Marriage was intended by the Author of all life, to be one man and one woman, permanent, for life.
Has God made provision for divorce due to the regrettably, covenant-breaking offense(s) of a mate? Does He punish His victimized children for the offense of their mate? When wronged (fornication, abandonment) by their own mate, are His children relegated to a life of being alone, unmarried due to being victimized?
MESSAGE RECEIVED:
“From what I understand, the Bible says God doesn’t like divorce but allows it. However, the problem is remarriage. We are to stay unmarried or be guilty of adultery until our spouse dies.”
REPLY:
God hates divorce. He said that once (Malachi 2:16). Yet the sin of adultery which He also hates, is found 64 times in His Word (adultery, adulterous, adulterer, adulteress, etc.). Those who were divorced due to the fornication or abandonment of their former spouse are absolutely “not under bondage” (not bound) to that previous marriage and fully free to remarry if they desire (1 Corinthians 7:15-16; Deuteronomy 24:1-4). There is no adultery in remarriage, especially if the person who remarries is not the offending party. And, by the way, does this idea not also violate the character of the God of love? It sure does. Besides it being unbiblical to say all remarriage is sin, we can also ask, with the whole of Scripture in mind: Would the LORD punish His own children unduly for the sin of others? That sounds sadistic to me, as in it seems to be coming from Satan, not God. The LORD told us that each person is accountable for his own sins and not the sins of any other, not even our own children, spouses, etc. (Deuteronomy 24:16; Ezekiel 18:19-20). This is eye opening right here.
Each individual person, created by and responsible to God, will give account for his own sins, and never, not the sins of any other. God has made each of us unique and uniquely accountable, personally responsible for our doings.
“The fathers shall not be put to death for the children, neither shall the children be put to death for the fathers: every man shall be put to death for his own sin.” Deuteronomy 24:16

“Good morning my brother In Christ Jesus…so recently I saw a lying basher per say…post and say that anyone who is divorced and been remarried is in continuing sin and are hell bound. My wife was married before and the man committed adultery and also put her away. We’ve been married 8 years now…am I in sin? I know the Word says except for fornication all else is not reason for divorce basically. I know without a doubt God put my wife in my life when I was a sinner man messing up…”
REPLY:
Fornication and abandonment are divorce-able offenses (Matthew 5:32; 19:9; 1 Corinthians 7:15). These divorce dictators are nicolaitans of the worse kind which Jesus says He hates (Revelation 2:6, 15). They are conquering, bringing into bondage the people by way of their lies and are heretics of the worse, most sadistic kind. God doesn’t punish His own children for the sin of someone else… such as an abandoning, adulterous mate. I want to encourage you to read these posts linked below and also to listen to pastor Tim’s video…..amazing, truth. This truth has saved many from destruction inflicted by these demon possessed heretics who say you can’t remarry. Hearing and walking in the truth makes us free (John 8:31-32, 36).
WHERE does God’s Word say that a remarried person is going to hell? Nowhere. You haven’t proved “perpetual adultery” because you can’t without leaving Bible truth out of your convoluted equation. You haven’t thoroughly, honestly studied the whole counsel of Scripture on the matter and are simply following other heretics.
“WHO shall lay any thing to the charge of God’s elect? It is God that justifieth. 34 Who is he that condemneth? It is Christ that died, yea rather, that is risen again, who is even at the right hand of God, who also maketh intercession for us.” Romans 8:33-34
Brian Joel writes:
“The issue is that these marriage Pharisees don’t understand the Gospel…..when you become a new creation in Him, all the covenants from “Babylon” dissolve and you start a new….to say that you can’t would be to preach a Gospel where Satan still has you bound forever to your old life before Christ…this is another Gospel…..that’s the first issue they can’t grasp their head around….
The 2nd is the issue is that they don’t understand what it means to be “blameless” before Him….If someone abandons you, then you’re blameless in the situation….you cannot however be the one that does the abandoning….this would never happen though if you both are truly united in Christ though.”
