It is distressing that the divorce rate among professing Christians is nearly as high as in non-Christian world . The Bible makes it abundantly clear that God hates divorce and that reconciliation and forgiveness should be the marks of a believer’s life . A believer divorced and / or remarried should not feel any less loved by offering God , even if the divorce and / or remarriage is not justified by the possible motivation of Matthew . God often uses the sinful disobedience of Christians in positive purposes .
