Is pornography addiction grounds for divorce? Mike finds this intimidating given modern usage rates. His answer: pornography use IS sexual immorality (porneia), but not every instance should trigger divorce. Factors: scale, pattern, repentance, willingness to get help. A single failure vs an unrepentant lifestyle are very different situations. Mike recommends counseling before divorce in pornography cases.

Pornography falls under porneia (sexual immorality). But Mike distinguishes between: a one-time failure with genuine repentance vs. an unrepentant pattern/addiction. Factors: is the person getting help? Are they honest? Is there a pattern of deception? The wife is not REQUIRED to divorce — she has the RIGHT to if it reaches a threshold. Pastoral wisdom needed. The rates of pornography use mean blanket application would justify mass divorce.
