Dealing with divorce.

[Tarheel Baptist]

... It *is* an unwritten expectation for officers of the church to be "one woman men" (meaning never divorced) based on the founding pastor's view of this subject.  Though I've never made any challenge to that policy, I don't agree with it and have made my opinion known to the leadership of the church....

"one woman man* does not mean never divorced. It means a man who is faithful to one woman.  The word divorce is not in the context, and you cannot prove it from correlation with 1 Tim 5:9, because they are talking about totally different contexts.

Neither can you prove your opinion/position from the passages.
Which is the point Alayman has made.
I wouldn't break fellowship with you over it....but wouldn't change my belief based on your 'argument' either.
