Would you go to your brothers 2nd wedding after he commited adultery?

[SavedInHim]

And if I'm not sinning by going then why destroy the relationship

Just because something might not be inherently sinful doesn't mean it's automatically a good idea to participate. If my brother claimed to be a believer it would be different than if he was an unbeliever; I'd approach each case differently.

Buy would it be a sin to attend the wedding?

And if we have sinned before, which we all have, than who are we to judge?

Is adultery sin . is it a sin to support others sins .
The answer to both them questions is one and the same . YES .
Be not partakers of others sins . Would it have been a sin for me to say its okay to attend such a wedding . YES . because to LIE is a sin .
I hope this helps to remind us all about a key fact that many have either forgotten or never knew .
And that fact is , WHEN loving , if any lov es anyone more than GOD , more than Christ that one is in deadly dire danger .
have we been lied too in this generation . OH YES WE have .
But seeing i do desire always what is best for ot hers , I shall SPEAK THE TRUTH to all. The cards shall fly and fall as they fall .
Just dont expect me to keep company with brethren that rebel against Christ .
Nor should any other . WE should have corrected them . And if they wont hear or receive the correction
bid them farewell till THEY DO REPENT and DO HEAR .

Jesus clearly says that divorcing, except for sexual immorality, and remarriage is a sin

Nothing you say changes that.
That's all I have to say about that.
We're getting off topic.

and that is ALL that needs to be said RIGHT there . YOU well said JESUS said .
and now a word .
IF JESUS says , THEN I suggest we believe HIM . And any brethren in sin has to be corrected .
any who calls himself of Christ , that b e a fornicator , adulterer , or etc
DONT even eat with such a one .
We are supposed to have HONORED GOD first and foremost , WHICH means we had honored THE SON first and foremost
which m eans we had HONORED HIS WORDS .
This might sound like hate speech to many , BUT IT IS NOT HATE speech . IT BE THE TRUTH .
No matter what the devil and his co workers , of which there are many in wool as well , have to say ,
ITS NOT he or they we heed , ITS JESUS . And i shudder in fear and terror for those who say otherwise .
Cause if one calleth GOD a liar , NOT GOOD . IF we call the SON a liar , NOT GOOD .
And if we call His words lies , NOT GOOD . i suggest with a whole new and renewed effort ,
we all return to the scriptures and let us see well and examine well such lovely words . feast upon them
and follow HIS PATTERN . Heed the SPIRIT and test all .

Is ad ultery sin . I bet you would say YES . is supporting sin evil . WHY YES IT IS .
SO i would not say attending a gay marriage IS NOT SIN . IT IS .
SO i would not say attending an adulterous remarriage is not sin , IT IS .
And it darn sure is hate to do so . how so .
YE shall NOT hate your neighbor in your heart , you SHALL , as IN SHALL CORRECT HIM and NOT ALLOW SIN UPON HIM .
SO for those who do support anothers sin , THEY BE AS GUILTY as the one IN SAID SIN . they just dont realize it .

 

[amigo de christo]

This generation is so dire worried about relationships and about not offending
IT has long forgotten
WHAT ABOUT THE RELATIONS IHP we were to have had WITH GOD
what about what OFFENDS HIM .
Cause boy i surely see problems today . seems they aint concerned at all about OFFENDING GOD
just about offending man . BIG PROBLEM too .

 

[amigo de christo]

Too concerened is this generation with pleasing man .
But if i were to please man i would NOT be the servant of CHRIST .
WE ought to be far more concerned with what PLEASES GOD .
cause often what is pleasing to man IS ABOMINATION WITH GOD .
has anyone else noticed
that this g eneration that constantly seeks to please man
has been attending things that are not PLEASING TO HIM at all

 

[amigo de christo]

Your right it's not an easy decision to make.
For me and you its just a hypothetical question but I think I would have to go.
I have sinned so it would be hypocritical for me to judge. And if I'm not sinning by going then why destroy the relationship

All have sinned . i was one of the worst .
But just b ecause i was
dont mean i am g onna support the sin or sins of any other .
IF one who has ever sinned cannot correct
THEN WHO ON EARTH could . You are messing up .
its like me saying HEY when i was a child i used to steal , i used to view naked photos , i used to lie
i used to play in the streets , i used to sneak out at night .
SO I GUESS i cannot now correct my own children cause i would be a hyprocrite for me to judge .
You are messing this up my friend .

