Which biblical passages are cited as the first exception to remarriage after divorce in Assemblies of God teaching?

• A. Matthew 5:32; 19:9
• B. Matthew 6:9
• C. Luke 3:16
• D. John 3:16

Answer: (A)

Assemblies of God teaching identifies an exception to remarriage after divorce when sexual immorality has occurred. The passages that establish this first exception are found in Matthew 5:32 and Matthew 19:9, where Jesus states an exception clause: “except for sexual immorality.” These verses are the primary scriptural basis for allowing remarriage in that specific situation. The other options don’t address remarriage or its exceptions: Matthew 6:9 is the Lord’s Prayer, Luke 3:16 is about John the Baptist’s baptism, and John 3:16 speaks of eternal life through faith. So the two Matthew passages are the correct references.
