So then you are implying that one is not born again then? If they are in an "adulterous marriage?" Or that there are some verses that are more important to obey than others?

For instance, one who was not saved before they were born again.. if they are in an "adulterous marriage" there is no remedy. God still calls it a marriage in Rom. 7, and 1 Cor. 7:27-28 are pretty clear. It fits with the meaning of the entire passage.. so "stay within the state you are called." It doesn't add, "unless you are married to someone who is divorced."

Not to mention that in the same book, it commands believers to STAY with believers. In the old and new testament, it is very clear that when we make a covenant, it must be kept even to our own hurt! So which do we obey? Under your ideas, God shouldn't have even messed with such a person anyway.

I also notice in the one paper, the second link, that there are all sorts of advice given for different situations. Where if a divorce happens in the eyes of the law, under the guise of an 'adulterous marriage' that there are situations that would be inappropriate to remarry. Where are all the scriptures that give these mandates?? What's up with you?

Your theology does not stay consistant with the new covenant.
