Jesus on Divorce, Part 2 | Mark 10:1-12 | The Gospel of Mark (Msg 44) | 7/30/2023

In today's passage, Mark 10: 1-12, we look for a second week at Jesus' discussion with the Pharisees and with his disciples about marriage and divorce. The Pharisees approach Jesus and test him with a question--"Is it lawful for a man to divorce his wife?" Jesus responds by circumventing the trap that the Pharisees were trying to set for him, and he immediately went to the heart of the issue and referred back to Genesis to look at God's original intent for marriage. In today's sermon, we see that God gave us marriage as an earthly illustration of His eternal relationship with us. Divorce destroys that incredibly important illustration. Thus, our greatest hope is to look to Christ, learn of Christ, apply the Gospel of holiness, grace and forgiveness, stay in the truth and stay with His people
