I need advice on what to say to my christian friend who knows the bible but wants to leave her husband.?

She knows what the bible says about divorce but she's sick of her marriage. She's coming up with all kinds of excuses why she can't take it any more. She's not being abused in any way, he is a good christian man as well. She left church and started dating an old flame. They have two kids and she's hurting them just like her mother hurt her. She's hard headed and can be cold hearted when she's afraid of being hurt. What biblical advice can I give her that will make her listen and realize she's being selfish. she also used to do drugs and this guy she's hanging with does drugs, so I'm afraid she's going back to that lifestyle. I'm the last one in church she's speaking to. Help. I've listened long enough I need to step up and say something profound.I need advice on what to say to my christian friend who knows the bible but wants to leave her husband.?
I went through something similar, and no one could tell me anything. I hope for her husband and her children's sake she turns around. Pray for her. There is so much power in prayer. The Lord doesn't want her to ruin her marriage. When you get married the 2 become 1 in the flesh. I wouldn't want to be the one standing before the Lord Almighty on judgment day explaining why I threw my family away. Maybe you should say that. If she hasn't completely quenched the Spirit, they may still have a chance. But it wont be easy, especially if she is back on drugs. Good Luck and God Bless. I'll keep you guys in my prayers!I need advice on what to say to my christian friend who knows the bible but wants to leave her husband.?
This one is not a simple matter and I would not presume to know what is right in this case. However, there are some forms of hurt that are not mended on earth and those marriages should not be continued. Hearts need love and purity, and without that you simply have two miserable people who pray for death. Do not worry about you saying something profound, just speak the truth of the matter, and let God handle the rest on His timetable.
your friend is huge idiot as well as anyone who follows the bible and looks it up for emotional advice on relationships in the 21th century! why does jesus care about anyone being in a dead end marriage where everyone is super unhappy??? if she doent love the guy, let her get a divorece , everyone will hurt more if they stay together!
One word, PRAY. She's choosing to do these things and she cannot be forced to turn back. But the Lord is more than able to touch and heal her heart and help her to overcome her problems. And it is the Lord alone who is able to convict her of her sin. So prayer is essential. She must have some deep wounds and only Jesus can heal them.
All you can truly do is pray for your friend. The Bible also teaches ( not that she cares) that a woman has no right to leave her husband. But since this is a non-Bible believing generation I doubt this will matter to her at all. Just keep praying to God that his will be done.
If she is cheating, the marriage is already over. She doesn't need an excuse.
Only she can change herself.
pray 4 her and her husband.

Pro 6:32 But the man who commits adultery is an utter fool, for he destroys his own soul.





Jer 23:14 But now I see that the prophets of Jerusalem are even worse! They commit adultery, and they love dishonesty. They encourage those who are doing evil instead of turning them away from their sins. These prophets are as wicked as the people of Sodom and Gomorrah once were.';





Eze 16:38 I will punish you for your murder and adultery. I will cover you with blood in my jealous fury.





Mat 5:32 But I say that a man who divorces his wife, unless she has been unfaithful, causes her to commit adultery. And anyone who marries a divorced woman commits adultery.





Mat 15:19 For from the heart come evil thoughts, murder, adultery, all other sexual immorality, theft, lying, and slander





Mat 19:18 ';Which ones?'; the man asked. And Jesus replied: '; `Do not murder. Do not commit adultery. Do not steal. Do not testify falsely.





Mar 7:21 For from within, out of a person's heart, come evil thoughts, sexual immorality, theft, murder,


Mar 7:22 adultery, greed, wickedness, deceit, eagerness for lustful pleasure, envy, slander, pride, and foolishness.


Mar 7:23 All these vile things come from within; they are what defile you and make you unacceptable to God.';





Mar 10:12 And if a woman divorces her husband and remarries, she commits adultery.';





Mar 10:19 But as for your question, you know the commandments: `Do not murder. Do not commit adultery. Do not steal. Do not testify falsely. Do not cheat. Honor your father and mother.'*





Luk 18:20 But as for your question, you know the commandments: `Do not commit adultery. Do not murder. Do not steal. Do not testify falsely. Honor your father and mother.'* ';





Rom 7:3 So while her husband is alive, she would be committing adultery if she married another man. But if her husband dies, she is free from that law and does not commit adultery when she remarries.





Rom 13:13 We should be decent and true in everything we do, so that everyone can approve of our behavior. Don't participate in wild parties and getting drunk, or in adultery and immoral living, or in fighting and jealousy.





Hbr 13:4 Give honor to marriage, and remain faithful to one another in marriage. God will surely judge people who are immoral and those who commit adultery.





2Pe 2:14 They commit adultery with their eyes, and their lust is never satisfied. They make a game of luring unstable people into sin. They train themselves to be greedy; they are doomed and cursed.
