For taking your time to study remain blessed. SEPARATION IN MARRIAGE SUNDAY MARCH 19 TEXT: I CORINTHIANS 7: 10-11; ROMANS 7: 2-3 Key Verse: "What therefore God hath joined together, let not man put asunder" Matthew. 19: 6b The Almighty God who instituted marriage clearly says that He hates putting away. Marriage is binding for life. As it binds the woman, so it binds the man. As long as your wife/ husband is alive you cannot get married to another. He/ she can be alive but sick, or a witch/ wizard, or may even be mad. Even if he/ she becomes impotent, mad, such that he/she does not desire you any longer, for anything, even for carnal relationship, whatever is the case, in as much as the man/woman is still alive on earth, one thing that is certain is that you cannot get married again to any woman/man beside your first wife or husband. You may say, how can I cope, my body will be burning? Well, God who gave this command will also give grace equal to the challenge. All we need to know is that marriage is God's business we dare not interfere with it. He brought it about, He also determines what happens to it, and no one has right to question Him, or bend marriage to any direction of his/ her choice to suit him/ her. Separation is allowed where it becomes very unavoidable and necessary, yet no remarriage until reconciliation is achieved. There is no divorce and remarriage so far your life partner is alive. Temporary separation is only in matters in which others can bear witness that it is the only option for the interest of peace, security of lives and properties. You cannot just take decision on your own to say, I will leave this marriage, or I do not want to continue in this marriage again. The danger and sin in this decision is that any time your husband/ wife commits adultery with any other woman/ man, you share the sin fifty percent (50%). Do not say, I keep my body, remember you are one with your husband/ wife. The other part of your body is not being kept. You are one, and never to be separated. If you cause your husband/ wife to commit sin by your carnal decision, of course the gate of heaven will be shut against you. Thought for the day: Marriage is for life, and so there is no divorce and remarriage. Song for the day: I'm married to Jesus, Satan leave me alone (2X) My master is coming to take me... Bible reading for the day: Deuteronomy 33-34; Luke 1:24-56 #horemow.
