When I was a heathen my wife divorced me on false grounds.
Even though she instituted it I tried to reconcile our marriage after I became a Christian, but she would not have it. The last
time I saw her she was trying to talk my brother into running off
to New York with her. He was wise enough to refuse.
Since I have been a Christian, God has given me a special and very sweet wife and we have seven children who love and
serve the Lord. We don't believe in divorce and have never thought of it because we have Christ as the center of our home. We have been married over 28 years!
One thing people need to understand is that the Bible says,
"What God HAS JOINED TOGETHER - let no man put asunder." God doesn't put heathen marriages together. They
don't consult Him on who they should marry and so they will always marry outside of God's will.
The true sanctity of marriage is found in marriages where people put God first in their lives and consult Him about who they should marry and when married consult Him on everything having to do with their marriage.

My partner and I both support the sanctity of marriage. We have been together for 18 years. I grew up in the Catholic Church all 5 of sister and brothers had church weddings, the funny thing is that of the 6 relationships ours is one of 2 that has lasted. It's funny, it seems that more and more the only ones who really believe in the sanctity of marriage are us gay people, and the religious right has turned us in to the new communist. So on one takes our relationships serious. As for those passing judgment right now, I think I'll wait and let God judge me. At the end of the day it his word and not yours that matters most to me.
No never been divorced but then again you won't let me marry.

People get divorced for various reasons besides just not getting along. If you have a cheater or a beater how can you support the sanctity of marriage? Have I been divorced? Can't figure out why that would interest anyone.

I have been divorced....because my husband did not support the sanctity of marriage. He felt that if I wasn't in the mood to have sex that was a free pass to go get it from everyone else...my sister, my best friend, a 16 yr old girl, some of the guys we hung out with at the time.....the list goes on. I didn't think he was setting a good example for our children. That and every time I turned around he was accusing me of sleeping with every guy we met (we didn't even have to know them very well)

Yes, I support the santity of marriage. And yes I have been divorced. I wasn't a christian at that time in my life. The why's and how comes are between God and myself. I believe that I had biblical cause and that God forgave me for breaking covenant. I don't think he wants any of his children to live the life that I lived, or many of the other people that lived in a dead marriage.
As a Christian now, I think that he would look at mariage totally different. I am bound by a different promise. I am his bride and that is a whole different question and answer.

I don't know if "sanctity" is the correct word here....
My husband and I are BOTH jealous people when it comes to someone else hitting on one of us, and unless one of us somewhere down the road begins to become abusive or cheats, no, we'll not divorce. We love each other, and only abuse or cheating would cause trouble in our marriage.
BUT, I do not believe you should stay in a marriage if there is abuse or cheating (even emotionally). I DO think that you shouldn't get married unless you "know", and if there are ANY doubts, then don't do it.

I am getting a divorce. I definatly believe in the sanctity of marriage and even after my husband cheated on me while I was pregnant I forgave him and told him we would work it out.
He then said he did not love me anymore and said it was over.
You really have no choice at that point, and now I have a wonderful man in my life who is 1,000 times the father and partner that my ex-to-be was.

I support the sanctity of marriage- between a man and a woman. My husband and I have been married almost 26 years. We have and still are going through sickness, and financial problem- but still are living by the vows we made before God- In sickness and in health, for richer or poorer. Marriage is for life!!!
