Maried couples should change their behavior as necessary if it is harmful neglectful or abusive to their spouse. They should seek the help of a qualified counselor.
Not fulfilling the basic duties required in marriage, he/she may exhibit behavior that shows they are unwilling or unable to be in a marriage relationship. Remember sexual abuse can also be a problem in some marriages. He/She may be physically abusive or verbally cruel and abusive, whether with harsh words or by neglect, refusing to communicate altogether.
(There may be situations in which one’s mental, physical or spiritual health requires some form of separation or divorce.) When ones spouse has taken the decision out of one's hands by refusing to get counseling over a prolonged period of time, the neglected and abused partner has every Biblical right to protect themselves with divorce.
It might seem to happen suddenly, but in reality, the breakup of a marriage typically occurs over a long period. It may happen by one or both spouses neglecting their relationship. It may happen by one or both taking actions adverse to a successful marriage. Marriage relationships often die the death of a thousand cuts—the result of numerous small problems rather than one major one.
Would it be a sin for the Christian to file for separation or divorce? It can seem so, but in reality the spouse acting in an unbelieving manner though professes to be a believer has already broken the marriage contract. Nothing the Christian can do would change that. When this is the case, which party files for divorce may be a moot point. The Christian is not required to separate or divorce, but it would not be a sin for him to do so in these circumstances.
>Your sitting in Judgement! Legalism is a Pharisee problem. We are saved by mercy and grace, not the letter of the law. Where in the Ten Commandments does it say, "You shall not divorce!"
>How dare you! Telling the Lord our God who is chosen.
You need to go back to your Bible studies & take a good look at the Prophets and their sins ie; David & Bathsheba, Samson the womanizer, Solomon & his 3600 wives, Hosea who was told to marry a whore ect. Were they not chosen of God?
>Go back to your hole satan, the accuser of the chosen.
In the name of Jesus…

>If your referring to Ephesians 5:21 or Matthew 5:20 it is refering to a Godly husband and or wife. If they are not and profess to be Christian and their actions say otherwise, these scriptures do not apply. Read your Greek and use a Strongs Concordance. You hypocrite!
