I completely agree! I just don’t understand why people don’t see with their own eyes what Jesus clearly said in the scriptures. Lustful hearts will only see what they want to see. Instead of getting on their knees and fiercely praying for their marriage, they lustfully divorces and seek sexual pleasure elsewhere

This sermon was done some years ago, never would I have thought at that time that the years later it would be for me to hear from the Lord. Sadly, my pastor does not have the courage to correct people in our congregation and in his family regarding the sins that they do. I myself corrected a brother who was told by our pastor not to worry about it; and the it was that he was living in fornication with a long time girlfriend: I could not sit there as he told me what the pastor had said to him. It burned within my soul the scriptural truth and I told him how wrong it was and gave him scripture to read. Whether he did read it and whether he will obey the scriptures is on him. I appreciate this Pastor I have been listening to and that he also has the true version of the Bible to confer with and to declare the truth of what God truly says to mankind. I myself am going through a very emotional time as a born-again Christian, as my husband left me in July of 2021, to live with a woman he has been committing adultery with. She too is an adulterer as she is going through a divorce from her second husband. In the 7 months I have been dealing with this horrible sin, I have put a call in to a lawyer for a divorce. I have sought out many scriptures in the Bible concerning marriage and divorce, there are many. But I am a truth seeker, and I have asked God to lead me to all truth so I can make the right decision and not sin against God. I do believe the Lord has used this preacher today May 20th 2022, for me to hear as I will not he told all the truth from my church. I praise God Almighty for this wonderful truth of his and for his word from his true Bible. I hope and pray that many others who are going through this sad tragic incident of divorce and broken marriages will find great consolation from the Lord God.

To add on to the comment I made about my broken marriage, I just want to add that my husband told me a couple years ago that it was late on his heart that he had "no repentance". I remember him getting angry at that conviction, but doing nothing about it. The woman he is with now knows he is married, and does not care that he is married, and she is unsaved. My so-called husband said he witnessed to her and she does not want to listen or believe. And I gave her a "tract" regarding salvation and the truth about God's law as she says she is now "into" Judaism.

fornication noun for·ni·ca·tion | \ ˌfȯr-nə-ˈkā-shən \ Definition of fornication : consensual (see CONSENSUAL sense 2) sexual intercourse between two persons not married to each other What’s the difference between adultery and fornication? In case you were wondering, the words adultery and adult are not etymologically related (in other words, adultery didn’t grow out of adult in the way that punditry grew out of pundit). Although both words come from Latin and share the same first five letters, adultery is from adulterāre (“to pollute, defile, commit adultery”), a word formed ultimately from the Latin elements ad- “to, near” and alter“other.” English adult comes from adultus, which is the past participle of the Latin word adolescere (“to grow up”). In legal use there is a difference between adultery and fornication. Adultery is only used when at least one of the parties involved (either male or female) is married, whereas fornication may be used to describe two people who are unmarried (to each other or anyone else) engaging in consensual sexual intercourse. adultery noun adul·tery | \ ə-ˈdəl-t(ə-)rē \ plural adulteries Definition of adultery : voluntary sexual intercourse between a married person and someone other than that person's current spouse or partner adultery noun adul·tery | \ ə-ˈdəl-tə-rē\ Legal Definition of adultery : voluntary sexual activity (as sexual intercourse) between a married man and someone other than his wife or between a married woman and someone other than her husband (Source: Webster's Dictionary)

Not many see this. The Lord showed me too that there is NO ESCAPE clause in Marriage it is till death parts one another. In Mathew it is speaking specifically of the betrothal period before a Jewish wedding and if one or the other is found unfaithful in that betrothal period before marriage then this is the time, if unfaithfulness is found then that they then may walk away and not committ to marriage. So if we looked at today the "engagement" period if unfaithfulness is found then one may decide to release from the marital covenant.

No divorce - separation only with view to reconciliation (must forgive) , if possible. Otherwise, stay as eunuch for the kingdom! The Lord laid it on my heart just after I became a Christian that my first legitimate spouse was my biblical one - not the second who I had already divorced from before salvation. There is so much worldliness in the church allowing the laws (man's) to define what is right/wrong, justified. We as God's children obey His commandments!

I divorced my husband 2 years after he left and entered into a relationship while still married to me. He is still with her. I’ve stayed single. I’m still confused after this teaching because some preachers although not many say I’m bound to him till he dies and it’s scriptural from what I see.

At around the 17-18 minute mark, he gets it wrong when he says there is one out- one exception for remarriage. Except for fornication is only for those who have an engagement to be married and the person cheats on you. Once a marriage is made with public vows, it is permanent until death. Divorce + remarriage + living spouse = ongoing adultery.

