put away his wife, let him give
her a writing of divorcement: But

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.
(Matthew 5:31,32)

you? And
they said, Moses suffered to write
a bill of divorcement, and to put
her away.
And Jesus answered and said
unto them, For the hardness of
your heart he wrote you this
precept.
But from the beginning of the
creation God made them male and
female.
For this cause shall a man leave
his father and mother, and cleave
to his wife; And they twain shall
be one flesh: so then they are no
more twain, but one flesh.
What therefore God hath

to another, she committeth

(Mark
10:2-12) |
And unto the married I
command, yet not I, but the Lord,
Let not the wife depart from her
husband: But and if she depart,
let her remain unmarried, or be
reconciled to her husband: and let
not the husband put away his wife.
But to the rest speak I,
not the Lord: If any brother hath
a wife that believeth not, and she
be pleased to dwell with him, let
him not put her away.
And the woman which hath an
husband that believeth not, and if
he be pleased to dwell with her,
let her not leave him.
For the unbelieving husband
is sanctified by the wife, and the
unbelieving wife is sanctified by
the husband: else were your
children unclean; but now are they
holy.
But if the unbelieving depart,,
let him depart. A brother or a
sister is not under bondage in
such cases: but God hath called us
to peace.
For what knowest thou, 0
wife, whether thou shalt save thy
husband? or how knowest thou, 0
man, whether thou shalt save thy
wife?
But as God hath distributed to
every man, as the Lord hath called
every one, so let him walk. And so
ordain I in all churches.

Corinthians 7:1-17) |

The Bible and
Divorce |
For how
long is marriage supposed to last? "By law a married woman is
bound to her husband as long as he is alive, but if her
husband dies,
she is released from the law of
marriage."
Romans 7:2, NIV
Christ
recognizes only one valid ground
for divorce.
"But I tell you that
anyone who divorces his wife,
except for marital unfaithfulness,
causes her to become an
adulteress, and anyone who marries
the divorced woman commits
adultery."
Matthew 5:32, NIV
God is
particularly displeased with
people who divorce spouses who
have always been faithful.
"Why has God abandoned us?"
you cry. I'll tell you why; it is
because the Lord has seen your
treachery in divorcing your wives
who have been faithful to you
through the years, the companions
you promised to care for and keep.
You were united to your wife by
the Lord. In God's wise plan, when
you married, the two of you became
one person in His sight. And what
does He want? Godly children from
your union. Therefore guard your
passions! Keep faith with the wife
of your youth. For the Lord, the
God of Israel, says He hates
divorce and cruel men. Therefore
control your passions—let there be
no divorcing of your wives."
Malachi 2:14-16, TLB
If a
spouse leaves a marriage for a
reason other than adultery they
must remain single.
"Now, for those who are
married I have a command, not just
a suggestion. And it is not a
command from me, for this is what
the Lord Himself has said: A wife
must not leave her husband. But if
she is separated from him, let her
remain single or else go back to
him. And the husband must not
divorce his wife."
1 Corinthians 7:10-11, TLB
Being
married to an unbelieving mate is
not an acceptable reason for
divorce.
"If a Christian has a wife
who is not a Christian, but she
wants to stay with him anyway, he
must not leave her or divorce her.
And if a Christian woman has a
husband who isn't a Christian, and
he wants her to stay with him, she
must not leave him. For perhaps
the husband who isn't a Christian
may become a Christian with the
help of his Christian wife. And
the wife who isn't a Christian may
become a Christian with the help
of her Christian husband.
Otherwise, if the family
separates, the children might
never come to know the Lord;
whereas a united family may, in
God's plan, result in the
children's salvation."
1 Corinthians 7:12-14, TLB5
