The pattern for christians marriage or "dismarriage" (if this word even exists) is found in 1Cor chap. 7 only.
Many christians fail to recognize that the gospels cover an age in which the law of Moses was still in use and so many of the contexts of the 4 gospels should be considered in the light of the law, and so is Matthew chapters 5 to 7. In this section, after the King announced TO JEWS the kingdom of the heavens (the david kingdom on earth, the millennium) as near (Mat 4.17), he then introduces new standards of behavior for the jews who will enter in it. These new standards are found in Matthew chap. 5 to 7. Christians can learn with these chapters too as well as with the own law of Moses, since it's all God's inspired word, but this sermon is not primarily for christians and so not all of it can correctly apply to christians since it is rooted in jewish laws. Mat 5.32 is an example. Mat 23.23 is another good example of taking out of context a verse that can be applied to jews alone, and unproperly applying it to christians.
See... some christians here are arguing that in the case of abuse, getting divorced is okay too. But the text of Mat 5.32 itself says nothing about this. See what I mean with my preaching? The real standard for christians is Acts 2 until Rev 4 - which cover the age of the church.
The rest of the Bible is useful for christians, but not the standard.
Love is not explained by any word.If you love you won't have an answer for your feeling,but LOVE! You don't have to get divorced for the reason of adultery.Unless you really think it's over.No one has the right of jugding anyone.Mainly if you really love.But you have the right of feeling if it's your limits,if you feel uncomfortable with the situation of adultery.Its up to you!
They can, but they shouldn't. Jesus said, "Moses permitted you to divorce your wives because your hearts were hard. But it was not this way from the beginning." "For it is written, 'For this reason, a man shall leave his father and his mother and be united to his wife, and the two shall become one flesh.'" -Matthew 19:8, 5 (paraphrased)
IT IS VITAL to understand the wording of the text that involves a general application:
(Matthew 5:31-32) “31*“Moreover it was said, ‘Whoever divorces his wife, let him give her a certificate of divorce.’ 32*However, I say to YOU that everyone divorcing his wife, except on account of fornication, makes her a subject for adultery, and whoever marries a divorced woman commits adultery.*.*.”
According to jesus NO!
Beforeee jesus you couldddd... as moses stated.
JEsus said nooot anymore !!!
If u divorce for a reason other than adultary its wronggg and you shouldnt remarry
yes, if she is a none believer and she want to leave because she doesnot want to believe then the bible says let her go, because Jesus want us to live in peace.
