1 Corinthians 7:10,11: “Now to the married I command, yet not I but the Lord: A wife is not to depart from her husband. But even if she does depart, let her remain unmarried or be reconciled to her husband. And a husband is not to divorce his wife.”
Even though the SCOTUS ruling by the Supreme Court of the United States now considers homosexual "marriages" as legal as of June 2015, they are not recognized as true marriages in the eyes of God. God defined marriage as between one male and one female for life (Genesis 2:22-24) from the beginning of creation.

Yes, but it is based on certain conditions stipulated by God. God is willing to forgive any sin of which one is willing to repent (Luke 17:3; Acts 8:22; 17:30; 1 John 1:9). In these types of sinful relationships, God states that these relationships must cease to exist.

As we continue to see a more “progressive” (more accurately “digressive”) society that is against the values and ethics of the Scriptures, we continue to see a society that promotes and propagates that which God opposes, such as unscriptural divorces (Matthew 19:6). There are many people who celebrate divorces as if it is a good thing. Below are some scriptural reasons why should we have an attitude that is against divorce.

The Bible teaches that physical death ends a scriptural marriage (Romans 7:1-4; 1 Corinthians 7:39; note: these passages imply that both parties remained in the scriptural marriage when one of the spouses died).

We must speak as the oracles/utterances of God (1 Peter 4:11). This man-made phrase “married in the eyes of God” is a foreign idea to the Scriptures. The Bible makes a distinction between being “bound” (Romans 7:1-4; 1 Corinthians 7:39,40) and being “married.” The wife is not "still married in the eyes of God" when she divorces her husband. She is unmarried as 1 Corinthians 7:11 states, “let her remain unmarried”. She is still bound to her spouse though (Romans 7:1-4).

The doctrine(s) concerning marriage, divorce, and remarriage is part of the doctrine of Christ (Matthew 5:32; 19:3-12; 1 Corinthians 7:10-11; 2 John 1:9-11). Evangelists are obligated to preach the word/doctrine of Christ, including the doctrines that are “out of season” (2 Timothy 4:2-5). To preach no doctrine on marriage, divorce and remarriage or to teach another doctrine other than what Jesus taught concerning marriage, divorce and remarriage is forbidden by God (Galatians 1:6-9). Just as those who live in unions of fornication, homosexuality or polygamy must be warned to repent of their unlawful, ungodly unions, so also those who live in adulterous unions must be warned (1 Corinthians 6:9-11; Colossians 3:5; Matthew 5:31,32; 19:9).
