Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers,nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind,
1Co 6:10 Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God.
I am particularly wondering about the adulterers portion of this verse. What if a man leaves his wife and marries another. They are both considered adulterers. He becomes a Christian years later and doesn't know what to do. Should he leave his present wife to repent of the adultery? Their marriage is adulterous. Is it not?
