1 | Divorced Do Christians Get Remarried? | 1 Cor 6:9 | Tamara Brewington | 205279 | ||
Dear Forum members, First referrnce to go with the question; I Corinthians 6:9,10 Or do you not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived; neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor homosexuals, nor theives, nor the covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor swindlers, will inherit the kingdom of God. Second referrence for the question; Mathew 19:8 Because of the hardness of heart Moses permitted you to divorce your wives; but from the beginning it has not been this way. And I say to you, whoever divorces his wife except for immorality, and marries another woman commits adultery. Mark 10:11,12 And He said to them, "Whoever divorces his wife and marries another woman commits adultery against her; and if she herself divorces her husband and marries another man, she is committing adultery. Third referrence for the question; Hebrews 6:4-6 For in the case of those who have once been enlightened and have tasted of the heavenly gift and have been partakers of the Holy Spirit, and have tasted the good word of God and the powers of the age to come, and then ahve fallen away, it is impossible to renew them again to repentance, since they again crucify to themselves the Son of God and put Him to open shame. Fourth referrence for the question; Mathe 7:21 Not everyone who says to me 'Lord, Lord', will enter the kindom of heaven, but he who does the will of the Father who is in heaven will enter. Here is the situation, I have had the pleasure to know a number of wonderfull Christian couples who were previously divorced and then got remarried. Here are variations on this subject that will drive my question; 1)One member of the present marriage was divorced while an unbeliever due to both unbelieving parties committing adultery getting divorced, but repented of committing adultery and getting a divorce and after becoming a Christian got married to a Christians widow. 2)One member of the present marriage got a divorce due to their unbelieving spouse committing adultery and leaving, and then met a wonderful Christian and got married. 3)Both members of the present marriage had previous spouses who committed adultery on them and got divorced and all parties involved were Christians, then they met and got married. All of these marriages are wonderful marriages and these Christians appear to be bearing good fruit and have been married a very long time. Question; does not the Bible teach that when we sin, we have an advocate, but that we have to repent of our sin and walk away from remaining in sin in order for God to truly have grounds for forgiving us? Next question; why do some Christians feel as if once you are divorced you can be in a new marriage because there is nothing you can do about the mess up of the old one, so now it is ok to marry someone else? Jesus said two things up there about divorce; who ever marries a divorced person (without qualifying it) commits adultery, and who ever divorces someone except for immorality and marries another commits adultery. Next question; how then is there any grounds to get remarried at all just because someone committed adultery? By His Grace, Tamara |

2 | Divorced Do Christians Get Remarried? | 1 Cor 6:9 | dscott1 | 205350 | ||
Please in all these cases donot leave out the grace of the father. For in Romans the 6th chapter it says that if would could have done this by ourselves then their would have been no need for Christ. For as with the prodical son it is also with the father he has made a way for us to come back to him which is Jesus. That wonderful blood. | ||||||
3 | Divorced Do Christians Get Remarried? | 1 Cor 6:9 | Val | 205402 | ||
Dear dscott1; Amen and Amen 1 Cor 6:11 And such some of you were [once]. But you were washed clean (purified by a complete atonement for sin and made free from the guilt of sin), and you were consecrated (set apart, hallowed), and you were justified [pronounced righteous, by trusting] in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and in the [Holy] Spirit of our God. |
