Intermarriage with pagans
5 Rhetorical Questions Addressed by Apostle Paul
What partnership has righteousness with lawlessness?
What fellowship has light with darkness?
What harmony has Christ with Satan?
What portion does a believer share with an unbeliever?
What agreement has the Temple of God with idols?
By Breaking Faith in Marriage------- Divorce
God hates divorce because it destroys what His intention for marriage should be.
On all things in Scripture that God hates, it comes down to one thing…. SIN
If you want a godly marriage then follow godly principles and teaching on marriage.
Godly marriage was meant for 3 things:
Faithful Companionship and Love
Spiritual Blessing
And Godly Offspring
Love between a husband and wife was unique form all forms of love. The Bible calls it oneness; oneness of Body, soul and Mind.
1 Peter 3:7 If your marriage is in trouble your prayers will be futile.
Jesus restated every one of the Ten Commandments to deal with the Heart issues of man. “You have heard it said, but I say unto you.”
There were two schools of thought regarding divorce
Adultery
Loss of Affection
Matthew 19:9 __________________________________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________________________________________
Divorce goes far beyond the individuals involved. It affects family and friends and it affects the community of believers.
When divorce took place that promise of protection and love was broken and the garment was removed, which resulted in hatred, fighting and violence between husband and wife.
