Featured Divorce and Remarriage before Salvation

No, I understand EXACTLY what you're saying. You think that because they have "moved on" and are having sex in the new relationships that they now meet the standard of adultery and it's okay to not go back to the original marriage since they've both technically committed adultery.

The answer is still no. There are no loopholes.

They were never divorced and doing that which BIBLICALLY okays a divorce under the wrong pretenses does not then grant a BIBLICAL divorce.

They are still married and are now committing adultery every time they have sex with these new "spouses".

Be well.

 

Stop smelling yourself. Are you a follower of Jesus Christ? Your sins are forgiven.

Is the original spouse of the divorced woman still alive? Did she divorce him for the allowed Biblical reasons? If she did, she's free to remarry.

Again, stop smelling yourself so that you can build up to trying to make a point. I haven't said anything about anyone "not being allowed to be saved or never having been saved or losing salvation". So if you're gonna pull me into your little rant, pull me in for something I said.

man, I don't even have the will power to further address you and this foolishness over something I HAVE NOT said.

 

And THIS is completely unBIBLICAL.

This is shameful. For as serious as abuse is, it IS NOT a God-given BIBLICAL reason for divorce and for the Church of Jesus Christ to be counseling folks to do so is untenable.

But as I've said many times, the world is in the state it is because of CHRISTIAN disobedience not because of the disobedience of the lost. For it is those who say they are in the Body of Christ who continue to unrepentantly sin like this while refusing to even acknowledge the sin as sin.

 

Don't play dumb. You can read. If I had made the statement you are now implying that I made, quote it.

The interesting thing is that you're now taking to telling lies to personally attack me because of what I DID say vs what you imply that I say.

 

So again, stop trying to justify your lying. Reading comprehension works wonders. You're one of the last people I expected to pull something like this.

The sentences you reference were written together in the same paragraph for good reason.

 

If it's not against board rules, it should be against rules to post links to things that contradict what the word of God says. It might go against your sensibilities and your feelings, but at no point in Scripture is abuse presented as a justified reason for divorce.

They can separate or one of them move to the other side of the world. But it is not a SCRIPTURAL reason for divorce no matter how many articles say so.

 

Not sure what this was for.

Absolutely.

No, you're not reading that correctly.

He doesn't have to do anything he doesn't want to. But if he didn't divorce her for a BIBLICALLY approved reason, he's still married to her. However you seem to be saying she's an unbeliever who may have chosen to leave. THAT is actually covered in Scripture.

 

And you're full of it if you think I have. You haven't been on here much. But I can assure you that if Iwant to question someone's salvation, I don't have a aproblem typing that for public consumption and dealing with the accompanying consequences.Wink

You're beyond an ignorant puppy if you think for a minute that I have to ride anyone's coattails. So get more than your feet wet before you start coming at me sideways about something you're VERY OBVIOUSLY wrong about.

You seem to know everything about me. Figure it out.

Your mouth is closer to your nose than I am. Let me suggest you start there if you're smelling something.

You sound like you may have some spine problems too.

Maybe you need to get your eyes checked with your spine and stomach?Thumbsup

 

Is that a selfie? We're gonna have to chip in and get you a makeover and a new computer.Thumbsup

 

Yeah, it really is past ridiculous how some of you seem to think that any reason that you dream up to be bad enough is just cause for divorce.

It frankly sounds a lot like the world's reasoning when it comes to divorce. I don't know how many times I've heard folks say
"I fell out of love."
"We argue too much."
"We just married too young."

NONE of those nor abuse is BIBLICAL justification for divorce,

False teaching. You can try to equate the two all you want. God defines what adultery is. And neither you, ,the President, the Pope or any of his Cardinals can change that.

You can think it is as cruel as you like too. Homosexuals think its cruel of Christians to suggest that they go through their entire lives without having love or sex because they want it from the same sex.

Neither the abused spouse or the homosexual can change Scripture.

And I say again, that you or ANY Christian would put forth that any case of abuse that's strictly abuse is grounds for a divorce, is shameful.

It's 100% unBIBLICAL and embarrassing how much yall are sounding like the world.

Separate and move across country. Change your identity. But you DO NOT have God's permission to divorce because of spousal abuse.

God PLEASE protect the minds and sensibilities of anyone who ventures through these pages and reads these attempts to undermine the truth of YOUR word.

Again, this is what the world does. Either we're gonna trust that an OMNISCIENT God knows best or we don't. Articles or anything else pushing people to do anything outside of what God commands is the equivalent of false teaching .

Again, spoken just like the world. It's coming off as patronizing and condescending because the two of you seem to be expecting some sort of pat on the back for your deliberate attempts to undermine the truth of what God's word says.

I wasn't talking down to anyone. I was telling you all what God's word says and not backing off of that. People always tend to think you're talking down to them when you don't make room for untruth.

I've been quite polite. But there still is no room for either of you to try and justify something as a reason for divorce that GOD has not said is a reason.

Your frustration is coming from the fact that I'm not accepting something you want to justify. Like the homosexual and the atheist and the Big Bang Theory Evolutionists, you'll just have to be frustrated.

But if I see it, don't expect to be able to add anything to Scripture that God has not said. If He had intended to make spousal abuse or alcoholism or financial incompetence a reason to get divorced, HE would have. He didn't.

You still be well.
