Will God Forgive A Divorce
|
|
God will forgive any sin BUT does that mean you can continue in that circumstances, I don't think SO Forgiveness comes with True repentance, If husband or wife leaves regardless of unfaithfulness can one re-marry.
Mat 19:9
makes it clear You Cannot if a Husband finds his wife committed fornication and is not willing to forgive her then he will not commit Adultery.
1 Cor 7
If no fornication/Adultery Both are to remain single or reconcile if there is no fornication committed.
However according to the bible if an unbelieving partner leaves the marriage they are not in bondage.
It does not typify remarriage as an option. |

If he's a believer, and he hasn't committed adultury against you, but he doesn't honor you as Christ honors the church, then I don't believe Jesus won't forgive you, but you won't be able to remarry. You can only remarry if he is unfaithful to you, and then you divorce him. Jesus hates divorce, but He permits it, but I believe you should be praying for you husband. Pray for the Holy Spirit to come upon him and convict him. Pray for Jesus to give you more of His anointing and character also. Jesus puts up with His bride even though we dishonor Him all the time! Does the Holy Spirit tell you to leave your husband or to stay and trust God? I believe you should stick it out! |

Matt,
If you are going to verbally abuse someone what's the difference to hitting someone?
You equate disclipine to verbal abuse NOT SO. Who said you disclipine your wife through abuse? Is that correct? did Christ abuse his bride the church, you, anyone.
You are a petty excuse for a divorced man, I'd divorce you myself because your unrepentant bitter and ignorance!
That's what makes it worse, you just don't get it do you? Abuse is abuse Love is Love, you try to make things better through understanding peace and love not Verbal ABUSE! |

God help me to explain why a marriage is insoluable and why God frowns on it.!Can you divide GOD-NO-lets go back to genesis God created Man to his image and likeness then he creates from within Man, using some of His attributes from man he creates HER: eg tenderness patience creativity beauty, presents her to him as a mate saying increase and multiply you are now 2 in one flesh, "what God had joined together let no man put asunder.Adams remark "Bone of my bone"This brings me back to the top of the circle. Can you divide God.This is what marriage in Free choice is, God working within TWO.Choose wisely explore all areas, before you say. I love you and I do.B/C from here on in, you weather the storm in all adversities.Peace |

I have a question? Who on here has asked about the woman? My ex-wife divorced me because she said I was abusive verbally. Yea, a whole marriage down the drain because she says I was verbally abusive. Well, you may say, "Good for her." Well, I'm here to tell you that she did things that were dispicable and I never left her. I stuck it through because love is not binding to how I feel. It is either eternal or not. My father beat me when I was a kid. Guess what? He's still my father and I have loved him my whole life. He is a new man now and we have a great relationship. |

Yes He will, however if you are a born again believer and you want to divorce on any other ground the Adultery or your faith, it is required of you to stay single, so before making the definate step try intersession, it saved my mothers marriage. |

Heather is justifying leaving her husband because she needs to feel better about the fact she's abandoning him. He is mentally ill, a great opportunity to show God's love/Christian marital commitment to the world. How does she know God was not going to work a miracle within her marriage? Personally, I feel she might have met someone since his sickness grew, thus looking for an excuse to leave her estranged spouse. You're STILL married to him in God's eyes Heather, stop fooling yourself. |

WHY NOT? Divorce is every much a sin as the rest of the sins. We ask daily for forgiveness. I hope. God said if we confess our sins He will fogive us our sins. You do not have to divorce your spouse but you can separate from him. Only if you catch him committing adultery are we at liberty to divorce. It says it in the book. God does not want his poeple to be abused or to ever suffer, needlessly. Use your common sense and ask God for spiritual wisdom in this matter. |

My husband tried to kill himself 20 times over the last five years. I just filed for divorce today. I did all I could to save the marriage but his heart is hard and his mind is not sound. God gave me many confirmations that I had His blessing so I have peace. |

AMRUT MACWAN If you say that the wife should stay with the husband and be 'faithful' until death what do you have to say to the husband who is not being faithful? This man, we have been told, has been physically and mentally abusive. This is not being faithful to his wife. Faithfulness does not only refer to not seeking sex outside marriage. What happened to the 'love and cherish' part of the wedding vows? |

