...I know that I could move on (date and even remarry) without worry since she sought out the divorce and according to scripture, I could remarry without violating God's commands.
I have to correct this statement I made. To be very honest, I haven't given it much concern since I am still standing for my marriage but the questions have me looking closely at perceived notions that I have had for a long time, specifically that it is okay for the spouse who did not seek the divorce to be free to remarry. Most churches, I believe agree with that statement but I have been reviewing a lot of scripture this evening and I am seeing it repeated time and time again, that it could be considered adultery for either party if they seem to remarry, regardless of an "at fault" perceived allowance.
And he said to them, "Whoever divorces his wife and marries another commits adultery against her, and if she divorces her husband and marries another, she commits adultery." (Mark 10:11-12)
Everyone who divorces his wife and marries another commits adultery, and he who marries a woman divorced from her husband commits adultery. (Luke 16:18)
I am going to look further into this and see what scripture says but if God says that I cannot remarry, then I won't remarry.
