Sharon's Testimony of Leaving her Remarriage as she Discovered it was Adultery in God's Eyes.

- Sharon was remarried 17 years when God reveled to her through Scripture that Remarriage was adultery. Her 'husband' had been divorced and his true wife was still alive. Sharon tells her story of how God revealed to her she was living in adultery and she needed to end the remarriage.
I heard Sharon's testimony a few years ago. It gave me hope that there are some people who will leave a marriage because of their conviction about committing adultery.
Yes i pray they will, Amen
It's a great testimony isn't it. It was one of the first I heard.
I was the same as you and the Lord revealed to me that I was living in fornication and I separated, I divorced the woman with whom I have two children and I stayed together for 32 years and I divorced doing God's will and He helped me may I never need sex again HE made me famous through faith and I am happy that I can serve him with a pure heart AMEN
I’m in a church were tons of couples are in remarriage adultery. Good people who raised good families. Yet, in the Lord, it is a sin. I don’t see many leaving their marriage…
@@taniam2606 Grace to you
So what if Sharon exaggerates both Jesus and Paul teachings in her testimony?
Have you ever heard the expression, "making a bad situation worse"?
Have you ever considered how Jesus' teaching was applicable to whom He was speaking?
How where the women repudiated by their husbands throughout that time period caused to commit an act of adultery when they remarried as Jesus stated in Matthew 5:32?
Did Jesus argue that these women where not really divorced from their former husbands?
Or did Jesus claim that the current husband was not their husband in His eyes?
Jesus' conclusion about the ensuing adultery is based in the Old Testament divorce concession (He mentions in Matthew 19:8) where remarriage was graciously allowed as the law of Deuteronomy 24:1-4 reveals.
Why is it then necessary to think remarriage is being forbidden in Jesus' teaching? Why not come to a conclusion where Jesus and the writings of Moses (the premise for Jesus' teaching) is understood congruous?
Do you realize that the restriction on remarriage given by Paul many years later in 1 Corinthians 7:11 didn't exist when Jesus spoke to this issue and that restriction was for that situation?
If so you will see that it is actually unique to force singleness on those who are divorced in God's Word.
Sharon Henry's story and how she interprets God's Word doesn't follow biblical chronology for interpretation, instead she randomly selects scriptures to build a more strict view. A view where a bad situation becomes much worse because she overlooks the simple point Jesus made about what divorce causes for the next marriage.
There is NOT an argument in the Bible that divorce and remarriage are not actual events "in God's eyes", there is only the reality that an act of adultery is the byproduct of ending a marriage before death (divorce).
So in the events of terminating one marriage and constituting another individuals are caused to commit an act of adultery, we still have them married to their present spouse and NOT their former. That would be a literal interpretation of Jesus when He said, "divorces" and "marries another", correct?
So remove the false teaching that the first marriage didn't end "in God's eyes" or the second marriage is not a marriage "in God's eyes" etc, etc, and you have those remarried after divorce married to their current spouse in God's eyes and NOT their former. Blessings
I'm separated from my wife against my will. She won't reconcile, so I will remain unmarried and celibate. It's painful, but what God commands.
Hi do you have people around to support you?
@In2theLight No not really, and the absence of intimacy is still so difficult. Churches are for young families and children. Older divorced men are ignored although at my church at least we aren't asked to leave.
Update: I surrendered my loss of intimacy to the Lord, and I'm doing much better. I rarely even think about it now.
Hi it takes time, glad to hear this. In the beginning it's purely obedience and very difficult with no rewards but as time passes it moves into something beautiful. Thanks for the update. Do you have your testimony online anywhere? Or could you send me a copy of it if you have written it down? Thanks and God bless you in your journey 🙏
I was the same as you and the Lord revealed to me that I was living in fornication and I separated, I divorced the woman with whom I have two children and I stayed together for 32 years and I divorced doing God's will and He helped me may I never need sex again HE made me famous through faith and I am happy that I can serve him with a pure heart AMEN
Thankyou Sharon for your testimony, I pray for covenant couples to come out of adultery and to re-unite in Jesus Name Amen
Is it sin for a wife to remain single, her husband divorces her to be with another woman. Would it be sin if the original wife and divorced husband remarry each other again? There is some Acrioture that states if woman were to divorce and be with another man and then go back to first husband that it would be. Just need some more clarification.