Yes it would be a sin to attend the wedding .
An d yeah i have sinned before . heck i was one of the worst Before I was set free by Christ .
Speaking of that . I guess i once was an unbeliver , maybe its hyprocritical for me to tell folks THEY MUST BELIEVE .
i am i used to not beleive so who i am to judge . SEE THE PROBLEM with your mindset yet .
Paul corrected . Believe me paul was one of the worst sinners BEFORE CHRIST chan ged him .
And then he corrected big time the church as well as Preached b ig time CHRIST JESUS .
The d evil is very very wise my friend . HE is simply trying to Silence correction .
U nder the guise its judgmental and hypocritcal to do so . I sure hope this helps you better understand my friend .

Would you go to your brothers 2nd wedding after he commited adultery? I'm torn on this

It all depends on the relationship with your brother.

A great friend has me in both wedding parties. His twin brother was the best man in the first wedding. In the 2nd wedding, where there was adultery, the twin "had to work." I don't think there relationship was ever the same.

 

[marks]

I'm torn on this. One part of me agrees with the preacher but another part of me says that I should keep the peace with my family.

If you agree with the Pastor then how about this. Would you go to your brothers wedding knowing that they have had sex already? Because if you use the pastors logic then you should not attend that wedding either because the bible says you shouldn't have sex outside of marriage.

But who are you to judge anyway. Have you not sinned yourself. Ultimately it's God who will judge your brother, not you.

How about these bible verses which I'm para phrasing

Take the log out of your eye before taking the speck from your brothers eye

He who has not sinned may cast a stone

I don't know. The more i think about it the more i think i would go. Keeping the peace in the family is important. Tearing apart the family for simply not showing up is extreme. Your not committing a sin for showing up at the wedding.

Your thoughts

Personally I think this is a question we can only truly answer if we are in that particular situation. I would go, unless the Spirit in me said otherwise.

Much love!

Just because I attend the wedding doesn't mean I support it. That's going overboard, I'm just standing there with my mouth closed. Not supporting anything. Not sinning at all. Just attending to keep the peace in the family.

Then what about attending a wedding where the two have already been living together and having sex? Would you attend or not?

 

[Armour of God]

and that is ALL that needs to be said RIGHT there . YOU well said JESUS said .
and now a word .
IF JESUS says , THEN I suggest we believe HIM

Sorry but Jesus doesn't say it's a sin to attend a wedding at all. That's jumping to a false conclusion my friend.

Jesus says not to be a hypocrite.
Take the log out of your eye.
If you haven't sinner then cast a stone.

Let God do the judging for we are all sinners.
It's not a sin to attend, your not supporting it.

It's not worth destroying the peace in the family just to make a point.

I see it as being hypocritical and prideful.
Pride is Satan's favourite sin

 

[Armour of God]

See, You can't change the bible to suit your religious concepts and be correct

That's exactly what you are doing.
Changing the bible to suit your beliefs.
Jesus is clear and righteous in his words

Matthew 19:9
9 I tell you that anyone who divorces his wife, except for sexual immorality, and marries another woman commits adultery.”
NIV

No excuse can change this fact
It's why most churches won't do it.

Answer me this.
Have you or someone close done this?
If so then your obviously trying to make excuses to suit yourself.

Open a thread asking this question and I bet that nearly everyone will say it's a sin

 

[PS95]

I didnt watch the video.

But i can assure you Reader, that if you are a Divorced born again Christians, if you have a legal divorce....then go ahead and remarry as you are not committing any sin.

