Woooooow this truly helped me so much, Tim.....I've been divorced for years now, and someone told me I would have to wait for my ex to, Tim this has set me free....no more condemnation for me....✝️🤟🏻💜🙏🏻❤

It didn't speak. Joni return someone's husband.

I knew both Dr. Doug and his first wife Lisea. I am aware of one issue. I highly respect Jimmy Evans if he thought it was a sin or wrong he would have said something. He saw the major issue they had. She probably did have to sign a non-disclosure in the divorce. So don't judge until you know what happened.

And not only that, his wife is still alive,he divorced her then married Joni, but God is the judge

She is manipulating the audience in her doomed marriage!

Malachi 2 vs 16 we sin when we divorce our spouse in God eyes that's a sin vengeance belong only to God that's why the churches are full of adulterer because no one is standing on God word too many blind guide leading so a lot of people are following the blind john 10 vs 1 - 10 we only need to follow God's example Jesus is the only way the truth and the life 🙏🙏🙏

Agree. Unfortunately Joni has chosen charm and lust over God's Word and family. She's using every possible platform, including her new book to justify this relationship. She needs to step down from national christian television.

But even if she does depart, let her remain unmarried or be reconciled to her husband. And a husband is not to divorce his wife. -1 Corinthians 7 : 11

Yes!!!

The excuses that some people use for getting married, claiming that God told them to do so, is not a valid reason. Ultimately, it is their own responsibility to make wise decisions based on listening to their inner voice rather than giving in to their personal desires. People need to stop lying on God.

You do know that God does speak to His children, right?

Yeah I don't come from money and in 2017 when God called me to marry #trumpjr I still am like living off of two hundred and ten dollars all from SSI. I really do need God's Active Love. Read my song ( Sorry America ) because that's the truth.

May I ask, setting them free is it gonna be based on Biblical teaching, command and instructions or your own opinion and views on what you think God wants? My question is how are you going to set some of us free when Jesus is the only One Who sets people free🤷

Yes. Where is Jonathan and Susie? I pray for them. And hoping Joni has a prenup.

Her sweet son Jonathan grieving over his dad the only son of Marcus. Joni put another man in Jonathan's position to carry on for his dad. Joni has hurt him dearly she acts as if she's done nothing. God has taken note of it all. Jonathan and Susie prayers for you. Bless you

They were replaced by Doug !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Amen

I feel terrible for her😢

She probably had to sign a NDA.

@spottidottie5849 What is with all you people, you all call yourselves Christians but oh my goodness are you all judging Joni and Doug. Shame on all of you

Thanks for your spiritual decernment, because Doug's wife is completely left out of the picture and she is the intergual part of this story, we are only hearing how wonderful Joni's story is, and how God has brought her and Doug together, which according to her was confirmed in a dream, my problem is this the person did not see Doug in the dream, this is only spectuulation. The scriptures is very clear on the Bibical Christian's Bibical permission for remarrage after devorce and Doug does not fall into the bibical criteria. This marrage is an unbibical marrage and God is not in it, and the sad part of this union, is that Doug has been councelling married Couples for years. Please Tim don't compromise the scriptures to to support Joni's departing from God's words. Amen.

Amen!!!! Truth!

Jimmy Evans did not share biblical advice to Doug and Joni. They are in the sin of adultery!

AMEN

But even if she does depart, let her remain unmarried or be reconciled to her husband. And a husband is not to divorce his wife. -1 Corinthians 7 : 11

He is also an accomplice in marrying a divorced man.

Absolutely right. It’s truly sad

It’s even more hidden with women.

Yep exactly!!!! It happened to me

My husband cheated. The church treated me horrible and he's sitting in church like he's a saint

Yes!

I saw that and I can't watch her ever again

He’s very creepy .

IF ..this marriage is NOT from GOD..and built on LUST. but mistaken for love. It will CRASH AND BURN. js ( don't come for me .I am not wishing anything on their marriage...I am just STATING A FACT!)

