Handyman62 View Profile History	The divorce/re-marriage sin factor Posted : 26 Oct, 2024 08:57 PM A lot of people seem to be under the impression that when you commit the sin of divorce, and then you ask for forgiveness, that the forgiveness you have received means God has given you the green light to remarry. God's forgiveness doesn't change the fact that you divorced against God's law so that hasn't changed. If you do remarry then you're just adding another sin on top of the original sin. So if you do that, then of course you can get forgiveness for that. BUT that forgiveness doesn't cover you for the ongoing sin that you will be committing everyday you remain married to someone other than your original spouse. It's like this: If you steal an item and then ask for forgiveness, but then rather than return what you stole, you keep it and use it like it always belonged to you. Does your forgiveness automatically make the item yours? Here's another more extreme example: If you commit the sin of murder and then God forgives you of that murder, does that mean that all murders you commit going forward are also automatically forgiven? I think people really miss the boat, either out of ignorance or on purpose. I say that because so far I've seen nothing in the scriptures to indicate you're not sinning if you get divorced and remarried against God's wishes, even when you ask for forgiveness. Staying in that type of a relationship is just repeating the original sins. Post Reply

Some of them write books for suckers to buy. These suckers buy these books because they are grasping at straws to find reasons to justify the sin of divorce & remarriage that they already know in their hearts the truth about. There are many things in the Bible the aren't the easiest to interpret. But whether divorce/remarriage is or isn't a sin is as plain as the nose on your face. Nobody needs someone else's misinterpretation to see that. Post Reply

Handyman62 View Profile History	The divorce/re-marriage sin factor Posted : 27 Oct, 2024 10:54 AM Here's just a sample of scriptures showing (among other things) how God only gives one reason for divorce and remarriage. Matthew 19:4-6 4 And He answered and said to them, “Have you not read that He who made them at the beginning ‘made them male and female,’ 5 and said, ‘For this reason a man shall leave his father and mother and be joined to his wife, and the two shall become one flesh’? 6 So then, they are no longer two but one flesh. Therefore what God has joined together, let not man separate.” 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. 1 Corinthians Chapter 7 1 Now concerning the things whereof ye wrote unto me: It is good for a man not to touch a woman. 2 Nevertheless, to avoid fornication, let every man have his own wife, and let every woman have her own husband. 3 Let the husband render unto the wife due benevolence: and likewise also the wife unto the husband. 4 The wife hath not power of her own body, but the husband: and likewise also the husband hath not power of his own body, but the wife. 5 Defraud ye not one the other, except it be with consent for a time, that ye may give yourselves to fasting and prayer; and come together again, that Satan tempt you not for your incontinency. 6 But I speak this by permission, and not of commandment. 7 For I would that all men were even as I myself. But every man hath his proper gift of God, one after this manner, and another after that. 8 I say therefore to the unmarried and widows, It is good for them if they abide even as I. 9 But if they cannot contain, let them marry: for it is better to marry than to burn. 10 And unto the married I command, yet not I, but the Lord, Let not the wife depart from her husband: 11 But and if she depart, let her remain unmarried, or be reconciled to her husband: and let not the husband put away his wife. 1 Corinthians 7:39 - The 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. Mark 10:12 - And if a woman shall put away her husband, and be married to another, she committeth adultery. Genesis 2:24 - Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave unto his wife: and they shall be one flesh. Matthew 5:31-32 “Furthermore it has been said, ‘Whoever divorces his wife, let him give her a certificate of divorce.’ 32 But I say to you that whoever divorces his wife for any reason except sexual immorality causes her to commit adultery; and whoever marries a woman who is divorced commits adultery.

Handyman62 View Profile History	The divorce/re-marriage sin factor Posted : 27 Oct, 2024 11:51 AM So you would rather give excuses instead of answering the question? I wish you would reconsider because I'm genuinely interested in all responses to what I write whether you agree or not. What I don't want are useless word salads or excuses. Well reasoned replies help us to understand where each other is coming from. However I do reserve the right to give a response to any and all. Post Reply
