Help with reuniting with true spouse!

Post by longdistancerunner »

I had a friend who converted to John Hagerty's church in Fort Worth. I read their material and they make the CoC seem like an extreme liberal group. One of the things I found most bizarre was they offered new converts who were currently married in what they considered an adulterous marriage (they remarried after a divorce and this church did not believe there were scriptural grounds for divorce except for death.

I wondered if anyone has heard of the CoC offering to help connect newly baptized people with their true spouse?

No, but according to the most conservative cofc marriage policies, that would be the only way to be married and in good standing with the church. Sounds like a good way for the elders to end up with lots of lawsuits.
