Joelel if looking at porn is automatically adultery, and adultery is biblical grounds for divorce. Then every man who looks at porn, his wife has grounds for divorce without him actually taking any action?

I've read a study once that stated something like fornication is the physical sin while adultery is the emotional/heart sin. Jesus said no divorce except for fornication, which is the actual physical act itself.

Any thoughts?

I think if a spouse violates the exclusivity of the marriage bond by using his/her body and spirit with another (which is what someone using porn is doing), then, because of the close intimate bond between husband and wife, he/she violates the marriage through adultery.

Adultery is an act that contradicts a vow.
Fornication is the same act without the force of a vow being in operation.

I am so saddened by folks who teach Matt 5:32 as inspired by God and then seem to be able to ignore that the two words (fornication and adultery) are used to establish a contrast.

We go searching for loopholes, we find loopholes...imagine that.

If a person has relations with an other that is not their spouse they are comitting adultary and fornication,adultery because you are married and fornication because your having relations with someone your not married to.

That's right it is grounds for divorce.If we are joined to a harlot we are one. That makes both a harlot and if a person is married to a harlot that makes Jesus a harlot because we are also joined to Jesus. If a person is married to a harlot, you must divorce him or her unless the person repents and stays repented.

1 Cor.6:15: Know ye not that your bodies are the members of Christ? Shall I then take the members of Christ, and make them the members of a harlot? God forbid. 16: What? know ye not that he which is joined to an harlot is one body? for two, saith he, shall be one flesh.
17: But he that is joined unto the Lord is one spirit.
18: Flee fornication. (Adultery) Every sin that a man doeth is without the body; but he that commiteth fornication (adultery) sinneth against his own body.
19: What? know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost which is in you,
which ye have of God, and ye are not your own?
20: For ye are bought with a price: therefore glorify God in your body, and in your spirit, which are God's.
