Therefore what God has joined together, let no one separate **

Mark 10:1-12

Some Pharisees came and tested him by asking, “Is it lawful for a man to divorce his wife?”  

“What did Moses command you?” he replied. They said, “Moses permitted a man to write a certificate of divorce and send her away.” 

“It was because your hearts were hard that Moses wrote you this law,” Jesus replied. “But at the beginning of creation God ‘made them male and female.’[a]  ‘For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and the two will become one flesh.’ So they are no longer two, but one flesh. Therefore what God has joined together, let no one separate.”

“Anyone who divorces his wife and marries another woman commits adultery against her. And if she divorces her husband and marries another man, she commits adultery.”

Why?

If it is not for adultery, no one can divorce his wife or husband. Because human being hearts were hard that Moses wrote this law to permit a man to write a certificate of divorce.

In the beginning, God's creation, man and woman marry is the two become one flesh.

耶穌一直受到法利賽人的挑戰，在婚約中找破綻想要找耶穌麻煩。人喜歡問可以不可以做?吩咐與可以不可以不一樣。吩咐： 為了不讓人犯更大的罪，所以訂出可以休妻。神允許的是讓人有公義，吩咐不是許可！吩咐是說出神的心意！許多聖經沒有說的，聖經告訴人神喜悅的是什麼?明白神的心意。聖經不是告訴人什麼事可不可以。律法只是最低的標準。國家法律只是道德最低標準。律法的總綱是愛。離婚不能讓外遇合理化。這裏不是討論可不可以離婚！我們若愛主就不會問可不可以，而是問神是否喜悅?

How?

In marriage and in our home is the testimony to others for we are family to Jesus.
