You asked:"...do you think the Lord requires someone in such a situation to remain married to a person in a vegetative state for years?"
Matthew 19:6 says: "Wherefore they are no more twain, but one flesh. What therefore God hath joined together, let not man put asunder."
Mark 10:11,12 says:" And he saith unto them, Whosoever shall put away his wife, and marry another, committeth adultery against her. And if a woman shall put away her husband, and be married to another, she committeth adultery."
Romans 7:2,3 says: "For the woman which hath an husband is bound by the law to her husband so long as he liveth; but if the husband be dead, she is loosed from the law of her husband.
3 So then if, while her husband liveth, she be married to another man, she shall be called an adulteress: but if her husband be dead, she is free from that law; so that she is no adulteress, though she be married to another man."
I Cor.7:10,11 says:"And unto the married I command, yet not I, but the Lord, Let not the wife depart from her husband: But and if she depart, let her remain unmarried, or be reconciled to her husband: and let not the husband put away his wife."
I Cor.10:13 says:"There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it."
Your brother in Christ, Bruce
