Ever wondered why Jesus spoke so strongly against divorce? Pastor Ken Davis dives deep into the spiritual reality of marriage as he examines Jesus's confrontation with the Pharisees in Matthew 19. With unflinching clarity, he declares, "Sin is sin. Adultery is sin. Divorce is sin."

The message reveals how the Pharisees misused Moses's divorce allowance as justification for ending marriages "for any reason." Jesus counters by pointing to creation itself—God's original design where two become one flesh. This spiritual union explains why divorce causes such profound damage. As Pastor Ken powerfully illustrates, "Divorce is like amputation. You can survive it, but there's less of you left after it."

Through careful examination of Scripture, Pastor Ken uncovers the true purpose behind Moses's divorce certificate—not to encourage separation but to protect vulnerable women in a patriarchal society. He explores why Jesus said a man who divorces his wife "causes her to commit adultery," revealing that sin never remains contained but "gets all over everything."

What makes this teaching particularly powerful is its balance of truth and grace. While maintaining God's high standard for marriage, Pastor Ken testifies that "there is no marriage God cannot heal" when couples submit to Him with humility and forgiveness. Even after adultery, reconciliation remains possible through God's redemptive power.

Whether you're married, divorced, single, or somewhere in between, this message will transform your understanding of God's heart for marriage. It challenges us to view our commitments through His eyes and to let our "yes be yes." Tune in for a compassionate yet uncompromising look at one of Jesus's most challenging teachings.
