5 Bible Verses about Avoid Divorce
Most Relevant Verses
Therefore, those whom God so joins together [in the marriage bond], no person must ever separate."
Now I command married people, although it is [really] the Lord's command [See. Mark 10:2-12]: A wife should not separate from her husband. [Note: This act implies the intention of pursuing a legal and permanent breach of the marriage relationship by divorce. "Separate" and "divorce" appear to be used interchangeably in this section. See verses 11-15].
But I, not the Lord, say this to the rest of you [Note: Paul now addresses the matter of mixed marriages, a circumstance Jesus never taught about]: If any brother has a wife who is an unbeliever, and she agrees to continue living with him [Note: In these verses Paul addresses a situation where one marriage partner is converted after they are married], he should not divorce her.
And the woman with a husband who is an unbeliever, who agrees to continue living with her, should not divorce her husband.
Are you married? [If so], then do not separate [from your mate]. Are you unmarried? [If so], then do not look for a wife.
