King David and Bathsheba, foreign wives, being unequally yoked, and marriage, divorce, and remarriage

Thesis: The sin and the forgiveness of King David and Bathsheba's sin of adultery by the LORD God holds some important lessons for our understanding. It represents an important lesson for Christians to understand on the harmony of the mercy and forgiveness of the LORD God from the law of Moses, to the teachings of Jesus, and to the teachings of the apostle Paul on marriage, divorce and remarriage. This understanding is more than a mere cerebral, academic, scholarly exercise. It concerns the obedience of the faith through the preaching of the gospel of Jesus by those who are adversely affected by the intimate, interpersonal human experiences of marriage, divorce, and remarriage today.
