Subject: Should a divorced person remarry? |
Bible Note: George: Let me first say we should look at Mat 7:1 Judge not, that ye be not judged. Many more passages on this subject. Showing God is the only one to judge. 1.By saying, they ask the question shows their guilt or conviction. When maybe they are trully confused or in doubt. You are calling the intent of their heart. Judging? 2.When you stated that I should remove the mote and that I should read by Bible and that my ignorance is described in the NT. Do you know for sure? Or is this JUDGING again? I think only God knows my heart. Praise the Lord for he is judge. George you say you are just the messenger. OK. Where is the scripture say, that one must divorce to get out of sin. Or commit sin to get out of sin. Or is repentance getting out of sin? I think the later is the answer as I stated in last post. George there is continual sinning and committing sin. Let us look at this and show the difference. 1. Continual Sinning is when one sin's without regard to God. It could be a sin of this and a sin of that and a sin of something else. Or sinning the same sin. Total disobiedience to God's law or instructions and teachings. 2.Sin is one act of disobedience. Like your illustration of a child cheating. The child cheats. One sin. Two months later they cheat and sins one more sin. Like the Israelites did so often. Sinned and repented. And a gracious God forgave them. But when they started to continually sin and have no regard for God and there was no repentance. Judgement. A sin like many things are a triune. It separates us immediately, progressively, ultimately from the grace of God. Immediately-we lose God's favour Progressively-we lose God's commitment Ultimately-we are judged. At anytimme repentance will restore God's GRACE. George mediatate/think on this. Sex is not divorce and God never said sex was sinful, EVER! Satan loves us to think so instead of the real truth. For Satan wants us to think that sex is shameful when we do it. Satan wants us to think that the most holy thing between man and woman is sin. Because it represents a real truth of God's. So any confusion and Satan wins here. But, God looks at sex as a consumation of marriage. And that is why he hates fornication and idolatry. Because it is marriage and divorce in one simple act. And God hates divorce. Loves the marriage. Now hating divorce is because God hates what it illustrates. Afterall, a marriage (husband and wife) is an example of Christ and the Church. Eph 5:25 Has God forsaken you? Divorce is forsaking another. And that is why God hates divorce, for it is an example of God forsaking the church which God has never done nor wants to be accused of by ones actions. spend less time flaming/judging? and more time with the truth charley |
