Divorce is not a New Covenant provision. All divorce = unforgiveness, a damnable sin, on the part of the seeker. And all remarriage after divorce is adultery, no matter the reason for the divorce.

And yet it is allowed under specific circumstances in the New Testament.
And I say unto you, Whosoever shall put away his wife, except it be for fornication, and shall marry another, committeth adultery: and whoso marrieth her which is put away doth commit adultery. (Mt 19:9)
But if the unbelieving depart, let him depart. A brother or a sister is not under bondage in such cases: but God hath called us to peace. (1 Cor 7:15)
Not for Christians. We must forgive or remain unforgiven. Paul says if an unbeliever divorces a believer, the believer is not enslaved (under bondage), but they must either reconcile or remain single.
Notice what those two things have in common. It's not the Christian who leaves the marriage, it's the spouse. Under no circumstances does a follower of Christ break a marriage relationship. I know, some people will accuse me of misandry, but it's always a sin for a man to leave a marriage regardless of how miserable and abused he may be. We're called to righteousness, not comfort. Besides, men, if you're miserable, maybe you should be doing something different. Stop blaming your wife like it's one-sided. You chose her in the first place, decisions have consequences, and I don't believe she changed from the person you married. I'm so tried of whiny men who claim to be Christian but always trying to argue for excuses not to follow God's teaching.

A person is not truly married until you have children, then the bond can not be broken as to your duty's as such.
The RCC did always allow for divorce were one was a threat to the children or them.
Problem nowadays is many things, but the government encourage and champion divorce and this is because Satanist love nothing better than to brake up family's, not to mention create bastardised marriage like such Satanic rubbish as gays classed in the same definition is totally Satanic.
Fact is that Satan is the one who leads the whole world astray.
A partnership is what Satanist or fools can only aspire too, so a partnership should never be called a marriage. but sadly that's what the Satanist do, they work to undermine everything bastardising the definitions, so that the lowest denominator becomes the "Standard" for all who are under the yoke of Socialist gods and it's Satanic Political Correctness runs straight over anyone who is above the lowest denominator, as all must come under the power of the lowest denominator. your children are not yours they are a number under Satan's Government and you have no rights as to your children, we see this type of power is becoming more dominate as the Socialist are always working on Laws that undermine the strength of the Family unit, in ways that are very cunning.
The Governments work to let bad drugs into nations, so as to destroy the people, just as they do with many things like the schooling system is controlled by degenerates and so is what ever you want to look into, the very top brass of the military, Deans of uni etc are all degenerate creeps peddling degenerate rubbish over all. such pricks can not be questioned, we have no rights to question such people or you will be made out to be the monster and just fobbed off or tried to be made a fool of for even asking questions. sadly the average person never questions what is going on because they don't care or they can not handle the truth or it gets too hot in the kitchen for them to deal with such and freak out when they truly see the cunning and deceptions hit you ion the face.

What?! Lol.
My wife and I do not have children yet so I guess we are not married...Does that mean couples who do not have children can pursue someone from the opposite sex? If you're not "truly" married then it is not "truly" unfaithfulness...geez the things I read here sometimes lol.
And what do you see as God's Truth that Dave expands beyond. I've tried to reconcile remarriage and it just isn't there. And Dave is right that a Christian is never to initiate divorce. Period. What happened in Moses' time is from a standpoint of hardening of the heart of stone. Not a heart of flesh.
The Retrouvaille Program is for Married Couples Facing Difficult Challenges in their Relationship
- A Marriage program that helps couples restore their marriage and rebuild a loving relationship.
- A Christian marriage program, Catholic in origin, where couples of all faiths or no faith background are encouraged to attend.
- Primarily a practical program to improve communication, build stronger marriages, and help couples reconnect.
- Presenters are not trained marriage counselors, but rather couples sharing their personal stories of marital struggles and the tools they used to rediscover their love.
You can read what he himself said in post #81.
Okay. So you lean toward a family unit, of mother and children without a constant father presence as favorable to God?
Okay. Not sure how you conclude that, when the Scripture itself, gives an acceptable exception... Matt 19:9
Okay.
So where in scripture is: in "Dave's words"...
?
God Bless,

First, that is totally irrelevant to the quote. If wedding vows fall out of the mouth of a lying/abusive con artist, who proves to be incapable of living marriage vows, THAT IS NOT A MARRIAGE.
