Do soulmates exist? How do you know if someones your soulmate?
Wow, a lot of threads from September are popping back up today. I'm surprised this one did not get more replies. I agree with my husband that soul mates do not exist. I like your post, Link![]()
Do soulmates exist? How do you know if someones your soulmate?
I believe that "soulmates" are souls that God has joined together. They are essentially one being.
Matthew 19:6That being said, I believe that this union can be severed through sin. Severing soulmates is a serious sin in that it leaves two severely factured individuals.
Wherefore they are no more twain, but one flesh. What therefore God hath joined together, let not man put asunder.
Arranged marriages are not "soulmates" until God Himself has united their spirits in the bonds of love. Many marry out of convenience or for wealth, these too are not "soulmates" until God has joined them together.
If a man is joined to his wife by the LORD and she dies... the LORD may join him to another woman who will serve as his second wife. Both then have served as this man's "soulmate".
Should a partner commit the grevious sin of rending this union assunder through sin, the innocent party may be united to another by the LORD under certain grounds.
That's my understanding of "soulmates".
Two souls can't be joined together, that's not biblical.
My wife and I are one flesh. Not one soul. The flesh is very different from the soul.
Just because you love someone doesn't mean that your souls are somehow connected in some manner. It's romantic but you won't find a mention of it in scripture.
A soulmate is a person with whom one has a feeling of deep or natural affinity, similarity, love, sex, intimacy, sexuality, spirituality, or compatibility. Just a person with similar beliefs and feelings, nothing magical.
"Two souls can't be joined together, that's not biblical.

I agree with you, but what do you believe being one flesh means?
I often hear that people think it means you become on flesh... as in on the honeymoon your two bodies become on during sex. Not literally of course but you do bond on a sexual level. Then I also hear people say it means your two lives become one since you share everything together and do things together. United as stated above.I agree with you, but what do you believe being one flesh means?
