About the book --
The Bible teaches
the permanency of marriage. The Bible also teaches that God had a
purpose in instituting the marriage relationship. The confusion that
surrounds the issue of divorce and marriage after divorce comes from the
idea that the permanency of marriage is more important than the purpose
of marriage. In Divorce and the Bride of Christ, the author,
Dean C. Anest, provides the reader with the opportunity to see what the
Bible teaches about marriage, divorce, and the role of the church in
assisting those whose marriage does not fulfill God's purpose.
Divorce creates
perplexing questions:
Does the Bible require an unhappy marriage to continue?
Does the Bible prohibit marrying again after divorce?
Is
the divorced believer condemned to a life of loneliness,
celibacy, and stigma?
Can God's purpose for marriage be disregarded?
Can God's will for one's life be destroyed?
Divorce and the
Bride of Christ provides answers to these questions.
