    You seem to equate being born again means reaching a state of sinless perfection, and so none of us here posting would get saved!
    Is divorce and remarriage a sin that God cannot forgive e?

    Being Born Again is not sinless perfection. It is eternal life in the spirit. But the flesh (soul/mind) needs renewed through the washing of the word. Sin unrepented of remains unforgiven. But God's elect always overcome sin.

    The Ten Commandments were the Old Covenant. He abolished it replacing it with the New.

    God does not recognize human divorce laws. So all divorce is unforgiveness on the part of the one who undertakes it. And any remarriage is adultery. "Let not man put asunder" = once married it is for life.

    say the couple did have what would be termed not a biblical divorce/remarriage, but both of them repent/confessed to God their sinfulness, and sought God to bless the new marriage. Will God honor their request?

    the blood of jesus cleansed ALL sins that we would ever do, so this involves our fellowship with God, bit not our relationship, as that was eternal secured!

    So the blood of Jesus would not be able to cleanse even that sin, correct?

    Can you expect forgiveness if you do not repent?

    This is true of the elect. But the elect will repent from their sins.

    Yes, as we are enertally justified by the Cross of Christ, but does not mean that God will not "spank" us!

    Repenting/confessing of know sins involves our fellowship, not out relationship with God!

    You do not have a relationship with God if you do not repent of sin. You only think you do.

    If you are his elect, you will overcome sin.

    Strange that there is NO scriptures that support that we must repent to either get or keep saved though!

    Not fully in this life though, as we still have that old sin principle/sin nature still alive in us here!

    But excuses are not an excuse for sin. If you walk in the Spirit, you will not fulfill the lusts of the flesh.
