What only does Christ recognize as proper ground for dissolving the marriage relationship?

Answer

"Whosoever shall put away his wife, except it be for fornication, and shall marry another, committeth
adultery." Matt. 19: 9.
NOTE - Civil laws recognize other reasons as justifiable causes for separation, such as extreme
cruelty, habitual drunkenness, or other like gross offences; but only one offence, according to Christ,
warrants the complete annulment of the marriage tie.
THERE is a bliss beyond all that the minstrel has told,
When two that are linked in one heavenly tie,
With heart never changing and brow never cold,
Love on through all ills, and love on till they die.
-Moore.
