Marriage is about sacrifice and raising the next generation of children. Its not about how you feel or fairytales. Pastor rest |

KingLennon:You're forgetting the last part of those verses. "...as unto the Lord". If a woman can submit to Jesus, she'll find strength to submit to her husband not because of the husband but because of Jesus. And if a man knows how much Jesus loves the church and gave His life for the church, the husband will find the strength to love his wife like Jesus loves the church. The third party there is Jesus and I feel people are forgetting Him in their responsibilities and focusing on themselves only. 5 Likes 1 Share |

Some marriages don expire even before their first child clock 20 yrs. Most couples are only stay on extra time. I have noticed that what bind these young marriage together is sex. Once the couples have out grown the age of sexual attraction, things automatically fall apart and the begin to act like room mates. 3 Likes |

KingLennon:Which is one of the things this pastor just said, they grew old together doesn’t mean they were actually together. Some were scared to leave due to societal woe especially the women, some didn’t separate because of their children, some women couldn’t leave because they had no money or business they were doing. 2 Likes 1 Share |

opalu: And what brings forgiveness but LOVE?? Once love is absent in a marriage, it's finished. I thought about it this morning.... What brings love between people, is it sex? No. It's emotional bonding. Friendship. Couples must learn to be best of friends. AGAPE love (God's love) too binds a couple together. 1 Like |

IamMobisola:Ok, I get it. You're trying to say that today's women can't stand the pressure that's why we have high divorce rate? But some didn't have children too but still stayed (I know a few), some had money and were even richer than their husbands yet still stayed.. |

opalu:Which kind forgiver? I can never continue in a marriage with a cheating wife, never. Yes I can forgive her, but even if I forgive her, she will be of no value to me any more, so the best thing for the both of us is to go our separate ways. Mind you, I don't cheat neither do I like people that cheats (either a man or a woman), so I can't just let go if I'm cheated on, never. 2 Likes |

StUriah:You've gone off the road bro. The reverse is actually the case if you carefully consider the chapter of the bible you took that verse from. "But God demonstrates his love towards us in this, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us (he took the risk by dying - leaving us with the choice to accept him or not)". Romans 5:8 He loved us first; Men are admonished to love their wives the way Christ loved the church; To the extent of dying for it, giving his ALL. Don't misquote the bible pls... 1 Like |

In fact, many have 'remarried' many times long ago, and their supposed spouse is an unsuspecting 'ex'. Only if we could resort to the ORIGINAL MANUFACTURER through the LITERATURE that came with the product! |

KingLennon:Yes today’s women can’t stand it that’s why divorce rate is high. Today’s men can’t also stand it, that’s why divorce rate is high. But some are still staying because of the same reasons some of the oldies stayed in their marriage. Rita dominic got married at 36/37, do you know the names she was called before then? Do you know what she faced before then? Same as other women who got married in their late 30s or early 40s. The African society has this belief that a woman is nothing without a husband, this is one of the reasons why some women are still staying with their husbands even after series of domestic violence episodes, this is the reason why some women would rather than with the MRS title. Religion is mother reason why people are still married because it says God hates divorce. See the case of the Late singer Osinachi who suffered years of domestic abuse in the hands of her husband rather than leaving. Studies showed that over 30% of married women died in their hands of their husbands from domestic abuse. Why didn’t they leave? Religion? Society? Same with men who face different issues in their marriages, rather than walking away from it they choose to stay. There are few cases of people who committed suicide because of issues with their spouses 2 Likes |

Lemmy123: It scares you only because you been scared already that Mr God hates divorce. If you know that you can exit a bad marriage at will, it won't scare you. And couples will realise that both need to put efforts to make it work otherwise the other partner might exit |

Lemmy123:The people that entered marriages with warped mindset about marriages caused problems for themselves. Society will always be there to pressure and misguide people, the choice to seek adequate knowledge and make informed choices will always fall on individuals concerned. |

onthehill: For whatever reasons they may have stayed together, it is still better than having dissolved marriages up and down. (Except if violence or life threat was involved). You see, in this era where greed and comparison is "King" , many people don't actually know what they want. Marriage is a LIFETIME, and that is a very long time. You don't expect not to have huge issues that would come your ways. You cant expect life not to happen to you. Every so called "Beautiful marriage" out there have huge issues they are coping with. Don't let anyone decieve you. What is important is that they are coping with it. You have been married for some years and had happy times, and suddenly u face tough times or hard times and the first thing u think of is QUITING! You are not serious. Who told u that life is planned to be rosy always? Even if u are single you will have good times and turbulent times. You must chose to be happy. It is your decision. Cut down on your expectations if need be, and brace up urself for life. Life isn't meant to be a bed of roses! 2 Likes |
