Infidelity Causes Divorce
Thursday, November 4th, 2010
Is sex or remarriage following divorce similarly as sinful as homosexual behavior * ?
* With the single exception of divorce for infidelity.

Matthew 5:31-32, from Jesus’ Sermon on the Mount:
“It has been said, ‘Anyone who divorces his wife must give her a certificate of divorce.’ But I tell you that anyone who divorces his wife, except for marital unfaithfulness, causes her to become an adulteress, and anyone who marries the divorced woman commits adultery.”

Since many people say that homosexuals fail to repent, would Christians suggest that repenting for marrying after divorce would mean a life of celibacy (as the Catholics preach)?
After all, continuing to engage in the sin is not “true repentence,” according to a lot of people on this forum.

According to the Bible…. yes.
According to pretty much any other legal and/or moral standard…. no.
I’m not sure why I got thumbs down. What did I say that was inaccurate or offensive?
