Does the bible allows divorced christian to remarry?
Posted : 15 Jan, 2011 03:43 PM

I have never been married -so, I dont really qualify to comment on such a sacred issue. However, I love what God loves and hate what God hates. Ive read both the old and new testament regarding these issues and Ive been raised with teaching that spiritual leaders/pastors are unacceptable if they are divorced even for good reason.



I first wish to say that I am excited to find such a mature and God-fearing response in this forum and am honored to cross a distant path with all your thoughts.



My view: I KNOW that God has a PASSION for the institute of marriage and that He LOATHES divorce. God joins people together in love & Jesus died to RECONCILE not divide -so, whatever the reason (whether right or wrong) -I believe God wants to move Heaven and earth to change what we give up on too quickly & too soon. I do believe that in circumstances such as abuse, rape (YES-it does happen in marriages as well), and infidelity -there is a LIMIT that God will give us to holding onto it b/c He does not join us to destruction & the Bible IS clear that a breach of covenant is a broken covenant -but until GOD says it's enough, we need to be careful not to exit a vow we made to God on OUR terms alone. We HAVE to have His mind & hear from Him. HE is the only one who can free us or hold us accountable. The Word does state that each man rises and falls before his own master. And-i believe that that means that we each have a relationship with God that noone else can have for us even while they proclaim that they know better. Let each one be convinced in his own mind (i believe Paul said that somewhere). For him who knows to do good and does it not -to him it is sin (thats def James). We cant be judging a matter that belongs only to God. May God lead you and have mercy on your situation and give you peach and purpose.

The Bible doesn't control anyone. Anyone can remarry after divorce. It does however provide best advice. It is written in such a way that the best case scenario is what is provided. So that it can be preventative. A single person can decide if he should marry a divorced person or not. The Bible says that it is best if a person does not because it can get complicated and confusing. But grace and forgiveness do apply. God gave us the freedom to make our choices. I choose to live within the guidelines of the Bible as much as is possible. But there will always be circumstances that are overwhelming maybe because of lack of foresight.
