THERE IS NO REVERSE GEAR IN MARRIAGE

God bless you for taking the time to study.

TOPIC:  THERE IS NO REVERSE GEAR IN MARRIAGE

TEXT: MARK 10:10-12 

SUNDAY APRIL 16TH 

KEY VERSE: “The wife is bound by the law as long as her husband liveth; but if her husband is dead, she is at liberty to be married to whom she will; only in the Lord.” (1 Corinthians 7:39).
The law of marriage binds a husband to his wife and the wife to her husband as long as both of them are still alive. Divorce and remarriage to another person are not allowed. Whoever divorces and remarries when the marriage partner is still alive has no part in the kingdom of God. He or she is committing adultery. 
“For the woman which hath a husband is bound by the law to her husband so long as he liveth; but if the husband is dead, she is loosed from the law of her husband. So then if, while her husband liveth, she be married to another man, she shall be called an adulteress: but if the husband is dead, she is free from that law; so that she is no adulteress, though she be married to another man.” Romans 7:2-3. 
If you are married to another person apart from your first scripturally binding marriage partner, you are in a wrong relationship and must dissolve it, if you want to please God. You should go back to your first lawfully marriage partner or stay unmarried. There are those who say that adultery committed by one of the partners in a marriage can result to divorce and remarriage. This is a wrong interpretation of the scriptures. The issue being referred to here as basis of divorce is fornication, not adultery. Unfortunately, some Bible translations replace the word fornication with marital unchastely. Fornication is a sin which is committed by someone who has not yet entered into the marriage union. The word of God settles this matter that under the present dispensation, no sin can cause divorce. If adultery can, then other sins including lying or stealing can as well. They cannot be separated because the two have become one according to scripture. Those who desire to marry should study issues well so that the do not marry someone already married and get damned due to immorality. If you have married wrongly, such ungodly marriage must be dissolved.

Thought for the day:  Look well before marriage and stay on once married. 

Song for the day: When we walk with the Lord in the light of His Word

Bible reading for the day: 1 Samuel 19-21; Luke 15:11-32

Every Word Of God For Daily Living For taking your time to study remain blessed July Tuesday 9th TOPIC: WE ARE IN THE TWILIGHT HOUR OF RAPTURE TEXT: Ephesians 5:26-27 KEY VERSE: Hebrews 9:28 So Christ was once offered to bear the sins of many; and unto them that look for him shall he appear the second time without sin unto salvation. Seeing the traces of the features of the next dispensation in this present dispensation, you should know that you are in the twilight hour. What is a twilight hour? A twilight hour is that hour of the day that you begin to see the traces of the night while it is still daylight (probably 7:00pm to 7:30pm). It is not completely dark, yet it is not complete bright either. While it is still day, you are seeing the traces of the night. A twilight hour is the hour when you are still in this dispensation but you are already seeing traces of the next. The twilight hour is the time that our Lord Jesus Christ was born and even though He came with the New Test...
