divorce

In Matt 5:31-32 ... seemed to say it's the right thing to do (in my case). But many other verses seemed to indicate one must not divorce his wife. Please share your thoughts with me as I am planning to divorce her in 2 months time. Am I doing the right thing? A little background, we are now...

I am in need of some prayer. I’m going through a separation and then a divorce. This causes me to have panic and anxiety attacks. Please pray for God to give me strength and help through this, and to take these attacks from me.

My wife no longer wants to be married to me. For years she has been emotionally abusive. After putting up with her behavior for years while she was humiliating, manipulating and controlling me, I finally started to stand up for myself. Recently she came to my office and publicly humiliated me by...

I have been brought here by all the sin I have indulged in over the years and it was tearing me apart. I cheated on my husband with a dear friend of mine. I wanted to stop but instead of dealing with the issues in my marriage I ran to another man. A man I didn't love and every time we were...

To start it out properly, she has been unfaithful so far as I can tell via an ongoing and intimate relationship with another man. I obviously cannot prove it, having not caught them in bed, but he is an open secret, she spends an incredible amount of time with him, and left yesterday and took...

I'm a Traditional Catholic, though I was raised Novus Ordo, and I've become dissatisfied, and I'd say even disenfranchised from the Catholic Church. Most of my family isn't Catholic, and many of my friends are not as well. I've always debated with people about the Faith. Until recently, I...

My husband is addicted to gambling. His gambling has gotten SO bad and no matter what I do he finds new and creative ways to gamble. He has literally gambled almost every month of our marriage but now instead of gambling small money he gambles entire paychecks. I have tried everything. He was...

A prayer for my grandmother, who raised me as her own, dueling with cancer that has spread, and for the emotional toll it is having on the rest of my family who have just lost another good woman to cancer. A prayer for my aunt, who is taking care of her alongside her twin daughters while...

I need to vent and I need advice. I'm scared. We've been married 2 months. We just told everyone and made it official yesterday.. And I already contemplate divorce... Is there something wrong with me? Do I feel the need to flee because of normal conflict? Or is this relationship seriously...

My sister and I grew up as very conservative, traditional Catholics. I still am today. Recently she confessed to me that's she's been "falling out of love" with her husband, and has been seriously considering filing for divorce. They have three little girls together. She made no mention of...

I am married to a pastor. We have a 5 year old and a 5 month old. We have several issues: 1. He's a pastor and I don't feel like he provides for his family the way that the Bible instructs. He only works at the church full time but it really isn't full time. He will stay up part of the night...

Hello brothers and sisters. I've never been in a Christian forum before but I'm here because I'm a broken man. I have sinned against G-d and seek his forgiveness and redemption. I'm not a new believer but in times past and very recently I have forsaken my G-d and it has caused me to lose all...

Matthew 5:32 states very clearly that if I remarry I am an adulteress. So then does that either mean adultery can be forgiven by staying single for the rest of my life? Or can I marry another divorcee (or someone who was promiscuous but repented of those ways) and be a helper to a man's walk...

Hi All, It was 5 years, 3 months and 5 days ago, the hardest 6 months of my life. I heard the "I want D" from my wife, and it was huge, big shock! Yes, we were arguing, and a lot lately, but this was still shocking - I couldn't gather back, took me a day to realize that she meant it ! After...

If you lead a gay friend to Christ who happens to be legally married to a same-sex partner...would it be a sin for them to divorce? What about remarriage in a heterosexual relationship?

Please pray for my marriage I am miserable and depressed it gets worse daily. We tried our pastor as and counseling and things have not improved. He is not abusive physically but he goes week without talking to me. We are not compatible in any way. I have tried leaving several times and he...

Mark 6:17 - For Herod himself had sent and laid hold of John, and bound him in prison for the sake of Herodias, his brother Philip's wife; for he had married her. I have a hypothetical question: If Herod had come to a place of repentance and turned to Christ, what would have been the scriptural...

Hi everyone, I'm new here, Southern Baptist, and have a few questions. I was saved and baptized about a year ago. I was married for 5 years the only time I've been married. We got married in 2007. We had 3 children, and it turned out he was living a secret life and was a pedophile. He's...

Blended families are difficult at best. We married later in life when my step-daughter was about to graduate from high school. Her father doted on her entire life and I was and still am an intrusion. She has married and lives a couple hours away now. Yet, when she has an issue she calls her...
