1 | Can an abused person remarry? | 1 Cor 7:39 | Tim3:16 | 170075 | ||
DSM, The reason is, God Hates Divorce. There are Scriptural grounds for divorce, they are: Adultery and Desertion. And, desertion is questionable. I am sorry to hear of your dilemna, One thing I can reason is that God would hate physical, emotional and child abuse more than He hates divorce, but we must rely on God's Word, not man's reasoning. In this situation, the Word calls for seperation. If the abusing spouse does not want a divorce, professional help would likely be sought in order to overcome the problem. I will pray for a solution to come quickly, Tim |

What do you mean desertion is questionable? 1 Corinthians 7:15 The Amplified Bible But if the unbelieving partner [actually] leaves, let him do so; in such [cases the remaining] brother or sister is not morally BOUND. But God has called us to peace. The Holy Bible, New International VersionĀ® But if the unbeliever leaves, let him do so. A believing man or woman is NOT BOUND in such circumstances; God has called us to live in peace. The black-letter words in your Bible are no less inspired than the red-letter words. The book of 1 Corinthians is just as inspired as the words of Jesus. EVERY Scripture is God-breathed (given by His inspiration)...2 Timothy 3:16 The Amplified Bible The New King James Version ALL Scripture is given by inspiration of God... |

Thanks for the correction, Kalos. Actually, BOTH instances are questionable. Just because your spouse cheats on you, that should not automatically result in divorce, but rather, the preferrable outcome would be reconciliation. Moses was not condoning divorce, but because of the hardness of the people's hearts was actually trying to place limits on a practice that was already widespread. But Jesus said to them, "Because of your hardness of heart he wrote you this commandment. "But from the beginning of creation, GOD MADE THEM MALE AND FEMALE. "FOR THIS REASON A MAN SHALL LEAVE HIS FATHER AND MOTHER, AND THE TWO SHALL BECOME ONE FLESH; so they are no longer two, but one flesh. "What therefore God has joined together, let no man separate." Mk 10:5-9 (NASB) |
