We are always on shaky ground if we begin to seek ways to ignore what the Word of God teaches on divorce and remarriage. There are at least eight relevant Scripture portions that need to be studied. These passages give overwhelming evidence for the permanency of God's institution of marriage. There are a number of Bible commands that divorce always violates. The Word of God gives no license under any condition for anyone to remarry as long as he or she has a former living companion.
Marriage is a serious step.
The vows are witnessed on earth and they are recorded in Heaven. The Bible teaches that marriage is a lifetime contract, never to be broken except by death. The Bible teaching on this topic needs to be clearly presented so that young people will be more careful in choosing a mate, and so that married couples will strive harder to make the adjustments needed to save their marriages.
