1 | Can a woman divorce man: Ongoing porn? | Matthew | bandaid | 212565 | ||
Matt 5:27-28 Mark 10:10-12 In these verses it specifically addresses the mans right to divorce a woman under the grounds of adultery, but it does not specifically say a woman can divorce her husband. Is a woman biblically allowed the right to divorce a man under these grounds (porn as adultery) or does she have to seperate and wait for her husband to divorce her? |

Dear Bandaid, I'm very sorry for your situation. I afraid my friend your are in quite a quandary, you see I don't think the Bible is all that clear on your specific situation. I so do feel for you. May I just pray for you and take this opportunity to ask others to pray as well? My advice to you is continue to pray, I know that is no solace for the pain you suffer now, but don't give up! If you are in a situation that is beyond your suffering then remove yourself and ask God for guidance. I know this is not the answer you seek but it's all I can offer you. I'm sorry. God bless John |

Dear Bandaid, First I would like to say that I also am sorry for your situation and I do pray for you. Second I would like to say that I do believe that God would want you to try all that you can to make it work. If you took an oath in his sight he expects you to honor that oath. I know that sometimes this is hard to do but you have to try before you just abandon ship. If you have exhausted every imaginable resource then yes, you do have the right to pull yourself out of that situation. God understands that some situations are beyond human repair and may begin hinder you in the future or drive a wedge between you and him(God). This is when he steps in to bring correction or break the connection. It is not good to be unequally yoked. My advice to you is this: Pray to God about it and be open to his instructions however they may come. You will find that we tend to meet God in the strangest places sometimes. Even if you have tried it before and received no answer try it again and take into consideration that you just may have missed God the last time. Stay open and be blessed. Gileum |

Gileum, Try what before I abandon ship? Please. The end of this lonnngg line is that someone needs help despite anything I can do or have tried. I cannot make him change. Does his freewill take precedence over fasting and prayer? Those are the questions that at some point everyone will get to at the end of everything else attempted. Is the desire to overcome mine alone? You can't save a marriage when only one party is trying ...unless the sin is only one that can be delivered through fasting and prayer. I am not asking for advice, I am asking legitimate questions and my understanding is that the truth of Gods Word is what sets us free. You have to be open to go places to hear or read the Word to accomplish this. When someone IS NOT OPEN, there is something hindering that. Do you really think I have not prayed about this for several years?? Please, if you want to help, pray for my husband to be open, and fast if you think Gods word pertains to this situation. That is what my questions are about. | ||||||

Hello again Bandaid, I think Doc answered this question far better than I possibly can. And you pretty much answered it yourself when you stated that the person being prayed for has to somewhere along the line open him/herself up for change. Look at the example of Lot's family - God Himself sent His own ANGELS into Lot's home to save them. It was quite evident that they were supernatural beings and still some of Lot's family (the men who were/or were to be married to his daughters) refused to believe, change and be physically saved from the destruction to come. Prayer and fasting is a good thing to do, but God will not override one's freewill to die in one's own sin - see Romans 1:18-32. Cheri |

Thank you Cheri. I have heard many stories and testimonies of supernatural happenings in this time. And stories over the years from missionaries, friends and pastors and books with awesome stories of Gods intervention. My questions pertain to the biblical truths of Gods intervention in the bible when he frees people, some who seem to not even be asking. Like the man in the tombs who was possessed and freed from the legions. I will read those verses. | ||||||
