Matthew 5:31-32 (NIV)
31-32 “It has been said, ‘Anyone who divorces his wife must give her a certificate of divorce.’ But I tell you that anyone who divorces his wife, except for sexual immorality, makes her the victim of adultery, and anyone who marries a divorced woman commits adultery.”

Divorce was to offer for the victim, not to the guilty.

Matthew 19:3-9 (NIV)
3-9 Some Pharisees came to him to test him. They asked, “Is it lawful for a man to divorce his wife for any and every reason?” “Haven’t you read,” he replied, “that at the beginning the Creator ‘made them male and female,’ and said, ‘For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and the two will become one flesh’? So they are no longer two, but one flesh. Therefore what God has joined together, let no one separate.” “Why then,” they asked, “did Moses command that a man give his wife a certificate of divorce and send her away?” Jesus replied, “Moses permitted you to divorce your wives because your hearts were hard. But it was not this way from the beginning. I tell you that anyone who divorces his wife, except for sexual immorality, and marries another woman commits adultery.”

God’s design for marriage:
One with one in one for one .

Maybe you have heard: Your should meet your needs.

Maybe you have heard: It’s best to try you buy.

Maybe you have heard: Jesus was less concerned about we love, as long as we in love.

Matthew 19:4-5 (NIV)
4-5 “Haven’t you read,” he replied, “that at the beginning the Creator ‘made them male and female,’ and said, ‘For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and the two will become one flesh’?”

Jesus means being willing to surrender everything to him.

Maybe you have heard: If you’re still , there must be something wrong with you.

Maybe you have heard: God hates divorce…and divorcees.  And gays.  And lesbians.  And trans.

John 1:14 (NIV)
14 “…full of grace and truth.“

1 John 1:8-9 (NLT)
8-9 If we claim we have no sin, we are only fooling ourselves and not living in the truth. But if we confess our sins to him, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all wickedness.

Romans 3:23-24 (NLT)
23-24 For everyone has sinned; we all fall short of God’s glorious standard. Yet God, in his grace, freely makes us right in his sight. He did this through Christ Jesus when he freed us from the penalty for our sins.
