Does the bible allows divorced christian to remarry?

I never said life without a wife was depressing. What I find depressing is the thought of going through life without a help mate. Yes, God is our everything.



But even God who was visiting with Adam on a personal, Physical level said It was not good for him to be alone. He gave him a mate.



Why is it wrong to still want a godly mate?

Hello everyone:

I believe Yeshua/Jesus said:hearts?

Mat 9:5 For whether is easier, to say, Thy sins be forgiven thee; or to say, Arise, and walk?

Mat 9:6 But that ye may know that the Son of man hath power on earth to forgive sins, (then saith he to the sick of the palsy,) Arise, take up thy bed, and go unto thine house.



I believe the Blood of Yeshua cleanses me from all my sins and every time I have and will ever sin.



Only one sin is unforgiveable,yet there are cosequences,and problems because of every sin.



1Co 7:27 Art thou bound unto a wife? seek not to be loosed. Art thou loosed from a wife? seek not a wife.

1Co 7:28 But and if thou marry, thou hast not sinned; and if a virgin marry, she hath not sinned. Nevertheless such shall have trouble in the flesh: but I spare you.

1Co 7:29 But this I say, brethren, the time is short: it remaineth, that both they that have wives be as though they had none;





I do not want anyone thinking that I am condoning sin,nor am i proclaiming Antinomianism.



I proclaim Grace:

I proclaim the Gospel and Forgiveness:



Agape' and Charis:

George

For a few of you who have it a little wrong here!



YOU ARE ALLOWED TO RE-MARRY.



Only under the condition THAT:



Your wife/husband has been an adulterer/divorced you.



You are not allowed to divorce and then just re-marry, just because you want to.



If your partner has divorced you (For this is abandonment, and a breach of sacred marriage.) or done any form of adultery then you are allowed to re-marry as you please.



Those are the only conditions in which it is okay to re-marry.

The issue is a very important one I do agree. It addresses and outline this in 1 Corinthians. However what people overlook and choose not to except is that a man that has been divorced after the point of Salvation can not be a Pastor. This is defined in Timothy. People have tried to change the meaning of the word bishop but when you go back to the Greek the word means one in pastoral rule.

Redleg,



Scripture is clear that in your case... having been wronged by your spouse committing adultery, you are free to remarry. If you need specifics, look at Matthew 9:19 "I tell you that anyone who divorces his wife, except for marital unfaithfulness, and marries another woman commits adultery."



Also look at Matthew 5:32

"But I tell you that anyone who divorces his wife, except for marital unfaithfulness, causes her to become an adulteress, and anyone who marries the divorced woman commits adultery."

So if a partner is in a marriage and the spouse is behaving in a way that is not fulfilling their side of the marriage contract, what does that mean?



For example, if the husband is beating his wife on a regular basis, does that mean if she divorces him, then she cannot remarry?

There is a price to pay for being single and there is a price to pay for getting married. I believe Gods love for us is deeper than our minds can understand. Verse to the religious Jews

about the sabbath and pulling your ox out of the ditch.We need to be practical in our earthly affairs,or the devil will make minced meat out of us.

There is that verse about re-marring and divorce except for adultery. so we must be careful as our Lord said it. He alone knows our hearts. We must pray all the more before taking any steps on our own.

This is a big and difficult subject in the family of God these days. Why???



I would encourage everyone that is in this situation to open their bibles and seek the mind of God for their selves in this.



I believe this is one of the problems of the church today. Lazzy christians.



Our God has many treasures to know and find about who He is and who we are before Him. Their are many verses to study and meditate on concerning this subject. Yield to the Spirit of God to teach you.



Work on putting aside your own heart and prejudices concerning this. Find and develop you own convictions concerning this. If you seek God you will find Him. You will find many treasures of your heart in seeking for who God is!!

I was meditating this morning on a question Jesus asked. I love His questions because they get right to the heart of things.

Think about this question and meditate on what it means when it comes to leading and following.



Luke 6:39 Jesus asks: Can the blind lead the blind? Will they not both fall into the ditch?

If I look long enough and thoroughly enough I can find many commentaries and interpretations on 1 Corinthians 7. My divorce is as unique as any other brother or sister's. There are overlapping issues that are similar, but just as there is no other creation like me, what I have experienced is mine and mine alone. Only the Lord knows where my heart is. I only concern myself with Him on the subject.



That said, I know there are consequences...not punishments but consequences that come along with my divorce. I MUST accept the responsibility for this. That is the "rule" if you will. So with this, I must be open to the possibility that I am to remain single as one of the consequences.



I wish to encourage anyone interested to look up 1 Corinthians 7 commentary by Barnes, Matthew Henry and Jay Adams.



I am "covered" in my situation. I held on as long as I could. Still it was my choice to divorce.