The divorce and remarriage for adultery doctrine is based solely on the supposed guilt of the wife in Matthew 5:32 and 19:9. However, the wife, in the above scriptures, is clearly not guilty of fornication because the Jews (that Jesus was speaking to) were still living under the law, and if fornication was discovered, there was a moral obligation to report the offender according to Deuteronomy 22:13-24. The wife, who would have been found guilty of fornication, was subsequently stoned to death, according to the law, which had still governed the Jews up until Christ's death on the cross. The same for a woman caught in adultery, according to Leviticus 20:10. How could a wife, guilty of fornication, or adultery, under the law of Moses, be given a writing of divorcement and be caused to commit adultery with whosoever marries her, that is divorced? Jesus is clear, in these examples, that the wife is not guilty of fornication, but is still caused to commit adultery if she marries another man now that she is divorced. This is the only way that Matthew 5:31-32, and Matthew 19:9 keep harmony with Romans 7:2-3, and 1 Corinthians 7:39. Unlike the synoptic gospels of Mark and Luke, which were written to evangelize the Gentiles, Matthew was written to the Jews, and has of 24 characteristics that identify it as intended for the house of Israel. The ancient Jews called the betrothed (engaged) "husband" and "wife" according to Deuteronomy 22:23-24, Matthew 1:18-25, and Luke 2:5-7. Deuteronomy 24:1-4 (Moses's precept of divorce and remarriage) was never for fornication or adultery. Allowing those guilty of fornication and adultery to remain living and become a prospect for remarriage was against the law of Moses in Deuteronomy 22:13-24 and Leviticus 20:10, which commanded that those who were found guilty of fornication and adultery be put away from Israel, and stoned to death. The law of Moses was not given to the world, only to the Jews. From the exodus, to Christ's death on the cross, the law of Moses governed the Jewish people. Christ's death on the cross caused the Jews to become dead to the law of Moses, so they could be joined to Christ under a New Covenant. This is what Jesus's fulfillment of the law of Moses, including Deuteronomy 24:1-4 (Moses's precept of divorce and remarriage), means. Paul gave several warnings to Christian believers against keeping the ordinances of law of Moses as justification, over following Christ and his commands under the New Covenant with Christ. Keeping the ordinances of the law is no longer possible, for Israel, and that is why Christ prophesied that the temple would be destroyed. These scriptures make it clear that if you choose the law over Christ, that you must keep the whole law: Romans 7:4, Galatians 3:1-9, Galatians 3:10-29, Galatians 4:1-7, Galatians 4:21-31, and Galatians 5:1-15. Being unequally yoked to unbelievers is not a cause for divorce, once two become one-flesh in a covenant of marriage, according to 1 Corinthians 7:12-14. Many one-flesh covenant marriages between unbelievers are recognized by God in the scriptures, most notably the marriage covenants between Herodias and King Herod's brother Philip, Potiphar and his wife, Ahab and Jezebel, and Ruth to her deceased husband Mahlon by Boaz when he took her to be his wife. Some are teaching that 1 Corinthians 7:15 implies that those who are abandoned, by an unbelieving spouse, are "no longer bound" in a one-flesh covenant of marriage. The reason this is in conflict is due to the way some translations word it, which gives it an entirely different meaning, and context. 1 Corinthians 7:15, says, "But if the unbelieving partner separates, let it be so. In such cases the brother or sister is not enslaved. God has called you to peace." As you can see, the actual scripture says "not enslaved" which means that the husband or wife is not enslaved to sin with the unbelieving spouse, and is free to worship Christ in peace. Subsequent translations have changed the words to imply that they nullify the marriage covenant, which is not at all the case. The issue that this creates is with 1 Corinthians 7:10-11, which says, "10To the married I give this command (not I, but the Lord): A wife must not separate from her husband. 11But if she does, she must remain unmarried or else be reconciled to her husband. And a husband must not divorce his wife." As you can see, those who claim 1 Corinthians 7:15 shows the Apostle Paul giving those who are abandoned permission to remarry, do not understand the command that Christ gives is to an abandoned husband, in 1 Corinthians 7:11, and that he "must not divorce" his wife, and his wife is commanded to "remain unmarried or else be reconciled" to her husband. The theory that 1 Corinthians 7:15 nullifies two as being one-flesh, due to one's unbelief, puts the Apostle Paul directly at odds with Christ, and himself, by implying that Paul has issued an opposing command to verses 10-14 in verse 15. Some also teach that 1 Corinthians 7:27-28 is referring to both divorced men and virgin women, and not exclusively to men and women (virgins) who have never been married. This has been falsely taught for some time in churches as referring to anyone who is not currently in a marriage, which, for them, also includes those who are divorced. This is a very false assumption, and puts these verses in a different context, that is at odds with both the teachings of Christ and the apostle Paul. We see Paul refer to virgins, which signifies the unmarried who have never before been wed, which is the proper context here. We see Paul saying clearly that it is good for virgins, which is also speaking to never before wed men here, "that it is good for a man so to be." He goes on to say, "Art thou bound unto a wife? seek not to be loosed. Art thou loosed from a wife? seek not a wife." Who is he referring to here? Men who, like himself, have never married. The word "bound", in these verses, is a clear reference to betrothal (engagement) and not to a one-flesh covenant of marriage. The ancient Jews were considered bound as husband and wife during the betrothal (espousal/engagement) before becoming one-flesh in a covenant of marriage, through consummation. This is affirmed by the context of the term "bound" seen in Numbers 30:14-16. The Jewish couples in ancient Israel, who were betrothed (engaged) were also bound together until death, either by execution for fornication, or by other causes. Then Paul says, "But and if thou marry, thou has not sinned", which is who? The men who had never married in the congregation at Corinth. So he begins with verses 25-26 speaking exclusively to men that have never married. Paul then says, "and if a virgin marry, she hath not sinned", which is speaking directly in regard to virgin women who have never been married, within the congregation, not divorced women. Notice that verse 34 says, "There is difference also between a wife and a virgin. The unmarried woman careth for the things of the Lord, that she may be holy both in body and in spirit: but she that is married careth for the things of the world, how she may please her husband." Paul speaks plainly when he says "there is a difference between a wife and a virgin." Paul goes on to say, "But if any man think that he behaveth himself uncomely toward his virgin, if she pass the flower of her age, and need so require, let him do what he will, he sinneth not: let them marry." This is speaking of a virgin who has become of age to bear children when it says, "let them marry." This is a clear command, to a single man, who has taken a virgin to be his wife. Paul then says, "Nevertheless he that standeth stedfast in his heart, having no necessity, but hath power over his own will, and hath so decreed in his heart that he will keep his virgin, doeth well." This is referring again to the single man who decides it is better not to marry, but to stay betrothed (engaged), under the present distress, by saying that he "hath so decreed in his heart that he will keep his virgin." Paul then says, "So then he that giveth her in marriage doeth well; but he that giveth her not in marriage doeth better", which again means single men, in the congregation, who have betrothed a wife, do well if they marry, and those who choose not to marry their virgin brides do better, under the current climate. For more proper context of the word "bound", let's look further down in this chapter to verse 39, which says, "39The wife is bound by the law as long as her husband liveth; but if her husband be dead, she is at liberty to be married to whom she will; only in the Lord" (1 Corinthians 7:39). For so long, these scriptures, between verses 25-38, have been twisted and used to enable divorce and remarriage, by wayward churches and teachers, and have caused many to stumble and to be trapped in unscriptural unions. The use of the woman at the well, in regard to marriage, falsely implies that Christ was endorsing remarriage after a divorce. This teaching is in defiance of Matthew 22:23-28, which shows a woman who had been widowed seven times, and entered into each subsequent marriage without any scriptural conflicts with God's law of marriage (one-flesh covenant) seen in Genesis 2:23-24. Mark 10:1-12 and Matthew 19:1-12 both record Christ's teaching that day beyond the Jordan. There is no mention of the words "fornication", "writing of divorcement", or "divorced" in Mark's Gospel because Mark was not written to the Jews (as Matthew's Gospel was), but to evangelize the Romans, and likewise Luke to evangelize the Greeks, who had no knowledge of the law of Moses in Deuteronomy 22 or Deuteronomy 24. All of these facts draw a clear understanding that remarriage after a divorce, under the New Covenant with Christ, is a scripturally false and baseless teaching. Please use wisdom when living in any situation against what the scriptures command.

What if 8 years later, she is saved, but he isn’t…. she tries again out of obligation to their son, tells the man he needs to repent, so he puts her out again. Also, during the “marriage” she was kicked out multiple times and officers were involved numerous times and told her to not come back.

@@bailey1493 So sorry to hear this. Marriage is a very serious matter as God loves the church, the Bride of Christ. We are told in the Word about the seriousness of making vows to God and not breaking them. So we need to be very careful who choose to marry. If an unbeliever, we do not have God's wisdom in the matter and go our own way, often to our detriment as many would testify. Once we come to Jesus we know what the Word says and in the situation you mention, we can pray the unsaved spouse will get saved even though we may have even divorced them (nothing is impossible with God as many can vouch for. But 1 Corinthians 7 clearly says, v10,11 if the spouse does depart, do not divorce but remain single . If the husband wants a divorce there's nothing one can do to stop him. v12 tells us about the saved spouse whose spouse decides/wishes to leave. One cannot stop them either and if they decide to divorce or go off, let them. We are called to 'peace'. One day, he/she may just come to repentance, salvation and in some circumstances have the legitimate first marriage restored. If this is you or someone else you know, sounds like you tried your utmost despite all the problems and treatment. God gives us the grace needed for whatever situation we are in as I can so very much testify, being divorced from my second husband for nearly 32 years now! This is what I believe from my understanding/study of the scripture and there is so much to understand on this hot topic of marriage/divorce etc.

Thank you preacher for your wonderful sermon. You have brought out the truth as it is given in the Bible, however you have not touched on abandonment and abuse. These days spouses can work in different places,either abroad or even overseas. What happens when one spouse goes away and decides not to come back,both believers, both Christians, 1 year,2 years,5 years,10 years ,20 years....what should the remaining spouse do ? Apostle Paul said a wife must not depart from her husband,if she does,she must come back,what if she doesn't come back,is the husband still bound in such a marital relationship ? A spouse theatens you with death everytime you have misunderstandings, even to the extend of holding a knife at you ,must you wait until she stabs you ,for you to know that the relationship is untannable,that if one would have survived the incident.

