The
specific teaching of a passage or specific verse of scripture should be
put in the comprehensive context of the whole teaching. A marriage
partner is free to lawfully marry another qualified person if the
covenant has been broken by adultery. The bible also teaches capital
punishment for murder. Consequently, we have an obligation to adequately
protect the loyal partner from mental and physical abuse. Abuse leads
to murder.
God did not
execute a law that is binding according to mans judgements. The law of
God represent not an eye for an eye. The slightest infraction is justly
punished by the authoritative pronouncement of death to the convicted
offender. The pronouncement of death to the violator not only addresses
the criminal violation but the miss use of the law by mans justice
system. Mans misuse of the law and the criminal violation cannot
overturn authoritative Gods pronouncements of death. Gods pronouncement
of death will be carried out in spite of the criminal act and corrupted
judicial decision.
It's
logical to reasonably conclude that God is always justified because He
judges on the line of blessing and cursing.It is also logical to justly
conclude that if the unbelieving partner is still alive then God has
graciously allowed them to lawfully marry a believer for His distinct
purpose.Since God has accurately recorded the authoritative
pronouncements of the curses against the wicked, He is conveniently
expressing His divine displeasure for their blind attempts to ruin
relationships. In this way God typically retains them on a leash in
graciously allowing and forcibly preventing.If God did not contain the
personal danger then He we could not depend on Him to be the qualified
judge. We must justly apply wisdom as we collaboratively work applying
the pronouncements in these various situations of unequally yoked
marriages.
Gods implanted law in man represent a gift to interpreting the creation and manage it for his pleasure.How can a man displease God if he maintained no opposition? If God placed man in the garden to evaluate him then it would not be without the tension of opposition. Tension presupposes there was opposition. But God designed man with the blessed ability to administer an open-ended law. As long as man administered the law, he was every increasing in praise and glory to
God.Consequently, our loss of control is anticipated to sin and corruption. Hence, the organized opposition is not in the visible world. It is our comprehensive view of the ideal world.Since we do not reflect thoughts after God, we will act pragmatically in our superficial judgements of the imminent danger of sin and pervasive violence in the creation.
This is why God properly communicated the reality check in pronouncing the eternal law, covenants, curses, judicial decrees, comprehensive statutes and promises. We must reorder our comprehensive view of evil that is customarily under the imminent threat of death.We must understand the good admirably represents God working wonders that are extremely great for us to imagine. We must perceive the world through Gods work of eternal redemption and not process. This is why God gave us the authoritative pronouncements to infinitely protest the smallest evil and unacceptable violence to prevent us from embracing the acute danger.
