Is Deconversion Grounds for Divorce?
February 27, 2023

#STRaskStand to Reason
Questions about whether deconversion is grounds for divorce, why non-Christians misuse the Lord’s name, whether the sower in the parable deliberately sowed seed upon the hard ground and into thorns and weeds, and the meaning of the parable of the foolish virgins.
* If a spouse deconverts, is that grounds for separation or divorce?
* Why do non-Christians say the Lord’s name in vain?
* Do you believe the sower in the parable deliberately sowed seed upon the hard ground and into thorns and weeds, or was he just trying to fully cover the good soil?
* Are the foolish virgins in the Matthew 25:1–13 parable faux believers or non-believers, and what does it mean to “be ready”?
