Instead of dying in marriage..it's better to walk away and ask God for forgiveness..

Magnoliaa:
Marriage is what you make and think of it. And well, since it's a Christian concept, it's best to see or put that phrase within such context. A Christian marriage does not foster all those toxicity you've mentioned, and to me, that's the deepest declaration of commitment to an other half in a Christ-centered relationship. Relating with each other just as God relates with Christ, and Him us.

Human culture, nature f**ks a lot of things up. Including biblical truths. So, yeah, I see how that line could spell disaster in just any kind of marriage. Otherwise, it's not that deep and caging to me. It's just ... like you declaring that you won't bolt at the slightest irritation or shake. Working together, through the tough times. We'll like people to always have our back in every situation. In health, sickness. And now, I do truly think every counsel God gives us is aimed at getting the maximum benefit out of relating with each other. Every thing about Him is driven towards relationship, and that's what we are meant for as well. Relating with Him and amongst ourselves. Till death do us part. The permanence implied in that as well is charged towards experiencing that deep and fulfilling level of intimacy and satisfaction. The room to explore each other and every area to the fullest. All of these -- provided you pick a suitable you like, love, whatever.

This is just my understanding of it...

According to the Christian faith, especially in most denominations as we may know, it has been noted that their practice as it regards to the prerequisites of wedding rites and obligations during marital vows connotes lines such as;

"For better or for worse, in sickness and in health, till death do us part"

Well, my take on this subject is an emphatic WTF !.

This is the 21st century and the world is a lot smarter than it was some decades ago. As far as I know, that line of marital vow is out of place and should not be included in any vow of any sort.

○People get married and suffer abuses

○People get married and get death threats

○People get married and do not find happiness

○People get married and get nearly bored to death

○People get married and can no longer tolerate their partner

○People get married and suffer a great ordeal and abuse from an inlaw

○People suffer domestic violence.

○People get married and become lonely

The list is endless, so why tell someone "for better or for worse until death?

I believe people should be encouraged to take a walk away from an unhealthy marriage that ain't working....using legal means for divorce.


What do you think fellow NAIRALANDERS??

Marriage is definitely not a "Christian" concept.

yanabasee1:
I am totally against divorce.....


I believe that two people coming together doesn't really come that easy as one will have to endure the other and that's what marriage is all about....

But for some people who can't endure or manage pressure...marriage shouldn't be a thing for them...


Know of you can fit into marriage before making plans towards it or not... These days, you can easily get a girl pregnant and take the child and groom the child.... Some women sleep with random men and get pregnant and groom the kid by themselves...


So you chose happiness in whichever form you want to...

I was talking about the phrase, lol. 'For better or for worse.' I don't think there's an actual, literal line like that in the Bible... But the ideas are certainly found in the Bible. A Christian idea that's likely been westernized or something. So if you're picking anything out of the Bible, it'll be so much of an error interpreting/applying them wayyy out of their biblical backgrounds.

cooooooks:
Did people stay married 'for better or for worse' before Jesus?

Magnoliaa:


Was "for better or for worse" a thing before Jesus? What's your point?

BadRadio:
I dont get your point bro

Times have changed.

Marriage should no longer be for better or for worse

Why should I tie myself to one toto for the rest of my life?
