You need to find divorce in the New Covenant. It's not there. Paul only tells believers to remain single if an unbeliever divorces them. “And unto the married I command, yet not I, but the Lord, Let not the wife depart from her husband: But and if she depart, let her remain unmarried, or be reconciled to her husband: and let not the husband put away his wife.” (1 Corinthians 7:10–11)
Apples to dump trucks.
If a person is married and divorced as an unbeliever, conversion to Christ does not change that. Any subsequent remarriage is adultery.
That has been forgiven. They are no longer in adultery.
But can he remain drunk and follow Christ?
Marriage is for life. Repentance leads to reconciliation or celibacy. Not Adultery.
I am talking about someone who divorced and then remarried before conversion. That sin, it’s a sin if they left their spouse after cheating with someone else, is blotted out by the blood of the Lamb.
What sins have you been forced to commit again?
Marriage is for life. Any remarriage is adultery needing repentance.
What's your point?
Repentance = not living in adultery which is the case for any divorced and remarried.
My point is you won’t answer my question, and that shows a GAPING hole in your argument.
Jesus tells adulterers to repent.He expects lost ppl to act like Christians even while they’re lost.
So, a lost person divorces and remarries. Five years later they desire to be saved and you expect God to withhold grace from them.
And when they repent you expect them to commit another sin by divorcing the one they’re married to.
There are no holes in my argument. Adultery is adultery all must repent of.
