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

MESSAGE RECEIVED:

“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

Swept Away in the “Strong Delusion” [podcast]


Recorded at a fellowship in Houston, Texas

God Himself personally sends a “strong delusion” to all who do not love His truth so that they WILL believe lies. He greases their pole to hell. That’s how personally He takes it when people call Him a liar by not believing His Word.

“Even him, whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders, 10 and with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved. 11 And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie: 12 that they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness.” 2 Thessalonians 2:9-12

“Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition of men, after the rudiments of the world, and not after Christ.” Colossians 2:8

Notice “of God” and “NOT of God”

“He that is OF GOD heareth God’s words: ye therefore hear them not, because ye are NOT OF GOD.” John 8:47

Jesus Saved Jose! Mission Mexico Part 51

THIS MORNING: Brother Mark brought brother Juan to meet our new brother Jose Patron!

Jose was given a stack of JESUS tracts after he said he wanted to evangelize.

Brother Juan passes by where Jose works for work daily and so that connection and fellowship is being put in place.


“WE are labourers TOGETHER with God” (1 Corinthians 3:9) – and what God has us doing is supporting His beloved “labourers” who are “few”! (Matthew 9:35-38)

A FEW DAYS AGO: Sister Maria called for more JESUS tracts. She ran out as she is distributing hundreds per day. So our dear sister, thanks to you who are praying and supply…. was given a new jacket to keep her warm (pictured), food and drink to bring home for her living quarters, a fresh supply of JESUS tracts, some cash (Mexican pesos), and some Scripture that she as usual read out loud and devoured as I brought them up on my cell phone from the Spanish Bible (Reina Valera). God is good saints. May He be glorified in all you are doing to see the beloved people of Mexico reached with His bless-ed Gospel! You are refreshing His beloved saints.

LORD willing, I will be meeting again with our dear brother Juan this week to refresh him in fellowship etc.

“Pure religion and undefiled before God and the Father is this, To visit the fatherless and widows in their affliction, and to keep himself unspotted from the world.” James 1:27 

Mexico: The Land where the Gospel of Jesus is Freely Received

“Freely ye have received, freely give.” Matthew 10:8

As we truly follow Jesus He makes us fishers of men.

“And Jesus said unto them, Come ye after me, and I will make you to become fishers of men.” Mark 1:17


This was the sweetest couple ever as you can tell by the picture. They were overjoyed to receive the preaching of our LORD’s Gospel and were told how to be saved – repentance and faith in Christ, and showed the prayer on the back, etc. They were directed to the prayer on the back and exhorted to pray in repentance and faith and receive eternal life. When asked they said they’d welcome your prayers for them.

Mexico Mission


On the streets today in Mexico ministering our LORD Jesus’ Gospel to many. As usual the name of Jesus was preached in Christ’s love and it was readily, eagerly received by most who thanked us for giving them the Gospel. SMH. It’s no even fair!

A man name Jose was ministered to, received the Word, and prayed in repentance and faith to be saved! Would you like to lift our new brother in Christ in prayer? Jose Patron is his name and we are connected and he’s already been given more Scripture and added to the Spanish WA group.

Jose just sent me a voice recording saying Thank you to Mark and I for ministering Jesus’ Gospel to him and that he wants to do the same thing we are doing, minister to others our LORD’s Gospel.

Here’s a clip of brother Mark ministering.

“So mightily grew the word of God and prevailed.” Acts 19:20


“The food looks healthy. Just this morning I was thinking that it is unfathomable, in my mind, to comprehend what the Lord is doing in Mexico. I watched the video of Mark passing out Jesus tracts and everyone was so receptive. That stuck in my mind, because I recently watched a video of a man preaching the gospel on a train. Zero response! Everyone kept looking at their phones and never once looked up. This is the true state of America. We have need of nothing and especially not Jesus. Rev 3:17. As opposed to the precious people of Mexico who know they are poor in spirit and are in need of the Lord to save them. They know something is missing in their lives. When Mark was passing out those Jesus tracts people were very happy and joyful to receive them, here they are rejecting the Savior.” Karen Cochran


We went to a colonia, to a street where no one was outside at the moment, Brother Mark said “God sent us this way for a reason, for someone.” 30 seconds later we came upon Jose! Boom.

Then came the Gospel explosion!

