Marriage often, the institution of marriage is not one of ancestry. It is covenanted between two individuals who may have been complete strangers in the early years of their life. Marriage is a chosen covenant, not a bond based on natural birth. It is not regulated by genealogy, and inequalities do not hinder it. Marriage has strong claims on our attention as a matter of religious reflection since it is intimately interwoven with both the temporal and spiritual prosperity and pleasure of humanity. M arriage has the highest level of sanctity; therefore, those
who are conscious of it seek it out and work to preserve it. When they do find it, they do not lose interest in seeing that it develops in grace so that the fullest benefits of its blessing might be realized. Although the Bible makes reference to the sanctity of the married state, people almost universally reject the concept. Thankfully, marriage is always recognized as a hallowed institution in the true Church of God. E very Marriage that God has approved unites God, man and woman. That marriage is always clearly a Trinity in One. And it appears that the sanctification that the Divine blessing bestows on the union is what gives such marriages their sanctity. This could be what makes up its irrevocable quality:
"What therefore God has joined together, let not man put asunder (separate)." (Matthew 19:6).
There is no prohibition against severing the ties that God has not established. The warning that man, who can only look at the outside appearance, cannot separate people who, in the apparent appearance, have been joined by God may need to be repeated throughout the book. Marriage's two mysterious components, unity and sanctity, should be seen as its core or the point of connection for all other elements whether they be causes or effects. The Mystery Of Becoming One Flesh (1)
W e usually hear about unity among married couples, but I
sincerely doubt that many of them truly understand what it entails. Unfortunately, many husbands and wives have very little personal knowledge of unity in marriage. To explain the unity between a husband and wife, various hypotheses have been proposed. One is the concept that the husband and wife have a mystical connection that unites them and turns them into one flesh during sexual activity. It was once acknowledged by human laws as being necessary for a marriage to be complete, and it continues to have some influence on people's opinions. Other issues may arise as a result, for which this is not the appropriate forum.
The word family has several definitions. However, for the purposes of this book, I will only talk about two of them. The simple depiction of a family is a household where a man, the husband, a woman, the wife, children, and other dependents live together under his authority, protection, and leadership. That is how a family is represented. In one other sense, a family is defined as all people who can be related through males to a common ancestor. Usually, the word "race" describes a family of that nature.
Society is necessary for the well-being of man. The foundation of all governmental and social structures is the family. According to the divine plan, the head of the home should be one man who is married to one woman for life.
