A Divorce- Christians Also Go Through It

A Divorce- Christians Also Go Through ItDivorce is something that thousands of people face every day. This also includesChristians. The debate in the Christian community over divorce is strong anddiverse. Many believe divorce is unacceptable as stated by the lord. Howevermany others believe it is acceptable under certain circumstances.In a divorce Christian faith can be tested and it can be hard to know what to beliefwith so many conflicting statements. However Christianity is all about faith, andmore contemporary Christians acknowledge that reality does not quite goaccording to Gods plan.It is our duty as gods people to try our best to live our lives as god would want,but to also live our lives as we would want. As much as the bible may look downon divorces, it is also a necessary evil.Humans have free will and part of having free will is making mistakes andadapting over time. If god did not want us to evolve he would not have given usthe ability to do so. Because of this gift, we often change over time. The personyou may have married might not be the same person today.Whether you simply grew apart or because a betrayal was committed in yourmarriage, a divorce might often prove to be the best option. A divorce Christianwill suffer a harder time during a divorce then others. Not only must they contendwith all the problems of a divorce, but also the test on their faith as they knowthey are going against gods plan.However we must remind ourselves that god is all knowing, and forgiving of oursins. While he may not like divorces, we know that he will understand. As much asgod may be against divorces, he would be more against you staying in an abusiverelationship or staying with somebody you do not love.Some Christians like to follow the bible to the letter, and use it as a shield andsword in the fight over whether or not a divorce is acceptable. But one thing we

must remember is that the bible was written centuries ago and time changes.What may have been right then may not be right now.As we progress and learn more about ourselves and the universe god put us in,we also become more open to new ideas and realizations. And one suchrealization is that god does not want us to suffer needlessly, and as such wouldnot want us to remain in a relationship we do not want.Ultimately it comes down to you and what your take on the Christian faith is. Thisparticular Christian believes god to be understanding of our plights and forgivingof our transgressions as long as they are not made recklessly and often.If you believe a divorce Christian is acceptable, and do not wish to remain in yourrelationship then you should get out. However if you believe god wants you toremain then by all means, stay and fix your relationship. It all comes down topersonal faith.I am interested in relationship and dating; I survived a break up with the love ofmy life and managed to get her back in less than a month, to download a free e-book on how to get back to your ex, please click here.Read more about my experience and download a FREE relationship e-book in mywebsite http://makingupofbreakup.com/
