This is a general term that encompasses sexual sin such as adultery, homosexuality, bestiality, and incest. When one partner violates the unity and intimacy of a marriage by sexual sin—and forsakes his or her covenant obligation—the faithful partner is placed in an extremely difficult situation.
After all means are exhausted to bring the sinning partner to repentance, the Bible permits release for the faithful partner through divorce Matt. The second reason for permitting a divorce is in cases where an unbelieving mate does not desire to live with his or her believing spouse 1 Cor. When an unbeliever desires to leave, trying to keep him or her in the marriage may only create greater tension and conflict.
Also, if the unbeliever leaves the marital relationship permanently but is not willing to file for divorce, perhaps because of lifestyle, irresponsibility, or to avoid monetary obligations, then the believer is in an impossible situation of having legal and moral obligations that he or she cannot fulfill. Remarriage is permitted for the faithful partner only when the divorce was on biblical grounds. In fact, the purpose for a biblical divorce is to make clear that the faithful partner is free to remarry, but only in the Lord Rom.
If she repents from her sin of unbiblical divorce, the true fruits of that repentance would be to seek reconciliation with her former husband Matt. The same is true for a man who divorces unbiblically 1 Cor. The only time such a person could remarry another is if the former spouse remarries, proves to be an unbeliever, or dies, in which cases reconciliation would no longer be possible. The Bible also gives a word of caution to anyone who is considering marriage to a divorcee.

I promise and covenant, before God and these witnesses, to be your loving and faithful husband; to stand by you in riches and in poverty, in joy and in sorrow, in sickness and in health, forsaking all others, as long as we both shall live. Instead, we were entering into a covenant —the same type of sacred obligation that God made with His children on several momentous occasions, such as with Noah after the flood.
Any covenant—including the marriage covenant—is a binding, weighty obligation. God takes the wedding covenant seriously, even when we do not.
It is interesting to note the conversation between Jesus and the Pharisees in Matthew So they are no longer two, but one flesh.
What therefore God has joined together, let no man separate. Your marriage should exalt God and glorify Him to a world that desperately needs to see who He is.
