This will give alot of peace to abuse victims.

Jesus NEVER said adultery was grounds for divorce and definitely NOT remarriage! Fornication is an UNMARRIED sin

[Glory.To.God.In.The.Highest]

You have eloquently twisted what God says about marriage. And I see that many here are relieved to believe that they are not in an adulterous relationship...even though they are.

Catering to the world with ear tickling and sugar coating

[donnakennedy]

I think some couples just get married without praying about things first. They "fall in love", get married, then find out what their spouse is really like. People should ask God for guidance before marriage, then hopefully, with prayer, a couple will marry and have their marriage blessed by God. Seek God in all areas, especially marriage.

Thank you for this. Mental, emotional and verbal abuse is difficult for people to see. This was true in my case until I left the situation and everyone said I looked 10 years younger. I miss the man I married but not the man he became.

[yevnv]

That is not good teaching! According to you, divorce can happen for any little disagreement.
False teaching!

[ashleyb]

This doesn't sound right at all. I researched it also. Nowhere does the greek word porneia mean licentiousness. I'm praying about this, and doing more research very important!

[dianegron]

Can’t specify publicly the grounds for which I walk through the divorce path, but I thank the Lord for your words. I see/hear so many women and men staying into a broken marriage covenant that is costing them dearly (mentally, emotionally, sexually, physically, financially, and it’s hurting their children too). Thank you for bringing the body of Christ some clarity, a calling to honesty and responsibility regarding relationships within marriage.

I am not sure about this message. It sounds good and would be great for abuse victims(as I am one as well) but this doesn’t sound biblical. Sounds like a message to give a ‘christian’ way out of marriage. This could be leading people away from sound scriptural teaching. 🤔

Hi thanks for posting . Remember when Jesus spoke to the woman at the well she had been maried and divorce several times Jesus answered and said to her, “Everyone who drinks this water will be thirsty again; but whoever drinks the water I shall give will never thirst; the water I shall give will become in him a spring of water welling up to eternal life. The woman said to him, “Sir, give me this water, so that I may not be thirsty or have to keep coming here to draw water.”

Jesus said to her, “Go call your husband and come back.” The woman answered and said to him, “I do not have a husband.” Jesus answered her, “You are right in saying, ‘I do not have a husband.’ For you have had five husbands, and the one you have now is not your husband. What you have said is true.” — John 4:13-18 Jesus was saying to her even though she has gone though divorce and remarriage multible time If she folows the lard she still saved

[alberthayes]

Once marriage is consummated, sexual sin is adultry. Before is fornication. I'll save the word games, Biblical examples are Joseph n Mary and sermon on the mount. You can seperate if it's clearly needed, but you must remain celibate. Scripture is scripture, you can manipulate it any way you want. Heres another scripture, DO YOU NOT KNOW YOU BODY IS A TEMPLE FOR THE HOLY SPIRIT? pastor. Love to see you debate P Gino Jennings. Your in error sir.

[BennettJonWayne-xwvi]

Agreed. Porneia means immorality. The permanence view actually encourages adultery by removing the punishment for it instituted by Jesus Christ Himself. There are two exception clauses, in Matthew 19:9 and in Matthew chapter five verse 32, and you CANNOT REMOVE THOSE VERSES FROM THE BIBLE. They are there to MAKE CERTAIN THAT MARRAIGES ARE BOTH HOLY AND UNDEFILED. In the Bible days, the penalty for immorality was the death penalty. If the adulterer was stoned to death, the innocent party was not also stoned to death, and would be free to remarry. Adultery is serious business to God, and defiles a marriage. If the adulterer is rewarded for their actions by no penalty for immoral behavior, immoral behavior is encouraged, and accepted as a normal part of a marriage. The unconscionable acceptance of adultery in marriage that is promoted by the permanence doctrine's removal of the exceptions instituted by Jesus Christ Himself are an abomination to God, making a mockery of holiness in marriage by forcing an innocent spouse to "put up with" adultery on the part of a betraying, lying, deceiving, and unfaithful cheating spouse.

[robertb]

I would like to know what Greek lexicons he uses to define pornia. Every Greek lexicon and Word study that I have consulted defines pornia as sexual sin in general

[pd]

He's leaving out the part where if you get a divorce, you have to remain un married.

[KevinUnkelbach]

I just spent an hour researching & cannot find this definition of porneia ANYWHERE. Please provide a reference to where you got this definition. I've looked up the Greek in Strongs, blb, Google, articles, and over 10 different sources all say sexual immorality - not licensciousness (refusal to conform to the Biblical standards of a marriage covenant). Thank you

[darlenegarza]

They put away but she was stoned to death for her sin of FORNICATION, which loosed him from the one flesh law, if she couldn't be stoned to death, and he goes and married another, he is in adultery, and caused his wife to go and get into ADULTERY..one flesh law is with a man as long as he lives Romans 7:1-5..1Corin
7:10&11&39..Malachi 1&2..Mark 10:3-12..Ezra 10..so these churches are full of adulterers ..Hosea 4..

[areyoumarrieddotwordpressd]

Sexual Intercourse is the marriage of two flesh into one. Only DEATH can severe this union. Paul addressed Virgins and Widows in regards to marriage (1 Corinthians 7). Why?

[brianphillips]

We violate scripture when we leave the marriage even though it's dangerous. We are called to pray in faith God will move mountains. If the couple can't pray for healing in marriage then then the church body can pray for God's glory. This teaching is from the doctrines of demons. God's Word says to forgive. Marriage is for life according to Jesus. The only time divorce is permissible is if it is outside of God's ways.... homosexuality... incest... and anything else that is between a man and a woman. Easy test for my doctrine... if the world believes it then it's not of God.

[bethanywolfe]

So my divorcing my husband for his constant drinking, drugging, lying, and stealing would constitute grounds of fornication? If so, I am so reassured about making that choice 23 years ago (he's still at it by the way). I pray for him.
