    Will you go to hell for having a divorce?

    I Corinthians 7 is the marriage chapter.

    Jesus replied to someone's question about divorce in Matthew 5.

    Matthew 5

    31 It hath been said, Whosoever shall put away his wife, let him give her a writing of divorcement:

    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.

    You're not going to hell.

    Problems arise when people break a vow, remarry and try to blend families. It confuses children most often. They may have emotional closeness issues into adulthood. It is wisdom to remain single until the children have left home to start their lives.

    It is a good thing to go to your Pastor, or a pastor and discuss this divorce fully, and with prayer.

    Our society tends to jump over any Biblical input into marriage and remarriage. I think we can see by the content of some of Dr Phil's programs, the effects of marriages, divorce and lives lived without Biblical principles. You're doing a good thing by asking.

    Your verse 32 states except for fornication , that's premarital sex , it makes a marriage void because they played a harlot before marriage or whore monger . They where to be virgins at marriage.

    Fornication is out side of a marriage .

    All sexually activity within a marriage is Adultery .

    Marriage is very rarely understood in most places .

    Read Romans chapter 6 it's the Law yes applies today as well .

    It's really simple but men make it confusing.

    In a perfect world this would be true. In 1964, Courts ruled to toss the Bible out of schools. (By one old athiest woman)

    Before the Church woke up, it was law.

    Everyone was distracted by advances in the Space program. Cuban missile crisis and the race crisis. I graduated high school when they were trying to burn down Washington DC.

    Evil prospers when good people do nothing. A lot of people don't know the Laws of God. It's up to people to find political support to rescind those laws. People can have abortion rescinded this year IF. They would vote for candidates that are against abortion. But they choose to vote blue, red, or for nobody. It's in Isaiah.

    The Free Love generation threw off all restraints and ushered in hedonism to the 10th power.

    This is what we have to work with. You can be the John the Baptist of the 2020's, but "they" will just UNFRIEND you.

    Or you can preach on here, facebook, Twitter, or on the sidewalks of your city-

    Like Jesus did. One person at a time, or at gatherings.

    People are accountable for what they know and do once they receive Christ as Savior. Some people get "saved" and continue to live sinful because of Churches who preach a watered down version of the Bible. The Nicolaitans preach that message (book of Revelation). The greater sin is on Churches who DO NOT preach the New Testament.

    Jesus gave us 2 new Commandments. If we do those, we will not violate the 10.

    The advantages of being virgins before marriage, is the the female hymen which prevents sexual disease and pregnancy, hopefully.

    Hardly anyone knows what the word CHASTITY means; or teaches it. The greater sin is on the Church. Churches are the only possible restraint against a "No restraint society."

    You teach it. It's in your heart to care about it. Preach against sowing wild oats and hoping for crop failure. Allowing "crops" to be raked out and sold by Planned Parenthood", for laboratory experiments.

    Come Lord Jesus! Mishael

    If I depended on the wisdom or understanding of man , I'd have nothing at all .

    I do not like being deceived and only the Father in heaven by whom we gain access to through the Son , are educated by the Holy Spirit .

    Yes Jesus said will He find faith when he comes ? The world will be so much in darkness before he comes . And already is . It will get worse , but the elect will endure .

    Romans chapter 7 1,2,3

    Not chapter 6
  • Rob - In Reply on 1 Corinthians 15 - 3 years ago
    God hates divorce , so it should be avoided as much as possible . But it's not a sin in some cases . But in some it may be .

    Remarriage is Adultery , unless the spouse dies , it's the law of marriage see Romans ch 6 .

    It could make a person single if the other person leaves . No remarriage . That's adultery.

    Today people divorce and remarry like buying a new home . It's wrong .
