Max,

I ask you what you think of Matt. 19:10,11:

Quote
The disciples said to Him, "If the relationship of the man with his wife is like this, it is better not to marry." But He said to them, "Not all men can accept this statement, but only those to whom it has been given."

According to your logic, this means that we should not marry, period.

I also ask you what you think of Matt. 19:12:

Quote
For there are eunuchs who were born that way from their mother's womb; and there are eunuchs who were made eunuchs by men; and there are also eunuchs who made themselves eunuchs for the sake of the kingdom of heaven. He who is able to accept this, let him accept it.

According to your logic, this means that we all ought to "make ourselves eunuchs for the sake of the kingdom of heaven."

We are allowed to divorce for reason of adultery, though certainly not required to do so. If an unbelieving spouse leaves, however, we are not encouraged to be reconciled, but rather "God has called us to peace" (I Cor. 7:15).

I tell you, this man went down to his house justified.
