Mat 19:3 And Pharisees came up to him and tested him by asking, "Is it lawful to divorce one's wife for any cause?"

Mat 19:4 He answered, "Have you not read that he who created them from the beginning made them male and female,

Mat 19:5 and said, 'Therefore a man shall leave his father and his mother and hold fast to his wife, and the two shall become one flesh'?

Mat 19:6 So they are no longer two but one flesh. What therefore God has joined together, let not man separate."

Mat 19:7 They said to him, "Why then did Moses command one to give a certificate of divorce and to send her away?"

Mat 19:8 He said to them, "Because of your hardness of heart Moses allowed you to divorce your wives, but from the beginning it was not so.

Mat 19:9 And I say to you: whoever divorces his wife, except for sexual immorality, and marries another, commits adultery."

I think this goes a way to answer the Deut 24:1 question?

Not really as although Jesus said divorce was not in Gods original intent, He did not dispute Moses authority to give allowance for divorce.

So if divorce is acknowledged as legitimate by God through Moses then can it be adultery to remarry if properly divorced ?

If divorce does not break the bond of marriage then those divorced would be in adultery and be guilty of capital offense.

If Moses allowed divorce for any reason and God did not rebuke him for it we can only think that adultery is only if not divorced, but Jesus is saying if remarried except in the case of porenia/fornication then it is adultery. In other words divorce does not break the bond of a first marriage.

Why also does only Mathew have an exception? in some places people only have pages of the bible and if reading Jesus` words in the other gospels would believe there was no exception.

Have you read Ted Weilands article it easy to find on google ?

I wonder what is the difference between God's law and Mose's law. Even Jesus says, Moses allowed but did not mention God allowed.

Why also does only Mathew have an exception? in some places people only have pages of the bible and if reading Jesus` words in the other gospels would believe there was no exception.

Paul , also gives an exception in 1 Cor. 7. Paul seems to say that your allowed to divorce if the spouse is an unbeliever, but he recommends against it. I wonder what he bases this exception on.

I briefly read one of his articles on divorce and not sure that I agree with his argument.

It sounds like he is saying that God does not hate divorce but only hates those who put away their wives with out a written divorce. I think he is having to stretch a lot of scriptures to make that connection. I believe God hates divorce in general whither its written or not. Divorce wrecks havoc on families especially the children of divorced parents. I couldn't imagine God being anything but displeased the with Divorce no matter if its legal divorce or an undocumented put away, both destroy lives. I would say this guys sounds like he is trying to justify written divorces as ok with God. I could be wrong, I have only read that one article.

See example below:

The King James Version translated Malachi 2:16 correctly:

For Yehowah, the God of Israel saith that He hateth [the] putting away…

In other words, the treachery committed by these men was not in divorcing their wives, but rather in that they were putting their wives away without a certificate of divorce. In their vindictiveness, they were putting their wives in a horrible no win predicament. If the wives had "remarried" or had attached themselves to another man, they would have been subject to stoning for adultery since without a certificate of divorce they were still lawfully married to their first husband. If they would not commit adultery then these women were left to fend for themselves which was nearly impossible under the conditions of that time.

Consequently, one can perceive the treachery in what these men were doing, and consequently understand why God would hate it. You can also visualize the hardness of some men's hearts and then understand why Yehowah would provide for divorce (Mark 10:2-5). On the other hand, if divorce itself is treachery then even God promoted it by allowing for it and even making provisions for it in Deuteronomy 24. Additionally, God would be guilty of treachery Himself since He divorced His wife, Israel.

Two things.

Yes I wanted to know if Ted W. is divorced or not in his life.

Secondly from what I can tell Ted Wieland is in to this idea that Northern Europeans, and germanic peoples are the true genetic Jews.

It looked wacky but I did read some things quickly, maybe I misunderstood.

Well a question that I brought up once, was if God dose not reckognize divorce. The woman seems to be singled out in the scripture. We know that God was not angered over many wives, so if men divorce is it like putting her away, and when he takes another wife she is like a second wife? But the first is still bound to the man who divorced her. I dont no? If I could afford it i wouldnt mind having a few wives. lol

Yes it does appear he has some wacky ideas, but the truth is the truth and i need to know if there is any merit in his teaching on Moses allowance for divorce being from God/Jesus, and therefore not Jesus` intention to bring conflict with it by then calling all remarriage adultery, which it appears He does with the words "he that marries a divorced women commits adultery" ?

But if He was saying as Weiland asserts "he that marries her that is put away(not properly divorced) commits adultery" then for me it makes sense of some scriptures that dont appear to line up.