@SJ-po5fg Hi I made a video on this subject here ruclips.net/video/d3T2eQ5EmRQ/видео.htmlsi=qB1LPmeZP4hLDNDK
Hi Sharon im divorced and recently i started watching youtube videos that speak against remarriage. Quiet frightening. I had a boyfriend who still lives with me. I met him one year. After watching the RUclips video i stop being intimate with him. We stopped. We sleep in separate rooms. I am trusting God that he will get his own place. I admit that my ex husband first commited adultery then i Did and that man i had was also divorced he passed away.Then i met the person im with. But everyday i ask for forgiveness. The bf has no home. But im trusting in prayer that the bf will find permanent job and another home. Now i live a celibate life.
Hi I uploaded this video of Sharons testimony - but i'm not Sharon. It sounds like youre making the right decision to separate from your boyfried if you have a 1st covenant living spouse. God bless you
I like your testimony God also told me that im still married to my first husband but he has a girlfriend and kids with her so he doesnt believe me as of now.I pray for him to come back we also have three kids together they r grown now.Its not an easy road to walk but i want to be with Christ.
Great video ❤
Thank you for sharing your story! Many pastors today are not sharing on this topic and indeed themselves marrying and remarrying. Not displaying obedience to the word, forgiveness, love or long suffering.
I was the same as you and the Lord revealed to me that I was living in fornication and I separated, I divorced the woman with whom I have two children and I stayed together for 32 years and I divorced doing God's will and He helped me may I never need sex again HE made me famous through faith and I am happy that I can serve him with a pure heart AMEN
Your voice is so sweet and peaceful and it reminded me of another voice. Then I remembered my deceased Grandma (2016) was the only one I remember talking like that. Her first husband died very young, so she remarried. Her second husband was so abusive that he almost murdered the family so they divorced. My Grandma never married again. I always remember her being sweet and peaceful, even after such a horrid life. Can't wait to reunite with her.
Thank you gor sharing testimonies. I am blessed by this. Praise Jesus! 🙏
Thank you so much for sharing this testimony. I so wish that churches taught sound doctrine only from scripture. Not just about divorce/remarriage but everything. It is truly sad that most don’t.
the big issue is one has to learn, on their own.....as no one really wants to teach this....
GOD BLESS YOU WOMAN OF GOD! You will be greatly rewarded!
Tbh there is so much evil and immorality in our society that divorce and marriage are something I don't concern myself with anymore.
Hi you're right there is so much evil and immorality everywhere.
I wonder if you are permitted to marry someone who has never been married now that you have been divorced seeing that it was not a covenant marriage? Thanks you for your testimony, it helped me so much. I was dating a single mom that was divorced, her husband left her to marry her friend. I knew something was preventing me from marring her and than went to a church that taught what scripture teaches that divorce and remarriage is adultery so I ended that relationship. God bless you!
You are still bound to your first marriage I swear people want to still fight the holyspirit when scriptures are clear Romans clearly tell you if your spouse is still living you are bound to them, you either stay unmarried or reconcile to your first marriage people normally change for the better this is why you pray for your marriage separate believe in the power of Christ but to many people lead with the flesh wanting something new and can’t abstain from sexual sin and end up becoming a whore trespassing there husband sirach 23:16-23 tells woman about being a whore while they lane there first husband got another man 84 percent of marriage is file by woman you get one partner in life not a remarriage only if you are a widow, these so call pastor going to lead many to hell About thinking you can remarry and this how Satan gets people cause pastors aren’t living by the scriptures so people bounce to church to church till they want to hear something that appeals to there flesh i had to let go of my second marriage because it was adultery pastors don’t teach this matter, many are called but few are chosen
Please 🙏 for the soul of m. I Khan he is lost soul who has abandoned his covenant marriage. He isin Islam 😭
Nowhere in the bible does it say remarriage is continual sin. that cant be forgiven. Its not Gods perfect will, but he allows remarriage.
