People need to be set free from the pain and confusion of family breakdown. Coming to Christ should mean hope and healing, yet too often unscriptural myths, stigma and confusion surround divorce and remarriage.
Christians divorce at the same rate as the world, around 50%. Orthodox Jews, who don't even have the New Testament, divorce at 3%. Is it any wonder Pastor Steve Cioccolanti, who has pastored in Melbourne for 15 years, asks what they know that we don't?
In this second of three sessions he opens the four main Scriptures on divorce, two from Moses and two from the New Testament, and tackles the questions churches avoid: When does God permit divorce? Did Jesus contradict Moses? Did Paul contradict Jesus? Can God use a divorced person in ministry? You'll also pick up the rules of interpretation that make sense of any hard passage, including end times.
"We don't put shackles on people that God does not."
Whether you've been through divorce or love someone who has, watch now and settle the question with Scripture, not stigma.
