1 | Stay marriaed at all costs? | 1 Cor 7:15 | jg8ball | 38861 | ||
I think God would not object to you leaving your husband in this circumstance. If you have tried all that you can and the abuse still continues, then what good can come from staying together. If you were both non-believers when married and you became a believer, you are now a new person (in Christ) and if you are unable to resolve the brutality, then you have no option to leave to situation less you fall victom. If you were a believer and he was not when married, (even though Paul warned against this), I can't believe that our God of Love would want you to remain in this situation if all attempts (including seeking help from others) has failed. If you both thought you were believers when married, then I think you were deceived. How could a true believer in Christ act the way you describe? I hope your example was hypothetical but if not, I pray that God gives you the courage to do what He would have you do. |

Point of clarity, please indulge me concerning.."God of Love". Do you agree that Love (God's love) is the most perfect type of love ever demonstrated or defined? If so, what is love without passion for truth and justice and fairness and compassion -- or in a word, righteousness? Aren't those things absolutely necessary for love to be practiced? If so, wouldn't we be best advised to remember whenever we say "God of Love" we should remember this trait of God's is dependent upon each of the other characteristics of God all at once? So unless we are cognizant of these other attributes as they support "Love" we merely trivialize Him and His attributes. | ||||||
