Should Christians remarry after the splip up?

O I feel so lonely and forsaken on earth. I need another one. Said to me a friend who just got a divorce from his wife of 20 years.
I need a new one, a young one. Said another of my friends who was living alone.
I just want a new life, said another one.
The world, the flesh and the devil will offer Christians all kinds of ideas and desires that are so far away from Gods word. Do not get into their sinful advise. Your life will become so sad and empty.
Remember what Jesus said.

Anyone who divorces his wife and marries another woman commits adultery against her. Mark 10.11

Remember, a real marriage is between a man and a woman who were never married before or lost a spouse through physical death. Jesus loves those who obey His word.
 
To fully comprehend, at least as best as we can, we must examine, study and interconnect a multitude of situation-specific Scripture when unanswered spiritual questions loom. One of the most serious issues involving people and Scripture is reciting "bits and pieces of Scripture to support personal beliefs." I would like to add to all of the above, as well as inject a different perspective which is biblically supported. First, divorcee decrees were created for a reason, and according to the Holy Bible, "God ordained at least one reason for divorce as acceptable?" "But I tell you that anyone who divorces his wife, except for sexual immorality, makes her the victim of adultery, and anyone who marries a divorced woman commits adultery."

What is sexual immorality?

In the New Testament, Sexual immortality is characterized as, “whoredom,” “fornication,” and “idolatry.” It means “a surrendering of sexual purity,” also applicable to having premarital sexual relations. "Who among us can honestly pretend to not know that "sexual immorality" appears to be the number one cause of so much marital discourse and divorce?

Another thing, why do so many religious leaders who delve into the subject of divorce being a sin tiptoe around this one "exception" that God made?


Let's take this a step further. Sexual immorality would also include sexual child abuse, including "incests." Atrocities of this kind assault the very core of how a Christian marriage or any kind of marriage for that matter was intended to be.

“Haven’t you read,” he replied, “that at the beginning the Creator ‘made them male and female, and said, ‘For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and the two will become one flesh. Matthew 19: 4-5

Sexual immorality is the “selling off” of sexual purity and involves any type of sexual expression outside the boundaries of a biblically defined marriage relationship. See (Matthew 19:4–5). Got Questions.org

So, the question is "should Christians remarry after a split-up? Collectively there are enough different Scriptures in the Bible that would conclude that if one divorces due to being "cheated on" as in their mate engaging in "sexual immorality" and that person still has desires to have a mate, then remarrying seems to be the only option f Otherwise, wouldn't he or she would be fornicating?

Lastly, there is something called grace, that only God can give. And then there is forgiveness of sin, which only the Father can do. Remember, not only does God know the heart, he knows the circumstance!

In Jesus name. Amen
