Are there any biblical grounds for divorce and remarriage?
February 10, 2009
While the Scriptures take the marriage covenant very seriously, they permit divorce and remarriage in some situations. To learn exactly what these circumstances are, we will begin with the Old Testament regulations of divorce and remarriage. Then we will consider the words of Jesus on this subject. And finally, we will look at the instructions given by the apostle Paul.
“…RESPECT…MARRIAGE…BE FAITHFUL TO YOUR PARTNER…”
February 7, 2009
What was once labelled infidelity and carried a stigma, is now an affair, a nice-sounding, almost inviting word wrapped in mystery and excitement, a relationship not a sin. What was once a secret closely guarded, is now a bling thing…headlines, a TV theme, a bestseller, as common as the cold’. One song goes, ‘I don’t care what’s right or wrong…Just help me make it through.
Husbands who love like Christ and the Wives who submit to them
January 11, 2009
Now why is the coming together of a man and woman to form one flesh in marriage a mystery? Marriage is like a metaphor or an image or a picture or parable that stands for something more than a man and a woman becoming one flesh. It stands for the relationship between Christ and the church.
Talk to Me The Story of Isaac and Rebekah
December 22, 2008
God promised Abraham he would be the father of a great nation. In order to enjoy that privileged position, he obviously had to have a son, and we have traced the struggles of faith that finally brought Abraham and Sarah their son.

GOD, MARRIAGE AND CHILDREN
February 7, 2009
Some Pharisees came to Jesus to test him about his views of marriage and the law. They ask if it is lawful for a man to divorce his wife. Moses' teaching on divorce permitted divorce if a man would not be cavalier about it but would write a certificate of divorce. Jesus responds with words that seem to imply:something greater than Moses is here, and changes are in the ...
Two to Get Ready The Story of Boaz and Ruth
February 7, 2009
The first thing that strikes us about these two whom God brought together by His grace is their spiritual preparation. Through their testimony, this young Moabite named Ruth turned from worshiping Chemosh, the God of the Moabites, with all the abominable practices associated with his worship, and put her trust in the one true and living God.
Divorce Pain
October 26, 2008
Divorce is never easy. It is a painful, heart-breaking experience for everyone involved. Families are torn apart, leaving confused, angry, and hurting children. No one "wins" in divorce. When you first begin to go through a divorce, your main thought is survival. You want to "just get through" the excruciating pain and keep up with life.
The Makings of a Christian Marriage
October 26, 2008
Our culture shapes our thinking and conduct regarding marriage to an incredible degree. Culture does play a very significant role in our attitudes and actions regarding marriage. The Christian must not be shaped by his culture, but by the cross of Christ, the Word of God, and the Spirit of God:
The Qualities Of A Godly Mate
October 25, 2008
Many of the marriages in the Bible are less than ideal. Sarah, Abraham’s wife, has always struck me as being cranky and bossy. Job’s wife offered little comfort in the midst of his trials. In fact, it might have been considered a blessing for her to have been taken in one of the disasters that wiped out his children and his flocks.
Marriage, Abortion and Divorce
October 7, 2008
The Bible is very clear on all points which relate to marriage. In the wisdom and plan of Almighty God the marriage relationship between man and woman was provided. After God had created the earth and prepared it in every way to be suitable to man, He said, “It is not good that the man should be alone; I will make him an help meet for him” (Gen. 2
