Classic Replay: Divorce and remarriage – David Instone-Brewer and Andrew Cornes

This week we look at two different Christian views of Divorce and Remarriage.
Andrew Cornes is part of the clergy team at All Souls Eastbourne.  He holds to the traditional understanding that Jesus taught divorce is only permissible for adultery, and that the Bible forbids remarriage.
David Instone-Brewer is a New Testament scholar from Tyndale House Cambridge.  He believes the church has misunderstood Jesus teaching on divorce.  He claims that Jesus was responding to "any cause" divorce - a Rabbinical view of divorce popular at the time.
They debate the Biblical and pastoral issues involved.

Do you feel free to be...

... unapologetically Christian? It often feels like our voice isn’t allowed in this increasingly secular world — our Christian voice isn’t allowed.  

You know, that feeling of wanting to speak up, but being held back by fear of the response?  

But your voice is powerful. And Premier is here to empower you.
