Stop Divorce And Keep Couples Together
Divorce has become quite a large problem and if anything a profitable business for divorce lawyers. It almost seems like divorce happens to be becoming the final resort to marriage. Almost a planned process that every couple goes through. Why is it that this is the case? Well there are several reasons that this could be what is happening. Some of which include outside stresses related to family, and even couples who really aren’t ready to get married but take the leap for whatever reason.
Perhaps one of the most influential reasons why couples get married so quickly now in days is societies view on relationships and the need for marriage. How often have you known a couple that has only been together a short time and is already constantly harassed by everyone about when they are going to “tie the knot”? We have apparently replaced the end goal of a relationship with marriage instead of happiness.
Why is it that we get married? Generally the answer to that question should be a desire to be with another for the duration of your life. However I am not sure that everyone really understands that or realizes just how long one life span really is.
A marriage shouldn’t be founded on the principles of young love, love due to a child, or a desire to make others happy instead of you. It is in these relationships that the marriage ends up failing and divorce is the only answer for these couples.
Divorce is extremely damaging to the family unit. Especially if it happens to involve children or anyone other than the two parties involved. People tend to be selfish to an extent in a marriage. They don’t really understand what the institution of marriage is actually and they regularly abuse its privileges and its benefits. It should be considered a great deal by both parties before agreeing to partake in the ceremony. Everyone has to realize that when a marriage ends and there is a family created they are then split. Children are unaware of what is actually happening most of the time.
For these reasons couples really need to consider what it means to partake in marriage. They need to be ready to completely and utterly be there and be supportive of their spouse. They need to work to stop divorce.

50 years ago the majority of Christians would have been livid if someone would have suggested that marriage was not permanent. The world has now fallen for one of Satan’s greatest deceptions.
“A wife is married to her husband as long as he lives.”
1 Corinthians 7:39
“For example, by law a married woman is bound to her husband as long as he is alive, but if her husband dies, she is released from the law of marriage. So then, if she marries another man while her husband is still alive, she is called an adulteress. But if her husband dies, she is released from that law and is not an adulteress, even though she marries another man.”
Romans 7:2-3
“Anyone who divorces his wife and marries another woman commits adultery and the man who marries a woman divorced from her husband commits adultery.” –Jesus Christ
“Look at the legalized adultery we call divorce. Men marry one wife after another and are still admitted into good society; and women do likewise. There are thousands of supposedly respectable men in American living with other men’s wives, and thousands of supposedly respectable women living with other women’s husbands.”
– R. A. Torrey