(1) By understanding this issue from a chronological perspective we can determine that it was many years after Christ teaching on this matter that the Apostle Paul (while addressing questions submitted to him by the church of Corinth / 1 Cor. 7:1) restricted remarriage for the first time and only under one of the circumstances he enumerates (v. 11). This is the only remarriage restriction following divorce and it proves that prohibiting remarriage is unique in God’s Word. That’s why it’s important to understand biblical facts chronologically (and NOT randomly). That way biblical precedents reveals that keeping people out of marriage was NOT God’s will either. Marriage is the right place for sexual expression and Paul reveals that those formerly married should remarry instead of burn with passion (1 Cor. 7:8, 9). (2) Some Pastors have put the “horse before the cart” (so to speak) chronologically by reading Paul’s prohibition as if Jesus had already prohibited remarriage. Thus they are theorizing that “remarriage was prohibited” by Jesus when in fact it was not. Believing that rearranges the chronology about when and to what extent remarriage was actually prohibited in God’s Word. It subverts a persons perspective by exchanging the uniqueness of prohibiting remarriage with that of a uniform prohibition. In the New Testament we don’t actually have one exception for remarriage (as some suggest), we only have one exception for prohibiting remarriage. (3) While the Church should be fully involved in preserving marriages, we should be very careful about coercing those divorced into a life of perpetual singleness. Formerly married Christians have their sexual struggles and 1 Cor 7:8,9 gives them instruction as to what to do. It is best to read those verses in light of the first 7 verses that precede it. (4) It is worth noting that when Jesus’ teaching is paralleled with the writings of Moses neither men criticize remarriage or blame the innocent party of divorce for the adultery it causes them to commit. Jesus actually revealed that men who insisted on the right to put away their wives were culpable (Matthew 5:32 "causeth her to commit adultery"). The woman divorced in this case scenario was allowed to remarry and was NOT blamed for the ensuing adultery. Jesus uniquely revealed that this adultery was distinct from that of the law and that culpability did NOT reside with her (the one repudiated). (5) In the Patriarchal society of Israel a man was not allowed to remarry his ex-wife if in the intervening time she remarried. That’s because he caused her to be defiled by releasing her with the right of remarriage (Deut. 24:2,4). The defilement that ensued (like the adultery of Jesus’ teaching) was the inadvertent consequence of violating an exclusive obligation established by the first marriage as God designed from the origin. This way of committing adultery was uniquely different from that which was punished. (6) While most of Jesus' teaching centers around the fact that men in Israel's Patriarchal society controlled divorce, it is worth noting that He did give a case scenario in the event the wife does the divorcing (Mark 10:12). This scenario helps men repudiated by their wives (particularly in today's culture) understand that they are not always at fault for the divorce or culpable for violating sexual exclusivity when remarried. It is also note worthy that the Apostle Paul gives a New Testament circumstance where the believer is emancipated of all marital obligation. Thus there is NO residual obligations to violate. (7) In 1 Cor.7:12-15 the Apostle Paul emancipates New Testament believers who are repudiated by unbelievers. This absolves believers from further obligations to the marriage. Christians experience absolution if they are repudiated by an unbeliever. This exemption did not previously exist under the Old Testament, thus causing one to commit adultery by violating an exclusive obligation intrinsic to marriage. (8) Because my motive for defending marriage after divorce is often misunderstood, I’d like to affirm that believers should strive to honor first marriages. Love your spouse in difficult times and don’t let your own weaknesses be the reason your marriage fails. God did create marriage for life, so do all within your power to make that happen. (9) In summary of Jesus' teaching on divorce, the question the Pharisees ask Jesus (Matt. 19:3) trivialized marriage and perceived divorce as inconsequential. Therefore Jesus revealed the consequence caused by the first marriage ending prematurely. If they had remained married this way of committing adultery would not occur (which was the point Jesus was making). Divorce causes the paradox Christians grapple with because it is antithetical to God’s creative design for marriage (Matthew 19:4-6, 8b). From the concession of divorce onward the second marriage (which was graciously allowed under the law) inadvertently violated an exclusive obligation set forth by the former. Thus causing the adultery the way Jesus described. An inadvertent adultery caused by the first marriage not being sustained. (10) It's necessary to understand Jesus and Moses in an agreeable fashion so that Christians don't make their teaching on this issue contradict. When we see the big picture of interpreting them in harmony we understand that divorce and remarriage in God's Word are real and effective events that changed marital status and obligations from the former spouse to the present. Pastors who teach that those remarried should divorce their present spouse has come to that conclusion by believing the "indissoluble marriage" theory, thus imagining that the first marriage survived divorce. That’s NOT what Jesus taught!! Divorcing your current spouse causes sin, NOT repentance. You MUST believe what Jesus actually said within it's original CONTEXT so that you can rightly divide the Word of Truth. Blessing

Salvation is a still a mystery. How many times you physically or how many wives you physically does not matter. What matters most is the spiritual marriage. God should be the centre of your love and adoration. Not his wife or wives. Jacob had two wifes and two more concubines. The 12 sons all came from 4 different women. And yet God pronounce Jacob as a of Godly heart. The truth about marriage is that there's no marriage in heaven. What matters is that all believers must marry in the spirit and not only in a physical sense. God is still a mystery and his salvation plan is also a mystery. Look at the thief on the cross, the life of Issac and Jacob. There's an underlying truth here. Yes what truth is revealed to us is for ouyr edification but those that is not revealed belongs to the of Mystery. Jacob married 4 wives .Define wifes and one night stands. Jacob never had prostitutes but legitimate wifes and Jacob is still counted righteous...what do say...marriage in the spirit is what matters most.

This guy drops the ball on the exception clause. Fornication in Mathew 5:32/19:9 is referring to the betrothal period. And a couple in a covenant marriage DO NOT commit Fornication when they cheat or remarry. They commit Adultery. 2 separate words with different meanings. That is why no exception is found in Luke 16:18, Mark 10:11-12, 1 Cor. 7, Romans 7:1-3

Prince Darius and company- You both are wrong. Porneia is the greek word for fornication = sexual inmorality in general. That include incest, bestiality, homosexuality and adultery. This crimes were punished by death by the Mosaic law. Same for the betrothal period. The jewish custome for marriage was like this: betrothal period (as a civil marriage) was a legally bonding law and the two were considered married except they didnt have sex until one year later when the second part of the ceremony was celebrate. 1) Was Jesus speaking of the betrothal period ONLY? As Matthew was written mostly for Jews? 2) Was Jesus talking about sexual inmorality in general? Including adultery, incest, bestuality and homosexuality as well? Those are the 2 views discussed on this topic. Do your homework!

Jesus stated it is adultery to look at someone with lust. Jesus never stated the marital status of the person looking with lust. So even single people could be committing this form of adultery. Not the traditional thought of adultery but adultery none the less according to Jesus. So could we then securely say that adultery is any deviation of one man one woman for life? To anyone throwing stones refer to the above and see if you have met the criteria of adulterer. Did the stone suddenly get heavier? Now the term one flesh many assume it is upon consumation. How about if you are not married? Have you become one flesh, just committed adultery, fornicate, or possibly all of the above. How does a couple become one flesh? You make vows and suddenly you are one flesh? One flesh would certainly make it impossible to separate or could one flesh mean when the couple have children? Biology would certainly bear out the latter. Would it not be very possible an unmarried couple that has children are one flesh? If one were to state that all sexual contact constitutes one flesh would they not be then married to their first mate? What if they had more than one partner would they be polygamous and most certainly adulterous? No one says anything about never officially married that may fall into one of the one flesh categories and decides to get married. Must be okay to be an adulterer, fornicators, polygamous just so you didn't make it official. Now comes a person from a failed marriage and any chance of having another relationship is adultery and perpetual. They can't repent and move forward after their sins have been forgiven and must wait till their eggs are unscrambled. Interesting. Now a divorced person gets married again and is informed they are in a adulterous marriage. They choose to listen to possibly previous adulterers and get divorced again. Wait a minute some of them are possibly one flesh married and then got married making them adulterous polygamous and in judgement of someone who officially divorced. Interesting how complicated it gets when you can't repent and move on.

AJ Louviere fornication is an English word. If we’re going to split hairs we’re going to use the original language. So not fornication, but harlotry is the best translation is the word according to my concordance and is accurate to the Koine Greek, and Aramaic. You may not like it, but that’s the word. And yes if she is to be properly divorced it must be for sexual immorality, or harlotry, not adultery. Because if he’d inadvertently married a close kin, it might be incest for them to remain together, another way to say sexually immoral. Neither one is at fault necessarily, but it’s still sexually immoral. Thus requiring divorce. This occurred more often in the ancient world. Additionally if she was a harlot, he could put her away. My mother is a good example she’s been married 4 times, and slept around on every single one of them. 1 killed himself, 1 died, two she divorced. She could be considered a harlot. So yes she might be guilty of porniea, and she might not have willfully done anything wrong, if the husband made an accusation of incest. Both can be true at the same time. Just as it’s true that even in your limited reasoning a woman can be defiled by her father raping her, or a man in my case. She is therefore no longer a virgin. She has done nothing committed no crime, yet a man can still consider her defiled. Further let’s say a man avoids marriage with such a woman who’s committed no crime against him or her agreement to marry him, how is the adulterer any less defiled by having willful sex with someone they aren’t married to? You never answer that question. You’ll talk about how the woman who remarried is defiled, but not the defilement of the unrepentant adulterer. Why are you afraid to answer my questions? I suppose they are too difficult.

Nowhere does Jesus or any disciple tell those married to another to divorce to repent. 3. Most important God is holy and immutable . This is important! 4. Divorce and marriage to another is addressed in deuteronomy24. 5. Jesus was the only one that could fulfill the law. 6. Jesus did not come to change the law not one jot or tittle. 7. Jesus is and was a Jew that adhered to the law. 8. When Jesus addressed divorce and marriage to another he explained the consequences of these actions to the pharisees. 9. The is no taking the law to a higher standard as God is holy and immutable. Not here to tell people what to do just to give perspectives that are left out of those that promote DTR.

