Thanks for the feed back. My main question is "are there 4 biblical reasons to divorce and remarry?" Commenting on your comments, I believe I Cor.7:27-28 shed some light. I think this verse is settling some issue at Corinth as to whether a man should be married (sex going along with that, see 7:1, "It is good for a man not to touch a woman." NKJV, KJV and NASB.) So here Paul is saying (as I see it, I'm looking for correction if I'm wrong) that if a man is not married, that it is God's best to remain unmarried, but if he is married, it is also God's best to stay married. If a man is divorced biblical (i.e because of fornication, death, desertion, or their past is under the blood.), Paul (through the Holy Spirit) gives comfort to them. (vs.28 "If you do marry, you have not sinned." NKJV) "Trouble in the flesh" is said of by Matthew Henery: "Marrying is not in itself a sin, but marrying at that time was likely to bring inconvenience upon them, and add to the calamities of the times; and therefore he thought it advisable and expedient that such as could contain should refrain from it; but adds that he would not lay celibacy (Note: I think your word "eunich", is the same as "eunuch", which is a castrated male [websters 1828], did you mean "celibacy" of paul?) on them as a yoke, nor by seeming to urge it too far, draw them into any snare..." -Matthew Henery Acts-Rev 6th vol. pg436 Ok I probably said to much already, so let me know whether or not I'm off my rockers to believe 4 reasons for divorce and remarriage.
