Divorce

1 Cor 7:10 To the married I give this command (not I, but the Lord): A wife must not separate from her husband.

Mathew 5
31 "It has been said, 'Anyone who divorces his wife must give her a certificate of divorce.' 32 But I tell you that anyone who divorces his wife, except for marital unfaithfulness, causes her to become an adulteress, and anyone who marries the divorced woman commits adultery.

Ro 8:35 Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword?

The same Hebrew word for Divorce is used for the word separate. In Romans we can see that nothing will separate us from the love of Christ. It should be just as impossible for a marriage built on Christ's foundation to separate.

Now it is obvious if Marriage is built on Christ's foundation, we will avoid the prevision Christ set our for divorce.

More over we just must love our spouses as Christ loved the church.

Ephesians 5:25
Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her