As Brian points out, are these no-divorce pharisees not wrongly condemning the just?
“He that justifieth the wicked, and he that condemneth the just, even they both are abomination to the LORD.” Proverbs 17:15
Have you been unfortunately divorced and are perhaps considering remarriage? Well, beware of the diabolical divorce dictator heretics, novices who run rampant on social media, seeking to put people into bondage by their lies. Among other lies, they are telling people to divorce their second spouse and go back to the first which God’s Word expressly forbids (Deuteronomy 24:4).
“Her former husband, which sent her away, may not take her again to be his wife, after that she is defiled; for that is abomination before the LORD: and thou shalt not cause the land to sin, which the LORD thy God giveth thee for an inheritance.” Deuteronomy 24:4
Believer’s Bible Commentary on divorce and remarriage:
“Deuteronomy 24:1-4
11. Divorce and Remarriage (24:1-4)
A man could divorce his wife for uncleanness by writing her a certificate of divorce and giving it to her. She was then free to marry someone else. But if her second husband died or divorced her, the first husband was not allowed to marry her again. Jehovah gave Israel a certificate of divorce (Jer_3:1-8); yet in a future day He will take her to Himself again, having purged her of her unfaithfulness. Oh, the depths of the riches of the love of God; how low He stoops to love the unlovable!”
Finnis Dake on divorce and remarriage:
“Whatever the intended thought, it is clear that divorce was not commanded here, but permitted because of the hardness of hearts (Deu_24:1; Mat_19:8); that both divorced parties were free to remarry (Deu_24:2); that the first husband could not take the wife a second time, for that was an abomination to God (Deu_24:3-4). Such things must be understood in the light of several factors: that a wife became the actual property of the husband and he became her lord and master (Exo_21:7-11; 2Co_11:3; Eph_5:22-33; Col_3:18; 1Pe_3:5-7); that easy divorces were a common thing in those days among all nations; that Israel had been influenced greatly by such nations and was in the habit of getting divorces for the most frivolous excuses; and that Moses simply tolerated certain practices because of the hardness of the hearts of Israel. Hence, this law limiting divorce to “uncleanness” was needed.
Only those with a scriptural reason for divorce have the right to remarry. The man and woman who divorce without scriptural grounds cause sin by forcing each other to marry someone else. Paul gives one more scriptural reason for divorce—willful desertion because of Christ and the gospel (1 Corinthians 7:12-15).
[then let him write her a bill of divorcement] Three commands—marriage and divorce:
1. If you take a wife, and she finds no favor in your eyes because of some uncleanness, you may write a bill of divorcement, put it into her hand and send her out of your house.
2. She may go and be another man’s wife (Deu_24:2).
3. If the second husband hates her and writes her a bill of divorcement, or if he dies, the former husband may not remarry her, for she is defiled (Deu_24:4).
c [him] It appears that only the man had the authority concerning divorce. By New Testament times, however, a woman had such authority under certain circumstances.”
Christ’s disciples are not bound, not required to remain in a marriage where the partner departs, abandons, or commits adultery/fornication.
“But if the unbelieving depart, let him depart. A brother or a sister is not under bondage in such cases: but God hath called us to peace. 16 For what knowest thou, O wife, whether thou shalt save thy husband? or how knowest thou, O man, whether thou shalt save thy wife?” 1 Corinthians 7:15-16
John Wesley on 1 Corinthians 7:15-16
“A brother or a sister – A Christian man or woman. Is not enslaved – is at full liberty. In such cases: but God hath called us to peace – To live peaceably with them, if it be possible.”
Adam Clarke on 1 Corinthians 7:15-16:
“But if the unbelieving, depart – Whether husband or wife: if such obstinately depart and utterly refuse all cohabitation, a brother or a sister – a Christian man or woman, is not under bondage to any particular laws, so as to be prevented from remarrying.”