Bible verse to back your statement up?
@@In2theLight God didn't want a king , the people did so they chose Saul , later God chose David , he gave them what they wanted.
@@In2theLight
Because the adultery is committed in choosing to remarry. Once the person
"marries" the first covenant is broken - this is the sin.
Once a new covenant is made, the Lord expects the vows to be kept.
We know the the second marraige is a real marraige, because when Jesus spoke to the woman at the well, he said she'd had 5 husbands and that she no longer had one now ( she was living with a man who wasn't her husband) If there was still a covenant with the first husband - Jesus would have said so, and told her to return to him.
Also - when Paul spoke to the Corinthians, there would have been many who were in second marraiges. If it was important, he would have told them to separate.
( Similarly - we are told not to marry an unbeliever, yet if we do, the Lord tells us not to leave them. This shows how a marraige can be entered into wrongly, but the marraige vow still stands)
@RhondaAllottno , the covenant is not broken. Only God can break it through the death of one of the partners . We cannot take God’s will upon ourselves. My opinions after much study
Why is remarriage adultery? because the one with whom you made a covenant of marriage is until physical death and not spiritual death, and those who do this will be separated from God forever Matthew chapter 19 verse 8 and 9
Great video!
Thank you
What’s crazy is once you learn something from God himself and u know it’s true you can never unlearn it be not believe it. For example yesterday I learned this about marriage from Gino Jennings and he don’t teach what he thinks he simply just interprets the Bible on what it’s actually saying and once I learned the truth of marriage it craved me forever now I know I can’t marry a female who already has a husband and I know when I heard the truth I knew in my spirt it was true
Hi yes I agree once you learn this truth you cant unlearn it. It was the same for me when I learnt it. I've watched others though who are in remarriages or wanting to marry a divorced person turn against me and this teaching, because it upsets /annoys them so much, the truth speaks. Many try to twist Scripture to suit their flesh due to wanting to remarry sadly.
Gino Jennings?? He's a heretic he denies the trinity, he is a modalist.
Wow what an amazing testimony ❤❤❤
Our weaknesses are made perfect in the righteousness of Christ. Or am I wrong? How fo we read the word? In parts or as a whole?
Wonderful message but correction. God made a covenant with all 12 tribes not only the house of Judah
Wonderful video! In Matthew 19:8-9, Jesus said “Moses permitted you to divorce your wives because your hearts were hard. But it was not this way from the beginning.” So who is the Almighty here, God or Moses; His creation? Thus, Marriage is honorable in all, and the bed undefiled: but whoremongers and adulterers God will judge.-Hebrews 13:4. Divorce and remarriage has nothing to do with God. It has everything to do with selfishness and carnal thinking in all of us. In fact, what therefore God hath joined together, let not man put asunder. (Mark 10:9). The marital covenant is ONLY nullified by death of a spouse, anything beyond that is Adultery. Scripture warns that Adulterous will NOT inherit the Kingdom of God (1 Corinthians 6:9-10). Whatever you think it, dice it, twist it, find loopholes to get out of marriage and remarry; it is absolutely a serious violation of Gods’ instructions!
Amen
Good morning, I was just starting to watch your new video today and got to the part where you were talking about the non-Christians not wanting to vote on the new law to allow divorce in 1857. Then it went black and said this video is private. Did RUclips block this or do I have to do something to continue watching?
Hi I removed the video as I made a mistake on the date of one of the bills. I'm recording it again. I still have the video so I can send you a link if you'd like to watch it anyway. Leave me your email address here and I'll send it over.
I believe there has to be a clean line drawn between Christians and the world. I feel the only sin that ends a marriage is adultery. Matthew 19:9 and Matthew 5:32.
