[@naturalwoman605]

Before coming to the knowledge that divorce after remarriage while your spouse is alive is adultery, I used to sincerely ask the Lord, "God, what is the point of marriage if I could remarry anyone I want? What is even the point of abstinence if marriage with whomever I want is possible, or so I think it's possible since so many people are doing it? You can apparently be one flesh with anyone, whenever you want as long as you're married." Little did I know... there is a serious significance to holy matrimony and the Spirit was leading me to his truth on the matter. And now I praise him so much for revealing it to me.

Question: Isn't it arrogant to believe divorce and remarriage is adultery since so many wise pastors do not? Answer: No. It isn't arrogant to believe divorce and remarriage - while the spouse yet lives - is adultery, because no pastor being wise would ever advocate for such wickedness. Only prideful pastors will walk in willful sin and teach others to do the same... Only prideful pastors make merchandise of men's souls... as they entertain their fans and in turn reap the rewards - cash donations - for their Mixture (false teachings that tickle the ears of sinners)... Only prideful pastors are arrogant enough to reject God's Word as they mock God with their fake and false worship.

Divorce and remarriage hurt children and the innocent. A man could get himself killed by moving in with a divorced woman’s estate. Pastors who preached that the Bible teaches remarriages are OK under some conditions absolutely fail on this issue. Google David Pawson on this issue.

[@missinsanelogic]

That's why Jesus said if you send her away you are causing her to commit adultery. You have to give her a certificate of divorce than she can get remarried to alleviate problems

[@SaanichtonMinistries]

missinsanelogic don’t spin the Word. In that statement was actually saying that divorce is meaningless and not recognized by God. The person who divorces his wife can force her into adultery as being married to a husband in that time could have meant survival. So the man could be guilty and or share guilt of the sin of adultery simply by doing the sin of divorce. He does not even have to commit the sexual act to be guilty. That is the destructive power of divorce. It is what I will continue to rebuke and call out for the rest of my life. Divorce and remarriage is adultery. Period.

[@missinsanelogic]

@@SaanichtonMinistries Nice strawman. You have to attribute malicious intent to the truth so make you feel you have the truth when you don't. The Bible is clear, if you are married don't seek to divorce, if you are divorced don't seek to be married, but if you do , it is not a sin

[@missinsanelogic]

@Be Ye HOLY it doesn't make sense for your case at all 1. If you don't be married, you will be alone. 2. If you are married and get divorced and can't remarry , you will be alone The exact same outcome, but #2 you have a chance of being in a good marriage, so why exactly are the disciples saying it is better not to be married if remarriage is not allowed?? Doesn't make sense. Jesus requires men to not send away their wives without a certificate of divorce, meaning they have to give her a dowry or a provision when they sent her off, that is why it is better not to marry in the first place. Jesus was talking about the treachery of sending wives away without a certificate of divorce leaving them alone , without money, and vulnerable to be accused of adultery if she remarried another man. You guys just have religious spirits , forbidding the woman to get married .

I have prayed that the Lord send many more of His servants to speak the truth on this matter which had sadly fallen into the cracks with His people. All glory unto Him. When Paul said that one is "no longer bound," he goes on to add, "because the Lord has called us to peace." Peace? Does remarriage constitute peace? No, that which the Holy Spirit (through Paul) is referring to is no longer being bound to marital duties, which can no longer be otherwise conducted in a peaceful manner. Concerning divorce, The Father can separate His people out from their marriage for His purposes as He did in the Book of Ezra (no where does Scripture say that the Lord cannot separate out that which He or man has joined together). However, Paul does not mince words when He tells those who are divorced to remain unmarried. If remarriage was allowed whilst the first spouse was still alive, then what prohibits 3 marriages or 5? I walk in this example, personally. The Lord has not ordained a spouse for me, and so I needed to lay those desires on His Holy Altar, along with my life, in order for the flesh to be crucified and to die to self. Last but not least, the Lord's judgement is now upon us and it begins in His House. Christians who are living in sin are under this judgement- not His provision and protection, as most believe.

