Yet, my wife uses the "But, Jesus wants us to be happy" straw argument to defend what she did. My response: Find for me in the Word where Jesus said it is OK to divorce if that makes you happy.

Find anywhere in the Bible where it says G-d wants us to be happy.

G-d wants us to be Holy.

I don't mean to imply that G-d wants us to be miserable. But G-d knows that the surest way to become miserable is to become overly focused on being happy.

Shalom.

Thanks for you post....

Jesus said, "Why do you call me Lord and do not keep all that I have commanded you?"

How can someone claim that in order to be happy they must do something that is the opposite of what He commanded?