Christendom is a total wreck especially where marriage is concerned. Let's say a secular or nominally christian person gets badly hurt by their first spouse and divorces. Then they turn their heart to Christ earnestly and fervently for the rest of their lives. They meet someone and wish to remarry, raise kids in the church and help pick up the pieces of our shattered culture. But there are some who would say: "Too bad, you have to be celibate forever." Is that a message of grace, renewal and healing, or a message of condemnation?

Some are tying to say that fornication ("porneia" in greek) only applies to the unmarried, and that Jesus (Mat 5:32) was talking to those yet to be married. Here is why that is not true. The word for porneia in it's meaning (greek, as our new testament is translated) does not imply (a single, one, not married, or the like). Porneia covers homosexual, heterosexual, beastiality, incest, adultery, pedophilia, it is a generic word used for sexual misconduct. In Rev 2:20-22 Adultery falls under the category of sexual immorality "porneia". In 1 Cor 5:1 there is adultery but the bible uses "porneia". Just because adultery has it's own Greek definition does not mean it can't be included under fornication "porneia". That's like saying lust has it's own Greek definition but can't fall under the category of sin.

And he who marries her commits adultery." Matthew 5:31-32 (TLB) Fornication was indeed sexual intercourse before marriage, ie, "FORNICATION". Which word not have included ADULTERY. For under the same law, ADULTERERS would have been STONED to death.

If you base your interpretations of Yeshua's and Rabbi Shaul's words from the NT alone, you are building on the wrong foundation. Everything those men taught came from the Torah, God's Instructions to His children on how to worship God, live, and treat each other AFTER coming into His Family. There is only ONE instruction on divorce and remarriage in Torah, Deut 24:1-4. THERE IS NO SIN OF DIVORCE. The sin, the abomination to God, is for a person to REMARRY the SAME person after being divorced from that person. Yeshua was clarifying how to walk out Torah in Matthew; He was speaking to the religious leaders who wanted to know if He subscribed to the school of Hillel or the school of Shammai who had different ideas of what an "indecency" was from the Deut. passage. (BTW, this canNOT be adultery as the punishment for adultery was death.) When you all quote Paul from Corinthians you are forgetting that's HIS ideas, NOT Torah, which he so CLEARLY delineates at the beginning of the passage! Those saying divorce is a sin and those saying you can't remarry are being just like the pharisees of Yeshua's day putting a non-Biblical burden on the people, ie the Traditions of Men Yeshua so vehemently fought against.

The Pharisees posed a legal question to Jesus (Matthew 19:3. Mark 10:2). Instead of getting caught up in the legal argument of that time, Jesus circumvented that argument by appealing to how it was suppose to be. He appealed to God’s creative design for marriage (Matthew 19:4-6, 8b). Ideally and by God’s design marriage was to be lifelong, realistically (because of hard hearts) it was allowed to prematurely end. Accepting the tension that creates is part of understanding this issue. Jesus words were applicable to whom He was speaking. He was speaking to His covenant people Israel. When contextually understood He was conveying to them the inadvertent consequence of the divorce concession. This He did to dissuade them from putting away their wives. When Jesus speaks to divorce and remarriage He is speaking of them as effective events (as all biblical writers do). The answer Jesus gave to the Pharisees question (Matthew 19:3, Mark 10:2) was derived from God’s original creative design for marriage (Matthew 19:4-6,8b), not the law of Moses. We should understand Moses and Jesus congruous, not as one opposed to the other. Jesus’ teaching on this issue is pointing out to His covenant people that allowing divorce was not without it’s casualty. Allowing marriages to end violates (in principle) God’s lifelong creative design. Moses allowed divorce primarily because of women caught up in domestic conflict, it was a mercy for them. Subsequently he didn’t force them into a life of singleness because they were put away, he allowed them to remarry. Having a husband allowed them to have the provisions they would need, so remarriage was a gracious concession also (Deut. 24:4). It’s imperative we understand that Jesus is not speaking negatively against divorce as a concession, but rather negatively about the reason divorce needed to be conceded. The concession itself was not a mistake on Moses part as some suggest. Jesus was not criticizing Moses, He was being critical of that which prompted the need for the concession. Jesus blatantly reveal to the Pharisees that the reason for the concession was an accommodation of Israel’s hard heart (Matthew 19:8). Hard hearts ultimately were the cause of marriages being terminated which in turn caused the exclusivity of the one-flesh union to be transgressed. This causes the adultery the way Jesus described. Always read God’s Word with the understanding that Moses didn’t contradict Jesus or Jesus didn’t contradict Paul. Read God’s Word with a congruous understanding of all who spoke to this issue. Both Jesus and Paul gave extenuating circumstances when they spoke to this issue. Jesus as He addressed His covenant people Israel told them “except for fornication” (Matthew 19:9) which is a comprehensive word for illicit sex. Paul speaking to the Church stated that a believer is not under bondage if the unbelieving spouse repudiates the marriage (1 Cor. 7:15). Paul addressed different circumstances throughout chapter 7. He didn’t give a one size fits all conclusion for every situation. Verses 10 and 11 address a believer married to a believer. Paul then has a change of address in verse 12 (something others conveniently leave out). There he speaks to a situation were a believer is or was married to an unbeliever. If an unbeliever repudiates the marriage, the believer is no longer under bondage. “no longer under bondage” is an explicit phrase the speaks of emancipation. They are free from former obligations. Don’t let anyone convince you that Paul gave a “one size fits all” conclusion in verses 10 and 11 when in fact he spoke to different situations.

(Matthew 1:18-25) Remember Mary was espoused to Joseph and the engagement was so binding as to call her his wife. They had not taken their vows yet which is when the marriage is official. Joseph was going to put her away for what looked like fornication but was told to take her as his wife. Matthew 19:9 Jesus says except for the cause of fornication can a man put away his wife. Notice in the verse the words fornication and adultery. They are not the same thing. The word for fornication is porneia which means harlotry. This is sex outside of marriage. The word for adultery is moichao which is to commit adultery. For the cause of adultery you cannot put away your wife, but only for the cause of fornication in the engagement period. Many would ask well if I got married before I became a Christian does God honor that as a marriage? Yes. The Bible speaks in 1 Corinthians 7 about staying with the unbelieving spouse and if the unbelieving spouse wants to depart, then let them depart. 1 Corinthians 7:39 says the wife is bound by the law as long as her spouse is alive. Marriage is honorable even among the heathen. Hebrews 13:4 says marriage is honourable in all. If you took vows to marry someone being unsaved or saved then you are married to that person until death do you part. If you remarry and are not a widow then you are in adultery. 1 Corinthians 6:9 says that no adulterer will inherit eternal life. I used to have some wrong views about this topic but thanks be to God for leading me in the light of His Word. This teaching of divorce and remarriage is encouraging disobedience to God's Word and many will go to hell as adulterers. My sincere desire is for people to know God, walk in obedience to His Word, and make it to heaven.

Lorenzo Adamson moichao is the word for adultery. It is different than porneia which means harlotry. The Bible is very specific on the words used as It is all inspired.

Scripture clearly teaches anyone who divorces and remarries while their covenant spouse is still living (with the exception of fornication) is an adulterer or adulteress (Matthew 5:31-32; Matthew 19:3-9; Mark 10:2-12; Luke 16:18; Romans 7:2-3; 1 Corinthians 7:10-15; 1 Corinthians 7:39). Additionally, scripture clearly teaches in order to receive God's mercy one must repent or they won't inherit the kingdom of Heaven (1 Corinthians 6:9-10; Luke 13:3). God saves anyone who genuinely repents. Repentance has two elements: Confessing AND forsaking our sins. Proverbs 28:13, says: "He who covers his sins will not prosper, but whoever confesses AND forsakes them will have mercy." Remaining in an adulterous remarriage is not repentance. The liar has to repent and stop lying; the thief has to repent and stop stealing; the homosexuals have to repent and stop committing homosexual acts; and the adulterers and adulteresses (including those in adulterous remarriages) must repent and stop committing adultery. Sharing the scriptural truth about divorce and remarriage infuriates people who are supposed to be followers of Christ. Jesus's words regarding this issue anger his alleged followers like no other topic. Perhaps, it's time to obey Jesus Christ, and to begin believing He means what He says. Most importantly, ALL sins are unforgivable without repentance...including remaining in adulterous remarriages. According to the clear, easy to understand words of scripture: Jesus most definitely sends unrepentant adulterers and adulteresses to hell.

