Almost every wedding ceremony we hear in church quotes the scripture in Genesis that says "whatever God has put together let no man put asunder".
It doesn't just say, "don't put marriages asunder"; God asks us not to "let" people put marriages asunder. And, yet, how can we stop them from doing so? Don't people have the freedom to end their marriages if they want to?
I think what the scripture is saying here is that we should not let our brothers and sisters end their marriages with our support and approval. That doesn't mean we should be mean, condemning, and judgmental. But, if we want to see our brothers and sisters in heaven, we need to get clear on some issues, and one of those is the sanctity of marriage.
