The Book Of Daniel In The Old Testament
Predicted That There Would Be A Group Of People
With A Pre-Set Plan To Divorce Their Spouses :
(Daniel 2:40 NRSV)
"And there shall be a fourth kingdom, strong as iron;
just as iron crushes and smashes everything, it shall crush and shatter all these."
(Daniel 2:41 NRSV)
"As you saw the feet and toes partly of potter's clay and partly of iron,
it shall be a divided kingdom;
but some of the strength of iron shall be in it, as you saw the iron mixed with the clay."
(Daniel 2:43 NRSV)
"As you saw the iron mixed with clay, so will they mix with one another in marriage,
but they will not hold together, just as iron does not mix with clay."
But Creator God HATES Divorce.
One Reason Why Is Because It Destablizes The Support Base Of Children.
(Malachi 2:13 NKJV)
"And this is the second thing you do:
You cover the altar of the LORD with tears, With weeping and crying;
So He does not regard the offering anymore, Nor receive it with goodwill from your hands."
(Malachi 2:14 NKJV)
"Yet you say, "For what reason?"
Because the LORD has been witness Between you and the wife of your youth,
With whom you have dealt treacherously;
Yet she is your companion And your wife by covenant."
(Malachi 2:15 NKJV)
"But did He not make them one, Having a remnant of the Spirit?
And why one? He seeks godly offspring.
Therefore take heed to your spirit,
And let none deal treacherously with the wife of his youth."
(Malachi 2:16 NKJV)
""For the LORD God of Israel says That He hates divorce,
For it covers one's garment with violence," Says the LORD of hosts.
"Therefore take heed to your spirit, That you do not deal treacherously.""
(Malachi 2:17 NKJV)
"You have wearied the LORD with your words;
Yet you say, "In what way have we wearied Him?"
In that you say, "Everyone who does evil Is good in the sight of the LORD, And He delights in them,"
Or, "Where is the God of justice?""
(1 Corinthians 7:10 KJV)
"And unto the married I command, yet not I, but the Lord,
Let not the wife depart from her husband:"
(1 Corinthians 7:11 KJV)
"But and if she depart, let her remain unmarried, or be reconciled to her husband:
and let not the husband put away his wife."
(1 Corinthians 7:12 KJV)
"But to the rest speak I, not the Lord:
If any brother hath a wife that believeth not, and she be pleased to dwell with him,
let him not put her away."
(1 Corinthians 7:13 KJV)
"And the woman which hath an husband that believeth not, and if he be pleased to dwell with her,
let her not leave him."
(1 Corinthians 7:14 KJV)
"For the unbelieving husband is sanctified by the wife,
and the unbelieving wife is sanctified by the husband:
else were your children unclean [ taught to break their promises / marriage vows ] ;
but now are they holy."
(1 Corinthians 7:15 KJV)
"But if the unbelieving depart, let him depart.
A brother or a sister is not under bondage in such cases: but God hath called us to peace."
(1 Corinthians 7:16 KJV)
"For what knowest thou, O wife, whether thou shalt save thy husband?
or how knowest thou, O man, whether thou shalt save thy wife?"
(Matthew 19:3 KJV)
"The Pharisees also came unto him, tempting him,
and saying unto him, Is it lawful for a man to put away his wife for every cause?"
(Matthew 19:4 KJV)
"And he answered and said unto them,
Have ye not read, that
he which made them at the beginning made them male and female,"
(Matthew 19:5 KJV)
"And said, For this cause shall a man leave father and mother,
and shall cleave to his wife:
and they twain [ two ] shall be one flesh?"
(Matthew 19:6 KJV)
"Wherefore they are no more twain [ two ] , but one flesh.
What therefore God hath joined together, let not man put asunder."
(Matthew 19:7 KJV)
"They say unto him,
Why did Moses then command to give a writing of divorcement, and to put her away?"
(Matthew 19:8 KJV)
"He saith unto them,
Moses because of the hardness of your hearts suffered you to put away your wives:
but from the beginning it was not so."
(Matthew 19:9 KJV)
"And I say unto you,
Whosoever shall put away his wife, except it be for fornication,
and shall marry another, committeth adultery:
and whoso marrieth her which is put away doth commit adultery."
(Luke 16:18 KJV)
"Whosoever putteth away his wife, and marrieth another, committeth adultery:
and whosoever marrieth her that is put away from her husband committeth adultery."
