My pastor's marriage crashed last year, thou the marriage produced children and the parting seems unreconcilable even thou i think it fell on domestic issues and also the fact that the wife doesn't really flow with the pastoral call of the husband as her pastor husband wish her to.

Recently the man of God was talking about it and he said that he will take a new wife very soon anytime he is ready, and he ask us whether its scriptural but we just giggled and he told us that it is scriptural that we should open the book of 1 corinthians 7:14-15 "for the unbelieving husband is sanctified by the wife and the unbelieving wife is sanctified by the husband, else where your children unclean but now are they holy; but if the unbelieving depart,let him depart, a brother or a sister is not under bondage in such cases:but God has called us to peace...

This actually was a little bit confusing to me, since the wife in question wasn't an unbeliever... Is my pastor right with his assertions?
How come your pastor consults you with issues like this...

Anyways he is very very very wrong.
You put away your wife or husband for the sole reason of infidelity

Very funny anyway it's done way everyone run it most of them will quote what fit into there situation and forget the rest since they know most of us don't find time to study the scripture ourself.

God hates lying but people still lie. God hates stealing but christians still steal, they only have to ask for forgiveness and do it no more.

God hates divorce, agree. However, if a christian man divorces his wife for no fault of his, I believe he should make all possible effort to reconcile. If reconciliation fails, he is very free to re-marry. This is where the scripture above comes in...the unforgiving partner is the "unbeliever" , even if she claims to be born-again

Sadly this unstable generation will do everything to justify ill actions. Marriage partner is a choice that bears consequences. Men must learn to live with the outcomes of their choices.

Mr Man, so u want us to say ur pastor is wrong abi? Are we the ones that ordained him? Since when did we become GOD to judge people's actions

Or u think we're saints Didn't Jesus ask u not to bother about the log in someone else's eye when u have spec in urs

Let all those people who are without sin be the first to cast a stone.

Instead of u to take the matter to ur closet and get on ur knees for him, u're reporting him to the world.

This ur action is wrong!!!

You people are so foolish when you talk about judgment. God is the judge but the bible told us to warn people who are going astray. Learn to differentiate between warning and judging.

Ur PAstor Could be right if he isnot the one that call for the divoce. He cant be waiting for a wife that dont want to be with him. She probably have re-married & moved on. So he. too need to get on with his life

The Holy Scriptures is very clear on this: the only basis for divorce is adultery. He, of all people, should know that.

The worst that he could have done reasonably is a marital separation which should still have disqualified him from remaining in a pastoral position as he would not be a good example.

Not surprised though. Even the Devil quoted scriptures while tempting Jesus...

I am not judging, just stating the facts.

@ Poster

Please carry your bag and run away from such church.

In fact, if a Pastor divorce his wife, he CANNOT counsel on marriages.

If his wife divorce him, he is bound to remain like that forever.

Lie from the pit of Hell.The Spirit of God wont go against Scripture . That will be spirit of Anti-christ

just4now:
While not justifying the action of your pastor which l have no right to pass judgment but for your seek l choose to advice. Brother, Christianity is highly spiritual this is why the Lord instructed us not to judge others because you never know where He has granted grace. lf l want to go by the letters your pastor is wrong but where do we place the leading of the Holy Spirit in matters so complicated as this. lf you are in doubt where your pastor stands before God [if you care that much] you should seek the face of God concerning his action. Meanwhile, many will lie against the Holy Spirit to justify their actions to their own perils still that doesn't negate hearing instructions from Him. As Christians we are to live by the Holy Spirit and walk after the Holy Spirit...Gal 5:24-26.

Exactly. The pastor is already been taken over by the spirit of lust and hence he can use the bible to justify his evil thoughts.

Devil can quote the bible ,but use part of the scriptures that he would want to use to convince those who are not in spirit.

Only evil pastors use part of the bible quotations given to them by demons to justify the evil they want to do.

Your pastor is evil and I pray God opens your spirit eyes to see and know who that your pastor is.He must have started committing adultery hence he would want to use the bible to buttress his evil thoughts.May God deliver him and deliver you people under him.

This is ur definition of "warning people"
The pastor isn't even here to read ur "warning". Plus, I thought the "warning" is supposed to with love and in secret.

U forget u're not without sin urself. Stop throwing stones. I blame the op for posting this. It's a matter he should have taken to GOD on his knees. Why report someone who sins to a fellow man? Why not report to GOD?
