the only condition given for divorce is adultery or fornication and you are still encouraged to forgive that is why you are not allowed to have sexual contacts with any other person, looks like the op wanted to add domestic violence or threat to ones life but those are not included

like it said there, the law is not for everyone but for those who will keep it. And those who will keep it are those who are going to heaven. JESUS said that HE is the Shepard and it is only his sheep that will hear his voice. dogs and cats will not recognize the voice of the Shepard

where in the bible did u see church wedding
that was why I said according to the principles of your church, if your church believes only traditional wedding is needed so be it, but if it believes a wedding must be done in a church, Then do so. I'm not a judge over anyone. thanks

ENDING NOTE TO MARRIED/INTENDING TO MARRY CHRISTIANS
The reason why a good number of marriages end up in divorce is because the couples made divorce an option which is in compliance of the prophecy of the end time in 2 Timothy 3 were men become lovers of themselves only.
When you have a child who is sick do you throw the child away or do you run the corners of the earth seeking treatment?.Make that child your marriage!!. A Christian marriage is a covenant which should not be broken by any man according to the divine will of God. There is no problem without a solution. Your spouse cheated on you and you want a divorce even though he/she is remorseful, Why? ,because you can't forgive. Don't thou know it should be unheard of that a Christian cannot forgive?Jesus gave us the command to forgive 70 times 7 (as much as possible), When you say the Lord's prayer,don't you pray for God to forgive you your trespasses as you forgive those who trespass against you? Do not be like the unbelievers and false Christians who go around blogs saying it is impossible to forgive a cheating spouse, DO NOT FALL FOR THE TRICKS OF SATAN. Stay away from immorality and immoral friends,do not be a channel to break your family, remember, sin begets more sin. Stay away from people who say things like "Man is polygamous by nature","A woman needs a side guy she can warm up to","somebody cannot be eating only one kind of food every day". Those might be true for heathens,non-believer,false Christians who belong to world but can never be true for True followers of Christ.
Heb 13:4 says, Marriage is to be honored by all,husbands and wives must be faithful to each other. God will judge those who are immoral and those who commit adultery.
Ensure you pray,study the Bible, eat, bath together. Always communicate with one another calmly any thing that bothers you e.g sexual issues. Husbands ought to love their wives just as they love their own bodies, a man who loves his wife loves himself(Eph 5:28),hence under no condition should you beat your wife. Wives learn to submit to your husbands as to the Lord (Eph 5:21).
After the Virgin Mary met the angel she ran straight to her cousin Elizabeth who was virtuous woman, Who do you run to when your marriage is shaky?, Blogs, friends, parents?. Every young family should have an older couple(20yrs above in marriage) who believe in the divine law of God and follow his commands,it is best if it is not your parents so they don't take sides, any issue that cannot be resolved between you two, you can take to them as they have seen it all. Ensure to place every war in the hands of God, we have a God who can raise the dead,make the blind see and the deaf hear,what more save your marriage if you believe.
Do not listen to those "Learned people" who preach divorce as freedom for just as Romans 1:22 says, they say they are wise but they are fools. They will never tell you how the kids suffer during divorce and how it can lead to adultery.
You don't meet a poor man for advice on how to get rich so in the same way know who you meet for marital counselling. Remember the vows you both made on the altar before God, for better and for worse,for richer and for poorer,in sickness and in health(both spiritual and physical) TILL DEATH DO US PART. I will end this sermon with a message to us from the book of Malachi 2:13-16, May the Peace and Grace of Our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all.
MALACHI 2:13-16
13 Here is another thing you do. You cover the Lord’s altar with tears, weeping and groaning because he pays no attention to your offerings and doesn’t accept them with pleasure.14 You cry out, “Why doesn’t the Lord accept my worship?” I’ll tell you why! Because the Lord witnessed the vows you and your wife made when you were young. But you have been unfaithful to her, though she remained your faithful partner, the wife of your marriage vows.

15 Didn’t the Lord make you one with your wife? In body and spirit you are his.And what does he want? Godly children from your union. So guard your heart; remain loyal to the wife of your youth. 16 “FOR I HATE DIVORCE !"SAYS THE LORD, THE GOD OF ISREAL. “To divorce your wife is to overwhelm her with cruelty,” says the Lord of Heaven’s Armies. “So guard your heart; do not be unfaithful to your wife.”

You sound like a Catholic, This is what the church teaches.. Indissolubility of sacramental marriage!

