What Did Jesus Mean? (Part 4)

In this powerful conclusion to the series, Dr. Michael Youssef addresses one of Jesus’ most sobering teachings—on marriage, divorce, and the hardness of the human heart. Drawing from Matthew 19, Dr. Youssef refuses to water down the words of Christ or cater to cultural compromise. Instead, he upholds the authority of Scripture, declaring that marriage is a holy covenant ordained by God, not a contract of convenience. While Jesus permits divorce only in cases of persistent, unrepentant unfaithfulness, He never commands it. God’s design is lifelong union—and His heart is for healing and restoration. This episode calls every believer to repentance, to intercession, and to unwavering obedience to the Lordship of Christ.
