Perhaps nothing is more tragic and heartbreaking than the divorce of a so-called Christian marriage. Literally, there is no excuse. Don’t both partners have the Holy Spirit that produces fruit like love and peace and gentleness and kindness and self-control? Don’t both partners want to submit to Jesus Christ as Lord of their lives? Don’t both partners have the Bible, their marriage manual, that specifically outlines what God expects and how they can have a fulfilling, joyful and God-honoring marriage? Don’t both partners have the church which can offer accountability and encouragement and counseling? Don’t both partners remember the promise, the covenant they made before God in good times and bad times to love each other to the end? Don’t both partners what to do all things for the glory of God?
