DIVORCED
SELF-CALLED FORNICATRESS JOGGLES WHETHER SHE IS MARRIED
Terry
is divorced so she can't be legally married to a man who divorced
her. If she has never known but one man – her late “husband”
– perhaps he could divorce from his second marriage and come
back to her if he had no former obligations to any other woman
before he met Terry.
Then she and he could resume their marriage but with a lot of
baggage.
I apologize for formerly taking
Terry
at her
word that she committed fornication in college. You can see around 7 minutes
and 36 seconds (however, she did not specifically say that she had
sex with another man other than her later “husband”),
she either is keeping silent about a previous sexual affair(s), or
she simply misunderstands what fornication
is. She replied to my post in the second video below, “Yes,
I fornicated (gave him my virginity) with my husband before
marriage, and I repented for it when I got born again at age 45
(19 years ago).” Consummation (or pre-consummation) can only be performed pre-ceremonially through three ways: rape, seduction and consent. If she did not know (have sex with) any
other man than her later “husband” and he did not have
any former marital obligations, she did not commit fornication,
she merely gave her “husband” a physical
deposit (her virginity) of marriage to be completed later by
officializing it through public notice, which she evidently did by obtaining a marriage certificate.

THE
CONCURRENCE OF MARRIAGE IN REGARD TO CHOICE OR VIOLATION OF
A VIRGIN
Today there are many questions
concerning marriage. There are many different views stemming
from social, legal, and religious
philosophy. From a Christian perspective the biblical
law of the Old Testament delineates the boundaries of
marriage: the Apostle Paul wrote, "Know ye not, brethren,
(for I speak to them that know the law,) how that the law hath
dominion over a man as long as he liveth?" (Romans 7:1)
Jesus, upholding the guidance of the law, said, "Think not
that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not
come to destroy, but to fulfil" (Mt. 5:17).
Ancient Israel was subjected to
the law and the prophets. The church is the Israel of God today
(Gal. 6:16). Christians are subject now to both the New
and Old
Testaments. Monogamy
replaced polygamy
in the early church, and celibacy
was highly honored. [Our world is very carnal during the
apostasy and many people have been influenced by Hollywood
and myth,
even sexually. There are many defiled marriages today, and one
of the reasons America is suffering from so many social
problems is because Congress can't discern the necessity of
pure marriage and legislate law to prohibit and penalize
fornication and adultery. The fallen
country used to disallow adulterers to become citizens, and
now immorality is rampant. People need to learn that they don't
have to have a sex partner. The Apostle Paul recommended
singleness.]
Sometimes people think of the
concurrence of marriage only as the mutual
consent of a male and female, but this perception may be an
illusion if the female is not a virgin or a widow--marriage was
also instituted to prevent unchastity
in ancient Israel. God honors moral-sexual cleanliness, purity
and unity in marriage. The Lord upheld the virginity of a woman
so as if a male violated her chastity he was obligated
to marry her [since he completed the sexual bond with her, the
physical part of the marriage unity that Adam and Eve
accomplished, who the bible testifies they and the institution
of marriage were undefiled]. The obedience, moral cleanliness,
beauty, glory, purity, magnificence and innocence of virginity
possesses perpetual oversight and protection from the Lord.
According to Dt. 22:29, a male was commanded to marry (take for
a wife) a girl if he raped
her; and it was disclosed; and under the condition that she was
not engaged to anyone. He was never able to divorce her. The
virginity of a girl is more than a state of chastity before
marriage--it is the undefiled housing of potential reproduction
of life, significance of sexual purity--God honors its holiness
and innocence; and he protected the virgin against impulsive
divorce once having married. The Old Testament Law states
specifically, "She shall continue to be his wife; he must
not divorce her as long as he lives" (Dt. 22:19).

I
asked her distinctly, “Did you have any sexual relations
with any other men in your life? This would make a difference! If
you did before you legally married him it would still be
fornication. If you did after you legally married him it would be
adultery.” I did not get an immediate reply, so I am left
without direct answers.
This beautiful woman may be suffering from distorted views about
biblical marriage and divorce.
The mainstream churches leave people disillusioned. If she had
premarital
sex with another along with her now divorced so-called by her
"husband", she would not have been offering him
chastity, a prerequisite for marriage and he would have had a
right
to annul
the fornication-marriage with her because she was merely
committing fornication
with him. |
