Our concept of marriage must be positive and more mature, modeled after Christ's attentiveness toward the Church, as opposed to the world's distorted concept.

Scripture holds the divinely ordained institution of marriage in high regard. Here is why God considers marriage to be so important to us, society, and His purpose.

God established the order of family relationships, creating Eve after Adam, not as a slave, but as a companion, prefiguring Christ and His Church.

Wives are admonished to submit to their husbands, children to their parents, servants to their overseers, and we all are admonished to submit to one another.

Just as a bride gains a new identity, name, and inheritance through marriage, God's chosen saints, share Christ's very life, glory, and eternal prospects.

The marriage covenant must be elevated to the stature of Christ and the church. A caring husband must love his wife as he nourishes his own physical body.

When we consider the awesome contrast of what we were before God called us and what we are now, we cannot allow ourselves to commit spiritual fornication.

Jesus' response to His mother at the wedding—'My hour has not yet come'—was not disrespect but perhaps a challenge to attach real faith with mere knowledge.

The fact that Abraham, Jacob, David, and Solomon multiplied wives does not imply that the Bible endorses polygamy, which produces bad fruit.

God's called and chosen people are being prepared, under Christ's direction, to become His perfect and faithful helpmate for eternity.

God expects works from all He has called. We show our faithfulness and loyalty to God by our works or conduct - what we produce by what we have been given.

Paul urges Euodia and Syntyche to follow the example of Christ rather than placing their desire to be right over unity. Godly leadership follows submission.

The Bible frequently uses analogies from physical life to explain spiritual principles. There are over 700 references to eating in Scripture.
