Adultery is the ONLY sin that can dissolve a marriage in the Bible, and many religions adhere to that today.

 

But God does offer forgiveness for the truly repentent.

 

Jesus, upon discovering the about-to-be stoning of a prostitute, admonishes the crowd: "Let he without sin, cast the first stone."

Everyone puts down their rocks, and it is a famous lesson.

 

But he then admonishes the prostitute, "To go, and sin no more."

 

So is it a sin when it starts? Or is it a sin when publicly outed? Or is it a sin when the sinner realizes it is?

 

I too am a spiritual person, and believe in the healing powers of prayer and religion. I have seen it work miracles in lives.

 

Mombot, I am happy you find it a comfort.

 

Seek and ye shall find.
