Divorce and Remarriage?

“What God has joined, no man can separate.” Mark 10:7-12.

Divorce and remarriage. In today’s culture, they almost run hand in hand. In the mind of the secular world this may be acceptable; but what about the Christians who do it? We should know, as followers of Christ, that divorce and remarriage is unacceptable. Starting in the Old Testament, we read in Malachi 2:14-16 that divorce is loathed by the Lord. But most Christians are only familiar with with the newer text of the Bible. So let’s proceed in the New Testament and see what God has spoken about divorce and remarriage.

Matrimony

Matrimony is a sacred bond instated by God to espouse a husband and wife. From the very first book of the Bible, Genesis, we see that a man is called to leave his parents and will eventually come to find a woman whom he will become one flesh with. For the understanding of one flesh and the triune spiritual sanctification, read article Trinity, section “Man: Made in the Image of God, the Trinity”. As for this short essay, allow me to take you through passages of scripture that unravel the truth that God has handed to us in His Word.
