Divorce and Remarriage: Finding Guidance for Personal Decisions Paperback - 1990

by H. Wayne House (Editor); Contribution by J. Carl Laney; Contribution by William A. Heth


First line

Speaking at the 1982 International Council on Biblical Inerrancy, the late Francis Schaeffer stated, "If we believe the Bible is totally true, we cannot dodge its claims on our lives in sensitive areas such as divorce."

From the rear cover

Not everyone who appeals to Scripture agrees on how we should understand what it says about divorce and remarriage. In this book, four authors present their distinct perspectives. Carl Laney argues that the Bible indicates that marriages are always intended to be permanent, that there is never a need for divorce and that remarriage is never permissible after divorce. William Heth contends that while there are legitimate biblical grounds for divorce, there are no legitimate grounds for remarriage after divorce. Thomas Edgar defends the position that Scripture allows for divorce and remarriage in cases of adultery or desertion. Larry Richards holds that Scripture, while decrying divorce and the pain it causes, points to a God of grace who will not condemn those who divorce and remarry.
