Greetings Brother! I have addressed a very touchy subject for many but I believe what I have written is Biblical and is posted on our church facebook page but I’m sharing it with you privately for your consideration if you would like to share it with others through your different sites. I’ll send it in Messenger to you.

All-star contributor · May 1 at 11:20 AM · “Think on these things “and these things need to be taught! – Pastor Randy Here’s what’s been on my mind so let me share: BLAMELESS, A word many Christians refuse to use concerning fellow forgiven saved brethren who were divorced prior to salvation. Last time I checked, I don’t care who you are, before salvation, ALL are dead in trespasses and sins. ALL had not the life of God in them and yet there are those who say “well marriage was instituted first and God holds all accountable to live up to its standard.”(or something similar).May I in my ignorance ask: “When is a dead person capable of doing anything without the aid of the Holy Ghost?”Furthermore, that first marriage was between two people made new (I’ll let you muse on that, yourself). I’m so saddened that so many who have been made righteous by the blood of the Lamb live in condemnation because others won’t accept that divorced people have had their shackles removed at the same Cross you and I did! What meaneth “If the Son therefore shall make you free, YE SHALL BE FREE INDEED?”I find it tragic that a murderer (Paul, David), a harlot (Rahab), a pedophile (1Cor.6:9-11 “…such were some of you BUT YE ARE WASHED…”) and yet a divorce is stained beyond hope of being washed by the blood of the Lamb and profitable for ministering
Have we forgotten the definition of Blameless from its first use in Scripture? Gen.44:10:“innocent”{blameless} {clean} {clear} {exempted} {free} {guiltless}.Brother, Sister, where are thine accusers? (I think the Son of God asked that, right?).Believer’s need to be set free from the words from the pit of hell: “I’m divorced therefore I must never serve God in any teaching ministry in my church.”My wounded Brethren, don’t let “the accuser of the brethren” (Rev.12:10), weaponize those memories in your mind and get you to think you’ve crossed a line God will never fully erase!I wonder if there be those who think there’s a section cordoned off in heaven with the sign “divorces only”, this I ponder.
Remember this, Divorce prior to salvation or due to adultery after salvation (if it wasn’t you), is not the unpardonable sin for ministry! May the Grace of God be with your spirit
