The Dennis-Smith Debate on Divorce and Remarriage (1943)

The following debate is, to my knowledge, not copyrighted. I received a copy of this debate and read it with great interest. This was a written debate which seems to have begun in about 1942 and was finished in 1943. I feel this debate demonstrates very clearly the weakness of the position which says, “There is no-exception whatsoever for divorce in the gospel system.”

  • J. A. Dennis takes the position that there is an exception given which applies in the gospel age (Mt 5:32 and Mt 19:9).
  • W. S. Smith takes the position there is no-exception given.
