1 | Divorce: believer or unbeliever | Matt 19:8 | Searcher56 | 153644 | ||
We cannot KNOW if the other person is a Christian or not. There are Christians who have a worse standard than one who isn't a Christian. We should believe what they say, and let God judge. If they behave badly we should guide them (Gal 6:1-2). | ||||||
2 | Divorce: believer or unbeliever | Matt 19:8 | humbledbyhisgrace | 153653 | ||
I agree we cannot know another's heart. I stated as much and my intentions are not to be judgmental. This is why my post was more along the lines of questions and thoughts to ponder on this subject. That was my intentions at lest. I'll admit I'm not the most graceful with my words. But what measuring stick is one to use to discern the truth? God's word or the comparison of Christians and their different behaviors? The fundamental question to be answered here I believe is not to determine the man or woman's status as a believer in order to be judgmental, but to ensure we ourselves remain in God's will. Are we to blindly believe in another mans word and risk our own relationship with God? I point back to your scripture reference and ask, to find someone at fault (in sin) do we not ourselves have to know what sin is? If not, how can we then restore one? To find one in sin as stated in this scripture is not to be judgmental is it? |
