This is a simple issue. The bible admonish believing spouse to stay in their marriage with an unbeliever if the later wants the marriage. A man beating his wife shows he's not interested in that marriage and he's not willing to live with her, thus the believing woman can leave. In christianity, it is not permissible under any circumstances to beat your wife not even with a toothbrush or piece of grass as we have in Islam. beating your wife is a clear sign u are not a christian and your wife has no reason to stay. 1 corinthians 7 12 To the rest I say this (I, not the Lord): If any brother has a wife who is not a believer and she is willing to live with him, he must not divorce her. 13 And if a woman has a husband who is not a believer and he is willing to live with her, she must not divorce him. 14 For the unbelieving husband has been sanctified through his wife, and the unbelieving wife has been sanctified through her believing husband. Otherwise your children would be unclean, but as it is, they are holy. 15 But if the unbeliever leaves, let it be so. The brother or the sister is not bound in such circumstances; God has called us to live in peace. |

WatchYourSix:Where's the blasphemy and how do you literally kill? I only oppose Christians. Can you show the way out biblically for a Christian who is being ill-treated by his/her spouse in terms of domestic violence? |

SIRTee15:From your quote, Paul himself gave the advice that divorce should not be based on spousal religion yet he in another verse says: Do not be unequally yoked with unbelievers. For what partnership can righteousness have with wickedness? Or what fellowship does light have with darkness? 2 Corinthains 6:14 So what changed? Paul permitted marriage yoke between a Christian and a non-Christian and forbids divorce in this case! But you said divorce is permitted in case of domestic violence.So how does domestic violence becomes more than not practising Chritianity? Also, domestic violence can be from either spouse and it's not only relegated to beating or physical abuse. |

AntiChristian:In the Gospels, Jesus Christ does not teach that divorce is a sin. Instead, He speaks instead of remarriage being a potential sin for those already divorced, and even those about to marry for the first time. ■ Matthew 5 vs 31 - 32 31 “It was also said, ‘Any man who divorces his wife must give her a written notice of divorce.’■ Matthew 19 vs 7 - 9 7 The Pharisees asked, “Then why did Moses give a command allowing a man to divorce his wife by writing a certificate of divorce?”■Mark 10 vs 10- 12 10 Later, when the followers and Jesus were in the house, they asked him again about the question of divorce.■ Luke 16 vs 18 18 “Any man who divorces his wife and marries another woman is guilty of adultery. And the man who marries a divorced woman is also guilty of adultery.” - Luke 16 vs 18■ Matthew 19 vs 12 11 He answered, “This statement is true for some, but not for everyone—only for those who have been given this gift.Divorce in and of itself is not a sin, so says Jesus Christ of Israel. ![]() |

AntiChristian:As regards the Constitutional Law in the ancient nation of Israel, divorce was not only allowed but encouraged in certain cases. 😒 Yes, it is a fact that in Malachi, it is written that YHWH hates divorce. However, that does not mean that divorce is not allowed in His Law, nor does it make divorce a sin in any case. The Law allowed men and women to pursue divorce in the case of incompatibility, with certain exceptions. 😒 |

Kobojunkie:How is this relevant to the question in the OP? |
| Re: Married Christian Women and Domestic Violence! No way out! by AntiChristian(op): 5:25am On May 14 |
Kobojunkie:I don't think it was called a sin anywhere in this thread. |

AntiChristian:Well,the gist of having a criminal code that as part of a constitutional framework is making clear that which is unlawful (sin/crime) from that which is. 🥱🥱 |

AntiChristian:If you would ever pay close attention to the context of the book of Malachi where that came from, you would find that YHWH said that in regards to his marriage to his Israel. (Yes,the entire book of Malachi is directed, not at individuals but the Priests whom He established as the government over his people.) Following that you will find that when He said He hates divorce, He literally meant divorcing of His nation, Israel. (In the book of Isaiah, YHWH made reference to his assumed divorce from her, Israel.) He hates divorce is a reiteration of His forever Covenant with Israel. He is there God and they are His people forever. This message is repeated time and time again through His prophets. 🥱🥱 1 This is what the Lord says: “People of Israel, you say that I divorced your mother, Jerusalem. But where is the legal paper that proves I divorced her? My children, did I owe money to someone? Did I sell you to pay a debt? No, you were sold because of the bad things you did. Your mother was sent away because of the bad things you did. |

Kobojunkie:What was Jesus's opinion on divorce and the conditions that necessitates it? |
| Re: Married Christian Women and Domestic Violence! No way out! by AntiChristian(op): 9:17am On May 15 |
Kobojunkie:Biblically, what is the way out for married Christians who suffers domestic violence? |
| Re: Married Christian Women and Domestic Violence! No way out! by Kobojunkie: 12:10pm On May 15 |
AntiChristian:I don't know about what religious people would rather do in their own lives but again, as I showed you, divorce was never sin in both the old and new Covenants.🥱🥱 As a matter of fact, in the new Covenant, marriage is not considered more of a cultural choice individuals make. It is not encouraged. (Your marriage is of tos world and not of the Kingdom of God.) For those those who are in this world but not of this world, foregoing the traditions of this world is of greatest benefit. 🥱 |
| Re: Married Christian Women and Domestic Violence! No way out! by Kobojunkie: 12:16pm On May 15 |
AntiChristian:What do you mean his opinion? Jesus Christ of Israel said He and His Father are one and that He did His Father's Will implying He followed that which His father had laid down for all of Israel which he happens to be a part of. 🥱 I posted all of Jesus Christ of Israel's commandments regarding divorce earlier where you pretended you understood well that he indeed did not consider divorce as sin/crime/unlawful against YHWH. 🥱🥱 |
| Re: Married Christian Women and Domestic Violence! No way out! by Kobojunkie: 4:34pm On May 15 |
AntiChristian:Are you struggling with comprehension or something? I am being serious now. 🥱🥱 Why the expectation that violence in marriage should deserve a special kind of solution? 🥱🥱 |
