Divorced and how it can be overcome!
After 13 years of marriage nothing seemed to be going right. I had the American
dream. A new house, a brand new car, and a great job!
I also had 2 children 1 boy and 1 girl. Neither of us were unfaithful. So
why the divorce? Sometimes I still wonder, but if you check the PTSD. section
it might give you some answers there! I couldn't be happy and I left! there
were problems and I could blame her and she could blame me. It happened?
I was through, and no matter who we talked to it wasn't going to change my
mind!
It was a long hard divorce. I want you to know that over the years I have
change my position on divorce? It has changed considerable since I became
a Christian, and studied the Bible.
I believe there should be no divorce except for those reasons stated in the
Bible. Those are adultery, found in Matthew 5:27-32. And because of an
unbeliever. 2Corinthians 6:14-18 and as stated in 1 Corinthians 7:15,16
It is also my belief that your personal salvation is more important than
your spouse's selfish needs. 1Corinthians 5:9-13 tells us not to associate
with any so called believer, if he (or she) should be immoral, covetous,
idolater, reveler, drunkard, or a swindler. We are not to even eat with them!
Before you go any further please take time to read the versus I quoted above.
a pastor once told me that you should read 10 verses in front of and 10 versus
behind the versus that are quoted to you. Also you should find out who
wrote the Book and to whom it was written to. Please take the time to read
these versus.
In my walk with the LORD I have met a lot of God's people who believe that
once divorced you are living in sin! You are unfit to take a leadership position.
I have studied the scriptures and have that not to be true. 1st Timothy3:2
states, The husband of one wife. Since divorce is a sin, and all sin can
be forgiven (except the sin of blasphemy) I know that God can forgive us
of that sin. If we confess it and repent. I find it hard to believe that
a person who has killed people, done drugs, committed adultery, confessed
and repented, can be accepted by the church, but a divorced person confessed
and repented cannot!? Is this man's law or Gods.
