Christian and Divorce
Reply Quote

After reading all of the information concerning being a christian and divorce, I have yet found the answer to my situation.  After being married for 24 years, my husband passed away.  I recently remarried with the hopes of spending my life with someone to love and who loves me, BUT first and foremost, loves Christ.  Five months into the marriage, my husband left abrutly without a word because I said No.  Because in my heart I feel he married me for monitary gain and walked out on the marriage without even giving it a try, I do not want to continue the marriage.  Am I wrong for not wanting to continue the marriage.  I do understand that marriage is very sacred and honorable in the site of God.  Although my "flesh" wants to go through with the divorce, I have not done so until I hear from God.  Can someone address my issue??

If Jesus is the Lord of your life, ask the holy spirit of God to reveal to you what Jesus could do in that situation and act upon knowledge. Proverbs 14:1 declares that: The wise woman builds her house, but the foolish pulls it down with her hands. If you undertand how marriage is in the sight of God, what choice will you make? godly choices or fleshly? make the choice that lead to life and not to death. God honors those who honors him. what is the foundation of your marriage? If you are believer, Jesus suppose to be the foundation of anything you do, so when the wind comes, it will not affect your foundtion and the house will remain intact. What is your role in the marriage? Visualize your responsability and everywhere you fail to fulfill it, go in prayers with supplication before the throne of grace, ask for forgiveness and repente. God the father is ready to forgive and he will show you the next step to make. It is easy to see what somebody else is doing wrong but when it come to self, there is always an excuse. The man on God heart, endose responsability, admit mistakes and is ready to follow the leadership and guideance of the Living God. Before your engagement to that marriage, did you take the time to seek for Godly advise? did you inquiry the Lord, if it was the man to be your husband or you made decision based on fellings? If you did seek for God's will and HE told you to married him, why you tried to discontinue with HIM? Woman of God, as believer, we have to walk by faith not by sight, no by fellings and Faith do not make things easy but possible. Commitment is a must in the walk of faith until the day of Jesus arrive.

How long was you single before you remarried again?And if he is a man of god as you have stated why would he just walk away? The question is was it really God that prepared you for him and him for you or was it you and him that put yourselves together.? I believe that if yal both see that it was a mistake from the beginning it's ok to look and say I've made a mistake and Father forgive me for taking things into my own hands. But if you know for sure that God hands was in this fight for what is rightfully yours.

Re: Christian and Divorce
I don't agree with Divorce, although I've married twice, I believe that one should get the leading in there heart before attempting to do such a thing. Some divorces are necessary but over petty stuff you shouldn't consider that as an option. The father loves us all and will make a way out of no way. Sometimes we marry the wrong people and sometimes it is sexually related, and that will help you get married instead of really loving the person.

Love,

I have been reaading the posts from various members of this site. It lead me to more confusion. My husband is currently living as man and wife with another woman. I think it is time for divorce. I read 1 corinthians chapter 7. My question is, If your marriage does not work out will god send you another? My husband cheated on me. Some advise says it was my fault and some says it is not. I need to know what God says. I do not want to make the same mistakes over again. I want to marry the person God has fpr me. I thought I did. So what do I do now?
