Kay, I know a woman who divorced her first husband then married another man.  She and the 2nd man have been divorced and remarried so many times that even her daughter has lost count.  During one of the divorced periods he took and then divorced another woman. Now they are back together again, and I don’t know if anyone knows if they are legally married or not.

 

This brings up a question: Is a real marriage just a legal marriage? Or can one be “really” married in God’s eyes without a “legal” ceremony? I’ve heard lots of opinions about that. Izzy

I tried several times to copy and paste from the web site and for some reason, it wasn't working. So I copied them myself. Sorry it took so long.

I would assume there are going to be some terms in this list that people may not understand, but we can give explanations. One thing I would like to mention is number 127. We actually know a couple who did this. They were married many years ago, had children, got a divorce. The wife was with someone else, had a child, and then broke up with him. The wife then said "the Lord told me"; she should obey Him and go back to her previous husband. I asked her about Deut. 24:4. I did not know the reason WHY God says not to do this. I do now. It turned very nasty. I guess God has more wisdom that we do....
