Problem is a lot of you have the wrong idea as to what constitutes sin against God.

In Matthew 5 vs 27 - 28, Jesus Christ clearly taught that it isn't when you fornication that you sin against God but the moment you think sexually lustful thoughts in your heart that you do. Even those who are virgins in addition to those who are marriage without fornication, can commit the sin taught by Jesus Christ so it is vain to insist marriage a cure for such sin.

The way to avoid the sin of adultery as stated in Matthew 5 vs 27 - 28 is not by marrying every woman or person you have sexual thoughts of. Instead it is by gaining self discipline of the mental kind, something even Buddhists have been know to achieve, and this without a belief in God.

Kobojunkie:
Funny thing here is I don't even need to suggest that to you to begin with since it is more than clear that doing otherwise amounts to sin.

So if God isn't for you, and you are not in fact born-again as in born of spirit, I suggest you instead go back to the world and live out the rest of your days rather than choose eternity only to fall short after all is said and done.

Kobojunkie:
Who is telling you to go back to the woman?

And why do you feel condemned when all I have done is tell you what is in fact written in the Gospels for anyone who has eyes to read and learn for themselves?

As for remaining single, Jesus Christ said God has permitted some to live as such for the sake of His Kingdom. Are you somehow better/more human/more deserving/more alive than those who made that choice in other to secure a place for themselves in Heaven?

Kobojunkie:
Living right is doing what Jesus Christ says, no seeking loopholes that break what He says.

Again, as Jesus Christ made clear, divorce itself is not a sin. However, what is sin is remarriage where fornication wasn't the reason for divorce. That is what Jesus Christ Himself said.

If you logically reason out what Jesus Christ stated above, you will see that even the person who ends up marrying you will also be guilty of sin of adultery if care is nor taken - this irrespective of who it was that initiated the divorce. Neither does it matter whether the one you divorce wore the "Christian" badge or not, this obviously since marriage is of this world and not of the Kingdom of God - Luke 20 vs 34 - 36.

Open your eyes and consider tye Truth of that stated by Jesus Christ Himself, the very Truth of God.

Don't mind kobo junkie.

You cannot divorce your wife.
Mark 10:11 And he saith unto them, Whosoever shall put away his wife, and marry another, committeth adultery against her.

10:12 And if a woman shall put away her husband, and be married to another, she committeth adultery.

But, however if your wife decide on her own she wants to quit you are free in that case.

Kobojunkie:
LOL... so you think you can override that decreed by Jesus Christ by choosing instead another doctrine which does not align with what He stated?

Anyways, good luck!

Steep:
you can remarry.
Read my reply to you.
Since your wife is not interested anymore you are free.
That is what the Scriptures said.

Read 1 Corinthians 7. When an unbelieving spouse whether wife chooses to leave the marriage then the beliver is free in that case.



There are two ways you can be free to marry.
1. Either when the other spouse die or
2 when the other spouse quits.




Don't let people decieve you.

Heartbreaking? I thought you said you were looking to forego it all so you could live life pleasing God instead, and according to God it is quite sensible to live as a Eunuch for the sake of His Kingdom - Matthew 19 vs 10 - 12.

Kobojunkie:
Given that fornication isn't the reason for your divorce, I am afraid remarriage is a sin in that case.

Kobojunkie:
Is it your intention to remarry after you are divorced from your current wife?

Also, you sound like you have yet to forgive her in your relationship, do you at least understand that in order for God to forgive your own sins, you have to forgive all others of their own sins against you?
