The doctrine(s) concerning marriage, divorce, and remarriage is part of the doctrine of Christ (Matthew 5:32; 19:3-12; 1 Corinthians 7:10-11; 2 John 1:9-11). Evangelists are obligated to preach the word/doctrine of Christ, including the doctrines that are “out of season” (2 Timothy 4:2-5). To preach no doctrine on marriage, divorce and remarriage or to teach another doctrine other than what Jesus taught concerning marriage, divorce and remarriage is forbidden by God (Galatians 1:6-9). Just as those who live in unions of fornication, homosexuality or polygamy must be warned to repent of their unlawful, ungodly unions, so also those who live in adulterous unions must be warned (1 Corinthians 6:9-11; Colossians 3:5; Matthew 5:31,32; 19:9).
