Pastor Derrick Lynch continues our sermon series, "The Purpose of Jesus," preaching from Luke 16:18.
Notes in this sermon:
God designed marriage to be a lifelong commitment between one man and one woman.
Due to the introduction of sin into the world, marriage vows are broken.
Therefore, God permits divorce in the cases of adultery, abandonment, and abuse.
The victim of a permissible divorce is free to remarry.
Parties to an impermissible divorce should repent and seek to reconcile.
Repentant parties to an impermissible divorce are free to remarry if their former spouse won’t be reconciled.
Parties to an impermissible divorce who have married another spouse should repent of their divorce and remain married to their current spouse.
Unrepentant parties to an impermissible divorce are not permitted to remarry.
