WHAT THE BIBLE SAYS vs. WHAT MAN SAYS
ABOUT UNLAWFUL
DIVORCES & THOSE INVOLVED IN THEM |
|
The Bible
Says: |
Man Says: |
|
“Let not”
man put asunder Mt. 19:6 |
Man CANNOT
put asunder! |
|
When a man puts
away his wife, she “is divorced” / “put away” Mt.
5:32;
19:9 |
She is NOT
divorced / put away! |
When a husband
unlawfully divorces his
wife she is “UNmarried” I Cor.
7:11 |
She is STILL
married! |
Upon
remarriage, the put away “doth
commit adultery” Mt. 19:9b |
In some cases,
she
doth
NOT commit adultery! |
Adultery
results when the subject of
divorce (APOLUO) in Mt. 5:32a; 19:9a
and Lk. 16:18a remarries another. |
Adultery does
NOT necessarily result
when subject of divorce in Mt. 5:32a; 19:9a
and Lk. 16:18a remarries another. |
The unlawfully
divorced are to
“remain UNmarried or be reconciled.”
I Cor.
7:11 |
It is NOT
necessary to “remain unmarried”
IF the one who perpetrated the divorce
later commits fornication. (Then, the one
who remained chaste may employ a subsequent “biblical putting away,”
thereby ensuring their right to a
“scriptural” remarriage.) |
|
Prohibition
from remarriage to “another,” based upon the state of being PUT AWAY
(APOLUO). Mt. 5:32b; 19:9b; Lk. 16:18b |
Possibility for
future remarriage to “another,” based upon the continuing state of being
bound (DEO) after the divorce (APOLUO) |
When a man
unscripturally puts away
his wife, he causes her to commit
adultery upon her subsequent
remarriage to another.
Mt. 5:32 |
If he first
remarries/commits fornication,
and she then employs a post-civil-divorce “biblical” putting away, he does
not
cause her to commit adultery when
she remarries another. |
