Topic: Is divorce a sin? | |

Were you there.
John taught that the only way to the father was through Christ. Mathew taught... Thomas taught... ... No place in the bible do I see a chapter witten by Jesus. Where is that gospel? |

The entire Bible was written by Jesus. I reject your false witness.
Stop teaching your lies. I rebuke you in the name of Jesus. |

That sir is another falsehood.
The bible was not written by jesus. It was written in his name by the disciples. Show me a chapter in the NT that is signed by or authored by the Christ. The words are uplifting. The message is there. The spirit of God is within but the words come from the disciples not the source. |

2 Timothy 3:16
All Scripture is inspired by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, for training in righteousness; |

I rebuke you"in the name of jesus"..Whoa!, you have me shakin' in my
boots!.. Never met your jesus..Thank God.. My neighbour, Jesus, is a kind and forgiving entity, who would never rebuke anyone!!! |
|
|
|
Yes you would rebuke me with words from your law.
Just as Christ was rebuked by those that followed the letter of the law in his time but not the meaning of the message. |

technically i believe the synoptics say that it is, but then maybe john
says its okay.. i can't remeber and don't feel like looking upt he scriptures, but i know 1 does say to do it... but technically the christian religion would say it is a sin and there is no way out of it whether you're abused, cheated on, don't get a long.. technically you have to go through it.. which is silly .. but that's what i understand.. if you really wonder this my best advice would be to visit your church or temple which ever faith you identify yourself with.. |

and adventure.. don't even bother to argue with him... he is a lost
cause and is the only one in any of these forums that is correct because everyone else "doesnt know what they are talking about" i've seen him say that to atleast 4 people now. so just but him on block user or ignore him.. bc really you're wasting your time typing to someone who believes " his" interpretations and the little websites he steals information off of are the only correct ones. |

I thank you but you must understand. Though he knows it not he has blessed me many times over each time he speaks evil of me or falsely accuses me and I thank him for those blessings. He has blessed me me many times in the past few days. |

God allowed divorce because of the people. Would God promote sin...no!.
The divorce of a pair of followers of the true faith was allowed but not as God wished. Sin is transgression of the law....The law is the commandments. If one of the true faith remarried another they would then commit adultry....which is sin. Divorce is not sin.....adultry is. There is not sin in certain cases even if one remarries. Adultry by the spouse or the leaving of one by a non believer of the true faith. All sin has the same penalty. Christ has pain the penalty for all that accept it in a truthful form. |

sororitygurl4life,
Your answer was completely unscriptural. Not because you didn't quote scripture, but because you made statements which are completely false. |
|

False to whom spider.
False to god. Perhaps just false to you. Read your own book. John 4:6 Romans 12:3 Proverbs 11:2 Peace be with you. Grace be upon you. |

AdventureBegins,
Because what she said is false. Jesus taught that divorce was allowed when one of the partners had been unfaithful. She said it was never allowed. That's just simply not true. Christianity isn't up for debate or vote, it is what it is. |

The really wrong thing is that the guy is looking for scriptural advice
to live his life by. According to what Jesus taught, he has he right to divorce and remarry. But if what she said hadn't been contradicted and he only read the last page...maybe he wouldn't have gotten re-married. Or maybe the unfairness of it all would have driven him to do something he wouldn't have done otherwise or caused him to lose his faith. I think that if someone asks "Is divorce a sin?" and mentions "searching the scriptures", then they must be a Christian of some sort. And if they are a Christian and they are asking for answers from other Christians, then maybe...just maybe, Christians should give the answers? And just for the record, I'm not saying anyone shouldn't post, but I am saying that I wouldn't if I were in their shoes. |

You then speak for all 230,000 sects of christainity.
I admire your ability to quote chapter and verse although I must say that is a lot of diferent ways to worship. However I think she is right. Once a man take a woman to be his wife he should not put her away from him through all the days of his life. Which is why care should be taken in the choosing of a wife. Even should she committ adultery he may put her away but cannot marrry another. Though he put her away he is still married to her. Prove me wrong. I have not the knowledge of your book that you have. |

AdventureBegins,
You are right, divorce is not God's highest will for us. He would prefer that we carefully pick our mate. But Jesus taught that divorce is allowed in one circumstance... Matthew 19:3-9 -------------------------------------------------------------- Some Pharisees came to Jesus, testing Him and asking, "Is it lawful for a man to divorce his wife for any reason at all?" And He answered and said, "Have you not read (B)that He who created them from the beginning MADE THEM MALE AND FEMALE, and said, 'FOR THIS REASON A MAN SHALL LEAVE HIS FATHER AND MOTHER AND BE JOINED TO HIS WIFE, AND (D)THE TWO SHALL BECOME ONE FLESH'? So they are no longer two, but one flesh. What therefore God has joined together, let no man separate. They said to Him, "Why then did Moses command to GIVE HER A CERTIFICATE OF DIVORCE AND SEND her AWAY?" He said to them, "Because of your hardness of heart Moses permitted you to divorce your wives; but from the beginning it has not been this way. "And I say to you, whoever divorces his wife, except for immorality, and marries another woman commits adultery." -------------------------------------------------------------- I would really suggest you read scttrbrain's mega-post on page three of this thread, it does a great job explaining the Christian's stance on divorce. But really, if you are a Bible believing Christian, it doesn't get any clearer than "And I say to you, whoever divorces his wife, except for immorality, and marries another woman commits adultery." |

the only time I believe in divorce is 1 when adultry is committed, 2
when a partner is being abused litterally all the time. other then that I really dont believe in divorce if you really honstly love someone you should try and work things out as best as you can |
