A Christian is defined in the Bible as a disciple or follower of Christ.

(John 12:26) “If any man serve me, let him follow me; and where I am, there shall
also my servant be: if any man serve me, him will my Father honour”

Further, a true disciple is someone who continues in Christ’s words.

(John 8:31) “Then said Jesus to those Jews which believed on him, If ye continue
in my word, then are ye my disciples indeed…”

Watched or alone, a true disciple continues to follow the ‘word’.

(Philippians 2:12) “Wherefore, my beloved, as ye have always obeyed, not as in


my presence only, but now much more in my absence, work out your own
salvation with fear and trembling.”

A Christian couple is
admonished by God to live
under God’s law ‘until death do
them part’.

(Romans 7:2) “For the woman


which hath an husband is
bound by the law to her
husband so long as he liveth;
but if the husband be dead,
she is loosed from the law of
her husband.”

The preceding verse is a very


equitable and sensible law coming from a wise Lawmaker that knows the caprices
of man’s flesh. Whosoever will say that He is imaginary, is indecent, vulgarly lewd,
and deprived of normal and common sense. Whosoever will say that God is
imaginary because somebody did not obey His sensible laws is senseless, numb, and
void of reasons.

A Christian couple is commanded to keep marriage undefiled.

(Hebrews 13:4) “Let marriage be held in honor among all, and let the marriage
bed be undefiled; for God will judge the immoral and adulterous.” RSV

True Christians do not intentionally divorce their partner.

(1 Corinthians 7:10-11) “And unto the married I command, yet not I, but the
Lord, Let not the wife depart from her husband: But and if she depart, let her
remain unmarried, or be reconciled to her husband: and let not the husband put
away his wife.”

(Matthew 19:9) “And I say unto you, Whosoever shall put away his wife, except it
be for fornication, and shall marry another, committeth adultery: and whoso
marrieth her which is put away doth commit adultery.”

(Matthew 5:32) “But I say unto you, That whosoever shall put away his wife,
saving for the cause of fornication, causeth her to commit adultery: and
whosoever shall marry her that is divorced committeth adultery.”

It is clear that the Almighty God teaches Christians to live a responsible moral life.
It is not God’s fault if somebody given the free will (because we were not created
robots like these imaginary people) disobeys God’s sensible laws. Granting, without
conceding, that the rate of Christian divorce is the same as non-Christians who do
not believe in God, it does not mean that God is imaginary. This is not a rational
way of thinking and analyzing things. Does your being an atheist made you a better
person than a Christian? Tell that to the marines! My God tells me otherwise.

(Psalms 53:1) “…The fool hath said in his heart, there is no God. Corrupt are
they, and have done abominable iniquity: there is none that doeth good.”

Belief in the Almighty God of the Bible have created innumerable law abiding,
responsible, peace-loving and compassionate citizens of the world. Unbelief thereof
has produced ‘monsters’ like Hitler. I firmly believe that real Christians will not
divorce their partners. The statistics that these imaginary people have used to malign
the Christian God was not conducted among true Christians!
I have been a minister of the
gospel in the Church of God for
more than 30 years, and the
divorce that I have known and
witnessed among our peers
does not even account to one
percent of all the marriages
performed in the Church.

Let me tell you something:


There are many professing
Christians, but not real
Christians!

(Titus 1:16) “They profess that


they know God; but in works they deny him, being abominable, and disobedient,
and unto every good work reprobate.”

A wise and an educated person looks at statistics with wisdom, prudence, and
reservation. Maybe the reason why atheists’ rate of divorce is lower than alleged
Christians’ rate of divorce is that if a Christian’s partner is found to be an infidel,
you have to put her away!

(1 Corinthians 5:11-13) “But rather I wrote to you not to associate with any one
who bears the name of brother if he is guilty of immorality or greed, or is an
idolater, reviler, drunkard, or robber — not even to eat with such a one. For what
have I to do with judging outsiders? Is it not those inside the church whom you
are to judge? God judges those outside. “Drive out the wicked person from among
you.”

Perhaps, for atheists, like these imaginary people, you can just let your partners go
unfaithful, and stomach the immoral acts of you both: After all, there is no God that
disciplines your actions.

I do not want to deprive my readers of one important truth! When God said that,
“…whatsoever God has joined together, let not man put asunder” (Matthew 19:6),
it does not only mention of the relationships of a husband and a wife. There is even
a greater mystery in this, that God wants us to understand.

(Ephesians 5:29-32) “For no man ever yet hated his own flesh; but nourisheth
and cherisheth it, even as the Lord the church: For we are members of his body,
of his flesh, and of his bones. For this cause shall a man leave his father and
mother, and shall be joined unto his wife, and they two shall be one flesh. This is
a great mystery: but I speak concerning Christ and the church.”

Christ and the true Church are inseparable by God’s will!


Do you want to study statistics? Divorce? Learn it from a reliable source. There is
no circumstance that will separate the Church from Christ!

(Romans 8:35, 37-39) “Who shall


separate us from the love of Christ? Shall
tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or
famine, or nakedness, or peril, or
sword?”

“…Nay, in all these things we are more


than conquerors through him that loved
us. For I am persuaded, that neither
death, nor life, nor angels, nor
principalities, nor powers, nor things
present, nor things to come, Nor height,
nor depth, nor any other creature, shall
be able to separate us from the love of
God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.”

Not even the 10 idiotically invalid


questions of these imaginary people can
separate me from my God!

It does make sense, doesn’t it?

God Bless,
