Jesus was really, really, really serious about divorce being a no-no. He talked about it more than abortion (which he never talked about). Neither party is to ever seek a divorce, regardless of adultery, abuse, etc. The whole Catholic-Protestant schism occurred because King James wanted a divorce and the Pope told him no.
What that pastor said should be considered blasphemy by the majority of Christians.
It was a presbytarian church so I don't know where they fit in the picture. My main issue was not the possible blasphemy but how they were trying to whitewash an asymmetry in rights between the husband and the wife.
Oh. Oh. Yeah that's a super, duper no-no lmao. Presbyterianism is just like the Catholicism, except pastors can get married, be women, and divorce is allowed. They don't do confession or confirmation. Otherwise, they have a lot of the same doctrines and interpretations. They're one of the sects closest to Roman Orthodox.
I'd expect that comment out of an Evangelical preacher, but a Presbyterian pastor? He's venturing outside of what his own sect believes.