Dake on 1 Corinthians 7:15-16:
“[if the unbelieving depart, let him depart. A brother or a sister is not under bondage in such cases: but God hath called us to peace] Here we have another legal and scriptural reason for divorce and remarriage. If the unbeliever refuses to live with a wife or husband because of Christianity and if he or she is determined to leave on this account, the Christian is not under further marriage bonds and is not held responsible or punished by requirement to remain single the rest of his or her life because of the rebellion of another. The Christian is to submit to the breaking of the marriage covenant under such circumstances.”
One of the characteristics of false teachers is laying undue burdens on other by way of their falsities.
“For they bind heavy burdens and grievous to be borne, and lay them on men’s shoulders; but they themselves will not move them with one of their fingers.” Matthew 23:4
Read Matthew 23 for the most severe lambasting on record from Christ.
“Stand fast therefore in the liberty wherewith Christ hath made us free, and be not entangled again with the yoke of bondage.” Galatians 5:1
Lies, heresies, half-truths will bring one into bondage. Jesus says His truth makes free those who receive and obey it.
“Then said Jesus to those Jews which believed on him, If ye continue in my word, then are ye my disciples indeed; 32 And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free. … 36 If the Son therefore shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed.” John 8:31-32, 36

IF you desire to truly hear from GOD, read His own Word for yourself. King James Bible.
“Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.” 2 Timothy 2:15
“All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: 17 that the man of God may be perfect, throughly furnished unto all good works.” 2 Timothy 3:16-17
“Nourished Up” – like a wise virgin Heaven bound saint.
“If thou put the brethren in remembrance of these things, thou shalt be a good minister of Jesus Christ, nourished up in the words of faith and of good doctrine, whereunto thou hast attained.” 1 Timothy 4:6
On this biblical topic of fervency, of being “fervent in spirit”, one commentary offers the following:
“Nourished up in the words of faith” is a biblical phrase from 1 Timothy 4:6, meaning to be continually fed, strengthened, and built up by scripture, sound Christian teaching, and doctrine, much like food sustains the body, these spiritual words sustain and grow the soul, leading to spiritual maturity and a deeper walk with God. It signifies a deliberate, ongoing intake of God’s truth, which fosters growth, guards against false teachings, and fuels a believer’s life.” (Source?)
It’s one thing to have a mere human giving you encouragement and yet another thing to get your encouragement, your spiritual nourishment from God—directly. King James Bible.

Psalms 73
“Truly God is good to Israel, even to such as are of a clean heart.
