"Whatsoever we ask, we receive of him, because we keep his commandments, and do those things which are pleasing in his sight."
1J 3
{Edited from a conversation about the extreme exceptions in which divorce is biblically justifiable.}
If both spouses are unbelievers, children of Satan, then if one commits even one of the greatest crimes, however great the punishment may be, this would not have an effect on the covenant they made to each other. If the woman directly broke the covenant itself, such as by having sex with another man, only then would the man, though also an infidel, be justified in putting her away.
If one of them is a believer, then "what part hath he that believeth with an infidel" comes into play. Even so, Paul counsels that it is usually best to remain together - but if the unbelieving depart, let him depart (1Cor 7).
If a person claims to be a believer, actions that would prove them otherwise would be what John terms "sins unto death", such as murder, idolatry, and, again, adultery.
I would add that if someone is dangerous, then the obvious necessity getting away from them is a separate discussion, not an excuse for breaking covenants.

The Messiah wasn’t a Torah breaker. He was a walking example!

Who believes in being baptized more than once? Why?
The disciples taught the gentiles to be circumcised and keep the law.
Acts 16: 3 Paul wanted to take this man with him and he took and circumcised him, because all the Jews in that place knew that his father was an Aramaean.
4 As they were going among the cities preaching, they were also teaching them to keep those commandments that the Apostles and Elders who were in Jerusalem had written;
Acts 21: 20 And when they had heard, they praised God and said to him: "You see our brother, how many tens of thousands are in Judea who have believed, and they are all zealous of The Law."
21 But it has been told them that you teach all the Jews who are among the Gentiles to separate from Moses while you say that they should not circumcise their sons and that they should not walk by the custom of The Law.
