The Divorce Evil and ito Remedy

The Divorce Evil and ito Remedy.
The American people today are IA
cling one Of the greatest foes Of mod
ern civilization. the divorce evil. The
clergy is holding up its hands in horror
at the condition Of affairs in the mate
rial relations between husbands and
wives. The courts are perplexed as to
which method to adopt to eurtail this
evil, The lawmakers are spending
much Of their time in trying to find
SOME method by which it can be check
ed. These men are honest in their con-
viction that something must be done,
but they seem to be at . loss as to what
should be done. II they would turn to
the scriptures and read what Christ
said concerning this, and make laws to
conform to his teachings. and ,hese
laws rigidly enforced, it could Re great
ly reduced. There should be no divorce
except for reasons Get forth in the
scriptures. Christ on one occasion,
when asked concerning the divorce law.
by the Jews, set forth the reasons for
divorce in these words: Matt. 1919;
Whosoever shsll put away his wife, ex-
cept It be for farnication and shall mar
~ another. committeth adultery. And
y hoso marrieth her that 10 put away,
doth commit adultery. The reason ID
very plainly set forth in this passage
of scripture, but we are more resdy
and willing 70 accept the precept, %
given BY Moses: Dent. PAL. When q
man hath taken = wife, and Il come to
pass that ,she find No favor II Bic eyes
because he hath found some cleanliness
in her, let him write her bill Of diver
ement and give it in her hand and send
her out Of his heuse; and vixen she Is
departed out Of his house, she may 60
and be another mans wife.
Under the laws of Moses the Jews
could divorce their wives for many
causes, but Christ being the end of the
law, gave onl one reason for divorce.
