Bible Question: I was married 23 years ago. Two years ago after my husband had a terrible addiction problem, and serveral attempts of reconstructing our marriage, we divorced. After a serious accident that envolved our daughter we are back together again. I remained faithful during our separation, however I'm not sure about him. Should we get married again? I'm very confused about this and need some biblical advice. I've searched the scriptures, however, I find varried things about divorce and marriage. Also, He will go to church with me, but reruses to do devotions with me. I really want us to be close in the Lord, and I know that through him is the only way for it to work. He says that I am trying to put demands on him by asking him to do this? He has control over his addiction, and seems to be trying. He was saved several years ago, but says he has problems with guilt. Please help? |
Bible Answer: At some point, the question becomes, what is Jesus talking about? For example, Blessed, they who hunger and thirst for righteousness. Why? For they shall be satiated, or filled. Filled with what? Well, in John 7.37-38.,.."If any one thirsts,let that person come in prayer unto me, and drink. He that believes on me, as the scripture has said, out of his belly shall flow rivers of living water." In other words, to hunger and thirst for the indwelling of bread from heaven or the water of everlasting life is a sacred thing in itself. To help anyone, spouse or non spouse, is to teach them that. Because before the indwelling, for many there is the hunger and the thirst for right standing with the name. Do not let anyone get your own hunger and thirst playing second fiddle to a rebel spirit who denies the authority of the most high name. |