I believe Jesus's responses in the above scriptures were in reference to
Deuteronomy 24:1
When a man hath taken a wife, and married her, and it come to pass that she finds no favor in his eyes, because he hath found some uncleanness in her: then let him write her a bill of divorcement, and give it in her hand, and send her out of his house.
I think many individuals don't fully understand the sinful nature of adultery. Its deadly and perhaps demonic.
People insist the couple stays together, but I feel it's up to the innocent spouse and God to make the decision. I further feel family members and friends concealing the truth of the infidelity from the innocence spouse will be judged by God.
Proverbs 30:20
"This is the way of an adulterous woman:
She eats and wipes her mouth,
And says, “I have done no wickedness.”
Proverbs 6:32-34 (KJV): "The one who commits adultery with a woman is lacking sense; he who would destroy himself does it. Wounds and disgrace he will find, and his reproach will not be blotted out. For jealousy enrages a man, and he will not spare in the day of vengeance."
Lastly, I have not found scriptures stating if a spouse commits adultery, you are still married to him/her.
But I have found 1 Corinthians 6:16
What? know ye not that he which is joined to an harlot is one body? for two, saith he, shall be one flesh.
I know a man in his 60s whose wife deprived him of sex for 5 or more years. He paid 90% of the bills! This continued even when their incomes were almost the same. During this time, she had a 5-year affair with a divorced man. I don't think his wife has confessed this to anyone. People view her as a loving Indvidual. He has kept this secret from their teen child.
Many Individuals are cheating on their spouses. With this behavior, they spread sexual diseases, discord amongst family and friends and destroy the family unit.
Years ago, a woman asked a family member to protect her from her ex-husband. Her ex caught the family member in the house with his former wife and shot him dead.
Many murders are a result of adultery. That's one of the reasons I feel it's demonic.
Those who watch porn are also practicing adultery. God delivered me from it almost 2 years ago.
My advice is to attend a Biblical sound church, pray and fast for direction. Never assume me or any other youtubers are 100% correct with his/her words.
Search the scriptures for truth and pray and ask Jesus for wisdom and guidance.
God Bless everyone!
I was the same as you and the Lord revealed to me that I was living in fornication and I separated, I divorced the woman with whom I have two children and I stayed together for 32 years and I divorced doing God's will and He helped me may I never need sex again HE made me famous through faith and I am happy that I can serve him with a pure heart AMEN

What about Ezra 10? Our first covenant is with the Lord... Divorce was the answer to repentance to marrying an unbeliever or someone outside the faith. I pray we ask the Holy Spirit to lead us into all truth according to His revelation and His understanding. God bless you.

I have been married before becoming a Christian and am married now. Should my husband and I divorce?
No.
I was in your situation - married before I became a believer and then remarried after I came to Christ ( we had 2 children). You need to study all the relevant verses on the subject and ask the Lord for guidance and peace. For me I believe Scripture is clear that I cant remarry while my 1st husband lives (I am now divorced from the 2nd marriage) : Romans 7:2-3 By law a married woman is bound to her husband as long as he is alive, but if her husband dies, she is released from the law that binds her to him. So then, if she has sexual relations with another man while her husband is still alive, she is called an adulteress.
1 Cor 7:10-11 To the married I give this command (not I, but the Lord): A wife must not separate from her husband. But if she does, she must remain unmarried or else be reconciled to her husband. And a husband must not divorce his wife.

So if someone leaves a marriage that is not working and is detrimental to man and/or woman, and then has found a good man and/or woman and is living harmoniously and righteously, that is not allowed?
What does the Bible say?
Of course its not allowed. Like with my first husband who cheated and was keeling me, I should have stayed married and died in my sins because according to these legalists god is stupid and unjust. What gets meis they probably don’t follow Torah making themselves massive hypocrites. Oh how thadversaries love ths

I did the same thing,,all because i never knew the Bible..
The message transition is better! People don't understand that every time a new version is printed in the United States, by copyright law it has to be changed 10 percent of the book! The American denominations are not of Christ, but man made systems!!!! I don't agree on a lot of divorced people's speculating!
