When God Makes Two People One

When God makes two people one it is a spiritual matter and cannot be undone by man. It's not a contract it is a melding together of two spirits into one and only is broken at death. It is God's covenant for the marriage.

Mark 10:8-9

"And the two shall become one flesh; so then they are no longer two, but one flesh. Therefore what God has joined together, let not man separate".

Here it says "let no man separate" but the original meaning is "no man can separate what God has joined. The "let" is old English and means "not allowed" or "impossible" or "hinder." It can also mean "do not permit."

Marriage cannot be severed except by death. It is easy to see when someone marries they still maintain their own bodies and personalities and genders, the only thing this passage could mean is the spirits melding together.

This is why God said;

Luke 16:18 "Everyone who divorces his wife and marries another commits adultery, and he who marries a woman divorced from her husband commits adultery".

Divorce by the law of the land does not sever the marriage bond. This is why God did not recognize divorce. The Matthew passage that is used "except for fornication" refers to the Jewish custom of requiring a divorce from the engagement or betrothal before marriage when the woman was considered married before she had vows and before she lived with the man. This was the only allowance for severing the relationship. It was not yet a marriage only a promise to marry.

This is also why God said not to remarry, because the original two people were melded by the spirit.

Once the marriage occurs, the vows are proclaimed and they began living together there was no provision for divorce or remarriage.

Everyone 80 years ago knew this, it was only in the last 50 years the seminaries began teaching the exception clause. We must go to the Holy Spirit and those who love Christ rather than ungodly educated men who have been trained to grow their gatherings through compromise of the Word of God.

What did God say; "if you divorce you sin" and "if you remarry you are committing adultery", not a one time event but an ongoing state of adultery.

This is one of the most hated truths among the apostate churches than any other since the gatherings are full of divorced and remarried people who defend it adamantly. The pastors will not preach on it and if they do they preach wrongly to justify it.

May the eyes of many be opened to this problem of divorce and remarriage in the church.
