In the introductory part, Brother Branham mentioned tens of thousands of cases where God showed him things by a vision, and also refers to events he had predicted, which were all fulfilled. He spoke this before his church congregation, who were ear and eye witnesses for many years, and they confirmed his statement with an unanimous Amen. After this he declared that there are two different schools and they are contrary one to the other, and of course to Scripture, although they are preached and believed to be right. Quote. “Now, if that be so, we have two schools of thought on marriage and divorce. And that is, one of them says that a man can only be married once unless his wife is dead. And that’s one of the questions. But you go to following that, you go overboard. And then the next says, »Oh, if the wife or the husband (either one) has committed adultery, either one of them can be put away and married again.« You find yourself overboard with that.“ (pg. 11)

It can be sometimes embarrassing when totally private things are mentioned, but God in His Fatherhood is concerned with us, even in what pertains to a marital relationship. Therefore, He gave the commandments of what is right and of the things which are wrong, for carnal transgressions hurt our spiritual life also. It is disobedience which manifests itself in bodily transgressions and hurts the soul separating us from God. That is why it is very important for a child of God to know what the Scripture says. In the beginning God gave His commandments to Adam and Eve and placed the choice before them to live or to die. They were to be blessed if they obeyed and did according to the Word, and receive a curse of death for transgression and disobedience. Our Redeemer, Who took our place, was obedient unto death on the cross (Phil. 2:8), to take us out of the disobedience of Adam, and to redeem us (Rom. 5:19 a. o.). Thus saith our Redeemer, “… and he that believeth not the Son shall not see life, but the wrath of God abideth on him“ (Jn. 3:36b). Peter writes, “As obedient children, not fashioning yourselves according to the former lusts in your ignorance“ (1 Pet. 1:14). There are two pairs of shoes, »unbelief and disobedience«, »faith and obedience«. Which pair do we wear? We must now not think about others, but place ourselves in front of God’s Word and personally examine ourselves.

All scriptural references pertaining to a subject must be taken into consideration. If someone refers only to one scripture without acknowledging the rest of God’s Word, then he is certainly wrong. God’s Word is not given to please everyone, and far be it that some one would expect to find his own view confirmed by It. We are all here to let God be right and then adjust to His Word. Whoever, for instance does not differentiate between what is addressed to the man and woman respectively, has not come nearer to understanding the matter, and perhaps is not even interested in knowing this subject correctly. Whenever God addresses the man, what is meant is for the man; if He addresses a woman, it is meant for the woman. He always means what He says and says what He means.
