In all of my "unlearning" with the Lord this topic has been one of the most heartbreaking.

In my church upbringing was often quoted, "God hates divorce."

When God began to take me through all of the scriptures regarding divorce and the original language coupled with the culture of the day, dowry's of tradition, and marriage contracts and customs my heart broke as I realized we had sorely missed some critical things about His heart.

Many women have been abused with the scripture and forced to stay in abusive marriages, likewise many of my brothers quit preaching the gospel feeling like they were now disqualified due to a divorce. Listen, being married to one wife has nothing to do with divorce, but it is addressing the polygamy of the day. Be free in Jesus and get back to preaching.

Not every divorce is sin in and of itself. The "Why" is important but most of all we must relook at this passage and the full counsel of the Word to understand what God really hated...

This is not just for those who've been divorced but also for those who minister to people. This is a truth you can not afford to miss for the body of Christ.

So many should be set free to be all they were designed to be...

The blood of Jesus misses nothing, indeed.

Let's talk about it...