Don’t watch it either. It’s not that she married again it’s that guy is kind of creepy

Yes I think Christians can get a divorce, the different types of horrible marriages that exist and can’t be fixed because of a million different reasons are not going to get better, unless both people serve the Lord and work hard at making things work out

Same here. I have prayed about this same thing because I am divorced as well more than once. When I married before I was young and broken. I also ended a relationship 6 years ago that was ungodly. I have been single ever since.. I surrender everything to God.. God has healed me from so much mentally emotionally spiritually.. But I would like to experience love now that I am older and made whole. If it’s God’s will but if not I pray God fill me up every day with his goodness and glory. I pray Lord for both of us help us to know your will. God we trust you that you would never leave us or forsake us. I pray for Love, joy and peace in the name of Jesus. Amen

You left a marriage as an unbeliever. This means your former spouse was free to remarry.

@@alexweaver7558 correct but I am not free to remarry. As a believer now, leaving the marriage I would be committing adultery.

@@kgodsgirl If your first marriage was a first marriage for each of you, you both are in covenant with one another. If your spouse has passed, you are free to marry .... but only a believer and one that is not in covenant with a spouse, divorced or not.

@@alexweaver7558 No! If this was a covenant marriage, believer or not, the covenant remains til death. The verse you are referring to allows the person to leave ... but the covenant remains. Then one must stay single or reconcile. If one's covenant spouse has passed, then one can marry.... but only to someone who is a believer and does not have a covenant spouse!

Personally I think Lisa should be left alone and I respect her for not going onto every possible platform (which is what Joni is doing) to defend herself. She is a private individual, she did not choose to blast her personal life on international christian television. I'm sure she is dealing with hurt, betrayal and humiliation. Hopefully she has true friends who will be there when she wants them around but will give her space when she wants it. Doug and Joni brought this upon themselves for blasting their lavish wedding and reception on international christian television. They could have kept it private (they are in their 60's and on their second marriage) and there was no need for Doug to fill in the host seat. Joni has three adult children and their spouses who are capable and happy to sit next to her as the co-host.

@@joycemullane5337 I don't expect her to broadcast her personal life on social media. I am just curious, because divorce is a serious matter especially for Christians and high profile figures especially those who are involved in counselling need to set the right example. I don't want to be judgemental on this matter. That is between the parties involved and God.

@@jonathanhall7815 Agree.

Unfortunately I believe Joni has fallen for attention, charm and lust and she's been convinced that the relationship is a Love Miracle from God. At some point the excitement of a new relationship and the honeymoon phase will pass and she'll have to deal with the consequences of her recent choices.

Jimmy Evans got kicked out of Gateway because of his rebellion. She chose to follow the rebel.

The key word is remarrying while ur spouse is alive is a sin. This is what the Bible say, when it come to christian in the new testament. but the old testament Moses allow people to Divorce. Because of our unfaithfulness. On my side I can not blame a person for remarrying. Because I understand the power of the fresh. The body will keep on having feelings. Life is not easy. Not everyone can live a sexless life. If the spouse start to cheat, abuse etc. How can I change that person. ? If that person did not have a desire to change. ? If u are able to stay alone. That's great. But what about someone's who is not able to stay alone? Better to remarry & remain faithful to that second wife/husband.

God has given free will.. It's a choice our will or follow God's will... I'll follow God's will.

I am no longer a fan of Jimmy Evans !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I would disagree. There is no need for individuals to hear from Lisa. She is going through a very difficult season of hurt, betrayal and humiliation. She needs to be left alone to process and heal from the divorce. Hopefully she has true friends who will be there for her when she wants them to be. She's a private person, always has been. She shouldn't be forced to make her life/marriage/divorce public on social media just because Joni and Doug have chosen to do so with their engagement/wedding/reception and on going photos of them together. As for Joni and Doug, they chose to blast their lavish extravagant wedding and reception on international christian television and social media, did they really think everyone would just accept it like Jimmy Evans, her daughters, her besties and millions who idolize her just because she's Joni Lamb? She chose attention, charm and lust over God's Word and family. She can tell her story to make it sound like 'Love's Miracle', and that God brought them together but she's being deceitful to the Daystar Partners and viewers. Doug placed the "courtesy call" (that's what they're calling it, seems it was an opportunity call); Joni was lonely and vulnerable, she fell for attention, charm and lust; Doug is now seated in the position Marcus was grooming Jonathan to fulfill; Doug was successful in getting what he wanted. At their wedding reception his friend gave a toast in which he commented, Doug is a go getter, he won't stop until he gets what he wants..... bingo!

