Give Me the Bible - Lesson 2 - Because It Enables Me to Confront False Ideas About Marriage Divorce and Remarriage - Jim O'Conner

In this episode, Because It Enables Me to Confront False Ideas About Marriage, Divorce, and Remarriage, we turn to the authority of Scripture to address one of the most sensitive and often misunderstood subjects in our culture. Rather than relying on popular opinion or modern trends, this lesson calls us back to God’s revealed will, examining what the Bible plainly teaches about marriage as a sacred covenant, the seriousness of divorce, and the conditions under which remarriage is addressed in Scripture. By carefully considering key passages such as Matthew 19:4–6, where Jesus affirms that what God has joined together man must not put asunder, and Matthew 19:9, which addresses the exception concerning fornication, this study seeks to bring clarity where confusion often reigns. Listeners are encouraged to approach the topic with humility, compassion, and a firm commitment to truth, allowing God’s Word to correct false ideas and guide faithful obedience. This episode challenges us to let the Bible speak for itself, enabling us to confront error with love while upholding the holiness of marriage and the authority of Christ in all matters of faith and practice.
