Subject: Divorced Do Christians Get Remarried? |
Bible Note: Jeff...the point I was making is that just b/c one partner is guilty of adultery, doesn't automatically give the other partner the right to divorce. If the guilty partner repents, asks for forgiveness, and indicates a desire to be faithful again, the "innocent" party should forgive and grant another opportunity for restoration of the marriage. However, if after considerable attempts to reconcile (following Matt 18:15-17) there's no repentance on the part of the guilty partner, then divorce is allowed as an option but not required. From my experience, the divorce usually is pursued by the guilty party Hope this helps--Dan |
