Divorce: Meet Goliath 4

NTRO: We have now completed the first point, the sin of divorce and remarriage. We will now consider the solution to this sin. I have not come across any treatment of this subject that suggests a solution, and this is the most painful of all. Here we meet Goliath. In this message, you will learn how to arouse Goliath out of his sleep, and this time Satan won’t tell him to lie back down again. If you will obey God’s Word here, you will most likely suffer at least some persecution. Goliath will roar, and the Israelites, or should we say the Churchites will tremble, even those who are as big and tall as Saul was.
Over the years, when I read through the Bible, time and again I come to passages like this regarding the Israelites. God may have disciplined them, and they repented. And in spite of the great reforms that happened at times, one matter was seldom dealt with. For example, Jehoash was a good king and brought about many good changes, but here is what we read in 2 Kings 12:3, But the high places were not taken away; the people still sacrificed and burned incense on the high places.
Over the years my wife and I have seen a few small revivals. Never have I heard divorce addressed. Never! It is an evangelical doctrine. It is a high place we continue to worship on. We cannot bring ourselves to deal with it. It is a canker every time it comes up. In the counseling room, when such people come under conviction, the counselors do not know how to answer.
