    With respect, I do not agree that God CANNOT restore your marriage even though your husband or wife has remarried someone else. I believe God can, and has in many cases restored these marriages. I would not discourage someone from praying for the seemingly impossible.

      I feel the same way. That remarriage is not being blessed by God. To divorce that person is in act of repentance not a sin.

      @@jenniferalshouse8254 yes Jennifer, absolutely. The remarriage is not blessed by God, as long as the previous spouse is still living. Repentance is always possible. As Christians we should always be a people hoping for reconciliation in a relationship.

      I must agree with you Linda. God honors covenant! If they not dead than the covenant remains.

      I agree God still stands for the covenant marriage. Watch Tony Evans (Marriage Covenant). Also rejoice marriage ministries and Faith Marriage Ministries. I’m in the same situation and it knocked the wind out of my sails, but I’m still putting my trust in God and in his timing. In the world the marriage is legal but I believe it’s not recognized in God’s court room.

      @@chadschlemmer6323 Yes, I certainly agree God honors the covenant marriage. It does take the wind out of our sails to see our former spouse marry someone else and for that marriage to be supported by friends and family. I know it is recognized legally, but when did God absolve the first marriage? Jesus said to remarry (unless the spouse has passed away) is adultery. I also appreciate the teaching by Pastor Tony Evans on covenant marriage and have been encouraged by marriage revealed ministry as well as rejoice ministries. Another wonderful teacher is David Pawson, very thorough research on divorce/remarriage.

    It would not be a sin to divorce from an ungodly covenant. The sin was entering into that ungodly covenant.

    I have a question is to how do you speak the truth of God's word to apply it to a situation without it being labeled and thrown back at you as spiritual abuse therefore reinforcing the allegations of your lack of trust because not only did you break their trust in other ways but now you're an abuser of a different sort. The Bible says faithful of the wounds of a friend but the kisses of an enemy are deceitful, and a lot of marriage books say positive and stay positive but how do you address the negative and keep healthy boundaries without being excluding to your spouse or out of context with scripture?

    • @PurposedMarriage
      @PurposedMarriage  3 года назад +1

      Thanks for the question Rey. One cannot control the action of another. As a spirit filled Christian, your responsibility is to humbly speak the truth in love. Their response will reveal the condition of their heart. My advice is to remain vigilant in praying that the spirit of the Lord reveals truth to their minds and hearts. Trust is something that oftentimes take extended periods of time to earn back. Long term and consistent patterns of actual change will go a long way in helping one develop trust again from someone who in the past has been guilty of betrayal. May God grant you grace and endurance as you navigate this burdensome path. ✝️

    You, two, are the FIRST I've heard say this. I've read a lot of standing articles and see comments about being restored when ex spouse remarries. I was never comfortable with that because I did not see God purposely cause a sin to "make-up" for another one. That isn't God. We have to move on. Thanks for addressing this

      Deuteronomy 24:4 then the husband who divorced her first may not remarry her after she has been defiled, for that is an abomination to the LORD. You must not bring sin upon the land that the LORD your God is giving you as an inheritance.
      I think this is the verse Amy is thinking about as she was giving her answer. After a woman has been married twice, she can't go back to her first husband.

  • @michaelsmith1364

    First time I’ve heard something from you all that I disagree with. Scripture is clear that remarriage is adultery so therefore that spouse who left and remarried is living is sin and now have a lifestyle of sin. You all do a great job speaking on scripture. It’s the same. You guys were “lucky” enough it was no other person in the picture but majority of standers due to divorce has had another person come in the picture before divorce and that situation often encourages the divorce. I know my wife thinks this is how God saved her in a sense “from our marriage”. If no one can separate us then really in God eyes we never divorced that’s why remarriage is adultery. I’ll keep listening because your videos are great but this the first time I disagree completely and would challenge you all to read scripture more and ask God to make it clear. Also doesn’t matter if the person a believer or not…again that is scripture. If it mattered then it wouldn’t be said the unbelieving spouse can become sanctify by the believing spouse

  • @gsxrfem5180

    God says that an unbelieving spouse is saved by the believing spouse. Repentance comes with Restoration. Restoration is first to the Father then the spouse/marriage.

      Yes, it was the hardness of Amy's heart that the Lord used to break me and better understand my own flaws and transgressions. Hard lessons that needed to be learned, but so necessary. Thank you for listening and commenting! Blessings!

    When we adopted our 1st son in 2000 our attorney (family law) told me 80 percent of all divorces are initiated by women. Hmmm feminism and victim mentality has been promoted so long in this country. God HATES DIVORCE that means he doesnt want us to do it, that's a no brainer. Obviously if you or children are physically in danger or abuse separate and pray for the husband.. pride and Selfishness is the cause of all divorces. There is only 1 reason given for remarriage during the betrothal period for the jews. Mathew 19.9 9] And I say unto you, Whosoever shall put away his wife, except it be for fornication, and shall marry another, committeth adultery: and whoso marrieth her which is put away doth commit adultery...KJV adultery IS NOT THE LOOPHOLE .. fornication during the 1 year jewish betrothal period is .. joseph wanted to put mary away when he found out she was with child during the betrothal period.. I would caution anyone contemplating divorce to study and pray not seek friends family ungodly advice. .. another potential area for deception is reading anything other than KJV translations niv amplified etc they all change fornication to sexual immorality a very vague unscripted loophole that give everyone wanting a divorce an enlarged loophole to divorce and remarry satisfy the flesh.. all remarriage as long as the covenant spouse lives is ADULTERY no adulterer shall inherit the kingdom.. remain unmarried or be reconciled is the ONLY 2 options given to a divorced person while covenant spouse lives... satan loves to twist Gods word to deceive people from the truth. The truth shall set you free, so if the truth sets you free than a lie holds one in bondage. The church is full of sanctioned and encouraged remarriage which is adultery.. people have had it so easy in this country we live better than 95 percent of the world yet divorce is off the charts.. people are never happy (social media ) is a problem that allows people to be dissatisfied with their lives when they see how wonderful other peoples lives are(lies)..

    Matthew 5:31-32, Jesus said that" a spouse that divorces, MAKES the other an adulterer " To me that implies the fallout if the ensuing sin as a result of the choice of divorce falls on the divorcing spouse...?

    The thing about using the word ex is that you guys use the word divorce when speaking about a piece of paper but than talk about marriage bieng a lifelong commitment.marriage is and never was a ceremony or piece of paper so why use the word divorce? Especially since we never got divorced in the first place hence we are standing because we recognize we aren't divorced? If baptism isn't just a piece of paper than neither is Marriage. What's completely devastating is having your spouse leave you and you cant remarry for the rest of your life because there wasn't any grounds for divorce. That's sounds like a curse. why would God do that? Can a person cheat to get out of the marriage contract spiritually? I don't want to sin but I'm young and don't want go the rest of my life alone with NO spouse. My wife completely lied to me. She only lasted a few months into marriage after the ceremony. She had past trauma she didn't tell me about
