Even the "victim" of divorce? For example, if a young man's wife leaves him to pursue some carnal sin, does is this young man then condemned to forever remain celibate like a Catholic priest?


... i.e.: That is, "like a Catholic priest is supposed to be?"

I'm not empirically certain, but extrapolating from news reports, I think the most accurate thing that can be said about bin Laden is that his carcass is being eaten by sea worms and crabs right now and that he'll never be able to hurt anyone ever again.

I'm not persuaded of the veracity of "Universal Reconciliation" myself; however, in Crackerjack's defense, he's "way off" (if he's off at all) because of the Love of God. Maybe he's erring on the side of God's mercies? dunno. Not sure.

However, compare that "error" to those who demand we "fill up our buckets" with unbiblical "works" and "standards" AND live our lives in fear and never truly appreciate the love God really does have for us.

The latter "error" is clearly condemned in the Bible itself (Galatians 3 ESV).

They...meaning both the man and the woman? Just the man? Just the woman??

What if adultery was the cause of the Divorce?

What if the man beat his wife physically, putting her in the hospital, but was never unfaithful? Is Divorce justified?

What if the man was addicted to pornography, and his wife caught him masturbating to pictures of naked women?

What if the man molested children, but never penetrated?

What if the Divorce was before finding the Lord?

well, I always thought that he and every suicide attacker's remains should be fed to hogs and publicized; to discourage others from taking that route...
at least we'd be in control and not them, which is what they're looking for in the madness of their religious expression....
this comes from the the mind of christ..no brag just fact.

Get somebody to read that post of mine to you. Have them sound out the big sounding words and give you a chance to get someone else to look them up in a dictionary for you.

"... not persuaded..." "What did pelathais mean when he said he was 'not persuaded?' Thems such big words!"