After studying this topic, I have a question. If a wife divorces her husband and refuses to reconcile. Wouldn't it be lawful for a man to take a second wife? Becuase polygamy was lawful. Even the new testament mentions to be a church elder, the man must be the husband of one wife. The verses seem very sex specific. In the old testament law, it wouldn't have been lawful for a woman to divorce her husband either. There isn't a verse that says if a woman divorces her husband, that the husband cannot take a second wife. For the sake of procreation, that makes sense to me. Any thoughts?

[@digjunk3d]

If a woman divorces her husband that husband is also divorcing his wife. He doesn't have to instigate it. "Whoever divorces his wife,.." doesn't mean he started it. And when it comes to procreation, a never been married man or woman should only take another never been married (or widowed) spouse, and that's where the procreation lies.

The admonition against divorce at all is to prevent tempting your spouse to commit adultery by separating. The except in case of sexual immorality thing in Matthew allows divorce because you can't tempt your spouse to commit a sin they are committing anyway. It does not give you permission to remarry. Just gives you permission to get rid of your spouse and live elsewhere. Of course it is important to remember in Jesus day, adulterers were murdered by stoning to death. Because even then, people knew only death could break the marriage covenant, so they solved the problem with bloodshed.

One day a lovely new secretary came to the church and caught my eye. I felt guilty until I realized my “wife” was not my own! Blessed indeed to be freed from that awful union and now in covenant marriage with the secretary Tally! Though the churches and my parents side with my fake ex and support her stand for my return since they all believe professing Christians need to keep their “marriages” even if they had a living spouse before they were saved that left them! They like to claim this is how the Bible is and how God makes covenants and that he only allows a believer with an unbeliever in yoke one flesh as long as the unsaved stays in the marriage.

JESUS DIED FOR OUR SINS because death is the only way to fulfill the law/covenant just like in a marriage. Jesus died in place of us so that we may have Grace he knew we couldn't keep the law .

Nowhere in the Bible have I found that it's okay to remarry if you divorce. Only death of the spouse allows it. We should not add to scripture to make up our own assumptions of what Paul was saying. In some of the oldest manuscripts that we have access to Matthew 19:9 does not read like our modern Bibles do. Matthew 19:9 reads just like Matthew 5:32 there is no exception clause in Matthew 5:32.

[@ajlouviere202]

