Download or read book Disqualified written by Dave Miller and published by . This book was released on 2021-04-22 with total page 171 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "I want to stick with what the Bible says. No compromise." The church has operated on the assumption that all divorce is always sin and disqualifies every man as serving as a pastor, elder, or deacon. Variations from that position have been viewed as compromise of the Word of God. After studying every passage in the Bible that deals with divorce and remarriage, Dave Miller has come to a different position. In Disqualified, he examines the Old Testament evidence that sets the cornerstone and lays the foundation of the biblical teaching, then looks at the framework constructed in Jesus' radical teachings. He examines the finishing touches put on by Paul, especially in 1 Corinthians 7, establishing the key biblical teachings on divorce, remarriage, and ministry. God's intent from creation was that marriage be a lifelong covenant between one man and one woman, but in a world broken by sin also granted exceptions based on the "hardness of the human heart." After surveying the biblical evidence, Dave Miller asks several key questions for individuals and churches to consider. Have those who been divorced been permanently disqualified from leadership positions in churches? What does the phrase, "husband of one wife" mean? The church cannot ignore this subject and must search the Scriptures to seek the mind of Christ on it. Simply relying on tradition or doing what pleases people is not sufficient. God's word is always right and Dave Miller is convinced that we need to take a new look at this difficult topic.

Download or read book Jesus Divorce and Remarriage written by Gordon J. Wenham and published by Lexham Press. This book was released on 2020-01-15 with total page 88 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What did Jesus really say about divorce and remarriage? Challenging the evangelical near-consensus that Jesus permitted divorce and remarriage in certain circumstances, Gordon Wenham argues that while Jesus permitted separation in cases of sexual immorality, he did not permit divorce and remarriage. Presenting a revisitation and expansion of several decades of thought and debate on the topic, Wenham builds his case from a close reading of Jesus' teaching in the Gospels, showing how his teaching pushed against the culture of his day. In addition, Wenham brings in insights from ancient Near Eastern marriage laws, the Old Testament, the writings of Paul, and the earliest Christian interpreters of the Gospel divorce texts. Readers will be challenged by a careful biblical argument that provides a counterpoint to the majority view. No study on divorce and remarriage will be complete without considering Jesus, Divorce, and Remarriage.

Download or read book Primal Loss written by Leila Miller and published by Lcb Publishing. This book was released on 2017-05-20 with total page 326 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Seventy now-adult children of divorce give their candid and often heart-wrenching answers to eight questions (arranged in eight chapters, by question), including: What were the main effects of your parents' divorce on your life? What do you say to those who claim that "children are resilient" and "children are happy when their parents are happy"? What would you like to tell your parents then and now? What do you want adults in our culture to know about divorce? What role has your faith played in your healing? Their simple and poignant responses are difficult to read and yet not without hope. Most of the contributors--women and men, young and old, single and married--have never spoken of the pain and consequences of their parents' divorce until now. They have often never been asked, and they believe that no one really wants to know. Despite vastly different circumstances and details, the similarities in their testimonies are striking; as the reader will discover, the death of a child's family impacts the human heart in universal ways.

Download or read book Remarriage after Divorce in Today s Church written by Zondervan, and published by Zondervan. This book was released on 2009-12-15 with total page 181 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Despite a strong belief in the institution and sacredness of marriage, studies show that Christian spouses experience divorce at least as much as the secular population. But whatever the reasons for a divorce--beyond the divorce itself--many Christians want to know: does the Bible support remarriage? The fact is that no consensus exists among evangelicals on their views of remarriage, leaving many Christians confused. This Counterpoints volume explores the biblical and practical cases for the three main evangelical views on remarriage after divorce: Remarriage is not acceptable after divorce - defended by Gordon J. Wenham Remarriage is acceptable only after adultery or desertion - defended by William A. Heth Remarriage is acceptable for a variety of reasons - defended by Craig S. Keener Each of the three contributors offers his point of view succinctly and with biblical support, and each interacts with the others to help readers come to their own conclusions. The Counterpoints series presents a comparison and critique of scholarly views on topics important to Christians that are both fair-minded and respectful of the biblical text. Each volume is a one-stop reference that allows readers to evaluate the different positions on a specific issue and form their own, educated opinion.

Download or read book Remarriage is Adultery Unless written by David Pawson and published by Anchor. This book was released on 2013-02-01 with total page 138 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Consecutive polygamy (as many husbands or wives as you like but only one at a time) is now an accepted norm in contemporary society. Hardly surprising, since the social, legal, moral and financial restraints holding marriages together for a lifetime have been steadily eroded in a relativist age where anything goes. What is surprising is that divorce and remarriage are becoming as common inside the church as outside, even among Christian leaders and especially in the Evangelical stream. Believers have been outspoken about such issues as abortion and homosexuality though their Lord Jesus said nothing about either. He did say quite a lot about the subject of this book but there is either a reluctance to take his teaching at face value or an eagerness to enlarge his ‘exception’ until it becomes the rule. This volume primarily appeals to those for whom the Bible is the final authority in all matters of belief and behaviour, especially those who preach to, teach and counsel others. The author believes that the church should be leading the world uphill rather than following the world downhill. David Pawson has a worldwide teaching ministry, particularly for church leaders. He is known to many through Christian broadcasting and is the author of numerous books.
