Against Divorce

As Jesus taught, a Pharisee came up and said, “Lord, is it lawful for a man to divorce his wife?”
And Jesus said, “You supposed to know. What says the law?”
The Pharisee replied, “The law
provides that man may be divorced, may put away his wife.”
And Jesus said, “The hardness of the hearts of men induced the giver of the law to make provisions such as these. But from the first it was not so. God made a woman for a man, and they were one. And afterwards he said, ‘A man shall leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave unto his wife. They are no more divided. They are one, one flesh. What God has joined together, let no man put asunder.


Jesus Gives More Explanations On Marriage And Adultery

Now, when they went up to the house, a man made free to ask again about this matter of divorce. And Jesus said again what He had said to the Pharisee. And then He gave the higher law of marriage life: Whoever puts away his wife, except on the grounds of adultery, and takes another wife commits adultery. The woman who shall leave a man, unless he be a libertine and an adulterer, and then becomes the wife of any other man, commits adultery.”


And Thomas asked, “What is adultery?”
And Jesus said, “The man who harbours lustful thoughts, who covets any woman not his wife, is an adulterer. And the wife who harbours lustful thoughts, and covets any man who is not wedded to her, who is not her husband, is an adulterer.


Men cannot make a law to bind two hearts. When two are bound in love they have no thought of lust. The woman cannot leave the man. The man has no desire to send his wife away. When men and women harbour lustful thoughts, and covet any other flesh, they are not one, not joined by God.”


And Philip said, “Lord, are there few that God has joined in holy marriage bonds?”
And Jesus said, “God knows the pure in heart. The lustful men and women are but creatures of the lustful self. They cannot be at one. Nor can they be at one with God. A person who is not trustworthy is also not reliable in his ways.”

Nathaniel (who Jesus Christ renamed Bartholomew) said, “Is it not well that all men should refrain from taking on themselves the marriage vow?”
And Jesus said, “Marriage or no marriage does not make people impure. The man who lusts is an adulterer, whether he has wife or not.”  And then He said to all, “Some things men know by being told, while other things they know not till the gate of consciousness shall open up for them. I speak a mystery that you cannot understand now. But you shall someday understand.  A eunuch is a man who does not lust. Some men are born as eunuchs, some are eunuchs by the power of men, and some are eunuchs by the Holy Spirit, who makes them free in God through Christ. He who is able to receive the truth I speak, let him receive.”

 

They said to Him, "Why then did Moses command to give a certificate of divorce, and to put her away?"

He said to them, "Moses, because of the hardness of your hearts, permitted you to divorce your wives, but from the beginning it was not so.  And I say to you, whoever divorces his wife, except for sexual immorality, and marries another, commits adultery; and whoever marries her who is divorced commits adultery." 

His disciples said to Him, “If such is the case of the man with his wife, it is better not to marry." Matthew 19:7-10

 

But He said to them, "All cannot accept this saying, but only those to whom it has been given:  For there are eunuchs who were born thus from their mother's womb, and there are eunuchs who were made eunuchs by men, and there are eunuchs who have made themselves eunuchs for the sake of the kingdom of heaven. He who is able to accept it, let him accept it."  Matthew 19:11-12

 

Explanations:

1.     Marriage is concluded the moment a man and a woman promise or accept to marry each other.

2.     Once the marriage is rites are concluded, divorce is no longer possible, both spiritually and physically, in the present lifetime.

3.     Especially, after the two have lived together and have had romantic or sexual intimacy.

4.     The two are now like two vessels containing two different liquids and which have been mixed together.

5.     Divorce is only possible after the two have died and reincarnated each in a new body.

6.     Spiritually, divorce is not possible, because on spirit divides into two equal halves.

7.     The two halves have a spiritual bond, an unbreakable cord, a tie or link, joining the two.

8.     One problem in the world is that majority are not marrying their true mates, due to general spiritual blindness, ignorance and laziness.

9.     The purpose of certificate of divorce is to serve as a confirmation; to serve as evidence to any other man who may like to marry the woman.

10.            If a woman decides to divorce a man, after marriage, she may go away empty-handed, except with her personal possessions. But, whoever divorces a woman must give her due portions of their possessions before divorce. Do not send a woman away empty-handed. (??? - Confirmation is needed from the Holy Spirit, concerning this matter.)