The divorce and remarriage for adultery doctrine is based solely on the supposed guilt of the wife in Matthew 5:32, and Matthew 19:9. However, the wife in Matthew 5:31-32 is clearly not guilty of fornication because the Jews that Jesus was speaking to were still living under the law, and if fornication was discovered, there was a moral obligation to report the offender according to Deuteronomy 22:13-24. The wife, who would have been found guilty of fornication, was subsequently stoned to death, according to the law, which had still governed the Jews up until Christ's death on the cross. The same for a woman caught in adultery, according to Leviticus 20:10. How could a wife, guilty of fornication, or adultery, under the law of Moses, be given a writing of divorcement and be caused to commit adultery with whosoever marries her, that is divorced? Jesus is clear, in these examples, that the wife is not guilty of fornication, but is still caused to commit adultery if she marries another man now that she is divorced. This is the only way that Matthew 5:31-32, and Matthew 19:9 keep harmony with Romans 7:2-3, and 1 Corinthians 7:39. Please use wisdom when living in any situation against what the scriptures command. The ancient Jews called the betrothed (engaged) "husband" and "wife" according to Deuteronomy 22:23-24, Matthew 1:18-25, and Luke 2:5-7. Deuteronomy 24:1-4 (Moses's precept of divorce and remarriage) was never for fornication or adultery. Allowing those guilty of fornication and adultery to remain living and become a prospect for remarriage was against the law of Moses in Deuteronomy 22:13-24 and Leviticus 20:10, which commanded that those who were found guilty of fornication and adultery be put away from Israel, and stoned to death. The law of Moses was not given to the world, only to the Jews. From the exodus, to Christ's death on the cross, the law of Moses governed the Jewish people. But when Jesus died on the cross, he caused the Jews to be dead to the law of Moses so they could be joined to Christ under a New Covenant. This is what Jesus's fulfillment of the law of Moses, including Deuteronomy 24:1-4 (Moses's precept of divorce and remarriage), means. Paul gave several warnings to Christian believers against keeping the law of Moses over following Christ and his commands under the New Covenant with Christ. Keeping the whole law is no longer possible for those in Israel and that is why Christ prophesied that the temple would be destroyed. These scriptures make it clear that if you choose the law over Christ, that you must keep the whole law: Romans 7:4, Galatians 3:1-9, Galatians 3:10-29, Galatians 4:1-7, Galatians 4:21-31, and Galatians 5:1-15. The phrase "sexual immorality" being used in Matthew 5:32 and Matthew 19:9, in place of "fornication", creates conflict with what is written about fornication and adultery in Hosea 4:13-14, 1 Corinthians 6:9-10, and Galatians 5:19-21. Being unequally yoked to unbelievers is not a cause for divorce, once two become one-flesh in a covenant of marriage, according to 1 Corinthians 7:12-14. Many one-flesh covenant marriages between unbelievers are recognized by God in the scriptures, most notably the marriage covenants between Herodias and King Herod's brother Philip, Potiphar and his wife, Ahab and Jezebel, and Ruth to her deceased husband Mahlon by Boaz when he took her to be his wife. Some are teaching that 1 Corinthians 7:15 implies that those who are abandoned by the unbeliever, are "no longer bound" in a one-flesh covenant of marriage. The reason this is in conflict is due to the way they word it, which gives it an entirely different meaning, and context. 1 Corinthians 7:15, says, "15But if the unbelieving depart, let him depart. A brother or a sister is not under bondage in such cases: but God hath called us to peace." As you can see, the actual scripture says "not under bondage," which means that the husband or wife is not enslaved to sin with the unbelieving spouse, and is free to worship Christ in peace. Subsequent translations have changed the words to imply that they nullify the marriage covenant, when this is not at all the case. The issue that this creates is with 1 Corinthians 7:10-11, which says, "10And unto the married I command, yet not I, but the Lord, Let not the wife depart from her husband: 11But and if she depart, let her remain unmarried, or be reconciled to her husband: and let not the husband put away his wife." As you can see, those who claim 1 Corinthians 7:15 has the Apostle Paul giving permission to remarry do not understand that the abandoned husband in 1 Corinthians 7:11 is expected to also remain unmarried, in order to be reconciled with his wife. The theory that 1 Corinthians 7:15 nullifies two as being one-flesh in marriage puts the Apostle Paul directly at odds with Christ, by implying that he has issued an opposing command. Some also teach that 1 Corinthians 7:27-28 is referring to both divorced men, and virgin women, and not exclusively to men and women (virgins) who have never been married. This has been falsely taught for some time in churches as referring to anyone who is not currently in a marriage, which, for them, also includes those who are divorced. This is a very false assumption, and puts these verses in a different context, that is at odds with both the teachings of Christ and the apostle Paul. We see Paul refer to virgins, which signifies the unmarried who have never before been wed, which is the proper context here. We see Paul saying clearly that it is good for virgins, which is also speaking to never before wed men here, "that it is good for a man so to be." He goes on to say, "Art thou bound unto a wife? seek not to be loosed. Art thou loosed from a wife? seek not a wife." Who is he referring to here? Men who, like himself, have never married. The word "bound", in these verses, is a clear reference to betrothal (engagement) and not to a one-flesh covenant of marriage. The ancient Jews were considered bound as husband and wife during the betrothal (espousal/engagement) before becoming one-flesh in a covenant of marriage, through consummation. This is affirmed by the context of the term "bound" seen in Numbers 30:14-16. The Jewish couples in ancient Israel, who were betrothed (engaged) were also bound together until death, either by execution for fornication, or by other causes. Then Paul says, "But and if thou marry, thou has not sinned", which is who? The men who had never married in the congregation at Corinth. So he begins with verses 25-26 speaking exclusively to men that have never married. Paul then says, "and if a virgin marry, she hath not sinned", which is speaking directly about virgin women who have never been married, within the congregation, not divorced women. Notice that verse 34 says, "There is difference also between a wife and a virgin. The unmarried woman careth for the things of the Lord, that she may be holy both in body and in spirit: but she that is married careth for the things of the world, how she may please her husband." Paul speaks plainly when he says "there is a difference between a wife and a virgin." Paul goes on to say, "But if any man think that he behaveth himself uncomely toward his virgin, if she pass the flower of her age, and need so require, let him do what he will, he sinneth not: let them marry." This is speaking of a father with a virgin daughter who has become of age to bear children when it says, "let them marry." This is a clear command to a third party, the father, and not a divorced man who has taken a virgin to be his wife. Paul then says, "Nevertheless he that standeth stedfast in his heart, having no necessity, but hath power over his own will, and hath so decreed in his heart that he will keep his virgin, doeth well." This is referring again to the father who decides it is better for his dauther not to marry, but to stay betrothed (engaged), under the present distress, by saying that he "hath so decreed in his heart that he will keep his virgin." Paul then says, "So then he that giveth her in marriage doeth well; but he that giveth her not in marriage doeth better", which means that fathers of virgin daughters in the congregation do well if they choose to allow their betrothed virgin to marry, and fathers, who choose not to allow their virgin daughters to marry do better, under the current climate. For more proper context of the word "bound", let's look further down in this chapter to verse 39, which says, "39The wife is bound by the law as long as her husband liveth; but if her husband be dead, she is at liberty to be married to whom she will; only in the Lord" (1 Corinthians 7:39). For so long, these scriptures, between verses 25-38, have been twisted and used to enable divorce and remarriage, by wayward churches and teachers, and have caused many to stumble and to be trapped in unlawful unions. The use of the woman at the well, in regard to marriage, falsely implies that Christ was endorsing remarriage after a divorce. This teaching is in defiance of Matthew 22:23-28, which shows a woman who had been widowed seven times, and entered into each subsequent marriage without any scriptural conflicts with God's law of marriage (one-flesh covenant) seen in Genesis 2:23-24. Mark 10:1-12 is the same biblical record of Matthew 19:1-12, which both record Christ's teaching that day beyond the Jordan. There is no mention of the words "fornication", "writing of divorcement", or "divorced" in Mark's Gospel, because Mark was not written to the Jews (as Matthew's Gospel was), but to evangelize the Romans and Greeks, who had no knowledge of the law in Deuteronomy 22 or Deuteronomy 24. All of these facts draw a clear understanding that remarriage after a divorce, under the New Covenant with Christ, is a scripturally false and baseless teaching.

