My question deals with remarriage. I have been married four times. It is my understanding that while I was married to the other three husbands, I was in a state of adultery as my first husband was still living and we had divorced with no scriptural basis. Just being young and stupid mainly. My first husband died a few years ago and at his death I was not married. What I can't seem to get an answer on is this... When the first husband dies, it is like "batter up" and the next husband steps to the plate? Or were the subsequent marriages not even valid in God's eyes because I was still bound to my first husband all along? Would I be free to remarry now?
What does God say about premarital relations? Also, will God send a man a wife or are you totally alone in this process. Please show me where to look in the Bible.
Please advise the best scriptural defense against the teaching of polygamy as being sound doctrine?
I have four friends who are couples and they have a live-in arrangement with their respective partners. They are all not married. Can you please help me reprove their immoral behavior, using Scripture and sound advice, in a firm yet gentle manner? I am having a difficult time as I don't want to be meddling in their "business" (it is none of my business after all,) but what they are doing is immoral.
Is there a place in the Bible that says that you shouldn't argue or that it is shameful to God?
