This is Jesus` sharp response to a trick question about divorce from religious lawyers. What does Jesus say is God`s role in a marriage? What motivation to stay together might Jesus offer a struggling couple?
Jesus say about marriage in gods role a man will leave his parents and will join to his wife and both of them will become one flesh, and the motivation to stay together for the struggling couples that lord jesus christ is the center of every couple, the god must be always in thier hearts even in time of troubles and sufferings, god is love and god is life donot surrender oneselfs or bothselves to any problems, for the sake of the family, god must be the center and its forbiden.

God`s role was that he made man and woman in the beginning as one God instituted marriage a great unifying blessing bonding the male and female in his creation. Therefore what God has joined together, Jesus grounds the sanctity of marriage in the authority of God himself. No to divorce sefeguards against human selfishness, which always threatens to destroy marriage. For struggling couple, prayers can be of help.

He arose from there and came into the borders of Judea and beyond the Jordan. Multitudes came together to him again. As he usually did, he was again teaching them. Pharisees came to him testing him, and asked him, "Is it lawful for a man to divorce his wife?"
He answered, "What did Moses command you?" They said, "Moses allowed a certificate of divorce to be written, and to divorce her."
But Jesus said to them, "For your hardness of heart, he wrote you this commandment. But from the beginning of the creation, God made them male and female. For this cause a man will leave his father and mother, and will join to his wife, and the two will become one flesh, so that they are no longer two, but one flesh. What therefore God has joined together, let no man separate." In the house, his disciples asked him again about the same matter. He said to them, "Whoever divorces his wife, and marries another, commits adultery against her. If a woman herself divorces her husband, and marries another, she commits adultery."
