The purpose of this book is to edify believers, church leaders, lost souls, and encourage the victims of divorce and those who remarry including ministers. There appears to be every wind of doctrine concerning these subjects among churches today.
The form of this work is unusual. The main text is absent of lengthy quotes and highly technical discussions. This is to help the newly saved and recent victims of divorce to find the answers they need clearly and efficiently. More than half of this book is made up of appendixes filled with quotes from the most brilliant and highly respected minds of scholars over the past sixteen hundred years. These scholars all agree with the author’s contentions in part or whole and often argue his points. Most of the author’s comments concerning the scriptures are only summations of the commentaries quoted in the Old and New Testament sections. There are numerous pages for the scholars and in-depth word studies from the Greek and Hebrew found in these appendixes for the more serious student of the Word.
Many years have been spent in gathering and researching materials for the preparation of this work. It is hoped that it will make a difference for the better in the churches. Pastors must learn that every member of their congregation have been affected by divorce. It is time we abandon the traditions that were spoken against by Paul and John in the New Testament. These traditions were born out of the Gnostic teachings, and passed on to the Catholic teaching for over hundreds of years. Protestants have been greatly influenced by this asceticism in their own traditions and are still killing and wounding their victims. The truths of Scripture must prevail over the laws and traditions of men.