You could do the same thing with "Matthew 5:27-30 27 “You have heard that it was said, ‘You shall not commit adultery.’ 28 But I say to you that everyone who looks at a woman with lustful intent has already committed adultery with her in his heart. 29 If your right eye causes you to sin, tear it out and throw it away. For it is better that you lose one of your members than that your whole body be thrown into hell. 30 And if your right hand causes you to sin, cut it off and throw it away. For it is better that you lose one of your members than that your whole body go into hell. " If this is permanently unforgivable sin as well, then literally nobody is going to heaven. Maybe he's trying to get a point across rather than condemning us with law. He came to forgive not to condemn. If it isn't possible for someone to have a fresh start after a difficult past, what was the point of Christ's sacrifice? I really think this sort of teaching tragically misses the point and may create more suffering in a world that is already suffering too much.

Nobody ever wants to reconcile this teaching with the verse in Deuteronomy where it says that the husband cannot take back the first wife once she's been married again. If your interpretation of scripture does not agree with the whole Bible then you probably need to reconsider your interpretation. Everything he says about divorce is 100% correct but nowhere can you reconcile the teaching that you should leave your spouse that you were married to once you've been remarried. Once the sin has been committed you can't uncommit it. You can't unscramble eggs.

The fundamental question here...does “put away” mean the same thing as “divorce”. Bastardized modern English translations of the Bible say it does. Scholars of the original Hebrew/Greek languages say the two terms are not equal. Put away (apoluo) means to simply send away without a bill of divorcement (apostacion), a practice that was common in ancient Jewish culture. Jewish men treated women like a piece of property they could toss to the curb. Jesus said to put away and remarry is adultery. He did not say to divorce and remarry is adultery. Before preaching hell, fire, and damnation these modern preachers need to study the meaning of the original language in greater detail.

What the Bible says.... Many of you are wondering what are the grounds of divorce and remarriage... Moses gave the certificate of divorce for the hardness of man's heart but individuals were not permitted to remarry. Divorce and remarriage is only permitted through death or fornication Not adultery/sexual immorality( Read the most accurate translation KJV). These are two different words(definitions). Fornication is sex before marriage, Adultery is sex outside your marriage. In those days a man was under the assumption that he was marrying a virgin. A nurse would stand outside the tent with a towel as they consummated(had sex) the marriage, if blood was not present and the female hymen was not broken she was found not to be a virgin. Because he married her under false pretense he was allowed to divorce her and remarry. Anyone else who divorces there spouse is to remain single or reconciled back to there spouse if they haven't remarried. If they enter into another relationship they are living in Adultery... Matt 5:32-But I say unto you, That whosoever shall put away his wife, saving for the cause of fornication, causeth her to commit adultery: and whosoever shall marry her that is divorced committeth adultery. Matt 19:9- And I say unto you, Whosoever shall put away his wife, except [it be] for fornication, and shall marry another, committeth adultery: and whoso marrieth her which is put away doth commit adultery. Mark 10-12-And if a woman shall put away her husband, and be married to another, she committeth adultery. Luke 16:18-Whosoever putteth away his wife, and marrieth another, committeth adultery: and whosoever marrieth her that is put away from [her] husband committeth adultery. 1Cor 7:39-The wife is bound by the law as long as her husband liveth; but if her husband be dead, she is at liberty to be married to whom she will; only in the Lord. But she is happier if she so abide, after my judgment: and I think also that I have the Spirit of God.

Stephen W. Wilcox in reference to Jesus in Matthew 5:31,32 says “He has in this passage of Scripture, abrogated the Moses allowance for divorce and remarriage, which allowed the woman to remarry after divorce if she wished to do so (Deut. 24:1-4).” The abrogation supposition imagines Moses as the villain for divorce by allowing it against God’s will. That’s why it’s referred to as “Moses allowance for divorce and remarriage.” Stephen imagines Jesus opposing and reversing this concession thereby abrogating it. Then in this make believe world divorce and remarriage becomes ineffective at that point. The imagination takes you any where you want to go with this issue, unlike scripture, it has no bounds. By claiming Jesus abrogated the divorce concession Stephen has positioned himself to believe other supposition. He believes that marriages no longer end. “Indissoluble marriage” advocates are so bent on defining the adultery of divorce and remarriage with their definition, they fail to see the simple reality that adultery can occur another way. For them Jesus is no longer describing an adultery that’s a result of divorce and remarriage but rather an adultery that results from the absence of these events. Do you see the difference? Can you see how the word of God can be altered by adding information to it? Can you see how Jesus’ teaching on divorce is changed by ignoring His very words? Words have meaning, when you mentally discard them as Stephen does you have changed “the means to an end.” You have altered the very factors that resulted in the conclusion Jesus made. Stephen’s propositional statement (above) contains an important fact that most views on this issue acknowledge, the divorced were allowed to remarry (Deut. 24:2). Both divorce and remarriage were legally binding. Thus they were not in violation to the law that governed Israel. This acknowledgement allows us to begin from a mutual understanding and biblical precedents. Remarriage was tolerated, had legitimacy, was a binding marriage and divorce actually dissolved the first marriage. These realities must be deconstructed in order to postulate the idea of “indissoluble marriage” Stephen propagates. Stephen’s way of doing that is by convincing us that Jesus “abrogated the Moses allowance for divorce and remarriage.” Abrogation is added to scripture and the sequence of events that result in the adultery Jesus described is altered. Divorce and remarriage from Stephen’s perspective are no longer real realities as Jesus spoke of them. Consequently Stephen is putting forth the belief that unlike in the Old Testament divorce and remarriage no longer occurs, is ineffective and therefore no longer changes the marital status of those involved. To affirm this let’s look at some propositional statements advocated by Stephen. Let’s look at where supposition leads. By contrast remember that Jesus’ teaching doesn’t advocate the following (below) convictions if understood within it’s original context. We would then have every reason to oppose the following illusions (below) masquerading as Truth. The “abrogation supposition” is the theory that Jesus abolished the Old Testament divorce concession which in turn made divorce impossible. Stephen Wilcox, a prominent pastor in the Permanence of Marriage Movement reiterates these propositional statements by believing the “abrogation” supposition. He is summarizing the position of some early Church leaders in his message, “Restoration of Christian Marriage”. So these propositions represents what he believes also. * “Death alone terminates the marriage covenant” * “Marriage survives remarriage and precludes it” * “Marriage is a lifelong covenant that will never be invalidated by God while both parties live” * “A marriage is for life. No matter what a spouse turns out to be, or how they may act, what they do or don’t do, or the sins they commit, the covenant remains fully in effect. A remarriage while a former spouse lives is not marriage at all, but sinful adultery. God does not divide the one flesh relationship except by physical death” * “It is necessary therefore to warn those who have remarried while a former spouse lives that they are in a continuing state of adultery according to the scriptures, and must repent of it by confessing that sin and vacating that relationship” While Stephen should be admired for defending the sacredness of marriage it is imperative that you understand the difference between what he is postulating and what Jesus actually said. Stephen is actually claiming the opposite of both Christ and scripture. All because he imagines Jesus doing something He didn’t do. It is imperative that you remain objective when interpreting scripture. There are ramifications for altering the words of Christ. Stephen’s conclusions will cause a conflict between Jesus and Moses, between Old Testament and New. This should be a hint that something is amiss. In contrast to Jesus, Stephen creates the illusion that the adultery of divorce and remarriage is not the adultery of divorce and remarriage, it’s that simple. He doesn’t differentiate between the adultery Jesus describes and the adultery of being unfaithful while married. If you actually end up concluding the opposite of what Jesus said, you pervert the text. If you believe Jesus abolished divorce, you thereby have been programmed to believe the conclusions advocated by Stephen above. It sets you on a trajectory of claiming all the propositions stated by Stephen as if they were true. The bottom line is, Stephen and all who think like him have came to their conclusions by adding to God’s Word. This is no different than the Pharisees who opposed Jesus. By adding their rules to the law of Moses, they made the law more stringent for others and more lenient for themselves. I writing this in hope the reader will gain an understanding of the issue of divorce and remarriage from it’s chronological unfolding. This way of interpreting this issue will be different from those who pick out a New Testament verse and builds a new starting point from it. The new starting point often causes the interpreter to dismiss relevant factors in biblical history that wouldn’t support their conclusion. This is why “abrogation” becomes necessary. If you’re going to make claims the bible doesn’t make you have to convince others that former factors found in the bible have changed. Simply put, a right interpretation must maintain biblical truth as it flowed from Moses to Jesus to Paul. To have an understanding of this issue as it historically unfolded is paramount. To understand Paul’s teaching on this issue we must properly understand Jesus who spoke before him. To understand Jesus we must maintain Old Testament truth set forth by Moses. Paul speaks to what Jesus spoke of and Jesus speaks to what Moses spoke of. We should never believe they contradicted each other. The right interpretation will maintain truth from Moses to Jesus to Paul. Conversely, some have concluded from Jesus’ teaching that “remarriage is adultery” and therefore must be repented of. How? By divorcing their present spouse. Their suppositions create a conflict with biblical precedents because Moses spoke of remarriage as the marriage to whom one was obligated. Therefore a harmonious interpretation of all the biblical writers on this issue cannot be achieved if one is allowed to add (false) suppositions to what Jesus said. These suppositions come from rewording the words of the Lord so that there is no difference between the adultery Jesus described and the adultery that was punished in the Old Testament. While adultery always speaks of infidelity, it does not always transpire the same way. Nor was the culpability for this transgression placed on the women who was divorced by their husband. Therefore you must be open to a view that defends what Jesus actually said over against false supposition. Please note... I’m not arguing against the fact that adultery ensues because of divorce and remarriage, although I do believe there are extenuating circumstances given by Jesus and Paul. I’m arguing for HOW Jesus describes the adultery and the PROPER response to it. I’m arguing for a congruous view of Old and New Testament, no need to make them contradict. No need to try to convince others that Old Testament truths are not relevant to New Testament understanding. I believe if you follow a chronological unfolding of this issue you will properly understand Paul’s New Testament instruction in 1 Corinthians 7. If you don’t, then others will tell you what Paul meant in the vacuum of biblical history and the introduction of extra-biblical suppositions. Most Christians don’t know why adultery follows divorce. It just doesn’t make sense because of their fixed definition for it. They believe adultery only occurs within marriage. That fixed definition doesn’t allow them to grasp that Jesus reveals that adultery entails more than being unfaithful while married. Therefore many of them have come up with theories such as “indissoluble marriage” or “still married in God’s eyes” or “a marriage covenant can’t be broken” or “the one-flesh union can’t be separated except by death” in order to explain the ensuing adultery. None of these theories follow the actual words of the Lord for He is describing the premature end of a marriage, the separating of the one-flesh union, and the consequence of covenant breaking, all which are true in God’s eyes. In God’s eyes scripture is true the way it reads. Don’t let anyone fool you by saying that scripture reads one way but “in God’s eyes” it’s another. (Continued in the reply thread).

