WonderZzzz^ View Profile History	Married to unbelievers Posted : 18 Mar, 2023 09:19 AM As we read and study the New Testament in the Bible , there comes a subject dealing with unequally yoked spouses . First of all here comes a Christian question . First , should the true Christian marry an unbeliever , and the second , is it sin to be wed unto an unbelieving person ? To the first question here comes the Biblical answer . In 2 Corinthians 6: 14 Paul strictly tells not to be equally yoked with unbelievers . Marriage with the unbelievers brings many divisions and feuds in families , due to many moral objections . Here comes the answer for the second question . To be married unto the unbeliever is not a sin . Here Paul gives instructions in 1 Corinthians 7:12-16 , when it comes with those who are unequally yoked . If a believing brother has an unbelieving wife and she wills to live with him , she is sanctified by her husband who is a believer . So , the same goes on with the believing sister and her unbelieving husband . Surely , they shouldn;t divorce according to God's principles .1 Corinthians 7:15 . When it comes that an unbeliever divorces , the believing spouse remains faithful with God and is not accountable for his or her unbelieving spouse's sin . But again . If the believing spouse commits remarriage , that's adultery . Mark 10:11-12 , Luke 16:18 , Matthew 19:9 . Any who commit sin of adultery and continue living in adulterous unions whether they are believers or not , they all will be subject for God's everlasting judgment as all unrepentant sinners . 1 Corinthians 6:9-10 .

You can’t make this stuff up‼️‼️ Worse yet, he appears to rip Bible verses from their original contexts in order to craft his own custom built divorce and remarriage remake—and then he calls that biblical‼️‼️ Lots of Bible wackers hack, chop up and paste together scripture in order to make it say what they want Post Reply

Moonlight7 View Profile History	Married to unbelievers Posted : 21 Mar, 2023 08:46 AM LISTEN UP !! ---------------------- What are biblical grounds for divorce biblical grounds for divorce When discussing what the Bible says about divorce, it is important to keep in mind the words of Malachi 2:16, “I hate divorce, says the Lord God.” Whatever grounds the Bible possibly gives for divorce, that does not mean God desires a divorce to occur in those instances. Rather than asking “is ______ a grounds for divorce,” often the question should be “is _______ grounds for forgiveness, restoration, and/or counseling?” The Bible gives two clear grounds for divorce: (1) sexual immorality (Matthew 5:32; 19:9) and (2) abandonment by an unbeliever (1 Corinthians 7:15). Even in these two instances, though, divorce is not required or even encouraged. The most that can be said is that sexual immorality and abandonment are grounds (an allowance) for divorce. Confession, forgiveness, reconciliation, and restoration are always the first steps. Divorce should only be viewed as a last resort. Are there any grounds for divorce beyond what the Bible explicitly says? Perhaps, but we do not presume upon the Word of God. It is very dangerous to go beyond what the Bible says (1 Corinthians 4:6). The most frequent additional grounds for divorce that people inquire about are spousal abuse (emotional or physical), child abuse, addiction to pornography, drug / alcohol use, crime / imprisonment, and mismanagement of finances (such as through a gambling addiction). None of these can be claimed to be explicit biblical grounds for a divorce. That does not necessarily mean, though, that none of them are grounds for divorce which God would approve of. For example, we cannot imagine that it would be God’s desire for a wife to remain with a husband who physically abuses her and/or their children. In such an instance, the wife should definitely separate herself and the children from the abusive husband. However, even in such a situation, a time of separation with the goal of repentance and restoration should be the ideal, not necessarily immediately beginning divorce proceedings. Please understand, by saying that the above are not biblical grounds for divorce, we are definitely not saying that a man/woman whose spouse is engaging in such activities should remain in the situation. If there is any risk to self or children, separation is a good and appropriate step. Another way to look at this issue is to differentiate between biblical grounds for divorce and biblical grounds for divorce and remarriage. Some interpret the two biblical grounds for divorce mentioned above as the only grounds for remarriage after a divorce, but allow for divorce with no remarriage in other instances. While this is a plausible interpretation, it seems to come too close to presuming upon the Word of God. For more information, please read the following two articles: https://www.gotquestions.org/divorce-remarriage.html https://www.gotquestions.org/divorced-remarry.html In summary, what are the biblical grounds for divorce? The answer is sexual immorality and abandonment. Are there additional grounds for divorce beyond these two? Possibly. Is divorce ever to be treated lightly or employed as the first recourse? Absolutely not. God is capable of changing and reforming any person. God is capable of healing and renewing any marriage. Divorce should only occur in instances of repeated and unrepentant heinous sin. Post Reply

WonderZzzz^ View Profile History	Married to unbelievers Posted : 21 Mar, 2023 09:03 AM My good friend Moonlight7 . I listen what the true Judge named Jesus Christ says , not what the people say . We got nowaday many people who are doing their best to please Satan's craftiness by misunderstanding the Scriptures . Even sodomites are twisting the Bible in order to justify their evils . No one can fake , charm , and buy their way to Heaven . Jesus is The Narrow Way and only few among billions who find way Home . Post Reply

Alligator View Profile History	Married to unbelievers Posted : 21 Mar, 2023 01:11 PM Wonder - in addition to this statement "I am a volunteer web pastor " you also state you are self-employed. many are today and working in accordance with God's plan. But I think your self-employment consists of getting paid to preach lies. You do NOT have the correct answers to many of our problems, and most preachers on the web get paid by unsuspecting people. WHAT IS THE NAME OF YOUR WEBSITE. ? Post Reply
