Pops I would say go for it. Sometimes we need someone to share our lives with. Plus even Jesus said it was ok

Very interesting you say that Johnyjuan.

(Luke 16:18) 18 Everyone who divorces his wife, and marries another, commits adultery. He who marries one who is divorced from a husband commits adultery.

So would hate to say it ron, but i would definitly suggest not getting remarried. For there is no actual "divorce". In the vows even, it is "till death do us part".

And that is Jesus speaking in that verse.

wait bro but doesnt the new testament say that we can remarry again if the spouse dies ??? I understand that Jesus talks about divorce and says that you can't get married again if you divorce your wife am i correct??

ok I understand that I read that part all im asying is if your wife passes away then it is permisible to find another woman that has not been divorced am i right?

yeah thats what i was saying all this time bro lol

Allot of people today are getting divorces like hot cakes
watever happend to death to us part?? I still believe in that

You know what I think the problem is lust
allot of people confuse it with love
I have a friend that told me he wanted a divorce
so I told him why he just said cuz he wanted someone new
he got tired of always doing the same woman
so the problem is that we focus on beuty but sooner or later its going to run out and the last thing standing will be love u know?

I would like the opinions of Christians of Mingle 2, verses the of the others.
This is for the older people in their 50's or 60's +.. A lot of us have had a bad experience in marriage and do not want to get married again. Now if you met someone you knew you want to spend the rest of your life with, would you change your mind or make other arrangement to be with them?

Rom_7:1, 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?

Rom_7:2, For the woman which hath an husband is bound by the law to her husband so long as he liveth; but if the husband be dead, she is loosed from the law of her husband.

Rom_7:3, So then if, while her husband liveth, she be married to another man, she shall be called an adulteress: but if her husband be dead, she is free from that law; so that she is no adulteress, though she be married to another man.


I speak to them who know the law. Not the law, but law; know the powers of law. The argument of the Jews was that the law of Moses was of perpetual obligation, but they knew that death released a man from its power. It reigned only over the living.

For the woman who hath an husband. This principle of law is shown from the marriage relation. Death severs it, and after it the marriage covenant is not binding. A woman can marry again without committing adultery.

Wherefore, my brethren, ye also are dead to the law. This principle, under the figure of marriage, is applied to those church members who were once under the law of Moses. They were then related to it as a wife to a husband. But in chapter 6 it has been shown that all disciples of Christ had died, been buried, and risen with him (Rom_7:2-5); hence, having died, they had been released from the law. As new creatures, they could, as those freed from the marriage to law, be espoused to another, even Christ. Christians are so united to Christ, living by vital union with him, being found in him, that whatever was done to him is said to have been done to them in his person, or through his body. The church is spiritually the Body of Christ.

I'm turning 50 in February and have never been married. I don't consider myself "older" by any stretch of the imagination, and I long for a very active marriage relationship. When it's right, it's right. Go for it!