Firstly you did a great Job, I personally have been blessed by this. Trust me majority won't go thru this epistle, we loosing our culture of reading lengthy articles, I urge everyone Bible believing ones to becos this is the prevailing problem we find in our society. Divorce is a No-No situation to GOD, if you decide to then remain single till death it's a vow nobody forced you to partake. In Roman's 2:16 - In the day when God shall judge the secrets of men by Jesus Christ according to my gospel.. Be guided let the word of God the gospel be your standard of living and not your emotions or something a pastor told you from his intelligence that's not in simulacrum with the Bible.
Do have a Blessed Sunday everyone
thanks for your kind words, we give God the Glory always

Honestly, it's a bit complicated. However, according to the Catholic church teaching on marriage, they can not divorce. The option they have is temporary separation where the two of them are asked to live separately for a while for the issue to be resolved. During this time, none of them is permitted to have sexual relation with another person. If he or she does, it is an act of adultery. The other available is if the marriage can be anulled. The condition for anullment is not easy to come by. There must be a tangible proof that either of the husband or wife has been decieved or not duly informed about an important issue prior to the marriage.

I think sometimes they don't have a choice. I am from a broken home but I had always blame my mum until I realise she probably never had a choice. But I still stick nd grew up with my dad.So they had to share responsibility in my upbringing. But they are both alive and happy, no grudges held. That's all that matters to me as their child.

marriage is legal sex, if both have not had sex then in reality they don't 'know' each other, are not married and are undefiled.

read ancient jewish books about their customs or early christian fathers. or do a research about marriage and sex.

if they have not sealed their marriage on the bed, then there was no union to dissolve in the first place.

Re: Bible Message On Divorce by jamescross: 11:23am On Mar 04, 2018
have you ever wonder why God focuses more on divorce and seems silent on polygamy.

did the law become stricter after Jesus? or are we making a spiritual teaching a physical law?

what is marriage? and what is adultery? is adultery marrying a second wife or marrying another wife (by casting the first one aside)?

why didn't God say the king must be a man of one wife but instead said a king must not have many wives?

why was reuben cursed for sleeping with bilah, was she jacob's wife? then hagar was cast out by abraham, was that divorce? david's first wife was a married woman, was he rebuked (maybe that's why he took another man's why)?

i can go on and on, many times we miss the point of God's words and fall into error.

I'm a practicing Christian but I've never believed in that for better, for worse bull crap. Again, how can two ppl become one because they're now married? If it is so, why can't they bury them together if one eventually dies? Two ppl can never be one, never!

To be on the safe side, just call yourself a church-goer, YOU ARE NOT A CHRISTIAN. A Christian is one only because they believe everything Jesus says, a Christian is someone who is Christ-like. A Christian CANNOT OPEN THEIR MOUTH TO SAY THEY DISAGREE WITH THE WORDS OF JESUS. They may not understand some of the things Jesus has said, but they cannot disagree with it. That is why the bible clearly said that WITHOUT FAITH, IT IS IMPOSSIBLE TO PLEASE GOD!

Love&marriage are highly spiritual&you must conquer love � spiritually before physical because so many people in relationship or marriage are not spiritually compatible,some people are snakes �& chimpanzees&birds � spiritually in human form&are having relationship with dogs �&monkeys �& cats � in human form how would such relationships or marriages work?so many people in relationships& marriages are also married or hold relationships in spiritual world&the spiritual never allows the physical relationship to make head way,even when it escapes or manages to flow or even have children in them its always problematic& that's why you see so many marriages crash within days or two months or thereabout because the spiritual was not dealt with powerfully as it should before the physical& those teaching about marriages& relationships&even contracting marriages as prophets&pastors are always canal&blind spiritually&have no unbelievable power to deal the spiritual&are even blind folded hence many people who talk about love&marriage& relationships don't understand the spiritual they just teach just like bible school theology where as the spiritual remain a mirage to them&even if an opportunity arises they will never learn the spiritual they are comfortable with what some one somewhere has cooked up in spiritual ignorance to teach them&even when you say divorce they are the first to quote what god has joined together let no man put asunder what of the ones evil prophets and pastors joined together if we should say there are good prophets and pastor's?where did you even see god to join them together?So many people don't understand the parables of the bible&the circumstances surrounding so many quotes of the bible or quotes of Jesus Christ,but they just quote to suit their stand point or positions why? Behold,so many people don't understand their village parables but they claim to understand the parables of Jesus Christ the owner of parables how can that be whereas those who met Jesus Christ physically when he came before didn't understand him?what a world and that's why matter how you try to declare the truth& Revelation of Jesus Christ they will never understand but prefer to remain in ignorance and that's why now that we have come back it is accept our truth or perish,no apologies& truth remains the best friend if time for us to know who is who evil or good&that time is already here.watch out.be wise& think if you hear what you have never heard before &help yourself before its too late.power talks& not genesis to revelation stories as is the norm and we have the power to deal with this evil and give total liberation and most of all empower you without suffering people in night vigils and tasting.

Answer the simple question
Why is it that they don't bury two of them if one of them die? That you're a Christian or Christlike doesn't mean you should not have common sense to reason things on your own. Two ppl can never be one, take it or leave it!
