Suing at law for the enforcement of any right whatsoever, including divorce, is contrary to the teaching of Christ, and is therefore to be shunned by all his brethren and sisters.
A brother or sister of Christ who, being divorced after becoming responsible to the law of Christ, takes another husband or wife during the lifetime of the former partner commits adultery; and in such circumstances no profession of repentance can be recognised while the sinful alliance continues.
An applicant for immersion who is legally married should be accepted (notwithstanding the annulment of any previous marriage) subject to a good confession of an undertaking by the applicant thenceforward to uphold the law of Christ in this as in all other respects.
Fellowship will not knowingly be extended to any who hold views contrary to the foregoing Statement, or who, although themselves not holding contrary views, are prepared to fellowship those who do so.