@@joycemullane5337they point they’re making it that there’s two sides to the story and things aren’t adding up.

I don't agree with the relationship or their timeline story., but they are adults and make their own decision and will have to deal with any consequences from their choices. I feel very strongly that the two of them should step down from national christian television, but I also realize this will not happen since they both thrive from power and being in front of the camera.

@@joycemullane5337 I do so agree…both Joni and Doug appear to strive for power, control and money and being on TV! They constantly talk about themselves and God appears to fade in the background at times!!

@@elsiezimmerman4304 My parents always taught us "actions speak greater then words".....they know the words to speak to sound godly, but their lifestyle speak so much louder.

@@joycemullane5337 Agree!!

Joni I am wondering if you checked in with Mr Doug's wife to hear her story, to see if she needed help and prayers for healing, deliverance and restoration. Did she release you and give you her blessings to marry her husband? What about their children. Did you listen to their stories and offered any kind of support for their broken hearts. I have been in a very similar position to that of Mrs Weis. Did you show mercy only to Mr Doug who had been seizing his opportunity with the python spirit to seduce and swallow your destiny. Please reach out to Almighty God again in fasting and prayer and let the Lord judge Mr Doug who quickly moved into your life to hijack and steal your destiny and ministry. He wants fame and fortune!

Do Jonathon and Suzy see it as shady and not of God?

SO true!!

No she didn’t. Not her best friend 😂

Looks like they pre planned their wedding while poor Marcus was alive! Marcus was a man of God, he knew the scriptures inside out!

And just after his recent divorce.

@@tehaunadickey3552they were all friends.

Gossiping is also a sin!! Leave them alone.

This isn’t gossiping… she shares her life when she is in public ministry. She is held accountable for her choices… we have a view and a duty to call it out. He left his wife for her as soon as Marcus died. She has acted like a teenager even choosing glorifying her husband over her firstborn son. And she is lying about how they got into the relationship. We all saw them together as friends before Marcus died. This is all a lie and it will come to light on God’s time.

Show the scripture that says divorce is sin? And "putting away" is NOT the same as divorce, BTW.

Proverb 8:13 , Proverbs 6:16 and Malachi 2:16 lists some stuff that God hates: Divorce is one of them js. Jesus help UR bride

I too, am encouraged by most of the comments that I have had tears of joy stream down my face because Christians are not being deceived. Jesus is clear about divorce and remarriage. I have been divorced for over a decade. I absolutely, want to remarry; however, I cannot. My ex is still living. It's that simple. I am not exempt from Jesus on remarriage. Is there special exemption for Joni and Doug????? I met a man recently and he was interested romantically in me. I told him I don't date/can't date. He started talking Old testament and what he felt and that I could remarry. This man is also divorced with a living wife. My response. I don't live my life on how I feel. I live my life Thus says the Lord. No one is going to pressure me to remarry. Again,the Word is clear on divorce and remarriage.

cortectky well.She is already old ,yet destroyed her ministry vs a love lust to a divorced man.Stop your mouth.

This is the nonsense that keeps women in abuse.

Show me the scripture in the Bible that says divorce is a covenant only broke by death

No one said divorce is a covenant. Marriage is a covenant that we make in the eyes of our Lord God Almighty Divorce is a legal document that separates a partnership. God never allowed divorce, but because of the hardness of our hearts, Moses allowed it. I'm divorced, but l have chosen to stay as l am because l now have made Jesus my new Husband, so no one is fit to come between us. Even Godly men have their issues as well therefore its best to live a simple life with having peace and joy in my heart... because of Jesus its only Jesus

“Moses allowed it but he is not God” you pray and let God answer you not a pastor. ”The Lord said to me, “Go, show your love to your wife again, though she is loved by another man and is an adulteress. Love her as the Lord loves the Israelites, though they turn to other gods and love the sacred raisin cakes.”“ ‭‭Hosea‬ ‭3‬:‭1‬ ‭NIV‬‬ Jesus says sin no more with adultery, 13:45 ”“No one, sir,” she said. “Then neither do I condemn you,” Jesus declared. “Go now and leave your life of sin.”“ ‭‭John‬ ‭8‬:‭11‬ ‭NIV‬‬

