Marriage Covenants Are Conditional

The following is taken from:

"For better or for worse" is a commitment by the marriage partners to rise-up together against those situations that would threaten the marriage covenant relationship from outside the marriage.

Many are bound in bad marriages and/or guilt because of misapplying this part of the marriage vow to violations that come from within the marriage covenant instead of it's rightful application to attacks that come from outside the marriage covenant relationship.

Mistakenly applying this part of the marriage vow to attacks that come from within the marriage relationship automatically turns the marriage covenant into an indissolvable, unbreakable, unconditional covenant (a covenant without conditions - anything goes). Meaning, you have to stay married to that person no matter what abuses or violations they have committed against you in the relationship. Not even God makes unbreakable unconditional covenants with sinful man. Yet, we have accepted this mistaken application as truth thereby believing that a marriage covenant with two sinful people is supposed to be "unconditional" - without any conditions.