Jesus does say in matthew 19:9"And I say to you: whoever divorces his wife, except for sexual immorality, and marries another, commits adultery.” This would mean 1) that it is lawful to divorce for sexual immorality, and 2) the one who was not sexually immoral is able to remarry. It is adultery to divorce and remarry, but here Jesus explicitly says "except for sexual immorality." One might say "no hes only saying its ok to divorce for that reason, but not to remarry." That would be to remove it from its full context. Jesus is talking about someone who divorced and remarries, the one exception He gives is in the case of sexual immorality.

Please allow me to apologize for my polemic essay earlier. I've been praying about learning the truth on this matter and being less angry relative to my own desires, and less needing to take it out on fellow believers and especially pastors or priests. Here are some new thoughts that came to me: One of the oldest churches, the Catholic church, does not allow for divorce and remarriage. Another of the oldest churches, the Orthodox church, does. Jesus states that divorce and remarriage = adultery 4 times in the Gospels. 2 of those times includes an exception for sexual immorality, 2 do not. As suggested by the above ambiguity, which causes so much debate within the church, God knew that it might not be good to never allow for divorce, but he also knew that if he spelled it out too clearly that that would be taken advantage of. The end result is that anyone who comes to faith and is concerned about it, will be extremely careful in their future decisions, and maybe that's the best possible answer. Which means to me I will never have a truly solid answer on whether it is right or wrong. And God in his wisdom does not want me to have such an answer, because then I would take decisions I make in this area of my life less seriously.