God can and does forgive sin and divorce is one of them. However, you or others may have to bear the consequences of the sin. What I would suggest is you seperate yourself,(physically IF he is abusing you physically), from your husband. Than you both get marital counseling from a qualified counselor. Divorce is not the anwer for this problem. (Divorce, in this case, is like taking an asprin for a headache - it only provides provides temporary relief, but may cover up the real problem. |

Yes. God forgive all our sins. Divorce is haven for attorney and hell for family. so God has join together that man must not separate. if we do so we are braking God's law. No divorce forever unless spoouse dies. Death is the only thing that can end a marriage. you promised before God that you will faithful to eachother until death. the two became one so they are no longer two, but one.....bible says GOD HATES DIVORCE. |

I would like to ease the pain of all divorced people. God forgives. Adultery is a sin, and it is forgiveable. Divorce is not a sin. God forgives it all. If a person needs to divorce on the grounds of mental or physical cruelty, they can re-marry. Only God judges, not man.
Moderator - "Divorce is not a sin". Carol that isn't a true statement. Sometimes divorce is sin. |

1 tim.5:8 Abandonment = denied faith= unbeilever=let go if he chooses. 1Cor 7:15.1cor6:14.I had a talk with a friend that showed me scripture that said; sinners{adultery, abuse,drunkers....} were stoned. so that divorce was not needed.so when Christ said that [to hard hearted people], it was saying that it was not to be taken lighty. so if some one says you can't divorce are they saying you have to kill that person to get out of the pain, I am divorced, I'm glad God has mercy !!! |

The idea that God will forgive divorce is true enough. For those who disagree with remarriage, the issue is that divorce does not disolve the "one flesh" relationship and that even after divorce (a civil procdure) you still have a mate. That is why it is thought to remarry is adultery. |

In Malachi 2, the Lord said that he hates divorce as well as violence. People usually quote the fact that God hates divorce. However, divorce is the consequence resulted from violence, immorality, and other sins. God hates both the causes and the consequences because it disrupts individuals, families and socieities. God sees deeper beyond the surface. He understands. He also holds those who cause divorce responsible. However, He forgives them if they repent. seble5457 |

Sister, dear Sister..God will forgive you no matter what reason you filed for divorce. Contact me rache7576
I don't discuss divorce publicly |

There is no repented sin that God won't forgive. My wife was married for 10 years to a very violent man. Her entire marriage to him was nothing but abusive in every form imaginable. She prayed for a very long time for God to get her out of that marriage and God did. I don't believe its ever God's will for anyone to remain in a relationship that is damaging and life threatening. |

Part 2: June 19th will be our 19th anniversary & we are happier now then we've ever been. I knew that God could change my husband & He did. A good book to read is Stormie O'Martian's "The Power of a Praying Wife". I said those prayers every day (there's about 30, one for each day of the month) & still do. My husband now goes to church with us, reads his Bible and is trying to start a Christian motorcycle support group. God is awesome, trust in Him, not in man.
God bless. |

Part 1: I believe firmly in Malachi 2:16 and Matthew 19:26. My husband was abusive, too, but I stayed faithful to my vows, which I made not only to my husband but to God as well. There were many times I needed to be separated from my husband, but I always gave the situation to God. |

In my opinion ABUSE = ADULTERY. It would seem to me to be a valid cause for divorce, even tough not explicitly stated in the Bible. |

YOU ALREADY ARE! Savedbygrace, as your name says, so believe. you ARE saved by graced not by your good behaviour. |

He forgives murder, stealing, cheating, lying, adultery and other sins. Why would He not forgive His child or anyone from getting out of an abusive relationship and trying to stay alive? He is our Father and doesnt want His children hurt. God Bless and be with you. |

---Doris on 6/8/05 |
God's stance on leaving an abusive marriage is hotly debated, but I've heard messages from various preachers and they've all preached that divorce is spiritually acceptable if abuse is occurring and I believe in my Christian heart that this is true. Abuse is a violation of the most basic rule God taught "Do unto others as you would have done unto youself." |
