When Christ divorces we may....…if Christ ever abandons and
discards his church, then a man may divorce his wife. And if the blood-bought church, under the new
covenant, ever ceases to be the bride of Christ, then a wife may legitimately
divorce her husband. But as long as
Christ keeps his covenant with the church, and as long as the church, by the
omnipotent grace of God, remains the chosen people of Christ, then the very
meaning of marriage will include: What God has joined, only God can separate.
John Piper
