Hi Jewel

I'm not posting about my understanding. I was posting about what I have seen Catholics, in this forum, post about their understanding. It's been some time since I have seen one of those kinds of posts

thanks

Sorry..newbie here and it shows..i actually think ive mistakenly responded to my OWN posts a time or two..or three..lol

Ooooo..not mine either..adultery is biblical acceptance of divorce..God forgives us ..but there also are bible "conditions" for a divorced person to be able to re marry..and it has nothing to do with what the church says but what God says in His word..its not popular but still there...

This, honestly is not a subject I've given much thought about in years so excuse me if I get human about it. Some people just aren't cut out to be alone and divorced for years or decades I think that grace should not be discounted. Jesus is after all a man, a human and less prone to damn someone than he is to forgive them, us.

I'm not sure what you are saying here

but what I was posting about, was being told that a divorced person remarrying, is not forgiven UNTIL they divorce the 2nd person they married.

so you get divorced, to be forgiven.

that's not my belief

And how do you believe that a wrong/adulterous marriage can be forgiven? If not by divorce?

not a problem at all. I just wanted to clarify.

hmmm

are you saying it is wrong to remarry even if a person is divorced for adultery on the part of the other spouse?

I do not find you are being clear

Good to get "human" right? Lol..we cant stop our spouse if they choose to leave (talks bout that in the bible too)..God forgives and removes the offense forever..

I heard that because God is a divorced person, divorcing the non born again Israel. That on this side of the cross having completed the promised demonstration (the veil rent) marrying another to include the Gentiles. Our focus can be enlightened as to what God brings together let no man call separate. A strand of three is not easily broken, not that it cannot. We should live with the peace of God( the father and Son working together in us) depending on our selves as two walking together in a agreement . If our peace we do have with God is destroyed we must seek His peace and hold it above the traditions of men .

The god of this world, the counterfeiter turns things upside down calling that which is separate as if it was together, and what God calls together he calls separate. Today the word marriage can mean whatever a person decides to call it. teerible tribulation for the born again beliver

Like any violation it is forgivable . Just as was blaspheming was forgivable as long as the Son of man as that seen was here. When he disappeared it made it unforgivable.

I'll be frank, some of the lessons I learned back then, don't need a refresher course. lol.

The rate of divorces and remarriages today is crazy. Its wrong. We can imagine some extreme cases when it can be OK to divorce, I am not sure what case we can imagine when it is OK to remarry, though.

At the risk of derailing this thread completely, I question the second sentence here. I don't see in Scripture anywhere that it says blaspheming the Son after His resurrection is unforgiveable. The only way I can make sense of this is if you believe that the Son and the Holy Spirit are not distinct... that doesn't line up with Scripture. Perhaps you could clarify?

 

[calibob]

good question

Concerning David and Bathsheba.....yeah David sinned big time in murdering Uriah and taking Bathsheba....but God forgave him, David admitted he had sinned against God alone and God blessed David and Bathsheba with Solomon who would write Ecclesiastes, Proverbs (most) and sit upon the throne of Israel at the height of the Kingdom for 40 years.......

Just a point to ponder....God can take a bad situation that started in sin, and end up getting the glory for his mercy, blessings and work among men.....

MANY times in the bible..man has gone theier own way but God has brought His will around...example..sarah having hubby sllep with servant womem because she got tired of waiting to have a baby..not Gods initial plan..God blessed BOTH sarah n the servant..not Gods will for Adam and Eve to eat from the tree of life..but after consiquences..God still blessed them and brought round his son Jesus to help restore relationship between God and man..etc...
