Question
If a Christian marriers a Moselum and then they divorce and the Christian marries another Christian and the man dies Isn't it OK for the woman to marry another
Sandra,
I am sorry for such a late reply. Summer time is a rather busy time for me. Now to your question...
It is my view that there are certain instances in which divorce and remarriage are permitted without the remarriage being considered adultery. These instances would include unrepentant adultery, physical abuse of spouse or children, and abandonment of a believing spouse by an unbelieving spouse. I'm not saying that a person under such circumstances should remarry. The Bible definitely encourages remaining single or reconciliation over remarriage (1 Corinthians 7:11). At the same time, it is my view that God offers His mercy and grace to the innocent party in a divorce and allows that person to remarry without it being considered adultery.
Hope this helps,
Elder Greg Madden

In those twenty five years we have only attended one church (Harvest Church), and there I have served there as an Elder for fourteen years. We minister in song with the choir and worship team. I am also the new member’s class coordinator, men's ministry director, and the Harvest Riders motorcycle ministry president.
In 1993 the Lord called me to "...preach the Gospel where ever I open the door..." I have had the privilege of ministering God's Word to churches in Oklahoma, Texas, Louisiana and Arkansas. In those meetings we have seen the Lord save, heal, deliver, and fill people will His Spirit.
