And such couples are then allowed to worship in regular services at those churches without repudiating their continuing adulterous relationship.
You're right on this one. That's a problem with religions. A human institution takes the place of following Christ.
To clarify, would a religion consecrating such marriages then be considered a false religion ?
Could someone who attends such a denomination, but is still on their original spouse, but yet donates money to such an organization still be assured of Salvation ?
To what extent could we say that individual is sincerely imbued with the entirety of Jesus sacrifice ??
The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.
