Marriage
Origin of Marriage
Marriage has been established by the Creator; it is therefore not a humanly devised institution. It existed from the beginning, as Jesus himself defined the origin and essence of marriage.
What About Polygamy?
The Bible makes it clear that He intends marriage to be between one man and one woman—as it was “from the beginning.” Any challenge to this teaching stands in opposition to God’s plan for His creation. Paul finished this analogy by stating, “let each one of you in particular so love his own wife as himself.
Injustice By Supreme Court
On one June day in 2013, the United States witnessed a momentous change as the nation slouched further away from the absolute truths found in the Bible. If churches or religious organizations with federal nonprofit status decide to teach against same-sex marriage in states where it is now legal, their nonprofit status could be revoked.
Interracial Marriage
When the Human Genome Project was completed, “the researchers unanimously declared, there is only one race—the human race.” This means that from a biblical and observational scientific perspective, interracial marriage is nonexistent. Christians need to examine such matters from a biblical perspective.