‭‭Matthew 19:1-12 NASB1995‬‬ [1] When Jesus had finished these words, He departed from Galilee and came into the region of Judea beyond the Jordan; [2] and large crowds followed Him, and He healed them there. [3] Some Pharisees came to Jesus, testing Him and asking, “Is it lawful for a man to divorce his wife for any reason at all?” [4] And He answered and said, “Have you not read that He who created them from the beginning made them male and female, [5] and said, ‘For this reason a man shall leave his father and mother and be joined to his wife, and the two shall become one flesh’? [6] So they are no longer two, but one flesh. What therefore God has joined together, let no man separate.” [7] They *said to Him, “Why then did Moses command to give her a certificate of divorce and send her away?” [8] He *said to them, “Because of your hardness of heart Moses permitted you to divorce your wives; but from the beginning it has not been this way. [9] And I say to you, whoever divorces his wife, except for immorality, and marries another woman commits adultery.” [10] The disciples *said to Him, “If the relationship of the man with his wife is like this, it is better not to marry.” [11] But He said to them, “Not all men can accept this statement, but only those to whom it has been given. [12] 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.” Be well and be at peace.

DISINGENUOUS

This is most helpful… thanks.

Excellent summary of what is very clearly stated in scripture. You cannot remarry a person who is divorced for reasons other than adultery or abandonment by a non believer. If you do, you are committing adultery. Separation is allowed, justice is allowed, remarriage is not allowed.

Amen.

This is insightful and helpful. Never heard it explained in this way

True

God absolutely allows permanent divorce/no reconciliation ever to happen for millions/billions/trillions of reasons. God (He)loves his Godly daughter. And Her Godly Family way more than the marriage. and I’m super thankful to God every day for mine :) And I have been 100% Completely Single for 10 years now:) And I’m in full time church ministry life at my church. and I absolutely absolutely absolutely absolutely love it so so so much:) And at the end of April 2024 I will be signing up for a couple of great Christian dating sites.

@@jilllingenfelter4682 What scripture says God allows that as grounds for a divorce????

Put Lisa on your podcast

@@tamimoncrief2264 I know you worship Joni but she is not perfect. She is a sinner like all of us and if you read the scriptures yourself you would see what God actually says about Divorce. If they are referring to ex-wife indirectly, let the full story be told. Let her speak.

They were couple friends for years and years. So when she acts like he was a man she barely knew afar off, she is being deceitful. I hope he repented about him being a serial cheater. And then him leaving her friend for her. God can forgive. But first you have to confess your sin.

Christians know the right thing to do because the Holy Spirit tells us we need no teacher, she knows what to do, but I agree we must confess our sins. I remember when Marcus repent on air for cheating on his wife and his heart was different about it, He willingly admit his wrong to the world, I think that takes bravery. But it’s differences of heart between the both of them, we are just seeing what’s in Joni right now.

Exactly

@@VSFTY Confess and repent. Joni and Doug are in great evil as Christian leaders in sin. This is AWFUL.

Not true covenant with God can't be broken

Praise Jesus! Someone who follows the Word of Jesus Christ. No one has to stay in an abusive marriage. It's called separation! Separate! It's that simple. If a divorce occurs, remarriage is only permitted if the spouse dies. Not being bound to the marriage is not permission to remarry. Joni was free to remarry. It is who she married is why she is living in adultery. Doug Weiss has a living wife. He is not free to remarry. Joni knew this woman. Who does that?????? Doug, Joni,and Jimmy Evans are making a mochary of the Word of Jesus Christ. I want to remarry; yet, I know it's not possible because I am divorced and my ex husband is still living. Wow, so simple. I guess we are only to follow Scripture until it's time to follow Scripture.

Wish I could get all my donations back from Daystar. SMH.

Exactly! That’s the truth! And that’s scripture 🙌

I don't know your whole situation but you keep saying you can't remarry what about people who didn't know God before their horrible mistakes of marriage what if Satan sent that person to you .what about every person people had sex outside of marriage isn't that like marriage in a ungodly way.hmmm im just thinking.

She was saying had the divorce not met the Biblical standards for a divorce it’s still not the unpardonable sin, but she is trying to help people understand that there are factors they are not privy to.

