another question????
jennie:
I have a question about divorce. From what I understand there is one Biblical reason for divorce which is infidelity. My parents were divorced for that reason. Now I find myself in the position of giving an answer about divorce to a friend. To my knowledge there has been no infidelity(physical) but there is another person involved . This is a case , i think < of "the grass seeming greener" but unfortunately an innocent child is involved. I am living proof of the damage caused by a split home. All the regulars... low self esteem, unworthy of love, and for a time alcohol abuse. What do I say to someone about this? I don't want to be cruel and I just am at a loss as how to handle this. Any help will be very much appreciated.

Matthew 7:2 For in the same way you judge others, you will be judged, and with the measure you use, it will be measured to you.
Is this ongoing or a one time thing? if it is ongoing well then they have grounds for devoice, but they should think of any children. If it is a one time thing they should forgive, and by forgive I mean forget.

Thanks ya'll for the help. I haven't listened to the link but will do so. This, unfortunately is something that has been on-going. I told my friend that no matter what she should not be disrespectful of the father to the child. I am quite close to the child as she is my god-daughter and she talks to me pretty freely. I just hate that she is going to have to go through something like this. Right now the Dad is just thinking about what he wants which has nothing to do with his little girl and the mom is so destroyed she is focused mainly on herself so this kid is sort of on her own.

Divorce is not the answer. But you cant get people to see that. Not the natural way man thinks. I went through the infidelity thing with my mate. Two times. But I forgave him and we have a better marries today, then we did our first 12 yrs. We have been togethor 41 years and we have three grown children and 7 grandchildren. I stayed by his side. We grew up in all we went through togethor. We humans are not perfect. We are sinners. We have to forgive, like Jesus said to do. I pray she is a Christain lady, who obeys Gods Laws.~Karen~
