Does God allow Divorce Today?

[Yeshua1]

Born Again Christians always overcome sin. If you see anyone living in sin who professed Christ, you might question their salvation. 3/4 of the converts in the parable of the sower were false believers.

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?

 

[Yeshua1]

But, divorce is not an option for Christians who must forgive so they can be forgiven. And Christ abolished the Law (divorce included) on the cross. There is no such thing as divorce in God's sight. Divorce is man made fiction.

So is saying that the blood of jesus cannot cleanse even those who do such things!

Not unless we repent.

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.

 

[1689Dave]

Jesus fulfilled the law, not abolish it!

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

 

[1689Dave]

So the blood of jesus is not sufficient to cleanse the sin of marrying another with biblical basis? That God can never see that remarriage as being valid, and can no longer bless them if they seek his forgivenes and grace?

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.

 

[Yeshua1]

Not unless we repent.

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.

 

[Yeshua1]

Can you expect forgiveness if you do not repent?

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

 

[Yeshua1]

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

Only death breaks the marriage bond.

Repentance precedes forgiveness.

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

 

[1689Dave]

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

If you are his elect, you will overcome sin.

 

[Yeshua1]

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

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

 

[Yeshua1]

If you are his elect, you will overcome sin.

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.
