Thank you for that explaination. In your response, you mentioned that the couple could come back together if no one remarried. Does God allow remarriage to a different person,(other than the ex spouse), after divorce? If so, under what circumstances. It has been my understanding that a person is to remain unmarried, but I'm seeking to learn and understand this more and I am open to correction! Thank you!
You asked, if I understood correctly, if couples divorced but not remarried to someone else could remarry and I believe the answer is yes. I know a dear couple who did just this and after lots of good counseling and work their second time marriage to each other is better than the first time. Of course if one spouse remarries that closes the door to a reconciled remarriage.
It is very complicated because every person is a sinner and contributes to problems in marriage, and while not all marriages should be continued or saved, restoration is God's ideal. - Barbara
Wonderful article. 💯
Yes, agree. We heard Ed Gungor many years ago preach, "The Seven Reasons For Divorce"
Seven times he said, selfishness.
The Bibles says there should be no marriage to another but only remarriage to the couple.
