More About Divorce and Remarriage

More About Divorce and Remarriage

A Dear Missionary Grandma in the LORD Gave Me This Scripture:

♥♪TAKE MY LIFE AND LET IT BE ♥♪

1Co 7:10 And unto the married I command, yet not I, but the Lord, Let not the wife depart from her husband:

1Co 7:11 But and if she depart, let her remain unmarried, or be reconciled to her husband: and let not the husband put away his wife.

A Dear Friend in JESUS (Betty) writes:

But if we were divorced in the past, we need to ask the Lord for forgiveness and move on.....

That was what I once believed, as well.

But then, I heard an anointed teaching, (I truly believe this brother had GOD's Word)...that said, we repent of sins, and we are forgiven. Although a divorce is a sin, a first marriage is not a sin.

Since a marriage is not a sin to be repented of, how can we ask forgiveness of it?....or a 'blotting-out' of it?

Let me try to find a link to that teaching (it is on the web)...so you can see, too, what I believe GOD is saying.

I'll be interested in that link if you find it, Cammie. A marriage is not a sin, but what led a person to leave a marriage could be a sin - i.e. unfaithfulness, pride, greed, lust, etc. So I believe that needs to be repented of.

I also believe that people who are contemplating divorce should not take it lightly and should try to restore and reconcile the relationship. I believe that is what the Lord ultimately would want us to do. Unfortunately, we live in a world where people are selfish and want to put their needs first and they will have to account for their actions when judge by the Lord.
