My Wife and I as Christians, don't believe in divorce. Why? Blood covenant!

A blood covenant between two parties is the closest, the most enduring, the
most solemn and the most sacred of all contracts. It absoutely cannot be
broken. When you enter into blood covenant with someone, you promise to
give them your life, your love and your protection forever ... till death
do you part. Marriage is a blood covenant. Many don't honor marriage as a
blood covenant but God says it is. [Malachi 2:14; Proverbs 2:17]

When the bride and groom feed each other the wedding cake, they are saying
symbolically, "I'm coming into you and you into me. The two of us are
becoming one." This symbolic union is made complete by the physical act of
marriage when the groom and bride come together as husband and wife. The
blood covenant is consumated when the hymen is broken. You see now why God
says pre and extra-marital physical intercourse is a sin. [Ex 20:14; Mt
5:27; 1 Cor 6:18; 10:8; Gal 5:19]

The reason we wear the wedding ring on the third finger is because man
believed that the third finger had a nerve leading to the heart. And since
the heart is the central part of the body that keeps the blood circulating,
it became the symbol of life.

We use the word "heart" to represent the total person. It stands for your
whole being, your whole nature, your whole life. When you love someone with
all your heart, you love them with all your being. When you give your heart
to someone, you are giving them your total life.

Now Jesus said, "Mat 5:31 It hath been said, Whosoever shall put away his
wife, let him give her a writing of divorcement: 32 But I say unto you,
That whosoever shall put away his wife, saving for the cause of
fornication, causeth her to commit adultery: and whosoever shall marry her
that is divorced committeth adultery."

Now the word "fornication," means sex before marriage. A women that has
sexual intercourse breaks her hymen. She has broken her blood with another
man. If she marries and does not tell her husband that she broke her hymen,
then the husband can divorce her, For there was no blood covenant broken.
But also if the husband is truly in love with her, he will allow his love
for her to over look the broken hymen and love her till death do they part.


Mat 19:3 The Pharisees also came unto him, tempting him, and saying unto
him, Is it lawful for a man to put away his wife for every cause?

Know notice they said "for every cause?"

4 And he answered and said unto them, Have ye not read, that he which made
them at the beginning made them male and female, 5 And said, For this cause
shall a man leave father and mother, and shall cleave to his wife: and they
twain shall be one flesh? 6 Wherefore they are no more twain, but one
flesh. What therefore God hath joined together, let not man put asunder.

Now they are no longer two, but one flesh. And "What therefore God hath
joined together, let not man put asunder."

Mat 19:7 They say unto him, Why did Moses then command to give a writing of
divorcement, and to put her away? 8 He saith unto them, Moses because of
the hardness of your hearts suffered you to put away your wives: but from
the beginning it was not so.

It is the hardness of ones heart that cause divorce. "But from the
beginning it was not so."

Mat 19:9 And I say unto you, Whosoever shall put away his wife, except it
be for fornication, and shall marry another, committeth adultery: and whoso
marrieth her which is put away doth commit adultery.

Again Jesus gives grounds for divorce as "fornication."

When I meet my wife, she told me she give her hymen to another man. But! I
new in my heart she was mine from the Lord. And we got married. It has been
11 years now and she is a blessing indeed from above. Now she can and could
have divorce me because of many false teachings in many of the churchs
today. But the Lord taught us that marriage is forever! And till death do
we depart.

Love through Him, Who first loved US!