The aforementioned theories are ways for some expositors to explain the ensuing adultery. It is imperative that you (the reader) realize that once you create a supposition, particularly a false one, that supposition will have deceptive ramifications. False suppositions change biblical perception and takes the mind into ideas that are a figment of the imagination. The whole conflict among Christians is an argument for or against figments of the imagination created by those (like Stephen) who believe Jesus did something He didn’t do. For example, if anyone can convince a divorced and remarried individual they are not actually divorce and remarried, their mind will automatically default to the idea of “indissoluble marriage”. This will create the illusion that they are still married to their first spouse and therefore they are “in God’s eyes” merely having an affair to which they should end. The first supposition produced the need for another and then postulates a suppositional remedy, one must “divorce to repent” (DTR) of the “affair.” All of this would be rational if the supposition is true. Get the picture? You may be one who follows that reasoning. If so, you need to understand the opposite view of believing that divorce and remarriage are effective events that actually change the marital status of those who experience it. You need to understand that Christ’s conclusions are based in a real and effective divorce and remarriage, conversely Stephen’s conclusions (above) are based in the belief that divorce and remarriage is ineffective, see the difference. One interpretation flows out of the Old Testament and is in harmony with it, and the other puts you on a collision course with the Old Testament. The DTR camp teaches that Jesus “abrogated/abolished” the Old Testament divorce concession in order to explain how adultery ensues from Jesus’ teaching. The irony is “abrogation” is a supposition itself. They interject abrogation into the text because they need someway to defend their belief that adultery only occurs within marriage (their fixed definition for adultery). Following that SUPPOSITION they teach that divorce is no longer possible (another supposition). Most of them will qualify that belief by saying “in God’s eyes” (another supposition) divorce is no longer possible. Consequently they have created the mental illusion that marriage is indissoluble or the idea of “indissoluble marriage”. But the truth is, that was not Jesus’ argument at all. Jesus specifically spoke of an adultery that was the result of divorce and remarriage, not the imaginary absence of those effective events. It is imperative that you realize the distinction between the views and HOW they drawn there conclusions. This post is to help you discriminate between the two. So the relevant question for you to consider is, does the adultery Jesus described happen because divorce and remarriage is now ineffective? DTR suppositions are actually changing the very facts in which Jesus describes this manner of adultery. They miss a very important detail in Christ debate with the Pharisees (Matt.19, Mark 10). In that dialogue Jesus makes a retrospective indictment against Israel for causing this manner of adultery. By insisting on the right to divorce Jesus reveals to His covenant people that they were transgressing God’s design for marriage. I will speak more on this later. If you overlook the fact that Israel had been committing this manner of adultery since their insistence on divorce, you will then see it as something new, as if Jesus caused it by something He did. You will miss the fact that this adultery was caused by hard hearts hundreds of years before the coming Christ. The theory of abrogation actually alters what Jesus revealed to Israel and it’s historic relevance to them. If you omit it’s historic relevance to Israel you will then try to explain it some other way. This is where suppositions arise, the expositor is not able to account for this adultery in the Old Testament. That oversight will then present the need for the expositor to explain the adultery, thus they formulate the aforementioned suppositions. Explaining the adultery other than Jesus’ description is the origin of the conflict in Church history. Don’t read any further until you process that. If you want to understand why Christians have multiple interpretations about the Lord’s teaching, you must understand what your conclusion would be with and without false suppositions. You must realize the difference “abrogation” makes. The relevant question for all is, is the adultery of divorce and remarriage (as described by Jesus) something new to the New Testament? If not, then all the theories that produces the “divorce to repent” supposition are deception. All the propositions reiterated by Stephen (above) is a figment of his and early church fathers imagination. The result of the mental deception exacerbates divorce and destroys established families. Therefore some Christians have produced a remedy for this adultery that is not only extra-biblical, it is anti-biblical. No one in all of scripture taught those remarried to repent of their marriage, no one. Let me pause to say that I know I’m not going to change the mind of the hard line legalist. But for those who are striving to objectively understand and explain this issue, seeing “indissoluble marriage” as false will eliminate the need to postulate other suppositions. Once false suppositions are exposed, there will be no reason to advocate that established families should be dissolved or the “divorce to repent” supposition itself. The best way to keep from following false suppositions is to realize that Jesus was addressing an age old problem. He reveal to His covenant people Israel that they caused this manner of adultery by insisting on the right to discard their wives. This manner of adultery is not something new, nor was there a new remedy issued by Christ or any other New Testament Author. There was no actual conflict between Jesus and Moses. These representatives of God should be interpreted congruously. In the dialogue between Jesus and the Pharisees, Jesus uses the phrase “from the beginning it was not so” to explain the WHY of the adultery He describes, it had nothing to do with the abolishment of divorce. It had everything to do with the reality of an effective divorce. In context Jesus was explaining to Israel that their hard hearts (by insisting on divorce) yielded this manner of adultery. Do you understand if you remove an effective divorce from Jesus’ description you are changing what He described? Are you seeing what supposition (if believed) does to this issue? In context Jesus used the phrase “from the beginning it was not so” (Matt. 19:8) to prove to the Pharisees that divorce is antithetical to God’s idea for marriage. The DTR camp instead claims that Jesus by using that phrase took us back to the time before divorce and then and there abolished it. From supposing on that phrase they claim Jesus abrogated the Old Testament divorce concession, a supposition itself. Do you (the reader) understand that false suppositions are figments of the imagination being defended as TRUTH? Do you understand that these suppositions are foundational to the “divorce to repent” deception? Do you understand there is no abrogation of the law of Moses in Jesus’ teaching? Jesus’ counter argument against those who were defending divorce for every reason (Matt. 19:3) was an appeal to their calloused conscience (harden heart). He revealed to them that divorce staged one to commit adultery by default, defaulting on God’s creative design for marriage (Matthew 19:4-6,8b). Jesus explained that marriage sets forth the obligation to CLEAVE (v.5), therefore having an obligation of lifetime fidelity. In other words when a man and woman enter into marriage they are inherently obligated to a lifetime of fidelity to each the other. What would happen if they did not fulfill that obligation? (Continued in the reply thread).

