Subject: Can a divorced person remarry? |
Bible Note: Consider yourself forgiven. I find that interesting that that was a baited question directed toward me. Guess my discernment meter was on the fritz that day. You are correct, however, that there always exists a temptation to give the "knee-jerk" reaction myself. I have often found myself ready to leap at the keyboard to respond to an individual who posts something that really contradicts Scripture. Also, my wife can readily attest that egostism is something that I do indeed struggle with. God has blessed Christians with the truth, and often we have to struggle to remember that the truth did not origininate with our "super-brains," but rather that it is a revelation of God. Holding firmly to the truth is vital, but so is holding to it humbly. Thanks for the post! --Joe! |
