    Default Divorce is a sin?

    Is divorce really considered a sin?

    if so i got a question.


    If its a sin, lets say hypothetical here: Bob and Jane get divorced, but Bob did not want to because of reasons. Jane is the one who wants divorce. Bob has been the model husband, never strayed, never lusted, etc... So if its a sin to divorce would both Bob and Jane have sinned?

    That is correct, except if THEY (spouse) cheat you can divorce. If you cheat thats another matter.

    The Bible is clear on that, divorce is only "allowed" when adultery is committed. However, Christ taught to forgive without end...70 X 7 times as He put it, so that is a principle to remember too.

    The answer was given...more or less. Divorce for ANY reason other then adultrey is something ( a sin) any person will have to answer for...according to Scripture.

    However a person who's spouse leaves them for no reason that is their fault is not a sinner because theyve been divorced by their spouse. According to the Bible they should have forgiven and worked to preserve their marriage but if the other person has a hardened heart thats on them.

    When discussing this question people who have been divorced in the past often get offended. They shouldnt. Any sin can be forgiven by God...and the sincerity of the repentant sinner will be judged by God.
