    Advice for the biological parent?

    Don't expect the step parent to parent your child. It takes approx 7 years for a child to love a step parent. Be content if the child likes them... maybe even if they don't hate them. Accept that older children may try to cause trouble in the marriage and maybe even a break up. Children...

    God Hates Divorce

    You are totally right... what God hates in Malachi is the treachery. And part of the treachery that was happening at that time was the putting away of their wives. Putting away is only one part of the divorce equation. This differed from the common law, the Code of Hammurabi, where a man...

    God Hates Divorce

    Because that is the definition of putting away. Deuteronomy 24:1 KJV When a man hath taken a wife, and married her, and it come to pass that she find no favour in his eyes, because he hath found some uncleanness in her: then let him write her a bill of divorcement, and give it in her hand...

    God Hates Divorce

    Mal 8 But ye are departed out of the way; ye have caused many to stumble at the law; ye have corrupted the covenant of Levi, saith the LORD of hosts. 9 Therefore have I also made you contemptible and base before all the people, according as ye have not kept my ways, but have been partial in the...

    Disaster marriage

    Under Roman law all that was necessary for people to become divorced was for them to live separately (or separate). So in 1 Cor.7 when Paul says let the unbeliever depart you are not bound to them... he is saying... the people under the Roman law are not operating by the law of God... just let...

    God Hates Divorce

    Joseph was betrothed not married to Mary. He had a mind to put her away quietly as apposed to bringing her before the judges and having her stoned. Which would have been her punishment for extra marital relations.

    God Hates Divorce

    Actually that's exactly what happened and still occasionally happens today in the Jewish community (where it's called the Agunah problem). In Malachi 2:16 God is angry with the men of Israel who were "putting away" their wives without giving them a certificate of divorce. There were 3 steps...

    A verse to send to my husband

    One of my favorites was 1 Tim 5:8 But if any provide not for his own, and specially for those of his own house, he hath denied the faith, and is worse than an infidel. HOWEVER You'd probably get much more mileage out of one of the verses on forgiveness. Luke 17:4 NLT Even if he wrongs...

    would God really want me to spend the rest of my life alone & childless?

    Under Roman law all a person needed to do to divorce was to 'depart'. Living separately was in effect a divorce. As a Christian under Roman law if your spouse left... you didn't need to obtain a certificate of divorce... the separation was sufficient. They were no longer bound to the...

    would God really want me to spend the rest of my life alone & childless?

    Bible doesn't say God hates divorce Mal 2:16 says God hates "putting away" which is separation without divorce. What the men were doing at the time were putting out their wives, leaving them without any form of support, and taking newer models. This was a serious form of abuse against the...

    reason for divorce?

    Puregrl, If you've been in counselling you should be aware of the cycle of violence. In the Honeymoon phase everything is wonderful but as tension builds the abuser gets closer and closer to an eruption of violence. Sounds like you've already begun to experience some small eruptions when "it...

    Do you think it's bad to take ibuprofen for extended periods of time?

    Every medication has some potential side effects. Then there's the problem of interactions between them. If you've been receiving relief from NSAID's, I suggest trying supplements, grape seed has anti-inflammatory properties as does omega-3 supplements. Try looking into what, if anything...

    Abortion is a Win-Win Scenario.

    This is a false premise. Life is in the blood. Adam's sin has been passed down generation to generation through the father's seed. So no one is innocent, no not one. Levi paid tithe when he was still in Abraham's loins Hebrews 7:9 Even Levi, who receives tithes, paid tithes through...