11.            What God has joined together, let no man put asunder.

12.            And what things God has kept separate, let no man join together.

13.            Do not bring the things of the kingdom of darkness, like weaveons and attachments, into the house of God.

14.            Parents must give their children the free hand to live their own married life.

15.            Do not keep yourself busy dictating for a married couple. Allow them to live the way the like.

16.            Unfortunately, many parents, especially mothers-in-law, have spoilt so many good marriages, by interference, intrusions, insistence or stubbornness.

 

More Explanations

1.     Divorce, after marriage, is not possible in this lifetime, especially if the couple have already exchanged vows, blood and fluid.

2.     Divorce is only possible at the death of the two persons involved in marriage, when their bodies are dead and decomposed. Only then is divorce possible because when they reincarnate, they take new bodies.

3.     Most of the reasons given for divorce do not suffice. They are regarded in heaven as uncountable reasons which are irrelevant excuses.

4.     The reasons and excuses are the signs of spiritual blindness, ignorance and laziness.

5.     They are the marks of selfishness and stubbornness, and are evidences that people are prone to commit evils.

6.     Also, the reasons and excuses show that people are not ready and willing to listen to the Holy Spirit and follow His guidance.

7.      Therefore, every divorce, except on the grounds of adultery, is not allowed. Adultery is either idolatry, which includes evil spirits demons, mermaids, ghosts, idols, charms or black energies; or sexual immorality, which means having sex outside marriage is not valid and is not allowed.

8.     What people enjoy or suffer in their present lifetime are as rewards or punishments for what they did in their previous lifetimes. Yet, nobody is justified to mock or blame another, because humanity are like ignorant children, who are still learning many things in life. Just as a child stumbles and falls down many times when it is learning how to walk. The purpose of mistakes, errors and sins is to teach humanity obedience and humility, as well as carefulness and mastery.

9.     Sex outside marriage, including pre-marital sex, is sin.

10.            Dissolution of marriage is only possible when :

a.  Both couple have died and their bodies decomposed.

b.  When they reincarnate and take up another new (original) bodies.

11.            Spiritually, one person divides into two halves. One half takes up the male body and is called man. The other takes up the female body and is called woman.

12.            In the society, people do not always marry their true wives, respectively, because people are spiritually blind, ignorant and lazy.

13.            Spiritually, divorce is not possible. In spirit, because each half is always connected to the other half by a cord, which is both real and unseen. Time and distance, however great or small, do not keep the two halves away from each other. They are always united as one, and as one person in two selves.

14.            Everybody is busy, knowingly or unknowingly, searching for his or her other half.

15.            The goal of self-completion may be achieved here on earth or in heaven, when the two halves find, recognize and unite with each other. That is why and how sex is not a sin, in marriage.

16.             

 

Against Celibacy

Marriage is both good and necessary, buy celibacy is a cankerworm, if the Holy Spirit is not the abiding power. Besides, marriage is ready-made in heaven, by one spirit that divides into two, one becomes a male and the other a female. So, why should a person deny his other self?

On many occasions, celibacy has done more harm than good. The general public may not know this fact, because of the culture of silence and secrecy of the religious leaders, especially the reverend fathers and sisters, in the face of impunity.

 

Marriage does not prevent people from seeing God. And there is no sacred text or holy book that says that married people cannot see God. Among those who saw God in the past, majority were married. They include:

 

1.     Moses, who had 2 wives

2.     Abraham, who had 3 wives

3.     Isaac, who had 1 wife

4.     Jacob, who had 4 wives

5.     David, who had 7 wives

6.     Solomon, who had 700 wives and 300 concubines

7.     Elders of Israel who had wives

8.     Enoch who had 1 wife

9.     Noah, who had 1 wife

10.                        Peter, who had 1 wife

 

If married people cannot see God, then all married people will not go to Heaven. Also, all the reverend fathers and ministers of God will not go to Heaven, because they are products of marriage.

 

Why A Man And His Wife Are One

“What God has joined together, let no man put asunder.

 

First, in spirit answer in heaven, one spirit divides into two spirits. The stronger one becomes the man, while the weaker one becomes the woman. Before they come down to this world, they were destined to find each other and unite again as husband and wife. This why in heaven, both Adam and Even are regarded as one, as a hero.

 

This explanations tells you the reason who many couples look alike or behave in the same way. And that is why a family is regarded as one unit. Marriage is made in heaven.

 

There are many problems in marriage, called family crisis and marriage failures, because many people marry the wrong partners, out of spiritual blindness, ignorance and laziness.