@shawig Well the question is did the reason for the Divorce meet the Biblical standard. God's word determines that and not a man telling you his opinion. And if the Divorce did not meet the Biblical standard and you remarried anyway, than Joni is saying it's okay to knowingly sin by entering into a marriage not sanctioned by God because it's not the unpardonable sin??? This is not Godly counsel.

Please be careful to investigate things Biblically. The Scripture grants divorce only on the basis of abandonment and adultery. Abuse and addiction are not biblical provisions for breaking covenants. That is not to say stay in bad environments. Separation is most definitely essential in such cases, especially abuse. Yet, no one is allowed to remarry unless the other person commits adultery or abandon the marriage. 1 Corinthians 7:12-17 and Matthew 19:9 is very important to remember.

Yes, thank you for sharing this. I read that too before myself.

Noone is allowed to remarry except adultery etc ir except the spouse dies?

*or

Exactly

Preach! Doug as after Joni. 6 mos after Marcus died, he called her. Plus. Joni said God told her to get her "house" in order. No, girl. You started losing weight bc you were attracted to Doug. They are both despicable liars.

Do you suppose that people who are divorced should not marry? Im not being confrontational, just asking a genuine question. And want to understand the justification for this thought.

@katinarandolph9264 yes, imo but not your friend's husband!

@catlady3147 ahhh. I see! I don't follow her, so I didn't know the full context. Unfortunately, I have seen this happen in my old church multiple times. SMH

1 Corinthians 7:12-17; Matthew 19:9

You would presume someone in a ministry serving our Lord God Almighty Jesus Christ would know the ways we are to go. With teaching it to others because of a position that the hold. Yet not everyone is in agreement, but let's not forget that we must live out the commands of Jesus if we are going to be teachers of His word... Jesus is the Head of every single person who follows His authority constantly.

Getting a divorce biblically is different from saying you are going to remarry when your spouse is still alive? Isn't that what the word said?

Adultry is a reason to leave .

Well stated, but unfortunately they'll continue with their deceitful timeline and individuals will accept it because she's Joni Lamb. Their adults and make their own choices, but they need to step down from national christian television.

@@joycemullane5337 They are in adultery and will not see heaven unless they repent.

Trust God. Jesus is the ONLY plumbline. We need to mature as Believers. If we quit trying to pick people apart but instead pick God's Word apart we wouldn't be so disappointed in man. Whatever they did or did not do that's between them and God. Truth be told, God can't trust none of us. Divorce may not be someone's burden, but perhaps a gossip, or prideful, or self righteous.

Exactly

What????

This here🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾I’ve been at this place for 23 years of marriage and I tell you it has cost me greatly as well.

See my comments above. Joni is in adultery and is not one to preach on this topic. She will not see heaven unless she repents and Doug repents! Consider your source! Joni have been in blatant sin for a few years now. It is awful.

So if your spouse had an addiction to child pornography would you stay? Since there is no "biblical reference"....just asking.

I didn’t pick up on them “leading others into another covenant”. Where did you hear that piece? Additionally, the covenant is with God to care for one of His children through the marrying relationship. It isn’t actually a covenant with the person, I mean by default yes, but the covenant is a promise to God to care for them and I just felt that was important to identify. I agree there is confusion with the scriptural evidence on divorcing and I agree sometime separation is necessary for individuals to allow God to work in their hearts more fully. I also agree that during the distance period the covenant with God should still be honored by caring for the heart of the other person by not entering into another romantic relationship. I just think you maybe heard a message that wasn’t actually said. It is no secret that The Body doesn’t do the best job at discipleship and accountability in this area because we are a bunch of broken people…. I think that was the point of their discussion. The Holy Spirit is at work in the body and there are marriages in which a spouse is damaging the other and may be refusing to respond to their convictions and in that case it may be necessary to exit that marriage ….. I’m still evaluating what wisdom I get from the scriptures on this, but at the same time- it is difficult to reconcile how God would desire one of His children to endure consistent and repetitive damage through relational abuse. Chances are in these situations there were red flags in the beginning and the spouse that is being abused ignored those red flags or perhaps were not following Jesus and so the marriage was outside God’s will in the first place. God can work it out for the good of those that love Him but if the spouse that needs healing refuses to respond to the Holy Spirit or is just outright disobedient… does the God we know say “I’m sorry my child but you made this promise to care for this person no matter what so you must continue to endure their mistreatment which dishonors me because of that promise. Trust me. I’ll make it as good as I can, but you must experience the consequences of your choice.” I am not convinced that is the God we serve- if that is the case then I wonder what the point of Jesus’ sacrifice was? This is just a discussion. As I said- I’m still trying to sort through this with Him.

