"Therefore shall a man leave
his father and his mother, and shall cleave unto his wife: and they
shall be one flesh." Genesis 2:24
The Christian Marriage
Part of the mission of the church is
to promote strong families. It is impossible to have a strong church
composed of weak families. Marriage is part of God’s order for
humanity. It may not be God’s individual will for everyone to be
married, but marriage, as an institution, was created for mankind in
the Garden of Eden – as a benefit and blessing.
We can have stronger, more peaceful,
more blessed, more ideal marriages and families. While the Lord does
not promise every one of us material wealth, or even physical
health, He has given us the resources we need to have a happy home.
No child of God has to live in an unhappy, unchristian environment.