2 But as for me, my feet were almost gone; my steps had well nigh slipped.
3 For I was envious at the foolish, when I saw the prosperity of the wicked.
4 For there are no bands in their death: but their strength is firm.
5 They are not in trouble as other men; neither are they plagued like other men.
6 Therefore pride compasseth them about as a chain; violence covereth them as a garment.
7 Their eyes stand out with fatness: they have more than heart could wish.
8 They are corrupt, and speak wickedly concerning oppression: they speak loftily.
9 They set their mouth against the heavens, and their tongue walketh through the earth.
10 Therefore his people return hither: and waters of a full cup are wrung out to them.
11 And they say, How doth God know? and is there knowledge in the most High?
12 Behold, these are the ungodly, who prosper in the world; they increase in riches.
13 Verily I have cleansed my heart in vain, and washed my hands in innocency.
14 For all the day long have I been plagued, and chastened every morning.
15 If I say, I will speak thus; behold, I should offend against the generation of thy children.
16 When I thought to know this, it was too painful for me;
17 Until I went into the sanctuary of God; then understood I their end.
18 Surely thou didst set them in slippery places: thou castedst them down into destruction.
19 How are they brought into desolation, as in a moment! they are utterly consumed with terrors.
20 As a dream when one awaketh; so, O Lord, when thou awakest, thou shalt despise their image.
21 Thus my heart was grieved, and I was pricked in my reins.
22 So foolish was I, and ignorant: I was as a beast before thee.
23 Nevertheless I am continually with thee: thou hast holden me by my right hand.
24 Thou shalt guide me with thy counsel, and afterward receive me to glory.
25 Whom have I in heaven but thee? and there is none upon earth that I desire beside thee.
26 My flesh and my heart faileth: but God is the strength of my heart, and my portion for ever.
27 For, lo, they that are far from thee shall perish: thou hast destroyed all them that go a whoring from thee.
28 But it is good for me to draw near to God: I have put my trust in the Lord GOD, that I may declare all thy works.”

“Fervent in Spirit” [podcast]
“Not slothful in business; fervent in spirit; serving the Lord;” Romans 12:11
Concerning being “fervent in spirit,” one commentator notes that this means to:
“Maintain zeal to the boiling point.” Dake
“Fervent” – A primary verb; to be hot (boil, of liquids; or glow, of solids), that is, (figuratively) be fervid (earnest): – be fervent.
“Do nothing at any time but what is to the glory of God, and do every thing as unto him; and in every thing let your hearts be engaged.” Adam Clarke
“Never let your zeal flag (lag, drop, tank), maintain the spiritual glow, serve the Lord.” Here we are reminded of the words of Jeremiah 48:10: ‘Cursed be he that doeth the work of the LORD deceitfully,'” Believer’s Bible Commentary
Apollos was “fervent in the spirit.”
“This man was instructed in the way of the Lord; and being FERVENT in the spirit, he spake and taught diligently the things of the Lord, knowing only the baptism of John.” Acts 18:25
In all things Christ’s saints are to be “fervent in spirit”:
“Not slothful in business; FERVENT in spirit; serving the Lord;” Romans 12:11
Disciples of Jesus are to have a “fervent mind” toward all saints and ministers of His blessed Gospel:
“And not by his coming only, but by the consolation wherewith he was comforted in you, when he told us your earnest desire, your mourning, your FERVENT mind toward me; so that I rejoiced the more.” 2 Corinthians 7:7
“Fervent prayer” is to be offered to God for other of His saints:
“Confess your faults one to another, and pray one for another, that ye may be healed. The effectual FERVENT prayer of a righteous man availeth much.” James_5:16
Jesus’ people are to have “fervent charity among” ourselves:
“And above all things have FERVENT charity among yourselves: for charity shall cover the multitude of sins.” 1 Peter 4:8
“Fervent heat” will soon consume the wicked who refused the salvation that comes from Christ alone:
“But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with FERVENT heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up.” 2 Peter 3:10
“Looking for and hasting unto the coming of the day of God, wherein the heavens being on fire shall be dissolved, and the elements shall melt with FERVENT heat.” 2 Peter 3:12
On this biblical topic of fervency, of being “fervent in spirit”, one commentary offers the following:
“2 Peter 3:
To be ‘fervent in spirit’ means to have intense, burning passion, zeal, and enthusiasm for spiritual matters, often linked to serving God, rather than being lukewarm or apathetic. It implies being ‘boiled’ with spiritual energy, actively engaged, and diligent in faith, as described in Romans 12:11, (‘not slothful in business, fervent in spirit, serving the Lord’). It’s a passionate, fiery commitment, distinct from fanaticism, involving earnest application and a deep love for God.
Key aspects:
- Intensity: A deep, glowing, or boiling heat of emotion and dedication.
- Diligence: Not being lazy or half-hearted, but actively applying oneself to spiritual duties.
- Spiritual Zeal: A strong desire and excitement for God’s will, the Gospel, and spiritual growth.
- Source: Often described as being moved by the Holy Spirit, a fire within.
- Biblical Example: Apollos was described as ‘fervent in the spirit’ as he taught diligently about the Lord (Acts 18:25).
