2 | re-marriage after divorce | 1 Cor 7:15 | JesusInMyHrt | 88046 | ||
This is a tricky question. Did this affair occur before or after Salvation? Whatever we have done before receiving Christ, is wiped clean. Christ died as a ransom for our sins. If we are truly sorry for what we have done before receiving him and repent, those sins are forgiven which would make it alright in the eyes of God for us to marry. If the affair occurred by the believer after salvation then read Matthew Chapter 19:1-12. According to this chapter, the husband in this case did not know that his wife had an affair and he is free to marry if the unbelieving wife divorced him. On the other hand, if he did not know of the affair and he left the unbeliever, he would be committing adultary should he remarry. The bible states that God hates divorce and that even though a believer is married to an unbeliever, that is not reason for divorce if the unbeliever is willing to live with them. Read the entire 7th Chapter of 1 Corinthians, this should make this clearer to you. I pray that this helps you. Love In Christ.....Barb | ||||||
3 | are they commiting adultary | 1 Cor 7:15 | answers | 88507 | ||
dear Barb thank you for your in put. this whole story is actuarly quit confusing to me to, but if you go to "re-marriage yes or no" you will get the bigger picture,responding to your question was the persone saved or unsaved when this happend, i dont think so because know one can continue to sin when you Have the Lord Jesus in your life, i think she was lost, did not know the truth about salvation, her x husband went to church but mentaly abused her and did not live a Godly life at home he did not set a Godly example of who God really was and so she found it difficult to serve a man who said he had Jesus in his life and then verbuly abuse her for 20years.but the fact of the matter is she is saved now and understands what that means and also has a health fear of God.she is now re-married to a christian man who has a real relationship with the Lord Jesus, and this is his first time marraige, are they commiting adultary?. | ||||||
4 | are they commiting adultary | 1 Cor 7:15 | JesusInMyHrt | 88515 | ||
If she wasn't saved before her remarriage, then no, they are not committing adultary. People who are saved can and do sin. Salvation is not a cure all for sin. When we are saved we should be repentant of our sins, but that doesn't mean we won't make mistakes. I personally know of saved people who have had affairs. They have since repented, but still did it. Whatever sin we had before salvation is wiped clean as well as sins after Salvation that we are repentant for. If we ask the Lord for forgiveness for sins that we are repentant for, we are forgiven, but that doesn't mean we can keep doing it. If we have an affair after salvation, we know it is wrong and if we continue to do it we are not following the Lord, we are following the flesh. And should we divorce for reasons other than adultary, we are held responsible by God. And thus we are committing adultary even if we remarry. I'm happy for your friend :) it sounds like she found the Lord as well as a wonderful husband. I'm sure their union is blessed by God. | ||||||