[@SaintAthanasiusChurch]

Thanks for the comment and apology, Derek. We understand this can be a difficult subject. And we understand that it can be difficult to harmonize the texts in Matthew with the texts in Mark, Luke, Romans, and 1 Corinthians. But we are persuaded the best way to harmonize the texts is to permit divorce in cases of unrepentant sexual immorality, but to never allow remarriage while the former spouse is still alive. When Paul gives a concession for the wife to separate from her husband, he says her only options are to remain single or be reconciled. The West has been blessed far greater than the East, and we are persuaded that this is due in large part to the West not adopting the East's permissive stance on divorce and remarriage. And since we have recently in the last century adopted the East's permissiveness, we are seeing God's curse on us because of our covenant unfaithfulness.

Instead I'm praying for God to have me do whatever he wills, and to participate in church as much as I can including community efforts. If he would want to restore this aspect of my life and give me a real second chance one day with someone who takes marriage and life seriously, it might become clear some day. But if not...it's alright. He already richly blessed my life in countless ways. Also, I think the church changing positions on this (regardless of denomination) has very little to do with the amount of divorce today. I believe it is much more to do with that contraceptive technology and the resulting autonomy for women simply makes sex, marriage and divorce have less severe consequences (though obviously still very severe, especially where children are concerned). And modern narcissism, which infects everyone's minds with idols of sex, money and distracting entertainment. It's a miracle any time anyone's life becomes oriented squarely towards God.

(See verses below) MATTHEW 5:32 But I say unto you, That whosoever shall put away his wife, saving for the cause of *fornication,* causeth her to commit *adultery:* and whosoever shall marry her that is DIVORCED committeth *adultery.* MATTHEW 19:9 And I say unto you, Whosoever shall put away his wife, except it be for *fornication,* and shall marry another, committeth *adultery:* and whoso marrieth her which is PUT AWAY doth commit *adultery.* A child is smart enough to figure out the difference between the two by their definitions: FORNICATION - Sexual immorality outside the bounds of marriage. ADULTERY - Sexual immorality against the bounds of one's marriage covenant. People wrest the scriptures, twisting and redefining what the words actually say to appease their guilt. They're only fooling theirselves.... Damning theirselves, in all truthful reality! There is a sinister reason behind the production of new translations. Think about it.

[@gordonepema722]

Whoever divorces his wife, except for immorality, and marries another, commits adultery - Mt 5-32, Mk 19-9. Don't know if that applied to an adulterous husband, but I expect it would. Where does that leave the injured party (assuming they were innocent)? Are they free to remarry, having been betrayed and abandoned by their lawful spouse? I've seen no specific answer to that question. Things being the way they were in those times, perhaps a woman wrongfully divorced by a philandering or remarried husband was considered to be a widow and she and any children would be supported by community charity.

[@stephanieturner5931]

@REAL NEWS UNCUT & RAW so a murdered spouse isn't an injured party? What do you mean there is no injured party? If you beat yourself? Did Christ assault or abuse the church? Didn't God divorce Israel for breaking their vows and covenant?

[@stephanieturner5931]

@REAL NEWS UNCUT & RAW so worse is just allowing the other person to murder you or your children? There's no limit? I mean technically that's death due you part, but for you to say that in abuse, attempted murder or murder, there is no injured party is ridiculous.

[@stephanieturner5931]

@REAL NEWS UNCUT & RAW you said "no matter what". And there is "no injured party".

