Thumbs up What Do Most UPCI Churchs Teach Divorce/Remarriage

As some of you know, I come from the Church Of Our Lord Jesus Christ which teaches no divorce and remarriage with a living spouse (Romans 7:3 So then if, while her husband liveth, she be married to another man, she shall be called an adulteress: but if her husband be dead, she is free from that law; so that she is no adulteress, though she be married to another man.)

As most of you know I am UPCI now. Just out of curiousity, what is the general stance around UPCI concerning Divorce and Remarriage with a living (divorced) spouse? I know the Articles of Faith say "Whosoever shall put away his wife, except it be for fornication, and shall marry another, committeth adultery:" (Matt. 19:9). (Matt. 5:32), When this sin has been committed, the innocent party may be free to remarry only in the Lord. Our desire being to raise a higher standard for the ministry, we recommend that ministers do not marry again.
