Just taking a "poll". If a Christian is ALREADY married to a member of a cult, should they divorce them? | ||||||

dat, I wouldn't want to simply "give my opinion" on this matter, as I think the Bible is quite clear. In general, the admonition of 1 Cor.7:10-15 would apply: "But to the married I give instructions, not I, but the Lord, that the wife should not leave her husband(but if she does leave, she must remain unmarried, or else be reconciled to her husband), and that the husband should not divorce his wife. But to the rest I say, not the Lord, that if any brother has a wife who is an unbeliever, and she consents to live with him, he must not divorce her. And a woman who has an unbelieving husband, and he consents to live with her, she must not send her husband away. For the unbelieving husband is sanctified through his wife, and the unbelieving wife is sanctified through her believing husband; for otherwise your children are unclean, but now they are holy. Yet if the unbelieving one leaves, let him leave; the brother or the sister is not under bondage in such cases, but God has called us to peace." However, personally speaking, there are or could be specific situations that might warrant divorce. It is my feeling that those "circumstances" considered, divorce is ALWAYS the very last resort!

4 | Divorce Cult Member ? | 1 Cor 7:1 | Radioman2 | 87210 | ||
Show us the book, the chapter and the verse where the Bible plainly teaches that "if a believer is marryed (sic) to an unbeliever and the unbeliever prevents the believer from worshiping God that they are to seperate." You will find no such verse in the Bible. |

6 | Divorce Cult Member ? | 1 Cor 7:1 | Searcher56 | 87364 | ||
1 Corinthians 7:10-15 says the unbeliever must initiate the separation/ divorce, not the Christian. Moreover, Jesus said divorce for adultery was granted because of the HARDNESS OF THE HEART of the spouse who didn't commit adultery (Matt 19:3-10). Searcher |

This area can be interpreted two ways.Look again at verse 12, Paul said it was Him speeking and not the lord. Now reading the rest Paul leaves it up to the believer weather to stay or not. So if they decide not to stay with the unbeliever and depart, they are no longer bound. Say a Christian woman is married to man who she finds out later after they are married, is a satan worshiper,he likes to kill cats with his buddies on sunday night on the kitchen table and he tells his wife that she will not worship God any Longer. Then according to paul, she can devorce and not be bound. If shes no longer bound, there is no sin and she can remarry another Christian. | ||||||
