The Servant of God “Lessons on Marriage and Divorce, Pt.1” Ma. 10:1-9 The Doctrine of Divorce (vv.1-5) But I say to you that everyone who divorces his wife, except on the ground of sexual immorality, makes her commit adultery, and whoever marries a divorced woman commits adultery…. And I say to you: whoever divorces his wife, except for sexual immorality, and marries another, commits adultery.” (Matt. 5:32; 19:9). The Meaning of Marriage (vv.6-9) Then the Lord God said, “It is not good that the man should be alone; I will make him a helper fit for him.
