Bro Biblically there is nothing like proper dissolution of marriage.. Only Death permits a Man or Woman to Re-Marry.....

A Woman whose Husband is a serial beater can leave the house to save her Life... but is not Permitted to Re-marry..

If you can't forgive your spouse due to infidelity or whatever you are not Permitted to Re-marry. Except for Death sake
In that case na to divorce and kill your partners abi? Shior. In that case na to marry under civil law. There you fit marry and divorce as much as you like. No wonder some Christian will find themselves having murderous thoughts. To me your marriage is only valid here on earth, to your best with the help of the Holy Spirit to keep your home but if you start having evil thoughts because of because of religious and societal bondage, please leave the marriage to save yourself and your partner and God will forgive you. After all the once’s insisting that you cannot divorce because of religion are busy committing their various sins.

Oh well, he divorced her (or vice versa) they were 28 at the time with no kids. Most people would rather get on with their life and remarry than wait for their ex to die, while some might just kill the ex if they believe they shouldn't remarry till ex dies.

Wasn't Jesus just against divorce anyway?

If it’s about Chris Attoh, I think they had a son.

The Bible condemns re-marrying when your spouse is still alive; but why do some pastors encourage it?? Are they reading newspaper or the Bible?? Some churches even join couples who have divorced and spouse is still alive..

The only supported re-marriage is when ones spouse is dead...

Add your contribution, but if you disagree, create your own Bible...

[s][/s]Bro , Heaven and Earth Will pass but the Word of GOD will not...
There is No Modification to the WORD OF GOD (The Bible)
GOD hates Divorce Malachi 2:16, Matt 19:6
Re-Marrying when your spouse is Alive is an act of Adultery...


Ok. If you believe that, then do you. Ultimately, people will do what they want. The Bible was not WRITTEN by God, it was written by men and they wrote it in nineteen gbogboro where some practices are no longer applicable in the 21st century. OP, why do you pick and chose what to follow in the Bible. At the end of the day God will not want his children to suffer, the most important thing is to serve God and love your neighbors as you love yourself. Just because you don’t marry again because your ex is still alive it’s no guarantee you will make heaven.

Some people kill their spouse just to follow this your view that if your ex is alive you can’t marry.

TRUE LIFE Story...
A married couple lived together for a decade with out any issues. The man was a serial cheat & philanderer. He infected her with STD.& coupled with taunts from in laws over her childless state. She was heartbroken.
She meticulously gathered all the evidence she needed & eventually sued for divorce. The Court of Law annulled the marriage.

Today this woman has remarried & she is a proud mother of two kids in a happy & stable marriage..

God allows divorce & it's NO SIN to remarry when your former spouse is alive.

God has called you to peace not man made bondage or stigma.


It's simple, if both parties have agreed to divorce. And both are willing to remarry... They will simply commit adultery... Then divorce and remarry and seek forgiveness for adultery.... How bout that?

If you like believe it or not to be a Christian isn't easy it takes sacrifice,a dedicated heart to believe ,obey and trust God's words,when you make the wrong choice you will definitely suffer for it samething goes for marriage cause it was your choice to be in the marriage did God push you into it, On the altar during marriage ceremony have you ever heard your pastor talk about divorce? You go before God to make vows,swear to one another that till death do you apart,then you go behind God to disengage the union,God is not man and can never be decieved,mind you if God supported divorce then there should be a ceremony called divorce in Christianity conducted by same pastor who joined you together along with all who witness to your vows before God, man will always look for a cheap way to please him or herself rather than to please the creator,once you make your choice in marriage in Christianity no turning back this makes us different from others face your problem together and solve it forgive one another of anything if you can't forgive whatever your spouse does then you aren't a christian.

Matt 19:6-9
v9"I tell you that anyone who divorces his wife, EXCEPT FOR MARITAL UNFAITHFULNESS, and marries another woman commits adultery"

From a biblical standpoint, Jesus himself approved divorce when one or both spouses goes outside the marriage arena , which violates the marriage union (Hebrew 13:4. 1 Cor 7:2).
You just satisfied the world by your teachings which which varies with the Bible view point

The other option is forgiveness, if U don't wanna go the divorce route (Col 3:12-14) "Bear with each other & forgive whatever grievances you may have against another."

Pls shine your eyes here.... with understanding.
If a spouse quits his /her marriage, to carry on with another woman/man, that spouse is guilty of defilement of the marriage union. He is an unbeliever (who no longer believes in) your marriage,so let him/her go. Nsogbu adighi.
Pls Go obtain a legal divorce & set yourself free to remarry again.

"But if an unbeliever leaves, let him/her do so. A believing man or woman is NOT BOUND IN SUCH CIRCUMSTANCES. " 1 Cor 7:15.

Because she divorced a serial cheat & Casanova, make she no marry again ?
Dump that crap into a dustbin!!!
.
Go & marry again. It's your God-given right. "For God has called you to live in peace".
NOT in pieces of emotional trauma ,man made induced guilt & stigma.

adisababa1234:

But sir there was exception (fornication) with that verse .
please I'll like to understand better

From The Scriptures, it says Except it be for Fornication.
What is Fornication? Fornication is Sexual intercourse between people not married to themselves.
Fornication is Infidelity ..

A man who finds his wife on bed with another man , will definitely get mad, angry and all that.

Now, if that happens in Marriage and The Man cannot bare it and forgive the Woman. If he chases such a woman , He is not permitted to get Married to Any Other Woman. Except at the death of that His lawfully wedded wife who he chased out!

Look at Luke 16:18 for clearer explanation

Whosoever putteth away his wife, and marrieth another, committeth adultery: and whosoever marrieth her that is put away from her husband committeth Adultery
Re: Re-marriage When Ones Spouse Is Still Alive.. by Righteousness89(m): 2:27pm On Oct 07, 2018
Chineke1stSon:

The keyword here is EXCEPT...it means except a partner was divorced on the grounds of adultery then it will be wrong for the partner who was wronged(cheated upon) to remarry..it is as clear as day in that passage.
You are still confusing yourself..
Take a simpler version of the Bible so u understand..

The Only Reason Permitted for a Man to Re-marry is Death.. no other!!

Sorry sir, u did comprehension in school, right?

This part, read it slowly again 'except it be for fornication, and shall marry another, committeth adultery'

Now let me ask u sir... According to Jesus... Do u still commit a sin if u divorce and marry another wife or another husband if it's because of fornication ur spouse commit?
Let me Explain this Simply:
Separation and Remarry are the 2 things here.

That Scripture says Except it be for Fornication you are not permitted to Seprate ( Put away your spouse)

If you cannot Forgive and you go ahead to Remarry someone else you are committing Adultery!

Look at Luke 16:18

Whosoever putteth away his wife, and marrieth another, committeth adultery: and whosoever marrieth her that is put away from her husband committeth Adultery