However, If you are not divorced, and you are going to marry someone else, then you have an issue.........but, never concern yourself with "can i get remarried"...........as its perfectly fine for you to remarry a CHRISTian, if you have been legally divorced.

Its interesting that really religious people, hyper religious people.... who are not real students of the bible, want to attack this one misunderstood VERSE situation with their theological ignorance. And the reason they do that, is because they are JUDGING, and they like how this FEELS when they point their little finger.
So, thats their carnality at work.

Behold..
No- that is wrong.

I know you reject Jesus's teachings -so I will just give you Paul's which are FROM THE Lord--
1 Corinthians 7-

10But to the married I give instructions, not I, but the Lord, that the wife is not to leave her husband 11(but if she does leave, she must remain unmarried, or else be reconciled to her husband), and that the husband is not to divorce his wife....................

39A wife is bound as long as her husband lives; but if her husband dies, she is free to be married to whom she wishes, only in the Lord.
40But in my opinion she is happier if she remains as she is; and I think that I also have the Spirit of God.

You are trying to tell us once again that PAUL disagrees with JESUS and teaches the opposite of HIM! You need to stop this!

I was thinking where is this Behold guy coming from, claiming that it's not a sin to divorce and remarry. He must of done it himself or know someone that did and is trying to reject what the scriptures plainly tell us about it. Anyway thanks for using some of Paul's passages to correct him seeing that he rejects the teachings of Christ that I presented

Just go to your brother's wedding and don't judge. You will keep the family peace. Not knowing if the family is Christian, the Holy Spirit just might show up and convict your brother and family. But you have to be there, maybe to give advice to other person. The unbelieving spouse can leave, and the Christian is not bound. 1 Cor. 7:15. Only between an unsaved spouse who wants to leave and a Christian. Everything else is a sin.

Your thoughts

I'm glad this is just a video and not your personal issue now. It's a tough one. It's not clear if he is calling him his bother as in sibling or a believer.
If my brother claimed to be a Christian and that was his behavior- I wouldn't feel comfortable in going.
Of course, I would sit down and speak with this brother about it to understand why he thinks the way he does,- and share pertinent scriptures with him. If he didn't care about what God has to say about it- why would I want to celebrate with him?

Each person would have to decide for themselves I think.. I don't think it is a SIN to go but for me it wouldn't feel right.

Paul taught not to even eat with a person who wont repent of his sins and yet claims to be a brother.
1 Cor 5:7-
But actually, I wrote to you not to associate with any so-called brother if he is an immoral person, or covetous, or an idolater, or a reviler, or a drunkard, or a swindler— not even to eat with such a one.

obviously- there is a difference between a believer who sins and is sorry- Paul is referring to a person who knows better and still wants his own way and won't repent of his sin.
ie; the man sleeping with father's wife..

Agree with you that we all sin and don't want to appear as self righteous- but if we condone sin are we honoring God? We are to turn from sin not condone it. I would not be mean or arrogant to the "brother" but I would show him why I felt I could not bless his behavior.
An actual brother would understand. Don't you think? If he didn't and it caused a rift- that would be on him.
We are to hate the sin but love the sinner.

I would also not attend a gay wedding if they said they were believers or not.

So would you go to a gay wedding performed in a church .
As far as the HOLY SPIRIT showing up , The HOLY SPIRIT works through the church .
WE should have corrected them . Ei ther by NOT showing up saying why we would not
OR if one does show up
WHEN the so called pastor says CAN ANYONE HERE give a reason as to WHY these two should not be ma rried
say NOW or forever h old your peace .
YA ever wonder why the churches b egan that . IF an yone here can show just cause on why these two should not be married .
AND YOU GONNA HAVE TO STAND UP AND SAY , I CAN , cause G OD dont allow same sex marriage .
PS , HE AINT FOR ADULTERY EITHER .
SO go ahead everyone , GO to them marriages , b ut rememb er
YOU BETTER stand AND TELL THEM WHY , before all , THEY S HOULD NOT be married .
OR you can do as i did . warn them in private and if they don t hear
HEY DO NT GO to the wedding .
