As for those feeling Jesus doesn't have 'sufficient backup' for His admonition on divorce/remarriage to really be something He was serious about, I note Malachi records God (His Father for our posters and visitors from Rio Linda) stating He HATES divorce. Significantly, that admonition is in the Old Testament. One might conclude an Eternal and Unchanging God might just have inspired His Holy scriptures to read precisely what He wants on this occasion, at least.
I would advise EXTREME caution for 'sincere' believers who nevertheless feel they need a divorce and/or a subsequent remarriage. I'd also counsel profound suspicion of any (supposedly) Christian denomination/schism that is any way 'soft' on divorce. And especially the ones that treat remarriage as a sacrament.
As for a subsequent (LOL, or prior!) proclamation of belief in the death and resurrection of Christ from a divorce whore, I'd take that with copious skepticism. That is just the sort of thing one would expect to hear from unsaved disciples of Satan.

The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.
