Divorce and remarriage are never permissible. To participate in either one is to commit the sin of adultery. In short, divorce and remarriage are never righteous options, but always sinful, adulterous actions. Death is the only thing which genuinely severs the marital bond. Divorce is permissible in a limited number of extreme cases.
Remarriage is never permissible.
Although divorce may occasionally be a genuine option, remarriage never is. Like the previous view, remarriage is always considered a sinful, adulterous action. This is the position which the Westminster Confession of Faith maintains. Adultery or fornication committed after a contract, being detected before marriage, giveth just occasion to the innocent party to dissolve that contract. In this paper, I will briefly defend and present this position as the one that best harmonizes all the relevant texts.
