Bible Answer: Scripture ... Due 24:1-4; Mat 19:4-9; Mar 10:2-10; 1Co 7:10-16; 2Co 5:17 ... God's day to you, Ann, and welcome to the SBF, This question has been brought up before, usually it is not about those who get divorced before they became Christinas. Some say you are free to remarry, since you weren't a Christian when you were divorced, and he left me and also started the divorce procedings. Now for Chritians ... In Matthew 19:4-9 divorce was granted because the hardness of the heart (Due 24:1-4). When Paul addressed the issue (1Co 7:10-16), he qualified it as his view, not the Lord's (vs 12) ... and divorce was permitted if the spouse was not a believer and they start left and they filed for divorce ... then the Christian was free to marry. Divorce for Chritians is permitted for only these two reasons ... some say only the latter ... and some may exclude the latter, since it was just Paul's view ... some even say there is no reason. Hope you sat around to share and learn, Searcher |
