inasmuch as God used marriage to show us what our relationship with Him is n should be, then we need to understand that since He (God) has not or does not cast us away irrespective of how we wrong Him everyday, then there is no reason for u to cast ur spouse away or dispose him or her off in case of inconvenience. there is no problem that is beyond solution, like someone said earlier that d problem is that most of those marriages r not founded on God, most people that call themselves Christians don't even know Him or hv d fear of God. if u r really a true child of God, if He is ur director then there is nothing His grace will not sufficiently provide for u to b able to stand at all times. ofcourse we all know that one cannot give what he/she doesn't hv. since God is love n d originator of marriage, then u need Him for ur marriage to succeed. if u want ur marriage to b successful;it will b, if u don't, nobody can help u cos d devil has vowed to destroy marriages cos he knows that any Godly marriage that succeeds will b a treat to hi kingdom because of agreement prayer n d Godly seeds they will raise as children. but wen he has succeeded in using u to truncate d little angels that would hv been a treat to him by making ur children traumatized by their parents separation then u hv a lot to answer before God. the bible said that if d foundation b destroyed, what can d righteous do. d problem marriages r facing today is a product of our wrong reasons of getting married n not been prepared or knowing what marriage entails before going in. just know that divorce is not an option before God, cos there is no problem He cannot solve but u r just telling Him he is incapable whereas u r d one who didn't invite or involve He that can make ur marriage work. again knowledge is very vital cos people perish for lack of knowledge. u need to study to show urself approved, read about marriage before entering n above all don't forget to always pray cos a little slumber n d one that has come to steal kill n destroy will take over.

Can you honestly forgive your wife 100% if you catch her red-handed with your friend?
What if you catch her a second time and a third time?

You will still care for her 100%?
Can you relate with her as if those things never happened even after a long time?

People keep saying A good Christian can't make mistakes in marriage, but it is pure fallacy.
Many Great Men of God have made errors.

My friend I am not married yet. There was a girl I dated till date she still after me cos she knew she goofed real time...few weeks into our rship she was guilty of the worst crime of a rship. I forgave her cos I realised I was even more into her. I treated her and never brought at any time cos I let go of it. She was more scared because I didn't react as a script would play out.

I strongly doubt the wife I will marry will do that...if such happens, don't think I will kill her...if I divorce I am not getting married. (Marriage na byforce self)?

Let me ask you, when such occur do you divorce your wife and then kill your friend? Is it worth it?

Jesus is my role model and not man of God. No real men of God would derail.


Are you the one that listen to people or do things to please others?

The Bible I realise has really beem twisted over the years
God was more concerned about adulterous men than the act of divorce itself but over the years the same adulterous men have de emphasised the adultery part and blackmailed women into staying in misery with adulterous men.

God spoke 5 chapters condemning adultery and unfaithfulness yet they never preach that. Hence people read the bible for yourselves

Beautiful

Happy Sunday cheesy

If one is truly a child of God, there is no divorce in the book of God and
more over God will be in their marriage, and once there is God there is
everything but since many people don't put God first their marriages
runs into problem and they resulted into divorce

90% of christian marriages are shameful in the sight of God. A big disgrace.

God is never present in almost all weddings conducted in churches these days.

Reasons are double standard by the pastors. Instead of preaching abstinence they encouraged a fornicationalized relationship and joining them together in marriage.

Most of the ladies getting married are either 3 weeks, 1 month, or 4 months pregnants. Having the odacity to stand before a holy God is pure nonsense.

If God was their to bless them at all, he would have used a big thunder to strike these couples.

Lets stop deceiving ourselves all in the name of marriage. Divorce is rampant these days in christedom even the so called pastoprenuer are not left out.

Divorce will continue. Let people keep deceiving themselves. God does not attend saturday wedding these days. Quote me anywhere.

He hates adultery, he hates fornication, he hates murder ''abortion''.

Tell me most of these couples dont do this. Even the week of their wedding they still display this fornicating traits going round to sleep with the so called love of their lives for the last time before saying i do.