It's clear not only from Scripture (in any translation) but also from all the early church writings that remarriage while a first spouse is alive is adultery.
Amen be bless
We believe to live apart.. but not divorce... the second adulterous marriage
Anybody can make logical deductions from the things they suppose to be true. But the fact is if you look to the biblical precedents to which Jesus refers (when He spoke to this issue) you will see that divorce and remarriage were effective events that changed marital status from one spouse to another. After the fact one was bound to their present spouse and not their former. A face value interpretation of the law of Deuteronomy 24:1-4 proves that to be true.
The fact that ending a marriage causes those who remarry to commit an act of adultery didn't change those realities. That's not what Sharon Henry teaches. She adds false suppositions to God's Word. Blessings
Deut 24:1-4 was written to the Jews in the old covenant, which is not relevant to us today. We are under the New Covenant where Jesus calls us to a higher standard in the New Testament - he clearly states marriage is for life and re-marriage is adultery.
@@In2theLight Grace to you
Jesus' ministry to Israel came at the end of the Old Testament and everything He said about divorce was relevant to Jews historically. When the right chronology for interpreting Jesus is maintained, the New Testament is still future and there is no "higher standards" added by Him as you claim. Jesus was making an application DIRECTLY to those under the Old Testament law!!
You on the other hand are merely repeating the same false theories Sharon Henry adds to God's Word so that she can extract Jesus' teaching from it's original CONTEXT.
The original CONTEXT is something to sustain, not discard. While Jesus does reveal that marriage was created for life in the beginning (Matthew 19:8), His whole point was to reveal the adverse consequence that follows when it prematurely ends (v.9). In Jesus' teaching He was simply explaining to His covenant people that allowing their marriages to end before death causes an inadvertent consequence of adultery when they remarry.
So the objective question is Why and How?
After the biblical divorce concession (Jesus mentions in Matthew 19:8) there was an unintentional unfaithfulness that ensued because the first marriage was not sustained. Jesus is explaining the paradox of divorce conceded, He is NOT describing a SUPPOSED situation where those divorced are "still married in God's eyes". See the difference you are making in regard to His teaching?
Within the original CONTEXT Jesus was explaining something to Israel about divorce they had failed to perceive. Allowing marriages to end where remarriage was permitted under the law (Deuteronomy 24:2) does not maintain the sexual exclusivity ordained for marriage in the origin (Matthew 19:4-6, 8b). There is an inadvertent transgression of fidelity for life (to each the other) caused in the process.
Jesus states, "Moses because of the hardness of your hearts suffered you to put away your wives: but from the beginning it was not so" (Matthew 19:8).
"it" refers to divorce, there was no divorce in "the beginning", there was permanent marriage. Jesus is contrasting divorce conceded over against God's lifelong design for marriage. Thereby revealing that being one-flesh with only one person cannot be sustained. That is unless one's position adds the theory that remarriage was prohibited under the law or by Jesus. So are you adding that theory to Jesus' teaching within the position you advocate?
If so that will help you differentiate between the new interpretation (caused by doing so) over against the original CONTEXT of understanding why this way of committing adultery occurred from Jesus' actual explanation.
Jesus made the simple point that divorce did not exist in the origin, thus marriages did not come to a premature end. Under this paradigm the exclusivity of sexual intimacy is sustained between two individuals. Hundreds of years later divorce was conceded under the law and remarriage graciously allowed, thus causing the catch 22 Christians now grapple with about how adultery can ensue if there's been a divorce.
So the reason Why and How is because divorce (which were actual events in God's Word) is in conflict with the original lifelong intention for marriage. That's why God hates divorce (Malachi 2:16), because it puts asunder what He has joined together (Matthew 19:6).
So in principle, if in God's design for marriage husband and wife are to be sexually exclusive to each the other for life, what occurs when the first marriage ends and another marriage is lawfully allowed?