Please read Romans 1-18. Meditate on it because we fail to realize that everybody does not belong to God. We all have been made in his image but not all have God’s spirit which is LIVING. Some people are married to or sleeping with the enemy. Jesus will reveal to you if a person is not for you thats why having a relationship with him is so important. Jesus Christ says I am the way, the TRUTH, and the LIFE. Some marriages can be saved but some are dead. We serve a God of the living not the dead. The bible also states in Matthew 7:15-23 that you will know them by their fruits. In order to understand scripture you need the infilling of the Holy Spirit to interpret what speaks to you. That is why I say it doesn’t apply to all marriages and you can best believe if you are a child of God and you run to him he will reveal truth to you. He usually does but we are so focused on what we want that we miss the red flags. God does not want his children with people they are not equally yolked with. (2 Corinthians 6:14). We must ask ourselves did this relationship come God or the adversary. I pray that this helps. 🙏🏽❤️

​@yvettegordon1202 Read 1 Corinthians 7 all of it...especially on being married to an unbeliever. Read, re-read, and meditate as the Lord tells us to do. Be well and be at peace.

Broad is the way that leads to destruction….narrow is the way that leads to life. Jesus doesn’t address many things topics in life head on without a parable, but marriage and divorce is one of the topics Jesus gives clear commands regarding-you may not divorce for any other reason apart from adultery.

He is still, to our knowledge, doing marriage ministry.

I would like to know where her only son and wife are at this present time. Does that not tell you something? Clearly, they are not happy with this marriage. I wonder how this makes you feel married a man over your own son. God is not dead. What you reap you will sow. I can not take it that these people interviewing her just tell her what she wants to hear. 😢😢

You have wearied him by asking, “Where is the God of justice?” ‭‭Matthew 19:1-12 NASB1995‬‬ [1] When Jesus had finished these words, He departed from Galilee and came into the region of Judea beyond the Jordan; [2] and large crowds followed Him, and He healed them there. [3] Some Pharisees came to Jesus, testing Him and asking, “Is it lawful for a man to divorce his wife for any reason at all?” [4] And He answered and said, “Have you not read that He who created them from the beginning made them male and female, [5] and said, ‘For this reason a man shall leave his father and mother and be joined to his wife, and the two shall become one flesh’? [6] So they are no longer two, but one flesh. What therefore God has joined together, let no man separate.” [7] They *said to Him, “Why then did Moses command to give her a certificate of divorce and send her away?” [8] He *said to them, “Because of your hardness of heart Moses permitted you to divorce your wives; but from the beginning it has not been this way. [9] And I say to you, whoever divorces his wife, except for immorality, and marries another woman commits adultery.” [10] The disciples *said to Him, “If the relationship of the man with his wife is like this, it is better not to marry.” [11] But He said to them, “Not all men can accept this statement, but only those to whom it has been given. [12] 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.” Be well and be at peace

I don't remember you being that beaming and happy with Marcus. I always felt some of your and Marcus' feelings toward each other were put on...strained. Forgive me if I am wrong...just saying... The eyes and expressions of the face say a lot. If you have really found true love, great! All is between you, Doug, and God...

You are correct in Joni twisting the Word of God , just like so many people who have married a divorced person, the Bible teaches if you're divorced and your covenant spouse is STILL ALIVE, you must not marry another person and only until the covenant spouse has died.

My soon-to-be ex died spiritually when he committed adultery, financially and verbally abused me, and abandoned me. It has been nearly 3 years since he left, and I have walked in obedience to God and honored the covenant that I made with Him on my wedding day. I will continue to do so until I marry again - with AbbaFather's blessing on our union. He has healed my heart, and I am His girl❤

We have to run to God not another relationship because it can turn into idolatry being led by familiar spirits.

True. And that husband divorce timing was suspect. He just divorced then just married her . Wow.

