  1. praise God 🙏
    Thank you so much for explaining this
    I was reading this chapter and got more confused but now I understood perfectly.
    however, I have questions about separation.

    when Christin couple devorced, they say one should stay alone if they are all alive . sometimes woman or man wishes to remarry but it’s always taken as sin and sometimes she/he is still young with no children. I wonder if those who got married again are taken as sinners Paul said it’s better to marry than being burn with passion.

    1. Different parts of the Christian church have dealt with divorce differently. All denominations start from the point that divorce “misses the mark” (the translation of the word sin in the New Testament), that it falls short of God’s desires and expectations. The Roman Catholic church is well-known then for its stance that you should not remarry, but most protestant denominations allow divorce and remarriage because while it may be a sin, we believe that God can forgive sin and create something new. As someone who has been involved in prison ministry I have been able to tell people who have committed what people would say are much more serious sins that God cares more about their future than their past.