- Passionate prayer
- Diligent study of God’s Word
- Active, loving service to others
- Bold witnessing for faith
- Being ‘on fire’ for God, not lukewarm”
Jesus says that those in His church who are “lukewarm” will be spued or rejected (Revelation 3:15-16). What’s the opposite of being “lukewarm”? – being “fervent in spirit.”
“Amen! Don’t let your fire die as the church in Laodicea did! They were neither cold nor hot. They were lukewarm. Comfortable! Indifferent! Their fire for the Lord had gone out. God’s not looking for people who play it safe but people who burn with fire for Him!!!” Karen Cochran
YOUR PRAYER: LORD, make me Yours. Please keep me close to You, NO MATTER what it takes. Break me dear LORD. Let the holy light of Your presence permeate and shine through my inner man. I am Your temple Jesus. Shine Your light on all darkness. I love You my LORD. In Jesus’ name.

It’s not all Going to be Pretty [podcast]
“Thou therefore endure hardness, as a good soldier of Jesus Christ.” 2 Timothy 2:3
One of Paul’s resumes of the sufferings he endured as an apostle of Jesus Christ.
2 Corinthians 6:3-10
“3 Giving no offence in any thing, that the ministry be not blamed:
4 But in all things approving ourselves as the ministers of God, in much patience, in afflictions, in necessities, in distresses,
5 In stripes, in imprisonments, in tumults, in labours, in watchings, in fastings;
6 By pureness, by knowledge, by longsuffering, by kindness, by the Holy Ghost, by love unfeigned,
7 By the word of truth, by the power of God, by the armour of righteousness on the right hand and on the left,
8 By honour and dishonour, by evil report and good report: as deceivers, and yet true;
9 As unknown, and yet well known; as dying, and, behold, we live; as chastened, and not killed;
10 As sorrowful, yet alway rejoicing; as poor, yet making many rich; as having nothing, and yet possessing all things.”
You are His. Cling to Him. The LORD Jesus is going to bring you through, not matter what you face (Deuteronomy 13:4).
“But now thus saith the LORD that created thee, O Jacob, and he that formed thee, O Israel, Fear not: for I have redeemed thee, I have called thee by thy name; thou art mine. 2 When thou passest through the waters, I will be with thee; and through the rivers, they shall not overflow thee: when thou walkest through the fire, thou shalt not be burned; neither shall the flame kindle upon thee.” Isaiah 43:1-2
“Hated”
“And ye shall be hated of all men for my name’s sake: but he that endureth to the end shall be saved.” Matthew 10:22
“Ye shall Laugh”
“And he lifted up his eyes on his disciples, and said, Blessed be ye poor: for yours is the kingdom of God. 21 Blessed are ye that hunger now: for ye shall be filled. Blessed are ye that weep now: for ye shall laugh. 22 Blessed are ye, when men shall hate you, and when they shall separate you from their company, and shall reproach you, and cast out your name as evil, for the Son of man’s sake.” Luke 6:20-22
“Through much Tribulation”
“Confirming the souls of the disciples, and exhorting them to continue in the faith, and that we must through much tribulation enter into the kingdom of God.” Acts 14:22
Eternity with Christ, “with Joy”
“For ye shall go out with joy, and be led forth with peace: the mountains and the hills shall break forth before you into singing, and all the trees of the field shall clap their hands.” Isaiah 55:12
“To Make them White”
“And such as do wickedly against the covenant shall he corrupt by flatteries: but the people that do know their God shall be strong, and do exploits. 33 And they that understand among the people shall instruct many: yet they shall fall by the sword, and by flame, by captivity, and by spoil, many days. 34 Now when they shall fall, they shall be holpen with a little help: but many shall cleave to them with flatteries. 35 And some of them of understanding shall fall, to try them, and to purge, and to make them white, even to the time of the end: because it is yet for a time appointed.” Daniel 11:32-35
“Made white … the wise shall understand”
“Many shall be purified, and made white, and tried; but the wicked shall do wickedly: and none of the wicked shall understand; but the wise shall understand.” Daniel 12:10