Well the answer to that question is that the principle of being one-flesh with one person for life (Matthew 19:4-6) is transgressed, thus causing the inadvertent adultery the way Jesus described. This way of committing adultery was not punished BECAUSE it was not intentional. Jesus is merely making a counter argument against divorce for those who wanted to know all the reasons the law allowed for it (Matthew 19:3). There is no win win in divorce. We as Christians must accept that fact. Terminating a marriage causes one to commit adultery against their former spouse when remarried (Mark 10:11) because marriage sets forth the obligation of being one-flesh with one person for life (Matthew 19:4-6). It's really that simple.
All the women who were repudiated by their husbands throughout the time period to which Jesus refers were caused to commit adultery this way when they remarried (Matthew 5:32). Fortunately Jesus also reveals (in that text) that the husband (who divorced his wife) was culpable for causing her to commit adultery this way.
While this way of committing adultery happens when remarried one should note that there are other factors involved, the primal factor Jesus focused on was divorce. Divorce sets it in motion by the husband releasing his wife with the right of remarriage (Deuteronomy 24:2).
Do you believe remarriage wasn't allowed under the law?
Remarriage was lawfully allowed after divorce was conceded, ironically divorce conceded and remarriage graciously allowed cannot yield fidelity for life as God designed marriage to sustain. Christians can accept this dilemma while NOT creating an exaggerated narrative (as Sharon Henry does) for interpreting Jesus. Sharon's interpretation focus's on the next marriage as the cause for the adultery instead of the divorce as Jesus did. Her "new narrative" has a number of false suppositions added to Jesus' teaching that makes remarriage prohibited (supposedly by Jesus).
Sharon would have us believe that Jesus overturned the divorce concession and prohibited remarriage and now equates remarriage with the adultery that ensues. Creating the illusion that "remarriage is adultery", a common but false misnomer. That interpretation (unlike Jesus') becomes an attack on marriage after divorce. Jesus' teaching was NOT an attack on remarriage, rather His purpose was to reveal what divorce stages for the ensuing marriage. Thus the importance of sustaining the first marriage.
The underlining thought to Jesus' teaching is this, terminating a marriage before death (where remarriage was allowed) transfers the obligations of intimacy to the present marriage which then (inadvertently) violates the one-flesh principle set forth by the first (Matthew 19:4-6, 8b).
Jesus explained from Israel's history that when one marriage ends and another constituted, sexual exclusivity is transgressed in the process, thus causing the inadvertent adultery. It really is that simple, minus all the false suppositions added to Jesus' teaching by those (like Sharon Henry) who exchange His point of emphasis from divorce to remarriage.
The exaggerated narrative with all it's false suppositions (alters why and how adultery ensues from Jesus' teaching) thereby eliminating divorce and remarriage as effective events in God's Word. Creating the illusion that those remarried after divorce are "still married to their first spouse in God's eyes" and that one's present spouse is not their actual spouse "in God's eyes" also. So those who adhere to these deceptions are moved with fear to become divorced all over again.
Christians MUST not follow exaggerations based in false suppositions where fear becomes the prime motivator and NOT TRUTH. Blessings

Very well written. I'm sad for the people who have divorced again, thinking this is repentance.
The same things that God hates about divorcing the first time ( regarding broken homes especially ) are going to happen the second time. True repentance would be to ask the Lord for forgiveness if you feel you remarried wrongly, then resolve never to divorce again.
Obviously this may be painful for the 'wronged' spouse - but we are all sinners in need of a saviour - we are all dealing with sin in our life and the cross paid for our mistakes past and future
If it’s a valid marriage. Many are not.
The Bible has been around for years. Please read the Bible for yourself. Jesus explained this very clearly this shouldn't be a shock at all.
What about Matthew 19:9 KJV
Waht about it? Can you explain further?

Matthew was very particular about every detail that Jesus said. God was cheated on and knows how it feels to be betrayed by a spouse.
The discussion in this video is about God's word nit God's voice. Scripture is clear, it doesn't need interpreting.
