or anyone who gives her Godly advice and wisdom.
If she is one of those individuals that has to go back into the world for Satan to completely beat her up so that she can learn how to totally surrender and depend on God and not on her own self will, I will always be here to be her husband.
Unfortunately, I did have to leave our home to stay with my parents. She became physically violent towards me and has locked me out of our home.
For any believers in Christ who know the power of prayer, please keep us in prayer. All I want is my wife back. Any words of encouragement would be greatly appreciated.
Is there anyway that I could try to get her some help even if she refuses it?

[@kristinakane7968]

I hope you are showing grace to your wife, but also to yourself; since she is refusing help, she is willfully stunting her healing and that is not your fault.
If your insurance covers it, she should probably be referred to a psychiatrist for the schizophrenic symptoms.
I will add your family to my prayer list.

My wife put in for a divorce 8-2-24. She saw a lawyer while I was out in California for a moving trip for my parents. Only way I found out was her location services showing she is at a lawyer, that was 3 weeks ago. For the past 2 1/2 weeks she has been telling me how much I didn’t do for her but I’m the one that as a man with no kids took on her and her 3 kids almost 10 years ago and for first 3 years the relationship between me and kids were great. But then it started going down hill, main reason I didn’t approve of a lot of behaviors they did. My wife has made many statements that she raises her kids how she and her ex want to. What do they need me for? Just money support? We had 3 small kids of our own 5,4,2. I tried leaving her back in 22 and after a week I saw my error and didn’t want to break up a family. I tried really hard to change my ways and be more accepting of things and was seeing progress for past 6 months before she went to get papers for divorce. She doesn’t want to go see counseling together. She doesn’t wear her rings and has told me she doesn’t feel married to me. Also she says she is a Christian but every time I show her biblical topics that contradict her belief she gets mad and says Bible is wrong. At this point I’m at a loss.

Now he said he don't want a divorce now and that he will change. I know only God has the power to change someone and iv heard him tell me this same sad story many times.. iv had signs that he may have been cheating and he has a description of a narcissist. I want to do God's will and please him. I don't want to work out this marriage anymore. And I have divorce papers. I know I am to forgive and I have forgiven him for treating me so badly these past 15 yrs but I really need peace to focus on God and his will for my life..

In Matthew 19 Jesus said adultery is grounds for divorce and remarriage

Thank you thank you , I was waiting for this message , I needed these answers of hope ...

[@NewtralHuman]

This statements int eh video are epic
@ 1:23 Planned sin is not accompanied by any promises of hope.
@ 1:34 Maximizing your earthly happiness is not the goal of life or marriage. Maximizing your eternal happiness is.
@ 4:08 Marriage may disappoint with a 1000 tribulations but hope filled obedience to God will never disappoint us.
I read too many posts in the comments section that have the following mindset that seems dogmatic and less so pragmatic:
- Complete reliance on God without doing the human work needed to make progress. I could be completely mistaken here. It is possible that the human work is being done but not mentioned in the post.
- Romanticizing and idealizing the relationship. "I will always love you and wait for you to reconcile." This trends toward being a doormat and not accepting or putting responsibility where it is due. People need to take responsibility for their actions. In some cases divorce is needed to make progress. In other cases a divorce leaves a trail of destruction behind when the spouse with the greater leverage leaves the marriage with benefits.
- Sincere question: do most people seek counseling when their marriage is in turmoil? Narcissists never do! Instead they build an entourage of flying monkeys to enable their destructive behavior.

I wonder, hearing these messages, why I should want to get married? I get that it is a “path to holiness”, but certainly it’s not the only path. It just seems like way more trouble than it is worth. Why take the risk that your partner is going to be a trash human being, and that “God is going to work in their lives, by making your life a living hell.” God doesn’t need me involved in someone’s else’s life to “fix” them. That is God’s job. My job is to be available and open to the leading of the spirit for the occasional time, and the few relationships God is calling me to be involved with, but I can do all that as a friend. I don’t need a marriage, and I’m sorry it seems like the biggest benefit to Christian marriage is just the sex. If that is the price of sex, it’s not worth the trouble. I get that some of them are great, some aren’t, but the ones that aren’t just look like way more bother, and far too much to risk.

