Bible Question: ok..i praise God for allowing me to find this website! I am a blood redeemed child of God.I recently re-married my ex husband because we bought a home together, and we were living together in this house to raise the children together. I did not love him then and i don't now. i don't want to hurt him, so I have never told him how I really feel. I have no desire to be with him and i know that divorce is wrong (and it would kill him), but I feel so trapped, miserable,and disarrayed. i know what the bible says on forgiveness and I have forgiven him but I choose not to be with him if I had a choice. How do I handle this situation? |
Bible Answer: First of all, is the reason you have this dislike toward your husband due to an unfaithfulness in your previous marriage to him? If so did you divorce for that reason? Obviously you must have loved him at one point to have children. Have you spoke to your preacher about counseling? I think that you should also read Matthew 19:9. I think that you are trying to do the right thing for yourself scriptualy, just by knowing that you tried to reconcile yourself back to your husband. Have you ever read the scriptures in the bible that discuss marriage and divorce or is this knowledge that you know divorce is wrong just a feeling? My advice scriptualy to you is if your husband is a good man and is trying to do right, then it would be in your best interest to learn to love him. Luke 16 18 "(1) Everyone who divorces his wife and marries another commits adultery, and he who marries one who is divorced from a husband commits adultery. 1 Corinthians 7 11 (but if she does leave, she must remain unmarried, or else be reconciled to her husband), and that the husband should not divorce his wife. And lastly, I would hope before you do anything that you would buy a copy of the book I told you about. It would be ggod for you and your husband. Raven |
