Subject: divorce is not always a sin. |
Bible Note: Thank you for your brief yet concise background on your use of the term "sanction". In that regard, I agree some distinction then can be made in regards to "approve" versus "permit". I agree with you and believe that this is not to say that he encourages or endorses or applauds it in every circumstance or under NO circumstance. But I believe God's will for some is different than others. I would interested to hear your thoughts on Ezra commanding the Isralites to divorce their pagan wives. Do you believe that was of God or Ezra? |