Upon ministering Christ’s Gospel to him, Jose Patron excitedly shared with brother Mark and I about how God had saved him from dying. He simply needed the opportunity to repent and be saved – and that’s exactly what JESUS did. Thank you for lifting our beloved brother Jose in prayer.

Gospel blessings abounded on the streets in Mexico ministering our LORD Jesus’ Gospel to many. As always the name of Jesus was preached in Christ’s love and it was readily, eagerly received by most who thanked us for giving them the Gospel.

It’s no even fair to have the privilege to minister to the beloved Mexicans! SMH.

ON THE TOPIC OF MEXICO

The Mexican people never handed their country over to the government so that the government can take it away the government cannot take it away because

Historically and presently the Mexican people find a way to circumvent the government. They never let the government have control and therefore the government can’t take their freedom away – because the people recognize their freedom coming from God.

The tax money of the people is a large way that the government controls the people they are empowered by the riches of the people through taxes in order to control and exploit them endlessly. Your tax money fuels your slavery….

Mexican people have a very healthy dis-trust for government. This is unlike many Americans. Many Americans it seems, haven’t learned that the promises candidates make before an election, will nearly never carry them out when elected. It seems the “We’re going to release the epstein files” was a mere ruse to cover those secret files. “It’s all a big club, and you’re not in it.” George Carlin

Thank you for praying for this man, Juan. He received ministry today and is in need of being saved.

Dead, Buried, and Raised Up Daily [podcast]


The concept of a “daily cross life” with Jesus is the way of living that involves submitting ourselves to Christ daily, perpetually, and living in sacrificial service to God and His kingdom (Matthew 6:33).  This is based on the Bible verse Luke 9:23, which says, “And he said to them all, If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross daily, and follow me. 24 For whosoever will save his life shall lose it: but whosoever will lose his life for my sake, the same shall save it” (Luke 9:23-24).

In short, the cross gets you, me, out of the way so Christ can reign. Selah.

“But thanks be to God, which giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.”  1 Corinthians 15:57

How do we walk in victory after Jesus saves us? By participating in the daily cross life.

“And he said to them all, If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross daily, and follow me. 24 For whosoever will save his life shall lose it: but whosoever will lose his life for my sake, the same shall save it.”  Luke 9:23-24

HOW could we possibly, vainly believe we are going to overcome the sins that prevent us from eternal glory without the daily crucified life? Not going to happen.

The cross is essential—the crucified life. Read Romans 6 in prayer each morning.

Death and burial must precede resurrection. There will be no resurrection in your personal life—no divine raising you up out of sin and into victory—until you lay down your life, until you die.

The Bible says we have been FOOLS:

“Thou fool, that which thou sowest (plant) is not quickened (made alive), except it die:” 1 Corinthians 15:36

How could we have ever believed that God is going to raise us upward into His victory, out of sin, until we died? I can tell you why—it’s because we weren’t honestly studying and obeying His Word for ourself but rather following false teachers (Philippians 3:18-19).

“Always bearing about in the body the dying of the Lord Jesus, that the life also of Jesus might be made manifest in our body. 11 For we which live are alway delivered unto death for Jesus’ sake, that the life also of Jesus might be made manifest in our mortal flesh.  2 Corinthians 4:10-11

“But if the Spirit of him that raised up Jesus from the dead dwell in you, he that raised up Christ from the dead shall also quicken your mortal bodies by his Spirit that dwelleth in you.

12 Therefore, brethren, we are debtors, not to the flesh, to live after the flesh. 13 For if ye live after the flesh, ye shall die: but if ye through the Spirit do mortify the deeds of the body, ye shall live.” Romans 8:11-13

The original Gospel is a cross Gospel. Any gospel that does not have the cross front and center, is “another gospel,” a false gospel (Galatians 1:6-9). Reading Romans 6 prayerfully each morning is a blessing.

YOUR PRAYER: Holy Father, I love You and thank You for sending Your only begotten Son to die for my sins and the sins of the whole world. We are not worthy but You bought us with the very life blood of Christ, back to Yourself from a life of sin, to be Your sons and daughters. Please forgive all my sins afresh LORD. Into Your holy, mighty hands I now submit my spirit. Bless this life to be crucified with You dear LORD. In Jesus’ name, amen.
