Yup... you are allowed yourself to be tricked by Piper and McGee... both proven false teachers.
:yawn: Don't blame them that you are a serial adulterer (Lk 16:18). :dizzy:

:idunno: Depends on what the meaning of is is (Heb 13:4). :devil:[Lk 16:18] ...[H]ow do you define adultery?... sex? If that's the case, then I need an apology!!!... lots of apologies!
God brought the right women into my life that did not deceive me, lie to me and take advantage of me and then leave like the first...
There are many good reasons. Can you think of any?
Abuse, adultery, abandonment
Unfaithfulness(this is not just confined to sex.. there are many ways to be unfaithful) and treachery.
Wouldnt that fall under abuse?

Not a fan of Piper.. his theology is out in the bushes most of the time.
I think this book is closer to the mark when it comes to marriage... and its written by someone that has spent a lifetime doing christian counseling.

Luke 16:18 "Anyone who divorces his wife and marries another woman commits adultery, and the man who marries a divorced woman commits adultery.
This scripture explains Matthew 19:9 more.
Matthew 5:32 NASB
but I say to you that everyone who divorces his wife, except for the reason of unchastity, makes her commit adultery; and whoever marries a divorced woman commits adultery.
John Piper is a Calvinist. Are you are Calvinist? Don't you know how to study and find God's Truth for yourself?
She left and wanted a divorce... I did not initiate a divorce.
How does that fit into that scripture?
As a man, during the time that verse was spoken, I was eligible to have multiple wives... and here it talks about the wife being the adulteror.. not the husband.
Luke 16:18 "Anyone who divorces his wife and marries another woman commits adultery, and the man who marries a divorced woman commits adultery.You are trying to put a square peg in a round hole.. it just doesn't fit.
The scripture says if a man divorces a woman. So your wife divorced you. Now what does the scripture say? The scripture says that if anyone marries such a person then they commit adultery.
You keep saying things to try and discredit Jesus' words.
Luke 16:18 "Anyone who divorces his wife and marries another woman commits adultery, and the man who marries a divorced woman commits adultery.
This scripture explains Matthew 19:9 more.
Matthew 5:32 NASB
but I say to you that everyone who divorces his wife, except for the reason of unchastity, makes her commit adultery; and whoever marries a divorced woman commits adultery.
So? what does John Piper's religious persuasion have to do with this conversation? Nothing.. you are just clouding the issue.
I bought Jesus' teachings.And I have found God's truth... you obviously haven't and are buying someone elses naive interpretation hook line and sinker.
Everyone has a choice... you cannot make someone sin... which makes that verse interesting. Maybe you should look into it deeper?
You are still applying Jesus words unevenly.
Jesus doesn't have double standards... why do you?
The only reason I can think of you continuing to twist Gods word is that you are a secret Mormon and believe we are still married in heaven.