The simple truth Jesus revealed to Israel was that the obligation inherent in marriage (exclusive intimacy) is violated by divorce and remarriage. The catch 22 is that divorce and remarriage transgresses the principle of exclusivity while forming another husband wife relationship, thereby causing the adultery in the manner Jesus described. Divorce and remarriage produces both a transgression and a transference of marital obligation. This is the dilemma it caused Israel then and the Church today. But the dilemma turns into an enigma when biblical precedents are dismissed by believing remarriage is no longer possible. Or to put it another way, by believing this adultery occurs because the first marriage “survived divorce”. In the Patriarchal society of Israel men were causing their wives to commit adultery by defaulting on the principle of cleaving as explained by Jesus and “the law of her husband” as explained by Paul (Romans 7:2b). These women inadvertently but consequently violated these obligations set forth in marriage. Jesus makes no indictment against the innocent party whatsoever. There was an innocent party and they inadvertently were defiled because of unloving husbands (Deut.24:4). Unlike DTR advocates, Jesus’ criticism focused on divorce not remarriage. Remarriage was graciously allowed for women put away by their husbands (Deut. 24:2). Unfortunately there is an unintentional consequence even for the innocent party. But we have every reason for practical purposes to discriminate between the innocent and guilty party!! That’s because Jesus does exactly that. Jesus indicts the men in Matthew 5:32 with the culpability of their former wives transgression. “causeth her to commit adultery” (KJV) or “makes her the victim of adultery” (NIV) is an indictment against the former husband. Instead of focusing on Christ criticism of divorce, DTR advocates instead choose to focus on remarriage causing the adultery, so therefore “remarriage is the adultery”. But the origin of the problem according to Jesus was hard hearts insisting on divorce (Matt.19:8) and according to the text divorce is what Jesus rebuke the Pharisees for (Matt.19:6). Conversely by adding their suppositions DTR has built a case against remarriage. There is no prohibition (another supposition) for remarriage in Jesus teachings. God’s covenant people were not required to remain companionless because of the consequent defilement and adultery. One must maintain the chronological facts in order to properly understand Paul’s divorce and remarriage restriction later (1 Cor. 7:10,11). While there is a New Testament circumstance where remarriage is prohibited, that restriction is proven unique and not uniform when understood within context as well as the biblical truth that remarriage had been graciously allowed (Deut. 24:2). Historically women, particularly Jewish women had little to no divorce rights but were not forced to endure life without a husband. If you do not start from the biblical base point that remarriage was allowed, 1 Cor. 7:11 will be understood as some uniform rule for every circumstance (even though Paul addresses different ones). Reading that verse void of biblical history and other textual factors will only produce an absolute prohibition not sustainable by knowing all the biblical facts. It is imperative that Christians do not overlook the fact that Jesus described an adultery specifically caused by divorce, not the imaginary absent of it. Do you understand if one omits the retrospective indictment against Israel for causing this manner of adultery, they will then account for the adultery some other way? The DTR camp does exactly that and consequently creates a whole new dimension (enigma) for this issue not even in the bible. Can you be convinced from supposition that repentance requires more for this adultery in the New Testament than it did in the Old? Do you understand that no one in scripture but Moses speaks to an “after remarriage” solution? Do you realize there is no New Testament instruction to “divorce to repent?” Do you now understand that the DTR supposition is predicated on false suppositions itself? The “divorce to repent” supposition is a deceptive lie predicated on deception itself. When we understand Moses and Jesus without these false suppositions we have every reason to believe that divorce and remarriage produced both a transgression and a transference of marital obligation. That would be the harmonious conclusion of believing both Jesus and Moses. Questions for the reader, * How do you account for this manner of adultery? * How do you explain the adultery caused by divorce and remarriage? Why are these two questions important? Because if your premise is false your conclusion will be also. If you do not understand that adultery is not limited to “infidelity within marriage” you will not differentiate and you will end up opposing the Lord on this issue. * Does your explanation affirm or deny the retrospective indictment against Israel? * Do you understand that Jesus was telling Israel they had been committing this manner of adultery ever since they insisted on divorce? Why are these questions relevant? Because if we understand that the adultery Jesus describes is not something new we have no ground to change biblical precedents. Precedents where remarriage was allowed even though it inadvertently caused a shameful consequence. Precedents where remarriage was a binding marriage. * Are you able to differentiate between this way of committing adultery from that of infidelity within marriage? * Do you understand that the abrogation/abolishment supposition changes what Jesus actually said? * Do you understand that the abrogation/abolishment supposition changes when this adultery began? * Do you understand that the abrogation/abolishment supposition changes how Jesus describes this adultery? * Do you understand that the abrogation/abolishment supposition changes why this adultery occurs? * Do you realize the abrogation/abolishment supposition is a deceptive lie (even if unintentional)? All Christians believe that divorce is nothing to be cavalier about it. But divorce is a reality in God’s eyes today just like it was for Moses, Jesus and Paul. We can not make up suppositions to explain it away or to fix it, we will only become more legalistic than Christ. Repentance will then require more in the new Testament than it did in the Old, we will then impose on others a repentance no one in scripture required. Any supposition can be defended from the bible if the text is isolated from biblical history. This is why you must maintain a chronological understanding of the facts as they unfolded. Anyone can refer to a passage of scripture to defend their supposition, but few people actually harmonize it with biblical precedents. “divorce to repent” fabricates a burden on the mind that exceeds the bible, that’s where and why I disagree with it. That conviction is built around false supposition and deductive reasoning as I’ve proved, not a chronological unfolding of biblical history and truth. “divorce to repent” exacerbates divorce and destroys families. Adding transgression to transgression is not the answer. We must maintain the biblical truth that once remarried, individuals are in a binding marriage in God’s eyes to which they should honor. Any supposition to the contrary is just that.

Remarriage never was the adultery. Jesus was criticizing divorce and He did so by revealing what it caused for remarriage. God had not forced singleness on His covenant people even though they inadvertently committed this manner of adultery. Divorce is the primal cause because it prematurely ends a marriage therefore staging remarriage to violate the “faithfulness until death” responsibility. Jesus taught that divorce causes one to commit adultery when they remarry, not the marriage is the adultery. The focal point of criticism was on divorce. This manner of adultery is a two factor or two cause adultery, not one factor. Remarriage causes adultery because of divorce. That was the Lord’s point and that is why He admonished Israel to stop separating the one-flesh union (Matt. 19:6). That was His only instruction on this issue. Jesus did not teach that more divorce was the answer to this predicament. Neither did anyone else in scripture.

But if God did not bring the two together then surely divorce is justified. It says let no man separate what God has brought together. Remember how one of the prophets commanded the men of Israel to put away their foreign wives and children because their marriage to them was not the will of God because they were unbelievers and this contradicted the law of God saying do not marry the unbelieving daughters of the nations.

