Matthew 5:27-37
Kingdom living means we are ruthless to our selfishness and resolute to obey God’s Word.
Because we see the evil of Adultery flows from our greedy evil heart condition

Because we see the tragedy of Divorce as it flows from someone’s selfishness
A tragedy because
- we fail to reflect God’s image
- we create more chaos
- we negatively impact others
Someone’s selfishness because
- created and allowed offenses to build up to break up
- quit on vows to God and spouse
This is why Scripture says God hates divorce, because of the tragedy of it.
But God has always made provision for divorce when the marriage is broken.
