Subject: Biblical reasons for divorce? |
Bible Note: I do not believe 1 Cor. 7:12-15 and in particular verse 15 is okaying divorce with the implication that the righteous person can remarry. It simply says let the unbeliever go if they want to. Now if that person then commits adultery the vow of marriage is broken and divorce is warranted. |