Weiland says that alot of christians get it wrong because they do not understand that the not one jot of the law has been done away with, but he is not talking about all the traditions of man or the cultural and cerimonial laws that God gave only to Israel.

I tend to think he is right when he says Jesus will not contradict the Father, remembering that as David said under inspiration,"thy law is perfect"IMO means that God will not and infact cannot rescind a moral law, as it is based on whats moral and good and not arbitually given.

Smd did you read the article carefully, i need proofs that he is right or wrong.

No I didn't I will take another look.

I must admit sometimes if in one area of a doctrine is so very strange or simply very offensive, I usually write everything else off as tainted. The same mind came up with all of it, so why trust any of it? Do you know what I mean?

Romans 7:4--"Wherefore, my brethren, ye also are become dead to the law by the body of Christ; that ye should be married to another, even to him who is raised from the dead, that we should bring forth fruit unto God."

We are dead to the law by the body of Christ set free to marry another. To bring forth fruit unto God,

oc

That's free to be married to Christ, not another person.

hi Parker, IMO you are taking that verse out of context. Jesus says that apart from porenia anyone who remarries commits adultery Mat 19:9, so it is clear that atleast not all are free to remarry. What we are left with IMO is what is porenia and who then can remarry.

    • You are coming up higher in this season – above the assignments of character assassination and verbal arrows sent to manage you, contain you, and derail your purpose. Where you have had your dreams and sleep robbed, as well as your peace and clarity robbed – leaving you feeling foggy, confused, and heavy – God is, right now, bringing freedom back -- now you will clearly see the smoke and mirrors that were set to distract you and you will disengage.

      Right now God is declaring a "no access zone" around you, and your enemies will no longer have any entry point into your life. Oil is being poured over you to restore the years that the locust ate and give you back your passion. This is where you will feel a fresh roar begin to erupt from your inner being, and a call to leave the trenches behind and begin your odyssey in your Christ calling moving you to bear fruit that remains as you minister to and disciple others into their Christ identity.

      This is where you leave the trenches and scale the mountain to fight from a different place, from victory, from peace, and from rest. Now watch as God leads you up higher above all the noise, above all the chaos, and shows you where you have been seated all along with Him in heavenly places where you are UNTOUCHABLE. This is where you leave the soul fight, and the mind battle, and learn to fight differently.

      You will know how to live like an eagle and lead others to the same place of safety and protection that God led you to, which broke you out of the silent prison you were in. Put your war boots on and get ready to fight back! Refuse to lay down -- get out of bed and rebuke what is coming at you. Remember where you are seated and live from that place.

      Acts 1:8 - “But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you will be my witnesses … to the end of the earth.”

    • Understanding the Enemy!

      I thought I write about the flip side of a topic, and how to recognize the attempts of the enemy to destroy lives and how you can walk in His victory!

      For the Apostle Paul taught us not to be ignorant of enemy's tactics and strategies.

      2 Corinthians 2:112  Lest Satan should get an advantage of us: for we are not ignorant of his devices. 

      So often, we can learn lessons by learning and playing "devil's" advocate.  When we read this passage,

      Mar 3:26  And if Satan rise up against himself, and be divided, he cannot stand, but hath an end. 
      Mar 3:27  No man can enter into a strong man's house, and spoil his goods, except he will first bind the strongman; and then he will spoil his house. 

      Here we learn a lesson that in order to plunder one's house you must first BIND up the strongman.  While we realize in this particular passage this is referring to God binding up the strongman (Satan) and this is how Satan's house is plundered.  But if you carefully analyze the enemy -- you realize that he uses the same tactics on us!  Your house cannot be plundered -- unless you are first bound.   And then Satan can plunder your house!

    • Abraham and Issac: Pictures of the Resurrection, Part 2
      Shalom everyone,

      As we continue this series the next obvious sign of the resurrection in the Old Testament is the sign of Isaac and Abraham.

      Gen 22:1  After these things God tested Abraham and said to him, "Abraham!" And he said, "Here I am."
      Gen 22:2  He said, "Take your son, your only son Isaac, whom you love, and go to the land of Moriah, and offer him there as a burnt offering on one of the mountains of which I shall tell you."

      So God "tests" Abraham and as a perfect picture of the coming sacrifice of God's only begotten Son (Yeshua - Jesus) God instructs Issac to go and sacrifice his son, Issac.  Where does he say to offer him?  On Moriah -- the exact location of the Temple Mount.
