WHY God Allows Many Marriages to FAIL

Summary of Divorce and Remarriage Points Not Seen By Legalists

1. Not all marriages are put together by God (Joshua 23:12-13, Ezra Ch. 9:13-14, & 10:2-3, 10-13)...not to mention “David and Bathsheba or Samson and Delilah”
2. There are many unequally yoked marriages that God Hates even MORE than divorce (Exodus 34:14,16, Deut 7:3-4, Deut 13:6-10, 1 Kings 11:1-4)
3. Jesus Christ is the same, yesterday, today, and forever (Heb 13:8)
4. This means that God STILL commands us to separate from the disobedient and wicked...Ps 1:1, 26:5, Psa 101:4, 7-8, 119:113, 115, 118, Pro 13:20, 19:19, 22:10, 22:24-25, 23:9, Mat 7:6, 10:34-38, 18:17, Mark 3:25, 8:22, 10:14, 12:30, Rom 1:32, Rom 16:17, 1 Cor 5:11-12, 1 Cor 15:33, 2 Cor 6:14-17, Eph 5:3-7, 5:11-14, 2 Tim 3:1-5, Tit 3:10-11, Heb 1:8-9, 1 Tim 5:22, 2 John 1:11, Rev 18:4)
5. NONE of the above commands are abolished by the temporary institution called “marriage”
6. Jesus’ teaching on divorce was specifically to a Jewish audience (Just as each of His messages to the 7 churches in Revelation 2-3 were specific to each church in accordance to THEIR unique issues and sins, so too was His teaching in the Gospels on divorce specific to Jews who were in a divorce crisis, divorcing for any foolish reason, because their hearts were hard. (Matthew 19:8)
7. Even still, Jesus did not fail to give this concession to those Jews who were quick to divorce, saying, “Except for Adultery” regarding remarriage in Matthew 19:9
8. Jesus intentionally chose a woman who was divorced and remarried FIVE times to evangelize an entire town. Never once did he say to her, “God Hates divorce or you can never marry again, or you are going to hell because you remarried FIVE TIMES!” (John 4:1-25)
9. The same word used in 1 Corinthians 7:39 to describe the widow who is no longer “bound”, and thus free to remarry is the exact same word used in the phrase “no longer bound” in 1 Corinthians 7:15, to describe the new condition of the believing spouse who has been left by a believing spouse.
10. The greater principle in the NEW Covenant than “physical death” which can separate a marriage, is “spiritual death”. Many people are indeed in marriages, living with spiritually dead people who have once and for all rejected Christ and that death is slowly spreading to the “living spouse”, which is EXACTLY why God placed all the commands listed above to SEPARATE from the disobedient...He is trying to preserve a Holy uncontaminated remnant. This cannot be done when a person is living with a “dead body” yoking their light to the darkness. Passages showing Spiritual death in Scripture: (Mat 8:22, 23:27, John 5:24, 6:63, 12:40, Rom 7:10, 8:2, 8:6, Eph 2:1, 2:5, Col 2:13, Jam 1:15, 2:26, 1 Timothy 5:6, Rev 3:1)
11. Anyone who has doubts about divorce or remarriage should NOT move forward in either, until you have heard clearly from the Lord and can move forward by faith. Anything not done in faith (with doubt) is sin. Romans 14:23
12. Only God, by His Holy Spirit can give Revelation on the deep things and matters of His heart on subjects like this. God reveals them to Babes but hides them from the clever, the proud, the legalistic and the “wise and learned”. Matthew 11:25-26

Luke 7:33-35 NIV
[33] For John the Baptist came neither eating bread nor drinking wine, and you say, 'He has a demon.' [34] The Son of Man came eating and drinking, and you say, 'Here is a glutton and a drunkard, a friend of tax collectors and "sinners." ' [[Michael Chriswell came and remarried after his first wife had an affair and then years later divorced him for serving God rather than money, and you say, 'Here is a lawbreaker and adulterer.']]
[35] But wisdom is proved right by all her children."

Why does God allow so many marriages to end in divorce? Why didn't God answer my prayers to restore my marriage? He has some VERY GOOD reasons, but since today's Christians have been taught to idolize marriage and taught that marriage is the answer to all of societies problems, we are missing the GOOD reasons why God refuses to answer so many of our prayers for the restoration of our marriages.
