A HUSBAND OR WIFE SHOULD QUICKLY SEEK THE PASTOR’S HELP ONCE IT IS CLEAR THAT THE TWO OF THEM CAN NO LONGER MANAGE THEIR AFFAIRS PRIVATELY AND THE MARRIAGE IS ABOUT TO BREAK DOWN COMPLETELY OR WHEN EITHER OF THE PARTIES CONCERNED IS BECOMING VIOLENT OR PHYSICALLY ABUSIVE.

“Where no counsel is, the people fall: but in the multitude of counsellors there is safety.” – Proverbs 11: 14

“For the Lord, the God of Israel, saith that he hateth putting away: for one covereth violence with his garment, saith the Lord of hosts: therefore take heed to your spirit, that ye deal not treacherously.” – Malachi 2: 16

“Charity suffereth long, and is kind; charity envieth not; charity vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up, doth not behave itself unseemly, seeketh not her own, is not easily provoked, thinketh no evil; rejoiceth not in iniquity, but rejoiceth in the truth; beareth all things, believeth all things, hopeth all things, endureth all things.” – 1 Corinthians 13: 4-7

“Husbands, love your wives, and be not bitter against them.” – Colossians 3: 19

“Likewise, ye wives, be in subjection to your own husbands; that, if any obey not the word, they also may without the word be won by the conversation of the wives; while they behold your chaste conversation coupled with fear. Whose adorning let it not be that outward adorning of plaiting the hair, and of wearing of gold, or of putting on of apparel; but let it be the hidden man of the heart, in that which is not corruptible, even the ornament of a meek and quiet spirit, which is in the sight of God of great price. For after this manner in the old time the holy women also, who trusted in God, adorned themselves, being in subjection unto their own husbands: Even as Sara obeyed Abraham, calling him lord: whose daughters ye are, as long as ye do well, and are not afraid with any amazement. Likewise, ye husbands, dwell with them according to knowledge, giving honour unto the wife, as unto the weaker vessel, and as being heirs together of the grace of life; that your prayers be not hindered.” – 1 Peter 3: 1-7
