Rationale for the book.Marriage is under serious attack from the forces of evil and there is much deception in the world and sad to say this deception is coming even from the pulpit. The idea that God does not want you to suffer and will understand your decision to divorce your spouse is not scriptural and can have eternal consequences for those who do this. If you do not forgive that spouse you are about to divorce, neither will your Heavenly Father forgive your decision to divorce. Even if you have already been divorced and remarried, giving forgiveness to those who hurt you is a prerequisite for receiving forgiveness from God for your sins. God has set forth clear instructions on marriage and what he expects from such a union, but what has happened is that we have taken God's grace and mercy as excuses to create a God who sits in heaven just handing out forgiveness and blessings to us as we continually live in disobedience to His word while at the same time expecting Him to pour out financial and other rewards to us. God used the prophet Hosea to demonstrate to us that He hurts as we go "a whoring" from Him as we go after our gods whether in the form of wealth, sex or any of the many other gods we place before Him. Don't forget that another name for Jehovah is Jealous and He is a jealous God.