She was a recent widow and him a recent divorce. Why not wait? Something doesn’t add up or rather it does.

​@@rebeccaoprea9917Agree. In either situation a good counselor would advise you to take time to grieve the loss and give yourself time to heal.

There is no biblical definition of “abuse” as referred to in this discussion on divorce. If you are being physically abused than that is the legal definition definition of abuse and you should use the law to protect yourself. The Bible says the law is for the lawless. Emotional and mental abuse is something we can escape by separation from the spouse but not remarrying.

Amen

Amen

AAAMEN 🙏🏽

You took the words right out of my heart. I have been waiting on this for far too long!

People have took mistranslated texts to misapply a teaching that isn’t even consistent in the OT. Lol it’s amazing that people will put yokes on folks they wouldn’t be able to bear themselves. Divorce was used when in fact “putting away” is the correct term. How can you still be married to your first spouse when in the LAW OF DIVORCE, it was an abomination to go back to your first husband if you divorced your second husband. Also, God himself gave Israel a bill of divorce yet folks saying God hates divorce. Huh?!?!?!?! The math ain’t mathing

TRUE!

She is wrong

Exactly, she presents like they weren't years long friends

Naver was 😢

Don't blame. Dv usually one of first thoughts for divorce.

Why we began going to the church of scripture and relationship and left the infiltrated churches and their clicks behind. There's still great churches out there, they're just getting harder to find. Blessings to you

@@ElAZhe-Official huh?

So true it's opinion marriage is for life

Oooo that hit me so hard!

Hhm ....an example of sarah and her servant

I will search with lanterns in Jerusalem’s darkest corners to punish those who sit complacent in their sins. They think the LORD will do nothing to them, either good or bad. Zephaniah 1:12

Mr Doug you should have gone for deliverance ministry with your wife. Familiar spirits were working against your 1st marriage. This spirit of Leviathan tricked you both just like Adam and Eve. They listened to the lies of the serpent instead of believing Gods word. Get Apostle John Chi to deliver you.

His wife is Join's friend? A wheel within a wheel.

@@GOKBLACK6168they were all friends or at least friends or the ministry.

Marrying a person that God didn’t ordain an individual to be with is a sin as well. Many of those marriages do end and/or goes through lots of trouble.

@@KFontLab God is against divorce and it's a sin. We as people do things of the flesh and not in the spirit but sin is sin rather or not God ordained it or not when you marry you take a vow before the Lord and you in a convernat with your spouse and the Lord. Yes if you divorce and repent God will forgive you for your sin but divorce is still a sin. Another example is having sex before marriage is a sin, having children out of wedlock is a sin but our God still forgives and children are still born in the mist of the sin but the act was still a sin although the child is not.

@@AlthaHawkinsso do same sex couples take a vow before the Lord? Atheists? Hindus who are forced into arranged marriages?

False. Divorce is not a sin. Where in the Bible does it say that?

The Pharisees tried to pin Jesus down on this controversial question. But Jesus said,”What God has joined together, let not man separate separate” Matthew 19:6. He took a stricter position at either popular view, basically saying that divorce shouldn’t happen at all. The Pharisees thought they had trapped Jesus, because he was seemingly in conflict with Moses, who permitted divorce. Jesus responded, Moses, because of the hardness of your hearts, permitted you to divorce your wives, but from the beginning it was not so”(v8). Jesus taught that God’s ideal is that the two become one for life.

what if Yahweh gave you singleness?????

@@RoryRayOSullivan III HAVE ASKED FOR IT!

@@RoryRayOSullivan enjoy it, some are blessed with singleness!

Is anyone reading the Bible anymore?

@@riseagain9677 I do

Truth!!!! It needs to be shouted from the house top. GOD is able!

@@janetwatkins1316 I think she wanted this platform to defend divorcing your spouse, so as to defend Doug divorcing his spouse. I've been wanting to hear Lisa's side of the story for awhile now.

There is no biblical reason for divorce. We are to separate, remain single or reconcile. We are not to marry our friend's husband. Gross! Evil.

​@@spottidottie5849Agree, it seems she has been having several guests on Ministry Now lately justifying the timeline of their relationship and their marriage.

It is easy to justify divorce when uou have married a divorced husband! Let us stay with the Word og God!
