That's like claiming the government is in the business of fixing us instead of protecting us.
Are you liberal at heart?

I wonder how many husbands let a spirit of jealousy come over them, instead of forgiving their wives?
Numbers 5:12 Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, If any man's wife go aside, and commit a trespass against him, 13 And a man lie with her carnally, and it be hid from the eyes of her husband, and be kept close, and she be defiled, and there be no witness against her, neither she be taken with the manner; 14 And the spirit of jealousy come upon him, and he be jealous of his wife, and she be defiled: or if the spirit of jealousy come upon him, and he be jealous of his wife, and she be not defiled:
15 Then shall the man bring his wife unto the priest, and he shall bring her offering for her, the tenth part of an ephah of barley meal; he shall pour no oil upon it, nor put frankincense thereon; for it is an offering of jealousy, an offering of memorial, bringing iniquity to remembrance.

That is a problem that should be solved at home....without any government intervention.

one of the purposes of law is to guide behavior, to communicate societal norms and acceptable values
good law (Godly law) communicates Godly societal norms and values
bad law (man's law) communicates unGodly values, values such as killing your child is ok, sexual perversion is ok
let's talk a bit about your belief that government is in the business of "protecting us" - you've used that often lately - what exactly do you mean by it?

Should government intervene in a marriage with spousal abuse?

Ah, you're looking for a Nanny State. Gotcha. :thumb:
Common defence against terrors foreign and domestic.
The Government is to protect us from attacks from abroad, and protect us from our own citizens within. Government 101

Protecting it's citizens is the role of government. So yes.
I'm pretty sure a spouse is a citizen - well most of them are.

No more than are a result of alcohol and drug use, I can assure you.
It's not the government's job to keep people happy, or protect people from themselves, and their own bad decisions.
That would require we set up that Nanny State you want.

Seems to me that you two (groups) are actually talking past each other.
I think that you agree on more than you disagree.
Just my two cents (before inflation).

you're willing to judge the world when it commits murder, rape, child molestation, spousal abuse
but you're unwilling to judge the world when it commits adultery and homosexuality

His most successful ploy is putting a question mark after what he says.
Makes him look innocent, I guess.
Gotta love the dose. That way you can kick him to the curb while assuring him you care.

Actually, now that you mention it, He did.
He even fed them manna from heaven so they wouldn't have to work.
Notice, He didn't tell Paul to put the Gentiles under the same.
