Divorce and Oaths (Part 2)
The Life and Teachings of ChristSteve Gregg
In this continuation of his lecture series on divorce and oaths, Steve Gregg cites examples from the Bible and modern-day scenarios to discuss the complexity of divorce. While divorce is generally discouraged in the Bible, there are exceptions for cases of infidelity and abandonment. However, oaths should be taken seriously, as they involve invoking God's integrity. The use of loopholes in oath-taking is deceptive and goes against principles of justice, faithfulness, and mercy. Overall, Gregg emphasizes the importance of understanding the sacredness of marriage and one's obligations to it.