The world system has entered the church and its a big shame. Divorce will never stop after all when a man is impotent they woman will pack her property and run, later divorce follow.

When a woman cannot conceive, the man sends her away to get another woman.

Are these ones christians? They are all eye sores in the sight of God.

hmm, bros so na u holy pass U wan tell me say u never chop woman punny Piety no go kill us 4 dis countrycry...

Why d hell do people marry In d first place with all dis surrounding it

Few of the Disadvantages of Marriage

>Fidelity is not a natural state for human beings, especially when they are young adults and their sex drive is at its strongest. Most married sex lives fade over time, which can lead to affairs and other forms of infidelity, such as the use of prostitutes, even in the most well-intentioned people.

>Many couples get stuck in a rut, repeating the same arguments over and over. The key differences in their personalities never go away. Petty problems, irritating habits, become magnified over time.

>Marriage restricts the freedom of individual. Single people can happily live their lives pretty much as they please without having to be concerned with the needs or wishes of others.

>Marriage means that couples have to deal with their partner’s family, which can be a source of problems and conflict.

>Getting married can add lots of extra bureaucracy and red tape to a relationship, especially when the wife changes her name and official documents such as social security, driving licenses have to be changed.

The Rev. Father said, yes, u can divorce but with this condition. That u will gather thesame exact crowd that witnessed the wedding (nobody should be absent) seated before thesame priest who joined the couple. Then the divorce procedures can commence.
any bible verse to support that?

'What God has joined together let no man put asunder'.
'For the Lord ur God hate divorce'.
'And I say unto u, Whosoever shal put away his wife, except it be for fornication, and whoso marrieth her which is put away doth commit adultery' (Math. 19 vs 9)

Separation could be a better option than divorce. May God help our homes in Jesus name

Use your instinct. Quit when you are fed up. Marriage is designed to be enjoyed and not endured.

Well sad. Divorce I keep iterating is the best thing that happened to the institution of marriage (a paradox I know, but it is what it is).

You are the one getting it wrong, I need you to understand that people can become what they never were or thought they'd be, there are factors that can contribute to that.

So tell me, those hardened criminals that later became pastors/preachers, the good girl that became a wh*re, the christian that became an atheist, the atheist that became a christian, etc?


These are divine interventions.. They were visited by a force (spiritual) that overpowered their weaknesses which was possible because they themselves wanted to be saved by God himself. Your comparison is not applicable in this issue.

Now can you compare this kind of change to that of a man or woman pretending to be mild only to show their true colors when they achieve their aim?

Can you become an armed robber? To become an armed robber is an after thought, it didn't happen overnight, it must have been formulated in your mind, debated and discussed in your spirit you before a stand to be a criminal is achieved.

Lastly on this.. I repeat, no one changes overnight, what you are today was as a result of multiple things you did, didn't do, acted on or didn't act on yesterday.. You're only manifesting the you of yesterday today.

Guess you weren't interested to hear that a girl I loved and dated cheated on several times...it was when It was clear she wasn't interested I left the rship....up to this very moment she wished we were back. All this while I stayed faithful. I didn't straff any hole not that I didn't have the opportunity. That's just me.

Marriage is critical before you divorce think and analyse carefully. You are in the shit not any one else.

I want to believe what you just said about divorce, but, I just can't!

Why do a lot of people nowadays end up twice, thrice or even four times divorced?

Cue in some sick excuses for homo sapiens we now call "celebrities" as a case in point. What is glamorous about J.Lo marrying Nick Cannon as hubby no (?)

By the way, anyone who calls himself a Christian should live by the Word of God, or he/she quits Christianity. Please remember to look at the topic again.

Divorce came as a result of lack of spiritual consciousness, before gettin married it is very important for one to go the oracle n deities to consult if such person wil b compatible wit him or not, d moment dis is done I don't tink d issues of divorce can come in...pastor has no spiritual eyes to see this, because et they r not spiritually conscious....I wil urge Nigerian, African to go back to our culture because African is more Holy n Potent than religion
