There is not one Scripture in the whole Bible that clearly and
specifically says that sexual immorality terminates marriage. Sexual
immorality in marriage SHOULD RESULT IN CHRISTIAN DISCIPLINE
INVOLVING: Gala 6:1; 2 Tim 2:22-26; Matt 18:15-18; 1 Cor 5:3-5; 1 Cor
11:30-32; Heb 12:1-12; the godly sorrow of 2 Cor 7 and the godly
reconciliation of 2 Cor 2.
[1] Divorce, adultery and the believing woman
[2] Divorce, adultery and the believing man
[1] Divorce, adultery and the believing woman
***1 Cor 7: 10 I command the married —not I, but the Lord— a
[believing] wife is not to leave, depart or separate from [Strong's
5563] her [believing] husband. 11 But if she does leave, depart, and/
or separate [Strong's 5563], she must remain unmarried or be
reconciled to her husband— . . . 13 Also, if any woman has an
unbelieving husband/man, and he is willing [consents, would like] to
keep on [maritally] occupying a house, residing , cohabiting^ and/or
dwelling [3611] with her, she must not forsake, lay aside, leave, put
(send) away, and/or remit [Strongs 863] her husband/man. . . .15 But
if the unbeliever leaves, departs and/or separates himself [Strong's
5563], he should go away/depart/separate/leave, [he should separate
make the separation]. A brother or a sister is not [legally, morally,
maritally] bound in such cases [in the Kingdom of God]. God has called
you to peace. . . . 39 A [believing] wife is bound to her
[believing] husband by [God's] Law as long as he lives. But if her
husband dies, she is free to be married to anyone she wants — only in
the Lord.
A believing wife is bound to her unbelieving husband {1} as long as he
is willing [consents, would like] to keep on [maritally] occupying a
house, residing , cohabiting and/or dwelling with her (7:11,13); or
{2} until the unbeliever leaves, departs and/or separates himself from
the believing mate (7:15).
A believing wife is living in adultery if
she has divorced her believing man and married another (1 Cor
7:10,11,39); or if she has remarried after divorcing her unbelieving
husband {1} who is still willing [consenting, would like] to keep on
[maritally] occupying a house, residing , cohabiting and/or dwelling
with her (7:11,13); or {2} who never left her, departed from her and/
or separated himself from her (7:15). Her repentance in godly sorrow
involves leaving her adulterous marriage/mate and accepting the fact
that she is maritally bound in the Kingdom of God to {1} her believing
ex-husband as long as they both live; or {2} her unbelieving ex-
husband as long as he {A} is still willing [consenting, would like] to
keep on [maritally] occupying a house, residing , cohabiting and/or
dwelling with her (7:11,13); or {B} has never left her, departed from
her and/or separated himself from her (7:15).
*** "10 For godly grief produces a repentance that leads to salvation
without regret, whereas worldly grief produces death. 11 For see what
earnestness this godly grief has produced in you, but also what
eagerness to clear yourselves, what indignation, what fear, what
longing, what zeal, what punishment! At every point you have proved
yourselves innocent in the matter. 2 Cor 7 ESV
***Prov 28:13 Whoever conceals his transgressions will not prosper,
but he who confesses and forsakes them will obtain mercy. ESV
[2] Divorce, adultery and the believing man
***1 Cor 7:11 . . . and a [believing] husband/man should not forsake,
lay aside, leave, put (send) away, divorce [Strongs 863] his wife/
woman. 12 But to the rest I, not the Lord, say: If any brother has an
unbelieving wife/woman, and she is willing [consents, would like] to
[maritally] continue on occupying a house, reside , cohabiting^ and/or
dwelling [3611]> with him, he must not forsake, lay aside, leave, put
(send) away, and/or remit [Strongs 863] her. . . . . .15 But if the
unbeliever leaves, departs and/or separates himself [Strong's 5563],
he should go away/depart/separate/leave, [he should separate make the
separation]. A brother or a sister is not [legally, morally,
maritally] bound in such cases [in the Kingdom of God]. God has called
you to peace. . . . 39 A [believing] wife is bound to her
[believing] husband by [God's] Law as long as he lives. But if her
husband dies, she is free to be married to anyone she wants—only in
the Lord.
A believing husband is bound to his unbelieving wife {1} as long as
she is willing [consents, would like] to keep on [maritally] occupying
a house, residing , cohabiting and/or dwelling with him (7:11,13); or
{2} until the unbeliever leaves, departs and/or separates herself from
the believing mate (7:15).
A believing husband is living in adultery if he has divorced his own
believing woman and married another (1 Cor 7:11b,39); or if he has
remarried after divorcing his unbelieving woman {1} who is still
willing [consenting, would like] to keep on [maritally] occupying a
house, residing , cohabiting and/or dwelling with him (7:11,13); or
{2} who never left him, departed from him and/or separated herself
from him (7:15). His repentance in godly sorrow involves his real and
practical acceptance of the fact that he is still maritally bound in
the Kingdom of God to his believing ex-wife as long as they both live;
or to his unbelieving ex-wife as long as she has {1} continued wanting
to keep on [maritally] occupying a house, residing , cohabiting and/or
dwelling with him (7:11,13); or {2} never left him, departed from him
and/or separated herself from him as her own man (7:15). He mustn't
divorce his current wife and remarry his ex-wife because of the Word
in:
***"Whoever divorces his wife, except for [her] sexual immorality, and
marries another, commits adultery." and "Whoever divorces his wife and
marries another woman commits adultery against her [his wife]." Matt
19: 9: Mark 10:11; Luke 16:18.
What should he do about the wife to whom he is currently married in
adultery? Ask me.
Repentance in godly sorrow:
*** "10 For godly grief produces a repentance that leads to salvation
without regret, whereas worldly grief produces death. 11 For see what
earnestness this godly grief has produced in you, but also what
eagerness to clear yourselves, what indignation, what fear, what
longing, what zeal, what punishment! At every point you have proved
yourselves innocent in the matter. 2 Cor 7 ESV
***Prov 28:13 Whoever conceals his transgressions will not prosper,
but he who confesses and forsakes them will obtain mercy. ESV
========================================
Having been made in God's likeness, we shouldn't think that the divine
nature is like gold or silver or stone, or an image fashioned by human
art and imagination. Therefore, having overlooked the times of our
ignorance, Jehovah now commands all people everywhere to repent,
because He has set a day on which He is going to judge the world in
righteousness by the Man, Jesus Christ, who He has appointed. He has
provided proof of this to everyone by raising Jesus Christ from the
dead. Everyone who believes in Jesus Christ may have eternal life. For
Jehovah-God so compassionately loved all people that He gave His only
Son, Jesus born of woman, that whoever believes in and relies on Him
alone to be made right with Jehovah God shall not perish but have
eternal life. For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn
people, but to save people through Him. Whoever believes in Jesus
Christ is not condemned, but anyone who does not believe Him stands
condemned already because of failing to believe in the nature and
character of God's only Son, Jesus born of woman.

the Kingdom of God to his believing ex-wife as long as they both live;

divorce his current wife and remarry his ex-wife because of the Word

marries another, commits adultery." and "Whoever divorces his wife and
marries another woman commits adultery against her [his wife]." Matt
19: 9: Mark 10:11; Luke 16:18.
What should he do about the wife to whom he is currently married in
adultery? Ask me.
