Description

The Bible DOES allow divorce for domestic abuse. This book explains the scriptural dilemmas of abuse victims in regards to separation and divorce. It examines the scriptures and scholarly research, showing exactly how and why Scripture allows victims of abuse to divorce their abusive spouses. It also address whether remarriage is permissible for a divorced Christian

The Bible distinguishes between 'treacherous divorce' and 'disciplinary divorce'. Disciplinary divorce is permitted by the Bible -- this applies in cases of abuse, adultery or desertion, where a seriously mistreated spouse divorces a seriously offending spouse. Treacherous divorce is condemned by the Bible -- it occurs when a spouse obtains divorce for reasons other than abuse, adultery or desertion.

"Not Under Bondage" can be read by pastors, academics, survivors of domestic abuse, and their friends and family.

Please note: since writing this book, Barbara has changed her mind about church discipline in relation to divorce for domestic abuse. So read the book in conjunction with her article cryingoutforjustice.blog/2013/10/04/church-discipline-and-church-permission-for-divorce-how-my-mind-has-changed/