I understand that you feel that you are being compassionate toward those who are in this situation, one that I was also in for 15 years, but you are not telling people what they need to hear when it comes to covenants with God and teaching falsely. The damage is being done by giving false hope for remarriage after a divorce which is a 500 year old false gospel that was not practiced in the first 1500 years within any church. Biblical grounds for remarriage after a divorce is a lie and total nonsense that is settng people up and keeping them from inheriting the kingdom of heaven. Two becomming one-flesh is more than an "intention" or "idea", but covenants with God are permanent until death. Ok...answer this...does Jesus not say in Matthew 5:32 "That whosoever shall put away his wife, saving for the cause of fornication, causeth her to commit adultery: and whosoever shall marry her that is divorced committeth adultery?" What is so difficult for most people to understand about this scripture? The woman in this case is not guilty of fornication during Jewish betrothal (which is the Mosaic Law that is clearly outlined in Deuteronomy 22:13-21), but is in danger of comitting adultery with another man because she is now divorced . Any pastor or teacher should know that Matthew was written to the Jews (Romans 1:16), and is the first of the synoptic gospels with over 20 specific characteristics that speak directly to a Jewish audience. Jesus rebuked the Pharisees that were preaching like this video and who believe that hardness of hearts that caused divorce and remarriage was ok. Jesus reaffirms the one-flesh covenant when he says to the Pharisees "Have ye not read, that he which made them at the beginning made them male and female, And said, For this cause shall a man leave father and mother, and shall cleave to his wife: and they twain shall be one flesh? Wherefore they are no more twain, but one flesh. What therefore God hath joined together, let not man put asunder. They say unto him, Why did Moses then command to give a writing of divorcement, and to put her away? He saith unto them, Moses because of the hardness of your hearts suffered you to put away your wives: but from the beginning it was not so" (Matthew 19:4-8). More proof that this video is in error is by teaching from the Old Covenant Law regarding David when Jesus addresses the Pharisees in Luke 16 as seen here: "And the Pharisees also, who were covetous, heard all these things: and they derided him. And he said unto them, Ye are they which justify yourselves before men; but God knoweth your hearts: for that which is highly esteemed among men is abomination in the sight of God. The law and the prophets were until John: since that time the kingdom of God is preached, and every man presseth into it. And it is easier for heaven and earth to pass, than one tittle of the law to fail. Whosoever putteth away his wife, and marrieth another, committeth adultery: and whosoever marrieth her that is put away from her husband committeth adultery" (Luke 16:14-18). Jesus clearly is telling the Pharisees that the Law and the prophets were until John the Baptist began preaching the coming of the kingdom. Preaching on divorce and remarriage from the Old Covenant is serious error because it denies the authority of Christ through the New Covenant. This video is mocking the scriptures and scoffing at those who are following the scriptures and not man's interpretation. To further prove this is teaching falsely is that it also takes 2 Corinthians 6:14-18 out of context in an attempt to apply it to divorce and remarriage when the entire chapter of 2 Corinthians 6 is about ministry from beginning to end. What is not being made clear is that Paul already dealt with the topic of divorce and remarriage in his first letter to the Corinthians in 1 Corinthians 7 and would not have repeated this in a chapter about ministry. We need to divide the word and allow it to affirm other scriptures but some either do not yet know that 2 Corinthians 6 is speaking specifically about ministry or deliberately ignore it in order to justify remarriage after a divorce. It should be simple but we have teachers like in this video sowing confusion and preaching to itchy ears. Another proof that some are teaching falsely is by telling you that 1 Corinthians 7:15 disolves a one-flesh covenant but is not telling you that Jesus is speaking through Paul when he says "not I but the Lord" when he commands the departing spouse to "remain unmarried or else be reconciled" just four scriptures above in 1 Corinthians 7:11. This is literally attempting to teach that Paul overruled Christ and says that the brother or sister is no longer "bound", but that is not what the actual scripture says. Here is the actual scripture, "But if the unbelieving depart, let him depart. A brother or a sister is not under bondage in such cases: but God hath called us to peace" (1 Corinthians 7:15). The phrase "not under bondage" means slavery to sin against God by force with an unbelieving spouse, not a release from the one-flesh covenant as this teaching suggests. The word bondage always refers to slavery not marriage. The Word is clear. Matthew is written to the Jews first and was speaking on the Jewish betrothal found in Deuteronomy 22:13-21, and clearly proves Luke 16:16 true in John 8:11 by forgiving the adulteress. By telling her to sin no more he is telling her to repent and return to her covenant husband just as God commanded Hosea to take back Gomer. The matter of being equally yoked in 2 Corinthians 6:14-18 is regarding ministry, not marriage. This is easily proven by 1 Corinthians 7:12-14 where the unbeliever accepts that the believing spouse has found faith in God but wishes to remain and not hinder their beliefs. Many also falsely use the woman at the well as an excuse to remarry but this is easily explained by Matthew 22:23-28, where Jesus is being told of a similar situation where a widow marries seven brothers, each after the previous brother dies. This both legitimizes and reaffirms the one-flesh covenant as well as the nature of Jesus's acknowledgement of the five husbands of the Samaritan woman, as well as the illegitimacy of the 6th man. If the five husbands of the woman at the well were not covenant husbands then Jesus would not have acknowledged that they were. This video is also teaching falsely when it comes to God's divorce with Israel. The reason some find it difficult to understand Jeremiah 3:1 is that they make two mistakes while reading the parable of Israel as the divorced wife. Many error by only reading half the parable. Let’s first examine this parable more closely. Jeremiah’s purpose in using this parable is two-fold. First, the prophet wishes to vividly illustrate Israel’s spiritual disloyalty to its Creator. Second, and most important, unlike the twice-estranged wife whose original husband cannot return to her, the prophet appeals to the Jewish people to repent and proclaims that it is their sacred mandate to be restored as God’s chosen people. What is impossible with the forsaken woman is the destiny for the children of Israel. Let’s look at the entire verse in context: They say, “If a man divorces his wife, and she goes from him and becomes another man’s, may he return to her again?” Would not that land be greatly polluted? But you have played the harlot with many lovers; “Yet return to Me,” says the Lord (Jeremiah 3:1). The central feature of the prophet’s exhortation that you overlooked appears at the very end of the verse, ” ‘Yet return to Me’, says the Lord.” Jeremiah makes this plea five times throughout the chapter. The message conveyed by prophet clear: The mercy and compassion of the Almighty is far beyond the scope of man’s comprehension. God has made it clear that Israel has been unfaithful but still his wife. Teaching that God has remarried the church (which is the bride of Christ, not God), who is only betrothed to Christ until the Wedding Supper of the Lamb, is uncatigorically false and presents a major conflict in scripture. By doing this you present God as a polygamist in an attempt to void all scriptures that pertain to the one-flesh covenant. Please seek the scriptures for confirmation and answers before entering into or remaining in a situation such as an adulterous marriage that requires total repentance. God bless.

In his confusion he has conflated the word for fornication with the word for adultery. He rightly points out later, in 1 Cor 7, that the word for bonds (as in marriage) and bound (as in slavery) are different words, however in Matt 19:9/5:32 he conflates adultery and fornication. Modern teachers of the world subsume adultery under fornication but ignore when the two are listed together. If fornication covers adultery within itself as a charge then adultery need not be named because it is already covered/listed under fornication. But what is ignored is Matthew is the only book where the exception is given... it is also, in Matthew 1, the place where divorce of betrothal is accounted. Joseph being betrothed to Mary. Joseph being a just (just as in justice of law) man. It appeared to Joseph that Mary had been a fornicator (one who has sex outside of the bonds of marriage) was minded to divorce his betrothed, Mary. This is the one place this speaker misses; many people have been misled in this one mistake. Remember all commands are summed up in love; love God first and love your neighbor second. So, (1 Cor 13) is divorce patient, kind, not keeping a record of wrong...? No. Is remarriage hoping, believing and enduring all things for your lost spouse's sake? No. Then divorce and remarriage is not acting in love. When then is divorce allowed? Love- when it is us not insisting on our own way but allowing our spouse to depart. This is what God did with Israel in Jeremiah 3... but remember 8 verses after he granted Israel its certificate of divorce he said, "return to me for I AM MARRIED UNTO YOU." divorce did not end the covenant marriage only Jesus's giving of his life on the cross ended that covenant and allowed for a new covenant.

When did the term putting her away change from stoning; to giving her a bill of divorcement, and putting her out of thine house? Moses's discourse to allow putting her away to mean putting her out of thine house instead of the original meaning of stoning is where the root of the problem lies... It opened a floodgate for putting her away for every cause... As long as God's stoning law remained in tact, there were far less putting away... The only reason a man could be free of his wife was for the cause of adultery, or death... Jesus did not change the law, but rather fulfilled it by pointing out the fact that from the beginning of the giving of the law, a provision for a bill of divorcement was not so. So nothing changed except forgiving the guilty party as Jesus did when he said, 'Let him who is without sin first cast a stone at her...

Well spoken and agree. The Mathew exception many misunderstand and confuse fornication with adultery when they are not the same. Fornication here is for sexual sins while in the Jewish marriage betrothal period before the marriage day which equates to non Jewish engagement period for us. The Jews had the betrothal as a temporary legal marriage state before the wedding day and so any sexual sins in that period is called fornication (pornea) while once married is now called adultery (molchai). Compare the Greek Septuagint to prove this as true - see Hosea 4:14: "And I will not visit upon your daughters when they shall commit fornication (πορνεύσωσι - pornea), nor your daughters-in-law when they shall commit adultery (μοιχεύσωσιν - molchai)".
