i believe i am, getting married because i love,cherish and wish to spend my natural life with a well deserved companion..Kids are added advantage.I can not and will not,in all my existence in this life and in the after divorce my husband on that groun.Impotency is not and will not be the basis to measure my marriage.It won't even bring chaos.It sure can bring one thing and that's redemption.I will prove to him that he has got me,we must find a way to have children of our own,if he choose to be open minded.Impotency to me is Nothing.Not even my parents,friends will ever know nada!Not even the gods!!

Impotency before marriage - YES, impotency occurring during the marriage - NO.

Don't go further for the truth.

What if you're the impotent party? So she can go ahead and have her child. Afterall we guys understand

@OP
Yes , it is wrong to end a marriage because of impotency. Marriage is a total package.
Truly if am the impotent one,i we advice her to divorce me,but if she refuses then as a Woman she knows what to do for us to have a Child even if I'm not the biological Father of the Child.In my own dictionary there's nothing like love in a marriage with At least a Child.

Take note: The issue raised throughout was about "having children"!

She never said she would not go out to "satisfy her sexu@l urge"... which is a natural thing and you cant expect a just married woman to be without shex, for life.
To think so is to fool oursleves, even the "Mother/Nuns" in the convent have found a way to circumvent that vow. wink wink wink

Being a christian doesn't mean you should be mumu, even Jesus was never mumu as people of now a days Christianity, I remember dem David, Solomon, Elijah, and Moses, all of dem sharp. If your marriage have issue, divorced and get a new life, there is always room for forgiveness

For b.a xtians, there is no place for divorce but for sepertn without divorce.
Impotent Abraham was not divorced by Sarah.

The Bible said go ye into the world and multiply. Well that's an aside. No doubt marriage is meant to be for better for worse. Meaning once you've in, you can't get out. Of course the bible knew this was harsh and created an exception, cases of infidelity. Well if there's room for one exception. Surely enough to accommodate more. One of the elements of a valid marriage is consummation and I see no way an impotent man can achieve that and so the marriage should be treated as never existed in the first place. So a spouse can want out.

'one of d elements of a valid marriage is procreation' is d opinion of men. D primary purpose for marriage is companionship. -' it is not good for a man to be alone.I will make him an help suitable for him.'

My answer to your question is capital YES because the holy bible especially the New Testament which is the main constitution that governs christians did not mention 'impotency' as a reason for divorce.
and if the woman is barren and the man is good to go?

Freshboi:


Sometimes,I wonder how some people can be this daft? Though I do not doubt healing as a Christian,you still need the expertise of medical officers. Put yourself in the shoes of a woman whose husband has been discovered to be impotent. Would she be happy? Will she enjoy the union knowing fully well that her husband is shooting 'blanks'? Change your thinking....

impotency is when a man is unable to keep himself erect during sex, women dont have erection problems

As a Christian, u are not under the world's counsel and government system but under the Kingdom of God governmental system. You see, in our kingdom, there is what is called health care scheme, which is better than any health scheme the world can provide. It is called HEALING! If there is a case of impotency, God will heal it and rectify the faults you just hav to bring ur husband to the point where his faith can allow access to the Healing powers of God. I just witness such a starling situation, after many years, a lady who culdnt conceive is now pregnant bucuz of her confession of faith!
.

Even without faith it can still happen. It's mostly biology. I have seen it in people of no faith! I'm in a position to know.

Give Caesars's thing to Caesar: good Christians are counselled to find ways to obey human laws without compromising religious law.

I know a man in 9ja (the type that spends lots of days away in these Pentecostal church camps and can't be reached on phone). He waited for over 10 years for his wife to conceive, no way. He later tried IVF and got a set of twins.

Some people use IVF but won't tell the truth but testify in church as a miracle.

Having said that, faith is good for biology/body by helping to ameliorate hopelessness and stress, which promotes good health.

Good health gives the body the best chance to function properly.

haba... That a man can pound well n even pour does not mean he cant be impotent.. Nyways.. Sure hope the impotency meant here is the ability to pour or recieve what can germinate into a foetus

There is a difference btw impotence and infertility.A potent man can be infertile; an impotent man can be fertile.

I do not think that it is wrong, but if they do decide to stay married the woman should be allowed to have her own children and service partner, body no be firewood jare! No woman should suffer and die of Konji because her husband has a weak diccck

For Christian men who will not stay with a barren woman despite the bible preaches that there will not be any barrenness in the land,i ask,if you find yourself impotent,do you expect your wife to sacrifice and stay with you?Without cheating,ever loving,caring and understanding.LETS learn to make the best out of any situation in marriage.There is always a favourable way out for both parties to enjoy and to live on.

The question here should be: was there ever a marriage to start with?

In my view, a number of factors must be considered before someone can truly claim that he or she is married.

1) The union must be one entered with full consent.
2) The couples must be able to consummate the union via the conjugal act.
3) The couples must have attained the age of reasoning.

Without those 3, there is no marriage. A man who is impotent would have defaulted on at least one of the above. The lady would be right to ask for a dissolution of the union as divorce does not come to play here.

It begs the question: who defines marriage, God or the State?

Thanks @lynpetra for being different. So many Christians scream "LOVE" daily in public but when the chance presents itself to demonstrate that Christ-like sacrificial love...they show there true demoniac colour!

BTW: @OP, impotence is a different situation from infertility. I noticed many posters here ignorantly use both terms interchangeably.

But the secularists are not impressed with the healthcare system catering for the Christian body. Ebola, Hiv, Cancer, etc still plague the church, where is the healthcare system for it?

A BOLD YES as long as he does it far far away without doing it to her face

95 out of a 100 guys will cheat on their wives even if they have the sexiest women in the world as wives

Beating up a lady is a different ball game. It is barbaric,idiotic,foolish,beastly and even totally cray and i will never advice any lady to tolerate that shit.

Once could be a mistake but the second time shows its a habit and such lady should run before its too late for her but sharp tongue ladies should also mellow down but no matter how sharp tongued a lady can be,no man ought to beat up a lady for any reason.

How did you end up marrying an impotent man in the first place?

Except the person became impotent after marriage, then I say, till death do you part.
