Does the Bible support divorce?
anyone who marries the divorced woman commits adultery. Divorce is discussed in several other parts of the Bible. Malachi 2:16 has God disapproving of divorce, but Deuteronomy 24:1–4 makes clear that it is acceptable under certain circumstances (see Christian views on divorce).
What does the Bible really say about divorce?
And I say to you: whoever divorces his wife, except for unchastity, and marries another, commits adultery.” Also, it is important to remember that the followers of Jesus gave allowances for divorce given their social context.
Does God forgive me for divorce?
The truth is, God is more for the divorce than He is for the marriage. But He IS able to change a heart to stop the unclean and unrighteous acts if that person will call out and yield their life totally to Him.
Is divorce a mortal sin?
Divorce alone may be considered a sin for some Catholics, but likely not a mortal sin. Even in the Catholic church, divorce is an option for cases of adultery (possibly because adultery itself is a mortal sin). It does not, however, permit remarriage unless the former spouse has died or the marriage is annulled.
