Bible Question: Are you saying it is not adultery if there is no sex involved. He is not divorced but legally separated. Is he not doing anything wrong in the eyes of the biblr? |
Bible Answer: This man is 67 years old, has a 12 year old child by an exwife who was 27 years younger than him. The child is in his care. He is dating and lying about it. I know lying is a sin but is the fact he is dating and is not divorced a sin? I married him after the 3rd wife. Yes I was stupid. All he wanted was me to financially keep him up. He had been mad for 3 months because I wouldn't give him my Mercedes if I died first. I felt certain I would die first if he finally got the car along with the other things. We can not divorce until next April. What status does he put me in as far as remarrying or dating after the divorce? I loved him but I think he married me for his security. All 3 ex. wives are living and none have remarried other than the last one and she married twice and is now separated. |
