26. Divorce & Remarriage CONCLUSION
God’s laws on Marriage and Divorce are clear – marriage is for life, and can only be broken BECAUSE OF fornication – physical sexual intercourse – on the part of the other spouse, and even then it doesn’t have to be broken. But ONLY in that setting is marrying again allowed while the other spouse still lives.