How can God teach us unconditional love if he gives us a spouse who meets all of our conditions? We grow in the struggles. We become more like Christ when we love those that rebel against us and betray us. In the covenant of marriage is where real growth, humility and unconditional love can flourish. When facing trials, we become selfish and sinful in return which allows strife to flourish. However, anyone who is in a marriage with someone breaking the law should not enable that. There are laws in place for a reason and the spouse should take action against that in love.

You don't have to get married the Apostle Paul wasn't married to one. He recommends marriage to avoid fornication. Romans 7:1-2 and Hebrews 13:4

[@JudeKnowsWhatYouDoNot]

@@missjosey33 I think ur mistaken...god did not command us to tolerate evil...for by tolerating evil we r tolerating the devil...even god has conditional love...thats y most pple r going to hell, because they do not meet these conditions...anyway...back to the devil...u see, the more u tolerate a certain evil is the more this tolerance perverts society into thinking that said evil is a normal thing...this is what the devil seeks to do with the tolerance of adultery in christian marriages...since Christians actually coerce themselves into tolerating adultery, god is not the one benefiting but the devil, if u think abt it...thats y adultery more rampant in christian countries than in moslem countries...coz they don't tolerate it

[@faithtiltheend3044]

Marriage is a sacrifice and true love is a sacrifice ... with that said no one has to get married. God does not call us to get married. You can serve Christ as a single person and if that is your calling it is a blessing

[@umaikeruna]

What if you were forced into marriage through guilt, just to help someone with visa issues, cried on the day, asked for a postponement the day before but were denied, and then said the words, but vehemently didn't believe them. Then, every day since (2. 5 years) has been a living nightmare of constant emotional abuse resulting in illness and the loneliest days of my life. We've never even had a conversation let alone a happy day together. Im not divorcing yet, but I never felt it was a marriage to begin with... I'm crushed.

[@evapeace2385]

It was against your Will so that marriage is not real. But seek God! 🙏🏾

Please pray for my wife Bonnie for our marriage of 43 years that gods will be done and his love and forgiveness be pored out amen

Why is there so little information about the decision for a man to divorce his alcoholic wife?

[@ShawnMelton-sv9ck]

(1 Corinthians 7:15) But if the unbeliever leaves, let it be so. The brother or the sister is not bound in such circumstances; God has called us to live in peace.

[@Jenn-920]

I’ve been considering divorce. My husband is in prison. We have been together 14 years, married 11. My daughter does not like him and I finally have her loving me again after hard work in my life. I cut my husband out of my life about 2 months ago. I picked up the phone 2 days ago. I half regret it, half don’t. Ironically enough, I messaged my deacon this morning, very unrelated to my marriage out of the blue. I use you tube quite often though out the day, in regards to my recovery. I was scrolling and your video popped up. I think I may now have to message my deacon again. I am very confused again. Why is life so complicated.

[@kerenkremer3386]

Understanding what the Bible REALLY says about divorce is almost impossible unless you're familiar with Hebrew terms and concepts absent in Christianity, such as 'Agunah'. Time and again, I've found that Christian pastors often miss the true teachings of the Bible on this topic. I highly recommend Dr. Eitan Bar's short book, "Christian and Divorced: What the Bible REALLY Says About Divorce & Remarriage." He is a Jewish-Christian fluent in Hebrew. After reading about 20 different books on the subject, this one stands out as the best. I was even an early reader of it.

[@silvias2828]

Best one i've heard so far (and they were a loootttt)! Nailed it perfectly. And the best part is, the pastor sounds like he really believes every word, in a loving and caring way. We may not like it, but it's the truth. Oh well 😂

[@lisabobesa123]

Every time I listen to this I hear something different that I didnt hear the last time..very powerful thank you Jesus and thank you for John

[@tresfielder3148]

What I'm seeing on this comment thread is a lot of misery in marriage. I know a lot of people miserable in their marriage. Marriage is overrated.

[@piotrjanusz1362]

What to do in a situation when someone married a divorced person (the pastor gave his consent and married), and after some time it turns out that the marriage is a mistake, irreconcilable differences between the spouses (lack of appropriate biblical knowledge related to remarriage), the relationship is separated. Does such an eventuality justify a divorce? Can this be defined as the end of an adulterous relationship?
