Remarriage

--- Quote from: River on February 25, 2012, 08:55:24 AM ---I will never understand why people get "married" multiple times. The whole idea of marriaged is to NOT be divorced ever! Yet I hear people tell me all the time they have been married three times??? Do they realize what they are saying? I think not.

Mat 7:2 For with what judgment ye judge, ye shall be judged: and with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you again.

Can't say I'm one, but I've known plenty of them in my life. But keep in mind, women are endowed with loads of intuition when it comes to the intentions of others and especially the intentions of the male gender. (That's why most heterosexual females get along so well with gay men.)
The reason for that, as it is believed by at least some, is because females for the most part aren't blessed with the physical ability to protect themselves from the ill-intentions of the stronger, more dominant male, so they use their intuition -- kind of like an inner "alert" system that causes bells and whistles to go off inside their heads when they sense something's eschew.
For instance, I met this really sweet guy recently (I mean really, really sweet) and I liked him a lot, but I could tell he wasn't being on the level with me, and when I asked him if he was over his ex-girlfriend, he said "Of course! Why would you ask that?" I didn't know why I would ask that, it just came to me. And sure enough, about a week after that, after it was decided that we wouldn't pursue a friendship or anything beyond that, I discovered he was back with his ex. And I don't blame him--that girl's got it going on. Talk about a beauty with brains and sweet. He'd be a fool to let her go in the first place.
The point is, I knew intuitively that something wasn't right and when I found out I was right on the money, I realized this "women's intuition" jazz isn't hocus pocus.
That's not the first time something like that's happened. Maybe keep that in mind when searching for a mate.

I would caution always that one temper any 'feelings' with rational thought first. It's best not to make assumptions. As the saying goes.. Anyway, interesting thought but probably best not to threadjack.

'I hate divorce," says the LORD God of Israel. (Malachi 2:16)
Judge that! ;)

"the Lord God of Israel" hates ALL manner of sin. Search and you will find a hundred examples.
But only God is worthy to judge us.
You may not have sinned in one way, but you commit many other sins, every day.
Mat 7:3 And why beholdest thou the mote that is in thy brother's eye, but considerest not the beam that is in thine own eye?
Mat 7:4 Or how wilt thou say to thy brother, Let me pull out the mote out of thine eye; and, behold, a beam is in thine own eye?
Mat 7:5 Thou hypocrite, first cast out the beam out of thine own eye; and then shalt thou see clearly to cast out the mote out of thy brother's eye.
Try to "walk a mile in someone else's shoes" and you will not be so quick to judge, but instead try to develop empathy.
We are all individuals and our trials are individualized by God to teach each one of us our own set of lessons.
God is not creating cookie-cutter sons and daughters.
