I don't deny I could be crazy. However, if you peek into any church today, there is wide acceptance of divorce/remarriage - even in the leadership. Why else is the rate of divorce/remarriage in the Church not much different than outside the Church? It is as Christ said, due to the hardness of the heart. We do not hold ourselves to a standard that is much different than the world.
Most divorced Christians I know are repentant and respect the Bible, IOW they do not demand the rules be rearranged to condone and celebrate their unrepentant perverted lifestyle choice. Should the Church also grant credence to incestuous relations and child sacrifice as well?
I am advocating the Church leadership call adultery the sin that it is, just as adamantly as we call homosexuality a sin.
I also know many Christian divorcees who are repentent and do not wish to change scripture. However, I know many who are unaware of the connection Christ made between divorce/remarriage and adultery. Perhaps they would have worked a little more at reconciliation had they known that remarrying someone else results in them living in adultery? I also know many in Church leadership who condone this choice and remarry others so divorced. What is the difference between enabling a couple to live an adulterous lifestyle and enabling a same-sex couple to live in homosexuality? Both are sin in the eyes of God. Both result in broken lives and broken families. Both result in potential ministry that is dimished from what "could have been". The Israelites wandered the desert for 40 years because of their hardness of heart - it did not have to be this way. THAT is my message - my heart breaks over the choices CHRISTIANS make that make their lives SO much more difficult and hurts so many people around them.