😭😭😭😭😭😭...... If I would have known this truth I would've gotten married in Germany to escape the barracks life.... 😢😢😢😢😢.... I may have to return to my ex 😢😢😢
You may need to repent for a wrongful decision to remarry - but to divorce again would add more sin to the situation. You can't repent by sinning again.
We know that it is wrong to divorce again because of what Paul said to believers who were married to unbelievers.
(It is a sin to marry an unbeliever, but once married, the Lord says that they must not separate)
This is because God takes vows seriously, even if the vows are made wrongly.
(There are many examples in scripture)
Also - we know that the life long bond can be broken. Jesus said " let not man separate". This shows than separation, though not the Lord's will, is still possible - otherwise, there would be no need for a warning.

try to fix your relationshi and re marry in the future, its okay to separate and if you divorce try to reconciliate
Based on Mark 10:8-9, can God bring together two unsaved people? Meaning, you mentioned that your husband had come to the Lord after his divorce. Therefore, how can God bring two people together if they are not saved and walking with Him? If God did not bring them together, then who did? Man did, correct? So, if man brought them together, and they get divorced, are they not free to remarry who God joins together?
Also, from my understanding of Romans 7:3 and of the law, if the husband puts away his wife by writing a bill of divorcement, then they are no longer called husband and wife, so this Romans scripture does not apply, correct? However, if the husband puts away his wife without a bill of divorcement, then he will be called an adulterer when marrying another, and visa-versa; when the wife puts away the husband without writing a bill of divorcement.
Hi there are many instances of marriages ion the bible where the couple were not believers. God joins all couples together into 'one flesh' if they are lawfully allowed to marry.
Romans 7:3 is talking about the death of a spouse - not divorce. When a spouse dies the other is then free to remarry.
I would like to ask two additional questions, Q1 & Q2 below, in relation to divorce.
Ezra 9:1-2: Now when these things were done, the princes came to me, saying, The people of Israel, and the priests, and the Levites, have not separated themselves from the people of the lands, doing according to their abominations, even of the Canaanites, the Hittites, the Perizzites, the Jebusites, the Ammonites, the Moabites, the Egyptians, and the Amorites. For they have taken of their daughters for themselves, and for their sons: so that the holy seed have mingled themselves with the people of those lands: yea, the hand of the princes and rulers hath been chief in this trespass.
As I look at this passage of scripture, I see that God's people mingled with the heathen, including joining with them in marriage. In other words, they married outside of God's will; therefore, God did not bring them together.
Ezra 9:8: And now for a little space grace hath been shewed from the Lord our God, to leave us a remnant to escape, and to give us a nail in his holy place, that our God may lighten our eyes, and give us a little reviving in our bondage.
The people of Israel married outside of God's will, and it brought them into bondage. Therefore; as far as I understand this passage of scripture, in order to be free from their bondage, they needed to divorce their heathen wives to bring them back into God's will.
Ezra 10:1-4: Now when Ezra had prayed, and when he had confessed, weeping and casting himself down before the house of God, there assembled unto him out of Israel a very great congregation of men and women and children: for the people wept very sore. And Shechaniah the son of Jehiel, one of the sons of Elam, answered and said unto Ezra, We have trespassed against our God, and have taken strange wives of the people of the land: yet now there is hope in Israel concerning this thing. Now therefore let us make a covenant with our God to put away all the wives, and such as are born of them, according to the counsel of my lord, and of those that tremble at the commandment of our God; and let it be done according to the law. Arise; for this matter belongeth unto thee: we also will be with thee: be of good courage, and do it.
Ezra 10:10-12: And Ezra the priest stood up, and said unto them, Ye have transgressed, and have taken strange wives, to increase the trespass of Israel. Now therefore make confession unto the Lord God of your fathers, and do his pleasure: and separate yourselves from the people of the land, and from the strange wives. Then all the congregation answered and said with a loud voice, As thou hast said, so must we do.
