“He answered and said unto them, Have ye not read that he which made them at the beginning made them male and female, and said, For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother; and shall cleave to his wife: and they twain shall be one flesh? Wherefore they are no more twain, but one flesh. What therefore God hath joined together, let no man put asunder.”
Matthew 19:4-6
“Wives, submit yourselves unto your own husbands, as unto the Lord. For the husband is the head of the wife, even as Christ is the head of the church: and he is the saviour of the body. Therefore as the church is subject unto Christ, so let the wives be to their own husbands in everything. Husbands love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself for it; so that he might sanctify and cleanse it with the washing of water by the word, that he might present it to himself as a glorious church, not having spot, or wrinkle, or any such thing: but that it should be holy and without blemish. So ought men to love their wives as their own bodies. He that loveth his wife loveth himself. For no man ever yet hateth his own flesh; but nourisheth and cherisheth it, even as the Lord the church: For we are members of his body, of his flesh, and of his bones. For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and shall be joined unto his wife, and they two shall be one flesh. This is a great mystery: but I speak concerning Christ and the church. Nevertheless let every one of you in particular so love his wife even as himself; and the wife see that she reverence her husband.”
Ephesians 5:22-33
“Marriage is honourable in all, and the bed undefiled: but wh*remongers and adulterers God will judge.”
Hebrews 13:4
“Intreat me not to leave thee, or return from following after thee: for whither thou goest, I will go; and where thou lodgest, I will lodge: thy people shall be my people, and thy God my God: Where thou diest, will I die, and there will I be buried: the Lord do so to me, and more also, if ought but death part thee and me.”
Ruth 1:16-17
“Let the husband render unto the wife due benevolence: and likewise also the wife unto the husband. The wife hath not power of her own body, but the husband: and likewise also the husband hath not power of his own body, but the wife. Defraud ye not one the other, except it be with consent for a time, that ye may give yourselves to fasting and prayer; and come together again, that Satan tempt you not for your incontinency.”
I Corinthians 7:3-5
“Live joyfully with the wife whom thou lovest all the days of the life of thy vanity, which he hath given thee under the sun, all the days of thy vanity: for that is thy portion in this life, and in thy labour which thou takest under the sun. “
Ecclesiastes 9:9
“But from the beginning of the creation God made them male and female. For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and cleave to his wife; And they twain shall be one flesh: so that they are no more twain, but one flesh. What therefore God hath joined together, let not man put asunder.”
Mark 10:6-9

Mark, I was looking for the passage in the Bible about husbands who refuse to have sex with their wives and ask for a divorce. Can you help?

How is a divorce "too easy"??? Cost lots of money, takes more than a month, items bought together are separated, items that were purchased previous from the marriage are now considered community property and are separated, etc. Divorce is not easy but making a marriage work takes two and some don't want to work at it. I think some people value money too much to where we go to work and bring home a paycheck to show our acheivements. But when we get home we don't see a paycheck so we don't think of it as a job so we slack off of the responsibilities that a marriage needs in order to survive. Then a marriages starts to wilt and if nothing is done then it will die. Paychecks can be different things than just monetary value. A life long partner with beautiful values is one of the benefits.

I married the first time too soon. I guess the best way to put it was I loved her for the sex. So I loved her, but I wasn't "in love" with her. BIG difference. And all I was to her was a paycheck. So many excuses why whe just didn't have the time for "us".
My late wife I loved dearly. I was madly in love with her. Sure, we had our problems, but we worked on them. We just never gave up on each other. As sure as I'm sittin' here, I believe with every bone in my body that she loved me the same way.
With the lawyers playing games with other people's problems, they just seem to add fuel to the fire. The more problems they can cause, the more money they will make. That's all they are worried about.

i've never been married but i have seen a lot of them end in divorce. my mother for example, has been married five times to four different men, one of them twice, and also divorced five times. out of her own mouth she said that she married one of the men just to finish paying the house and land off. one was to keep the cars running because of his mechanical aptitude. the others she did not give any specifics on.
in my personal opinion marriage is the leading cause of divorce in the world.

My ex has told me that she should've faced her problems and stayed in the marriage. It's easier to get a divorce than it is to marry, 2 signatures to marry, only 1 to get a divorce started. Do we live in a time where spouses are disposable? How many ads do you see on tv, paper shouting WE CAN GET OUT OF YOUR MARRAIGE, AND GET YOU WHAT YOU DESERVE?!

I think we're a "me" generation. People don't seem to consider that divorce wrecks more lives than just the bride and the groom.
I also think we DO make divorce too easy....
My grandparent's day there weren't choices - you stayed and you learned to make it work...
Now first sign of trouble and dang that grass looks green over there!
C'ya!
Same with dating...
living together...
vows...
all those things are only as good, real and valued as you make them for you...

I was married for 22 years and I didn't take that lightly. We tried but it didn't work out. I keep saying that I will never marry again but if I fell madly in love, I may change my mind.

seems like the ones who divorce once,it is easier to become divoriced again.the struggle of life is passed off to the other as in blame.take the easy way of life.Why should you fight to have,or make an effort to have a relation ship .I hear marriage is a 50/50 prarner ship Bullshit if any partner ship or business agreement is`nt 100/100 then its not going to work for long
