“ Great Sermon! ” If your spouse you first married is still alive, then God sees you two as still married and one flesh.
Repentance of sin involves changing your mind and in some cases to take a certain action. For example, for the sin of adultery one must break off or terminate the invalid relationship so you are no longer labeled as an adulterer.
“ Great Sermon! ” 1 Cor 7:15 states if an unbelieving spouse desires to separate then you are allowed to separate or "divorce". However, this "divorce" is different from how the world sees it. It means to not be living together but you are still one flesh. You are allowed to separate or allowed for the spouse to leave but you are not permitted to re-marry. The text doesn't say you are allowed to remarry but simply no longer bound to the circumstance of living together. Paul would later suggest if you do separate to reconcile and stay together.
