Its ok others are better for advice but I think it is good that you are trying to do what you thought the Lord was leading you to do for her sake.

It wasn’t a religious wedding so I guess we’re fine?It depends on whether your husbands marriage was validly sacramental or not.
There are two types of marriage. Natural marriage which is just a contract between two people. This is created by man and can be dissolved by man. Then there is Christian marriage, also known as sacramental marriage. In this, the covenant bond is created by God and cannot be dissolved by men.
If your husband's first marriage was validly sacramental, then the marriage bond of that marriage cannot be dissolved by human law and he is still married to his first wife and you are committing adultery. (this is what Jesus says)
If your husbands first marriage was NOT validly sacramental, then he was free to marry you validly and you are fine.
I watched your video clip and agree that it is a good, remarkable perspective. I knew before I was 20 that I was meant to have a wife and offspring. It grieves me a bit that I have been wed four times but I rejoice in Yashua's Grace for old reprobates like myself. From this post it is easy to see that marriage, regardless of salvation status can be or develop into sin. This is a good example of why we need to follow the Scriptures as closely as we are able.Was going to post some more here but decided not to so is not debated but I decided I will seek to marry as is good thing now I see to have children that is good that bible says is good to speak with enemies in the gate that I see some use situation to put down one who is christian as loser as though doing so because know can not succeed and so I am not blamed for not trying.
Where in the word does it say that a woman could remarry because her husband committed adultery?Marriage was established by God from the beginning to be between a man and a woman. It is a special, deep, intimate connection when a husband and a wife become one. This is the same way that God loves his people and God established marriage to give us an example so we can understand just how much and how God loves his people. True marriage as God first established it was NEVER a sin. It only becomes sin when you mess with God's original design for marriage (gay marriage, divorce, divorce and remairrage outside of adultery, or as you pointed out union's between humans and angels who have no gender)
But marriage in its truest form as God has always designed it was never a sin.

Is hardness of heart rebellion , pride , self-will ?Is hardness of one's heart sin?
I still believe that His perfect will is to remain married or if you divorce, to remain unmarried or be reconciled to your ex.
I can't find anything in scripture that can stand against that belief.
If you find one, let me know.
We , you and i, are in good company ! Many readers consider Jesus a fool or a fraud or even not real !!! The world is under judgment , like Scripture Says, like Corey ten Boom point out the world is under a death sentence!Perhaps to many readers I'm a fool.
Questioning God ?Ive never noticed that before but, It's sort of implied. You're right that Jesus only said that a man could remarry because of sexual immorality (matthew 19:9) but why would only a man be allowed to remarry because of sexual immorality? Why not a woman as well?
The apostle Paul said that it's ok to have an unbeliever as a spouse. But it's not preferred. It's not sin howeverThe bible says as it was in the days of Noah they were marrying and giving in marriage and did not know until the flood came and took them all away so it will be when the son of man returns
In the days of Noah marriage was a sin because sons of God married daughters of men that is the non spiritual people
I thought marriage is never a sin if person is Christian as Paul said he who marries has not sinned but such will have trouble in the flesh
But could it be a sin if the other person possibility may not be a true Christian if they are not of similar background to atleast be born in Christian family though it is possible one is a Christian if one is not
What other situations is it a sin ?
But how can it take them by surprise if Christ will come after the tribulation do you think some will not even believe they are in the tribulation because how then can it take them by surprise ?
My dad says when Paul says in the last days people will forbid marriage it means because people will live together without getting married I don’t think however it is necessary to get married and have kids you may not raise in God if one is not spiritual but this means people should not sin and if they do they must repent
I am convinced now that I should not marry because it may not work out my father thought it was good for me though I don’t have to and my grandfather
my dads father told me before he died he wanted me to get married but my father said I don’t have to listen to him if I thought it was good and I was able to do something for the Lord I would think to get married but I think being single is being more profitable for the Lord the barren has more children than one who is married because you should not make people feel they have to get married which being single is maybe more safe and good for some and you don’t know if you will meet one suitable
unless I am convinced being married is good if I meet one suitable I don’t think I should get married
Does this count ? >>>Where?
So if a believer marries an unbeliever (neither having been married before)I believe Paul is referring to a new man in Christ whose wife is an unbeliever as was he when they wed.
No I am not saying that.So if a believer marries an unbeliever (neither having been married before)
and they have children,
based on your post, their children will be unclean instead of clean as Scripture says ?
Yes, it certainly makes life daily more difficult and awkward and harder to endure! Like for Samson, it was certainly A lot more difficult!No I am not saying that.
But I think the believing spouse loses out on God's best for him when he marries an unbeliever.
