+++MATRIMONY AND DIVORCE
+++Part 1
The Bible teaches that lawful marriage cannot be dissolved by any human power.
“Wherefore they are no more twain, but one flesh. What therefore God hath joined together, let no man put asunder.”— Mt. 19:6
COMMENT: This doctrine is maintained at a great price by the Catholic Church. Of old it cost her nearly the whole of England. Today she loses thousands every year because of her uncompromising stand upon this subject. But did she do otherwise, she would cease to be the true Church of Christ.
+++Part 2
The Bible teaches that remarriage (during the lifetime of the former consort) is adultery.
“And unto the married I command, yet not I, but the Lord, let not the wife depart from her husband; but and if she depart let her remain unmarried, or be reconciled to her husband: and let not the husband put away his wife.”—1 Cor. 7:10,11
“And he saith unto them, whosoever shall put away his wife, and marry another, committeth adultery against her. And if a woman shall put away her husband, and be married to another she committeth adultery.”— Mark 10:11,12
“Whosoever putteth away his wife and marrieth another, committeth adultery and whosoever marrieth her that is put away from her husband committeth adultery.”— LK. 16:18
COMMENT: If one party commits adultery the other party may, under certain circumstances, live separate from guilty party; but may not remarry during the former consort’s lifetime. This is the real meaning of Mt. 19: 9
