I have moved your post, you asked this in the forum help area where you ask about how to use this site. I moved this to a discussion area, depending on peoples personal or denominational teaching you will get sometimes a heated discussion on this



you confuse two issues,

living and sinning, and going to heaven.

Are you saved, have you accepted Christ as your savior. If so, then you are saved, if you willfully sin you are being a very poor example of what a Christian is.

If you divorce, and want to be with someone else, you get married,
If you don't want to marry them, you don't need to be living with them.
That is the sin,

Thank you for fixing my error,thank you for your input.My confusion is not based on my sin,my exhusband committed the audultry ,to numourous to count,hence my being divorced,currently he is living with a born again christian,at least that what she profecces to,they go to church etc. my children are more leaning towards there Dads side,I searched on the subject and got confused by to many different answeres.

Well in divorce ( kids, small or grown)
Don't make it sides, if they are forced to accept or reject one, no one really wins.

So let the kids be happy with dad and be happy with you, and try not to make them choose.

And I guess why do you care what your ex is doing or what the women he is with is doing, That is their issue that they will answer for to God.

What you are doing is what you answer for. If you are trying to find things to use against him or attack the faith of the women, no one wins,

Doubt it and let them live their life, and you go on with yours

My personal belief is that the Bible is like a user's guide for humans. Everything in it is based on what works best and what will make us the most happy. You have no control over your ex, just over your own life. And judging is a very slippery slope. (Which is what I think Fr_Chuck was saying.)

Often I have found that when we agonize over something it may be because we are trying to rationalize and convince ourselves of something we do not really believe. So focus on your own life and relationship with God and be true to yourself. That is what will most likely result in true happiness.

This is never easy, of course. As most of us can attest to. But it is worth the effort. So take care and hang in there! And God bless….

I believe God can forgive any sin, even the willful ones ;). I'm divorced [ she filed, no infidelity, that I know of ] and re-married, and so is my wife [ infidelity by her Ex ]. We are both Christians and I guess technically speaking we are both "living in sin." But do either of us feel convicted of it. Nope. Do I feel convicted when I'm inpatient, or mean, or selfish, or lusting - sure. On a daily basis. Point is, I know I'm a sinner, and I am too busy asking God for forgiveness, to really bother, or even have the right, to worry about someone else's sins.

God know's when we face horrendous situations. He knows ever emotion, need and
desire you have. Some time it is our hopelessness that forces us to seek God, and it is there that we find our strength and refireshment. If you will let Him, He will take
your life, no matter how bruised and broken, and make something beautiful out of it.
Remember God is working to bring His will and good pleasure to the forefront of your life.
Gods loves you very much and He wants us to depend on Him to guide us in all things.
Seek Him and His ways. He knows how to take care of your X and his disobedient.
God wants US to be obedient to Him and conforming ourselves to Him and His Word the
Bible. I pray you will have peace in the Lord as He will work all things for good for
thoes who love Him and are obedient to His will.

Thanks a Lottt Maggie.. That was very very refreshing... Nice to know that we serve a good and mighty God!

Pray and ask God to give you direction and strength to do the right thing.

Maggie - I don't know if your question is very clear to me or not but let me take a stab at it.

First off, the situation you describe is a little fuzzy. I understand that you are divorced, is that correct?

Secondly, when you ask "IF I just live with someone after divorce,would that be ok?", are you asking whether it is OK to live with another man? Someone that you are romantically involved with? I just want to be clear what it is you are exactly asking.

Thirdly, sandwiched somewhere in your question is this thought about your eternal salvation being linked to the decision that you are wondering whether you should make. Are you wondering whether living with another man will jeopardize your salvation?

I'd love to answer your questions but I'm not certain I follow you at this point. Would you care to elaborate a little more?

Thanks.

John 8:34
34 Jesus answered them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Whosoever committeth sin is the servant of sin.
(KJV)

Jesus also said that you cannot serve two masters (in that context, God and mammon).

So if you are tha servant of sin, you can't be (at the same time) a servant of God.

You can get forgiveness from God for any sin, but you can never get permission to sin.

Rom 6:1-2
1 What shall we say then? Shall we continue in sin, that grace may abound?
2 God forbid. How shall we, that are dead to sin, live any longer therein?
(KJV)

You DON'T have to sin every day.
