Points to Ponder The clear illumines the obscure:
Over the past 40 years, half the church took the Westminster Divines at their word, "sued out a divorce" (WCF 24:5) and it is now "already defeated" (1 Cor 6:7) (lit. destroyed).
In light of the clear teaching in 1 Cor 6:7, what did Jesus really mean in an obscure verse (Matthew 19:9) about "sue out a divorce" and remarriage?
That He would give us license so that every other pew would be destroyed is contrary to marriage, contrary to family, contrary to children, contrary to logic, contrary to the church, contrary to the balance of Scripture and contrary to the Gospel. Thank you, Pastor Totter. |
