WERE JEWS ADULTERERS FOR REMARRYING?
#TOLD
TRUTH OVER LIES DAILY
Q: In light of the Sermon on the Mount, do you think that Jews/Hebrews who got divorces according to the law in the Old Testament and remarried were actually still adulterers, even if they follow the Law at the time? That’s a question I ponder sometimes.
A: Great question… I assume His law went into effect when He showed up.
The original message of both John the Baptist and Jesus Christ: “Repent, for the Kingdom of Heaven is AT HAND!”
There was a new kingdom AT HAND.
I know Jesus is greater than Moses. That may be why John the Baptist preached against remarriage to Herod, who wasn’t even saved or a Jew. Jesus is the King of all Creation Law.
If you look at the story of the adulterer, it seems that Jesus is confronting the Pharisees with their own adultery. What was he writing on the ground? Perhaps he was reminding them of their own forefather Judah who in Genesis 38 tried to condemn a woman for adultery – the same one that he had committed adultery with!
Based on the historical iniquity of Judah, and the questions the Pharisees were asking – I would guess that they were twisting the old testament law to justify their divorces.
Deuteronomy 24 was talking about divorcing your wife for “uncleanness”
Uncleanness:
nakedness, nudity, shame, pudenda
a. pudenda (implying shameful exposure)
b. nakedness of a thing, indecency, improper behaviour
c. exposed, undefended (fig.)
However the Pharisees wanted to justify divorce for “any cause”
Matthew 19:3 The Pharisees also came unto him, tempting him, and saying unto him, Is it lawful for a man to put away his wife for every cause?
So that means their hearts were so hard they were even twisting the Mosaic laws that were written to help them with their hardness of heart!
Scripture says that adulterers will not inherit the kingdom of God. As far as judgment and who ends up in heaven or hell, I’ll leave that to God. People have every new morning to repent. They could stop sinning any day.
But the Chief Apostle of the New Covenant is Christ. He magnified the law and made it honorable. He abolished the Mosaic ordinances that separated Jew from Gentile, and He revealed the original intents of the Law of God.
He revealed that from Creation and into the New Covenant, Divorce and Remarriage = Adultery.
That’s why the New covenant does not make provision for hard hearts… we are supposed to have new hearts from God!
Separated or Divorced Believers are to remain unmarried and Serve the Lord with Gladness, turning the world upside down and manifesting the prophetic Scriptures with their prayers and their preaching.
The biblical examples of how unmarried Believers are to focus on God are:
– Anna the prophetess who fasted and prayed day & night in the temple (Luke 2). She helped manifest the first coming of the Messiah with her faithfulness.
– Paul the apostle who traveled with his teams and preached the gospel (Acts 13-28). He initiated the Gentile Congregations all throughout Asia Minor and influenced the gospel in Europe.
🤯BIG THINGS HAPPEN WHEN UNMARRIED BELIEVERS FOCUS ON PRAYER AND FASTING INSTEAD OF SEX!🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
🙏🏾WE NEED THE ANNAS IN THE HOUSE OF PRAYER!🔥🔥🔥🔥
🙌🏾WE NEED THE PAULS IN THE CONGREGATIONS!🔥🔥🔥🔥
