Subject: Divorced Do Christians Get Remarried? |
Bible Note: Dear Jeff, No my dear not on a crusade here at all, myabe I should just stop answering everyone who decides to post me with what I really am considering about the texts in mind here... No slight to anyone intended. If I have offended you let me know please... My aim is ever to divide the passages, not to point fingers at people, that is not what we are here for. If the grammar, or historical evidence does not support one's interpretation, why is addressing the grammar and history seen as pointing fingers? I am not here for that. Where in the text in I Cor. 7 does it say you are anything more than unbound, as in divorced? Where does it say you are free to remarry? Show me please, how the grammar allows for "when we take this in context"... Please show me how I have taken the group of verses that speak about being divorced, and about being unbound, and about Jesus speaking of God's original intention that the two are one flesh, and about God hating divorce, and about they are married until one of them is dead - and then show me how the counsel of scripture is saying on the whole that one is free to remarry? I agree with that folks who came to the Lord having gotten into an adulteress situation and how we can't expect them to separate... Now that there saved they are forgiven and should not be expected to separate. My questions were all centered around those that have been saved and then choose to remarry, entering into adultery because they feel that since somone wronged them they can move on, stay in the new relationship, ask for forgiveness about it and expect to find themselves in heaven. I can see we do not agree about this part of the issue, would you like me to stop? I will... Or would you like to examine the scriptures some more? Which is all I have been doing about this issue since answering posts, not disagreeing with folks, examining scriptures like we are suppossed to be doing... But if I have all knowledge but have not love, I am as a clanging cymbol... You said; "Every one takes this verse to mean..." Really? And you, perhaps, have some special insight and every one else is wrong? Please, I don't claim special insight, perhaps I should not have said everyone, and that might have been better? I am talking about the grammar there, please. Where does it say that being unbound, or loosed means you are free to remarry? Would you like to base your answer on Mathew 19? That is where some people would like to stand; that it means if one sins against you you can remarry... You said; Free to us, but at great cost. While we are not free to judge another's salvation, we can safely assume that a person who continues in a willful lifestyle of gross sin against God may not be saved at all, we can't rewrite the Scriptures to say what they don't say. I am not trying to rewirte scripture - I agree with you here about everything you are saying... We don't judge another's salvation - I keep trying to see how one can continue in sin and still be saved. This is something you have hit on here yourself. Please consider that I see the same thing, if a person is doing this they may not be saved. The counsel of scripture in the New Testament does absolutely teach that there is no sin that cannot be forgiven except one, blasphemy against the Holy Spirit. It also teaches that if you continue willfully in sin and just never turn around and stop, you may not be saved at all; I,II,III John, Hebrews 6, Mathew 7:21-23. There is wheat and there is chaff; it is not up to me to say who is and is not, I never claim to do so. I am here to try to divide these scripture please. Let me know if you need me to stop, and I will consider not answering anyone's elses concerns either... Have Blessed Sunday, Tamara |
