How to be a spiritual leader of the home

The text says you cannot get divorced so of course it won't speak to you getting remarried. But you KNOW there are other verses in the Bible that speak to remarriage - and that it is wrong for a believer.
I would start by taking another look at "the way of the master"
11 And he saith unto them, Whosoever shall put away his wife, and marry another, committeth adultery against her.
12 And if a woman shall put away her husband, and be married to another, she committeth adultery.
19 Thou knowest the commandments, Do not commit adultery, Do not kill, Do not steal, Do not bear false witness, Defraud not, Honour thy father and mother.
I would say....commiting ADULTERY would not be leading any family, unless it was leading them to Hell.
9 Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind,
Romans 7King James Version (KJV)
7 Know ye not, brethren, (for I speak to them that know the law,) how that the law hath dominion over a man as long as he liveth?
2 For the woman which hath an husband is bound by the law to her husband so long as he liveth; but if the husband be dead, she is loosed from the law of her husband.
3 So then if, while her husband liveth, she be married to another man, she shall be called an adulteress: but if her husband be dead, she is free from that law; so that she is no adulteress, though she be married to another man.
No you are not according to the Master
3 And Pharisees came up to him and tested him by asking, “Is it lawful to divorce one's wife for any cause?”4 He answered,“Have you not read that he who created them from the beginning made them male and female,5 and said,Therefore a man shall leave his father and his mother and hold fast to his wife, and the two shall become one flesh’?6 So they are no longer two but one flesh.What therefore God has joined together, let not man separate.”7 They said to him,“Why then did Moses command one to give a certificate of divorce and to send her away?”8 He said to them, “Because of your hardness of heart Moses allowed you to divorce your wives, but from the beginning it was not so.9 And I say to you: whoever divorces his wife, except for sexual immorality, and marries another, commits adultery.
You have been commanded by the Master to hold fast to your wife. You have hardned your heart against the Master commands and your wife by divorcing her with no Biblical grounds and now you are continuing to sin by seeking to commit adultery with another woman.
"Emotional Abuse"? Man up, Evan. Stop making excuses.
Not true. I listen to JonC and Yeshua.

4 Marriage is honourable in all, and the bed undefiled: but whoremongers and adulterers God will judge.

JonC is one of the kindest, most diplomatic posters on BB. He rarely says anything bluntly or controversial. Yeshua....posts far and wide but not particularly deep. You listen to them because they are non-threatening.
However, you consistently ignore the advice of experienced pastors, deacons, and others. In this thread you've blown off the advice of Revmitchell, a pastor, and Annsi, a pastor's wife. Elsewhere, you've rejected the advice of TCassidy, a pastor and John of Japan, a missionary, who are two of the most Bible knowledgeable people on this board. (I know there are others with wisdom you reject that I'm overlooking as well.)
It's established fact that you DO NOT LISTEN to hard truths. You have "itchy ears."

I am going to read this iBook.
And cherry pick the view that agrees with you so you can continue living in sin. The Bible is clear on this issue, there is only one reason for divorce and by your own admission that was not a factor. Matt 9 makes it clear that to remarry after divorce is to commit adultry. Just because you find some liberal scholar to twist that text around will not change that fact.

John MacArthur view: http://www.gty.org/resources/distinctives/DD04/divorce-and-remarriage
He is going with what the Bible clearly says, to have an unbiblical divorce and to remarry is sin, it is adultry.

I just saw this while going through my blogs this morning and thought it was a good addition to our conversation:

He is quite clear in that article and I agree 100% with him. Good word!
