Divorce & Remarriage

Divorce:  God's Will? by Stephen Gola
Order from DivorceHope, PO Box 640, Coudersport, PA  16915
Email:  info@divorcehope.com
Website:  www.DivorceHope.com
God Himself is fed-up with His church condemning those who have had a divorce and remarried, and those who need a divorce and will remarry! Looking for the TRUTH concerning a christian marriage, divorce and remarriage as taught in the Bible? It's in the book Divorce: God's Will? concerning Christian marriage, divorce, remarriage and submission as taught in the Bible.
Principles Taught and Studied in this Book:
    A proper marriage is very wonderful and very beautiful; however, it is possible to stay in a bad marriage and be doing the "right thing" too long.
    God's priority is to save the people of the marriage, not necessarily the marriage itself.
    As painful as this may sound when dealing with a marriage, divorcing or "making one into two" is necessary and needed to save and preserve life.
    God does not want us to be a "sacrificial victim" for the sake of the marriage.

Divorce and Remarriage - What Does the Bible REALLY Say? by Ralph Woodrow
Though Old Testament law permitted divorce--the Lord himself, figuratively, went through a divorce--by the time of Jesus, Jewish men were abusing this law by divorcing wives "for any cause." In which situations does the New Testament permit divorce? Are divorced Christians who remarry "living in adultery"?

Women's Adornment - What does the Bible REALLY Say?
by Ralph Woodrow
Does the Bible forbid the wearing of slacks, earrings, rings, necklaces, and bracelets? Did Paul forbid Christian women to cut their hair? Must women wear hats to church? Was it a "shame" that some men in the Bible had long hair? This book exposes the folly of external strictness.

Religious Holidays - Christmas & Easter
Christmas - Reconsidered by Ralph Woodrow
 Is Christmas an ancient pagan festival to which the name of Christ has been falsely attached? Was Nimrod the first Santa Claus? Was Christ born in winter? Shepherds did not "abide in the fields" in winter, or did they? Does preaching against Christmas ever bring any souls to Christ? Did Jeremiah condemn Christmas trees?

Easter, Is It Pagan?  by Ralph Woodrow
Simply put, this book shows that: "Easter" is not the name of a pagan goddess, Constantine did not start Easter at the Nicene Council, the 40 days of Lent did not start in Babylon, Christians who attend sunrise services are not worshipping Baal, eggs and rabbits are not vile, abominable objects! This study shows how many have been victims of misinformation.
