Divorce

Many Christians have questions regarding this subject.

"Marriage is a covenant agreement, meant for life, therefore it must not be broken under any circumstance; remarriage further violates the covenant and therefore is not permissible." about.com

"Divorce, though not God's desire, is sometimes the only alternative when all else has failed. The divorced person must remain unmarried for life thereafter." about.com

"Divorce, though not God's desire, is sometimes unavoidable. If the grounds for the divorce are biblical, the divorced person can remarry, but only to a believer.'

"Divorce, though not God's desire, is also not the unforgivable sin. Regardless of the circumstances, all divorced persons who have repented, should be forgiven and allowed to remarry." about.com

The bible states all of this, but in scripture. This is layed out where its easier to understand.

P.S. My grandfather is a preacher, and he's been divorced. If this helps..

I am a Christian and I am remarried. My previous husband committed one of the Ten Commandments and before we divorced and I walked away, we went to discuss with the pastor and I stayed for another year and just couldn't take it. He was still out there and we ended up divorced - I am now remarried my husband is also a Christian and we do abide by God's laws. We must know where to go in the Bible to find the answers to understand. Blessed Abundantly!

Marriage and divorce are legal matters. The fact that churches still oversee these procedings is purely traditional. Some times it can get sticky if you rely upon traditions. The catholic church for instance will not conduct a wedding ceremony for a couple if one party has already been married in a catholic church and will not recognize the divorce.

According to the Bible, the only accetable grounds for divorce are - Unfaithfullness and Henduring you from the worship of God. Other than that it is a sin. However in the eyes of God all sin is equal. So getting a divorce is no better or worse than stealing, lying, ect.
