When Jesus said that a person who is married and gets a divorce and remarries another is guilty of committing adultery? He meant it. He meant that unless your spouse cheats on you.. Then you have no grounds for divorce and are guilty of committing adultery. Its the same as if you cheated on your wife! Why? Because in Gods eyes a marriage is a lifelong commitment. And there is no reason to God aside from adultery for a lifelong commitment to end. Plus once you start having sex with your new spouse God sees it as adultery because in Gods eyes you never got divorced! Yet so many Christians get divorced and do it anyway as if they don't care that they're hurting God and don't view marriage in the same way.
They're tricked by websites that say that divorce is okay and that Jesus didn't mean what he said. Divorce is NOT okay and Jesus DID mean what he said. Now I'm not saying that these Christians are still not forgiven or that they're not saved. I'm just saying that they WILL have to answer for it on Judgement day. Just like I personally will have to answer for my cussing on Judgement day. There ARE consequences to our actions and its like Christians don't even care that thier sins are hurting God or that Judgement day is only for unbelievers. No Christians will have to give an account to God as well and will be judged too. So before you get divorced remember that you're not only hurting God but that there are consequences to your actions.
I realize that there are abusive and sexless marriages and that people have the right to have sex and not be abused. But these things can be worked out in therapy and to me and to God these reasons are NOT reasons to get divorced. People are just way too quick on that divorce button that its not even funny!
