Divorce and remarriage

That's what I always believed about that verse, also infidelity sounds the same as immoral to me, is it different?

“Do not be deceived: Neither πόρνοι ( pornoi ) fornicators nor idolaters nor μοιχοὶ ( moichoi ) adulterers nor men who have sex with men. “ 1 Corinthians 6:9

Note different words are used to delineate the two.

It’s the difference between legitimate union, marriage and illegitimate union, fornication.

“I tell you that whoever divorces his wife, except for sexual immorality ( except in the case of a fornication relationship ), and marries another woman commits adultery." Matt 19:9

It’s not saying if your wife commits adultery you can divorce her and remarry.

As someone astutely pointed out, if a wife was caught in adultery, she would have been stoned to death rather summarily under the law of Moses, and the man would have been free to remarry anyway.

There were before this my reply, 666 views of this catholic topic, topic of the follower of the apostate Church of Rome. It is interesting to close the topic, because it is not the follower of the Beast who has something to teach to the believers, not only in this matter of the topic, but in all points of Scriptures. Why to discuss without end with un apostate Christian follower of the apostate church of Rome, ruled by the Beast of sea, a Gentile Beast, a stumblingblock?

You have a seriously unhealthy obsession mate. You really need to talk to someone.

Yes, I stand corrected. Fornication is anything knowing someone that is not honourable or its defiling the way God intended and adultery would be marrying/knowning somone when already have an spouse.

No need to go to the Greek.

The time is of HARVEST, the tares is and will be pulled out by the roots. The Devil will be cast down into the bottomless pit, and be shut up, and be set a seal upon him, that he should deceive the nations no more.
