2 | divorced-remarry makes one an adulterer? | Luke 16:18 | Jalek | 240472 | ||
Greetings, You're pretty much on the mark, but let me clarify. Recall your wedding vows ... "Till death do we part ...". It's not "Until we get sick and tired of each other ...". Biblical Marriage is until death, not until both parties get tired of being together. So, that's the primary reason why remarrying after divorce is the same as Adultery. Because the divorced person is still married in the eyes of God. Now, I realize this sounds harsh, but as God hates divorce, so do I. People in today's world treat marriage as something like a toaster oven they get on Christmas. If they don't like it, they can return it. Love isn't viewed as the most powerful of all emotions, but is viewed as something like their sunglasses and car keys, as if love is something that can be lost. Love never fails. Love never fades away. There's one last thing I want to point out is the reason behind divorce. In Deuteronomy 24:1-4, Moses explains that divorce is allowed if the woman is found to be unclean or indecent in some manner. Jesus, in Matthew 19:1-12, clarifies that a person who remarries after divorce commits adultery unless the reason for the divorce is because the spouse was immoral. Paul, in 1 Corinthians 7:10-16, first recommends reconciliation. However, he goes on to say that if the divorce happens because one is an unbeliever and leaves, then to let that one leave. Jalek |