1st Question:
If believers marry outside of God's will, it will not only harm them, but it will also hurt those around them (e.g. their family, etc.), as it did when the Israelites married heathen wives -- the entire nation suffered. Therefore, if God did not bring the unequally yoked marriage together in the first place, isn't better for the believer to divorce (even though God sees the pain that will happen when they divorce) than to suffer the greater pain of staying together? In other words, isn't God more about saving the believers who married outside of God's will than to save the marriage, especially if the marriage is bringing death and destruction to them and their entire family?
I would also like to address the following scripture again:
Romans 7:1-3: Know ye not, brethren, (for I speak to them that know the law,) how that the law hath dominion over a man as long as he liveth? For the woman which hath an husband is bound by the law to her husband so long as he liveth; but if the husband be dead, she is loosed from the law of her husband. So then if, while her husband liveth, she be married to another man, she shall be called an adulteress: but if her husband be dead, she is free from that law; so that she is no adulteress, though she be married to another man.
2nd Question:
From my understanding of the law, if the husband puts away his wife by writing a bill of divorcement, then they are no longer called husband and wife. For example, if an ex-husband gets remarried, the ex-wife cannot call him her husband anymore, otherwise, that would be called lying. Therefore, the above passage of scripture would not apply to a couple who has been divorced, correct?
This is so clear - I'm not sure why so many don't see it. A divorced woman does not have a husband.

It's the Lord's ideal to have a " one flesh" union, but we know it's not always lifelong, as a man can become " one flesh" with a prostitute.
Seems everyone misses the part where Jesus said unless less it be for fornication,in other words, if that person's former spouse broke the vow they made by having an affair.
Yup they miss that part because ain't no way your whole life is supposed to come to an end because your spouse decided to break covenant
Neither Jesus or Paul were married.... Life doesnt end because a person is single!!! Life just goes in a different direction. We have Jesus! Theres always life to be had when we put him forst and live like he tells us to :-)
so you had to sin again by divorcing to be holy....got it.
The original divorce from the covenant marriage was the sin. Untangling yourself from a marriage Jesus calls adultery is a holy thing to do. There is no allowance for divorce from a covenant marriage so if you leave a non covenant you are simply freeing yourself from the sin of adultery.
@@In2theLight Amen be bless
@@In2theLight Any verses that teaches that the second marriage is "non covenant" or that divorcing one's current spouse is required for forgiveness?
@@In2theLight
When Paul spoke to the Corinthians there would have been many people in second marraiges. That would have been the perfect time to tell them that they were in ' living in adultery' and for them to leave the second marraige - but he does not do that.
Also, when Jesus said that we ' commit adultery' by
' marrying' another - it shows it is a one time act. It is the decision to remarry which may be wrong - it is not continuous, the same way that someone does not ' continue to murder'.
Once remarried - the Lord expects the vows to be taken seriously.
( Jesus said the woman at the well had previously had five " husbands" and that she didn't have a husband right now. If the original covenant had still been in place - he would not have said she " didn't have one")
I can give you a verse, what God put together. There is one exception. And I’m up against so much because of it.
What do you mean by your up against so much?
@@In2theLight evil spirits.
@@In2theLightdivorce is ok with Holy God, if two people are the same gender (gay marriage), if they're relatives and if there was witchcraft done before the marriage (which God didn't place those two people together), but the truth is daunting. And so many come against it, instead of obey God.
]God hates divorce so you divorced and sinned to be holy ok...got it
divorcing from a non covenant marriage is simply acknowledging that your covenant marriage still stands. Its freeing yourself from the sin of ongoing adultery.
@@In2theLight Any verses to back up your belief that the second marriage is not a covenant marriage?
Any verses that states that the adultery is ongoing?
Can you actually explain Jesus' teaching on this issue from the biblical precedents to which He refers?
There are several places where it would have been appropriate for Jesus or Paul to tell someone to leave the second marraige, if that was God's will - but they don't.
This shows that ( much like when a believer marries an unbeliever) the Lord wants them to honour the new vows.
I like your testimony God also told me that im still married to my first husband but he has a girlfriend and kids with her so he doesnt believe me as of now.I pray for him to come back we also have three kids together they r grown now.Its not an easy road to walk but i want to be with Christ.
