Are Soulmates and Soul Ties Biblical?

If defined as God has one person in the world perfectly fitted for you then no.

Mark 10:7-9 (ESV)
7 ‘Therefore a man shall leave his father and mother and hold fast to his wife, 8 and the two shall become one flesh.’ So they are no longer two but one flesh. 9 What therefore God has joined together, let not man separate."

If defined as once married, they become your soulmate, then yes.

Are Soul Ties Biblical through acts of the flesh?

To be one flesh is both a physical, mental, and spiritual act. But not in the sense of a mystical binding.

If you divorce out of non-biblical allowances then it is a sin just as any other sin that Jesus died for. The only thing tying you to the bondage of sin is your mind. Your unwillingness to accept Jesus's forgiveness.

What of sexual immorality?

1 Corinthians 6:16 mentions adultery or fornication but again although sinful, you are set free in Christ from condemnation.

✝️Repent and live in His grace, forgiveness, and stop with the lists of works that you must do to break the so-called soul ties. ✝️

The only thing connecting you to others is your guilt and refusal to accept forgiveness. Give it over to God, and turn to sanctification (living how God intended us to live).

What of a vow?

Numbers 30:2
New International Version
2 When a man makes a vow to the Lord or takes an oath to obligate himself by a pledge, he must not break his word but must do everything he said.

A marriage covenant done with God (this excludes marriages that do not include God.) A vow broken again doesn't tie you but the opposite of being tied is to be broken/untied. Still a sin to break your marriage vow under the New Testament guidance but not binding as Numbers 30:2 was under the Mosiac law.

Another reason one flesh isn't soul-binding because the Greek doesn't give that meaning to the word.

In Greek: sarx
Definition: Flesh
Meaning: flesh, body, human nature, materiality; kindred.

A kindred spirit. Physically shared, mentally agreed, and spiritually united on Christ.

Let nothing separate what Father, son have joined together. If it is not to be and is being and then I see to trust God while in it, whether one separates or not
Nevertheless your will Father not mine
married now over 40 years, joined by God, between her and I, and we did divorce one time, yet never separated and remarried according to this world's laws
And we are free to be whom we are accordingly to God all in all
Thanks for the information on the subject in Spirit and Truth

Thank you. Mankind can easily complicate what God made simple.

Yep, it broke David's heart when Jonathan died.

I would say soul mates are in the Song of Songs / Song of Solomon.
There are deep connections here on earth between others, yet both and all keep Father and Son as Won for them to be new in
Being taught new daily and not thinking I got it, I. see and now know better than, to ever think I got it, undermining the done work of Son for us all to be new in the born new life given from Father
John 4:23-24 thanks

Wow, another good thought provoking thread. This is awesome.

God created Adam and then He created Eve whom He chose for Adam.

I believe, especially now, after living life and going through the trials and tribulations that if someone finds the person that God has intended for them and they are truly equally yoked life would definitely be much simpler than it is from choosing partners based off of sexual appeal, looks, and other worldly attributes.

Don't get me wrong, if the Union of man and woman is ordained by God then they will be attracted, in love, have sexual appeal, be beautiful\handsome to one another.

I know for myself and speaking only for myself here, I wished I had waited for God to intervene and arrange who I should have married. Life I believe would have been less stressful and less heart breaking.

whatever does not kill only gets one to become stronger in being willing to learn from mistakes made
We all go through the Earth fire, to if willing grow hinds feet
And yes to what Daddy join s together no person can ever separate that is a fact from God to each of his kids personally
And finding having your soulmate
Let's be realistic, fights arguments and stupid things will occur, yet will we last through them and let them pass and continue forward, not bringing up the past mistakes made?
Thanks Greg post from you friend in risen Son
