elfmann: What are the right reasons? Who made any reason right? . An abusive man is an abuse man just the way a madman is mad only with the right medication will he be cured,and the cure for an abusive man is violence then walk away. |

OLAADEGBU:No. The only room for divorce in the bible is fornication. Albeit, seperation can occur in lieu of the potency of the possibility of injury or death occuring. |

thesicilian:d man has even left her already filing for divorce nd nothing wl stop it.. Let her move on with her ex and other men she ws sleeping with while in marriage.. Woman who uses church as a cover up. God is watching u, her husband has move on. Most times if u dnt knw d nitty gritty of a story, think before u talk... Imagine where a married woman is getting advice frm, a forum full of singles, no wonder she want to kill d man @home... Smh I knw her husband for over 10yrs nd believe me u wl like him. Dis woman turned him into sometins else. Dnt bother lady. He is gone for a better life. 1 Like |

crackhaus: Times have changed, as far as I'm concerned the bolded part is crap. There is no excuse to remain in an abusive marriage Marriage is essentially a contract therefore it should not be a do-or-die affair! 1 Like |

crackhaus: Under the Matrimonial Causes Act, what you call court marriage stands on the same pedestal as a marriage contracted in a recognised church for that purpose. So for those who are scared about the intricacies of untying the marriage knot, just stick to traditional marriage and then go for church blessing which without a recognized marriage certificate, confers no additional right at law. |

Does an abused husband have to stay with the wife? Because men are silent? |
Re: Is Abuse An Acceptable Reason For Divorce? by sarahade(f): 8:49am On Oct 12, 2016 |
scored1: There is no justification for abuse. No need for one side story if your wife cheats on you forgive her or divorce her shikena. No one has the right to abuse another even a child. |

DollyParton1:Maybe it would help if you provided a clear-cut definition of abuse. I have so far heard nothing I can consider objective and meaningful here. If a spouse slaps there other half once, it is not abuse? Ok, what if it happens twice? What is the qualitative difference? When is it abuse? ojuolu:A short, seemingly simple sentence - but packed with so much inanity, I don't even know where to start . Do we determine imperatives based on individual experiences? TV |
Re: Is Abuse An Acceptable Reason For Divorce? by ojuolu(m): 11:44am On Oct 12, 2016 |
TV01:Even if you use a more derogatory words than "inanity", I believe it will be unwise to join issue with you on social media on something sensitive as this. I am a christian husband and father. I am also a friend and colleague to few people going through one abusive relationship or the other. One thing i am not is a bigot. When we needed to be practical in protecting lives at the brinks of destructions, we should seek for divine wisdom and sense, not the bible say or a pastor says. Let the Spirit interpret the words. God gave us eyes so that we can see dangers, brain to know dangerous situation, legs and other useful body parts so that we can avert dangers where possible and when necessary. A man or woman who died in an abusive relationship will still face judgment and don't let us start to imagine the "questions and answers session" that may take place that very day. In as much as i do not support divorce, i will not encourage anyone, even you reading this to continue to stay in an abusive relationship (especially Physical and Emotional) in the name of one ideology or belief. We really dont have the resource or time to deal with abusive partners in this clime for now as to encourage anyone to keep holding on. Thank you. 3 Likes |

ojuolu:Your post still stands as poorly reasoned. I'll tell you why; 1. I never said anyone should stay in a dangerously abusive situation - my first post on this thread made that clear. 2. The bible is clear about the "till death do part" nature of marriage. 3. Claiming that The Holy Spirit may lead differently in individual instances, at best makes the bible meaningless, and at worst... 4. Individual responses simply means every man does what is right in his own sight - which is not actually Christian at all is it? 5. In as much as you do not support divorce, you do support it if... right? That's exactly what you are saying. 6. The Christian way is to set the right marital foundation, which will obviate any abuse, and seek remedies if it should occur. Happy to take back the use of inanity. Likewise you can replace your use of the word bigot! TV |

This is a personal decision.. But when a woman has a choice to pick between life & sudden death I think her number six should tell her to chose life. 2 Likes |

Jesus led by example so if you want an abused partner to stay in the marriage you have to willingly go into the ring daily,or at least weekly to be bashed by a fighter then you can advice. SMH a lot of pple can advice in as much as they aren't in that situation |

sarahade:If u run after rich guys for marriage, you call for battery when u think he should be content with ur pussyyy. So don't question him or pick fights..u will b battered. When u have only sex to offer and wanna determine what he does with his cash..u shld keep quiet and enjoy what is available to ya ..or When u overlook any Christian values when agreeing to a man..obviously u don't have any, so y demanding them from him after marriage? pple shld marry their friends or risk being... Lastly, u shldnt be abusive with words.. Just know that if u divorce and still wanna claim a Christian... No remarriage until he dies.. No sex either as u wait! |
Re: Is Abuse An Acceptable Reason For Divorce? by Nobody: 9:52pm On Oct 12, 2016 |
Charly68:Many choose to stay because of no where to go, no job, no cash or shame and for the fact they can't go to a penury state. Nigerian courts can't give u a redress..ask gbenga obasanjo wife. |

Seun: I use slap to buttress my point and you imported all sort of narrative to form an argument. When it comes to fight proper, do you think women respond with physical strength against their men or the look for the nearest weapon to dismember the men? |

elfmann: I Laff in chinese,so rich guys are abusive? But statistic show that most men that abuse their spouse are poor and frustrated What is the license to drilling the hole before is not doing what i want . Im neverabusive with words, and if j divorce i will claim christain if i want and even remarry and have sex. If God wants to punish me for avoiding suicide and finding love because i made a mistake he sure can. As long as im justified, and no one speaks for God. |

OLAADEGBU: Question: "Is abuse an acceptable reason for divorce?" Answer: The Bible is silent on the issue of spousal abuse as a reason for divorce, although it is obvious what God expects a marriage to look like (Ephesians 5:22–33), and abuse is contrary to everything godly. Physical violence against a spouse is immoral and should not be tolerated by anyone. No one should remain in an unsafe environment, whether it involves a family member, friend, employer, caregiver, or stranger. Physical abuse is also against the law, and civil authorities should be the first ones contacted if abuse occurs. |
