De Bijbelteksten die tegen het dogma ingaan, blijven vaak onbesproken.
A Happy Divorce (Photo credit: Wikipedia)
Een sprekend voorbeeld van selectief Bijbelgebruik zijn teksten met betrekking tot echtscheiding. Zelfs mensen die vinden dat het OT niet meer geldt, citeren toch de tekst uit Maleachi 2 vers 16 waarin staat dat God de echtscheiding haat. Echter, de geschiedenis in Ezra 10 wordt nooit aangehaald. Veel christenen zullen daarom die geschiedenis niet eens kennen. In Ezra 10 wordt in opdracht van God overgegaan tot 157 echtscheidingen. 157 Huwelijken worden hier op aanwijzen van de profeet Ezra, die handelt in opdracht van God, verbroken. Zo wordt met betrekking tot dit onderwerp Maleachi aangehaald en Ezra nooit. Maleachi en Ezra zijn beiden oudtestamentisch, maar Maleachi steunt het dogma, Ezra niet.

Thank you for sharing my review. Not sure as to how it is ‘related topic’ to the above blog, but thanks anyway. I did enjoy your blog and am now following so maybe that’s what was needed? π

We try to chose the related articles in connection with the content of the English, Dutch, Afrikaans, German or French article we publish. In this case we looked at divorce and as such your article was chosen to be given as a background where our readers could find more about thoughts of both the husband and the wife as they are confronted with “the D-word” in the home and how all insecurities are brought to light.
It is as such not our intention to get more followers though we agree we always can use them. Our main goal is to help people and to select articles worthwhile reading or looking at, even we do not always agree with everything what is said in it or even when they are of an other faith than ours. We belief people themselves have to make their own choices and have to look for the truth themselves. We only can try to help them to find this truth by presenting all sorts of ideas which go around in this world.
