MARRIAGE

Since creation, God has blessed marriage as a sacred, lifetime commitment and blessing between a man and a woman.

Marriages that are built upon the foundation of Christ have divine hope. It is God’s plan that marriage lives within the hope of Christ. God’s Word directs believers to seek out a person of faith.  A marriage build on Christ has a firm foundation.

God’s Word gives clear direction regarding marriage. To learn more from the Bible on Marriage check out 1 Corinthians 7:1-40

READ SCRIPTURE

MATTHEW 19:4-6, NIV

4 “Haven’t you read,” he replied, “that at the beginning the Creator ‘made them male and female,’

5 and said, ‘For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and the two will become one flesh’?

6 So they are no longer two, but one. Therefore what God has joined together, let man not separate.”

2 CORINTHIANS 6:14, NIV

14 “Do not be yoked together with unbelievers. For what do righteousness and wickedness have in common? Or what fellowship can light have with darkness?”

HEBREWS 13:4, NIV

4 Marriage should be honored by all, and the marriage bed kept pure, for God will judge the adulterer and all the sexually immoral.
