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 |

2 | Can an abused person remarry? | 1 Cor 7:39 | CDBJ | 170079 | ||
Greetings Tim, I really appreciate your concern for the divorce situation, but aren’t you stretching it a little with saying what, “God hates”, apart from what the Bible says; or do you have a verse in mind that explains that? Proverbs 6:16-19 These six things doth the Lord hate: yea, seven are an abomination unto him: [17] A proud look, a lying tongue, and hands that shed innocent blood, [18] An heart that deviseth wicked imaginations, feet that be swift in running to mischief, [19] A false witness that speaketh lies, and he that soweth discord among brethren. Have a great day, CDBJ |

Greetings CDBJ! You can add Mal. 2:16 to your list: "“For I hate divorce,” says the Lord, the God of Israel, “and him who covers his garment with wrong,” says the Lord of hosts. “So take heed to your spirit, that you do not deal treacherously.”" Your Brother in Christ, Tim Moran |

Good call Tim, That's a prim example of using more then just the King James. That brings me to wondering if God “hates” the same way we hate or is it an anthropomorphism? Romans 9:13 As it is written, Jacob have I loved, but Esau have I hated. Do you have any take on that? CDBJ x |

Does God really hate? Does He really love? Does God really love or is it an anthropomorphism? The point: If we say God doesn't really hate, then we must also say He doesn't really love. NASB Psalm 5:5 The boastful shall not stand before Your (God's) eyes; You (God) hate all who do iniquity. ____________________ "The Bible never says that God loves the sinner but hates the sin." ____________________ 'Jesus died on the cross to avert the wrath of God from sinners. Therefore, the only way to be "saved" from the wrath of God, is to trust in Christ. This is what it means to be saved. It means to be saved from God's wrath: "Much more then, having now been justified by His blood, we shall be saved from the wrath of God through Him, (Rom. 5:9). 'The gospel is not about a "nice" God who is begging people to come to Him because He loves the sinner but hates the sin. (The Bible never says that God loves the sinner but hates the sin.) 'On the contrary: "The boastful shall not stand before Thine eyes; Thou dost hate all who do iniquity," (Psalm 5:5). And, "There are six things which the Lord hates, yes, seven which are an abomination to Him: 17 Haughty eyes, a lying tongue, and hands that shed innocent blood, 18 A heart that devises wicked plans, feet that run rapidly to evil, 19 A false witness who utters lies, and one who spreads strife among brothers," (Prov. 6:16-19). 'Such biblical teaching is not in harmony with most popular Christian theology today because it doesn't present God as the "nice" God that is begging people to come to Him. Instead, the truth is that God is Holy and He will punish the sinner. But that isn't all of it. God is also love (1 John 4:8) which is why He sent His Son, to save us: “For God did not send the Son into the world to judge the world, but that the world should be saved through Him," (John 3:17).' ____________________ CARM NEWSLETTER, October 30, 2003 To view past newsletters, go to www.carm.org/ newsletters_2003.htm |
