Bible Note: Thank you for your response. On previous posts I have noted how some Christians use 1 Cor 7:15 as justification for remarrying inspite of Mat 19:9. Specifically, they arbitrarily declare the Christian spouse initiating the "illegal" divorce as an "unbeliever". Then they apply 1 Cor 7:15 to justify the "innocent" spouse remarrying. In my humble opinion, this is simply "an end around play" to circumvent Mat 19:9 and 1 Cor 7:10-11. I'm not saying that those who do this are malicious in their intent. They truly believe that they are correct in their actions. The blue-print for marriage found in the Bible does work. Unfortunately, it is being adulterated by those who "should" know better but spread misinformation anyway. |