[@mateosawyers6059]

@REAL NEWS UNCUT & RAW please answer this question for me: how is it, that YHVH can break the blood covenant of an exsatanis; forgive the killing, the rapes, the killing of Christian people, all kinds of blasfemi. God sees their repented heart (like apostle Paul), forgives them and YHVH, doesn't demand from them to go to the authorities to turn themselves in, to prove that the are really sorry, but instead YHVH just forgives them. I know someone personally like that, and now he is preaching YHVH's word. But YHVH, demands from the divorce person who is now married to someone else, to break that covenant and either returned to his first wife or remain unmarried. YHVH, doesn't dissolve the first marriage, so if I don't divorce and stay single, I now continue to live in a state of adultery

[@bluedistortions]

Divorce and remarriage is not a sin. The Bible never says "God hates divorce." It says, "God hates the putting away." Divorce and "putting away" are two different words in Hebrew, and the English translators either didn't know that, or didnt like that and changed it, like when they changed "Sabbath" to "first day," because they wanted to justify Sunday worship. Sticking to divorce, again, God said he hates the putting away, which is what the pagan nations around Israel did. The Hebrews were to write a bill of divorce, and give the ex-wife her dowry back, so she then had something to live off of, and a legal right to remarry. If she was merely put out of the house and told not to return, she couldnt remarry, and had nothing. Interestingly, today pastors preach the "putting away" all over again, saying just because your partner betrayed you, you have no options and are forever bent over a barrel. But that's what we get for listening to pastors and theologians, and not God. Jeremiah 8:8, the scribes change the words of God. Or as Jesus said, they preach the traditions of man, while ignoring what God requires.

[@hamilton9651]

It's because you are telling people that they cannot remarry and consequently they have to remain single and celibate. It has nothing to do with clarity in the Scriptures! Celibate being the operative word!

[@sonjamarx7144]

Divorce is not ideal and it really hurt everyone but what should a spouse do when his partners heart is not in the marriage and want to leave. Its easy standing on the side till you get into this situation. And then what about peopke living together, do you think you are free because you didnt finish the paperwork. The moment you sleep together you went into covenant with that person so i think we must be carefull about just answering this question because even Jesus and the apostles listened to the specific case. You cannot answer to every situation in general.

If a husband or wife was not thw guilty one in the divorce i belief she or he is free. If you are an adulterous then it anyway better not to ever remarry again. Why should the party in this case that gave everything pay the price for a partner that didnt take their commitment serious.

[@evinevlin5124]

There are the pastors have incorrect teaching based on Matthew 5 : 32 or Matt 19 : 9 they said : a wife is abandon or left by her unfaithful husband or her husband commiting adultery, and divorces her, she can remarried another man. The statement is contradict to the words of Jesus in Matt 5 : 32b Whoever marries a woman who is divorced he commits adiltery, Mark 10 : 12 : a wife does not divorce her husband then she marries another man she commits adultery. 1 Cor 7 : 11, 39 Lord commandi a wife is divorce let her remain unmaried or reconciled to her husband. As long as her husband lives, she will br called and adultress if she becomes partner of other man but if her hudband dies she is free to remarry but in the Lord. In Matt 5 : 32 or 19 : 9b Jesus says these words only to married men or husband : Anyone divorces hi wife except for fornicatin/ sexual immoralitu) and marries another she commits adultery

[@ajlouviere202]

In your Mark 10:12 example you stated "a wife who does not divorce her husband then she marries another man she commits adultery." I think this is just by mistake, since you have the proper context on the other scriptures. The actual verse, in Mark 10:12, states, "and if she herself divorces her husband and marries another man, she is committing adultery.”

Moses has 2 wifes, you read about Zipporra a Medianite, the father he was a shephard of. Later you read that he only saw his children once when his father in law gave him advice to decide on a leader in each tribe to help him take some responsibility. You never read from Zipporra again but about Moses taking (another) wife that was dark of skin and a Qusite where Miriam mocked him and got lepracy as the result of it. Did you realise its not the same wife and what happened to Zipporra. Maybe she choose not to walk with him and left him???

Some of these pastors, like John Piper, aren’t saying remarriage is ok. They are saying if you are already remarried (esp if that marriage produced kids) then you can’t put the horse back in the barn. What’s done is done. There ARE some pastors who say it’s ok and usually because they a.) are remarried themselves or b.) have officiated weddings of remarriage and that’s what they do. I am divorced and it is the desire of my heart to remarry but I won’t and I am banking on my faith and obedience growing stronger. My ex-husband never remarried either but he has a common-law wife. He has his path and I have mine.
