You also need to understand why many churches accept divorce and in some cases allow remarriage.

Have a look at a sample answer. Make a brief note of the areas you haven't covered. You will only have around 12 minutes in the exam for this question - don't feel you have to write everything. If you remember only half of this in the exam you're doing very well. For a slightly different approach, try the other sample answer on this site.
