The bible is clear that marriage is a holy institution between a man and a woman.
God, the maker of heaven and earth from the beginning made man and woman. He gave them the commandment to be fruitful and multiply. (Gen chpt 1vs 28) And God bless them and God said be fruitful and multiply and replenish the earth and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea and over the fowl of the air and over everything that move on the surface of the earth.
Now a days, the marriage as ordained by God had been turn upside down. A man is marring another fellow man, a woman is marring her fellow woman. This is simply sacrilege committed against the holy order of the Most High God.
Nevertheless, this is not a new thing for the Lord had said it in the Holy Bible that due to the inordinate affection of man’s mind, the wish to do the wrong thing so as to make a new name (bad inventions) and his too distant from the word of God: the bible to read it daily, meditate on it and do what is written therein accordingly. Thus, this made there mind/ to be hardened against the word of God (Rom 1:18-32)
A man is not meant to be a terror against his wife, by wife battering, unfaithfulness to her and general ill treatments. The bible said : Both of them shall become one. (Gen 2:24-24) Therefore shall a man leave his father and mother and cleave to his wife and both of them shall become one flesh. And were both naked both the man and his wife and were not ashamed.
This simply means that once you beat your wife or you are unfaithful to him in one way or the other, then you are killing your self gradually and unknowingly.
The purpose of God for your marriage is to bear Godly children. The children that will know about the word of God and obey it. This is the function of the parents to teach their wards about the word of God so as when they Grow up they will not turn away into worldliness. The book of proverb said train up a child in the way that he should go and after that he will not depart from it.
The young men and women that had not yet married and you are into girl friends boy friends, that is to say fornication. You are destroying your lives. Your lives are getting diminished progressively. The best thing to do is to come to JESUS CHRIST today so that you will not perish in the lake of fire at the end of the world.
DIVORCE,
This is not a biblical principle. The bible says a man and his wife are one flesh, one body and one being.
God said in the book of Malachi 2:16 "For I hate divorce, says the LORD the God of Israel, and covering one's garment with violence, says the LORD of hosts. So take heed to yourselves and do not be faithless." God hates divorce. Any divorce can not make heaven.
Duet 24:1 "When a man takes a wife and marries her, if then she finds no favor in his eyes because he has found some indecency in her, and he writes her a bill of divorce and puts it in her hand and sends her out of his house, and she departs out of his house”.
Matt 5:31-32 "It was also said, 'whoever divorces his wife, let him give her a certificate of divorce.'
But I say to you that every one who divorces his wife, except on the ground of unchastely makes her an adulteress; and whoever marries a divorced woman commits adultery”.
Matt 19:8-9 He said to them, "For your hardness of heart Moses allowed you to divorce your wives, but from the beginning it was not so.
And I say to you: whoever divorces his wife, except for unchastely and marries another, commits adultery.
Luke 16:18 “Every one who divorces his wife and marries another commits adultery and he who marries a woman divorced from her husband commit adultery”.
God so much hates divorce that he want all to be holy unto him and been faithful to our marriage partner.
Any country that legalizes divorce is an anti Christ nation or country. Any country that legalizes marriage of the same sex is an anti Christ country. Any country that legalizes abortion is an anti Christ country.
The bible encourages us to remain single if we can so that we will be totally focused and committed to the things of God with an undivided heart. Matt 19:10-12 “the disciples said to him, "If such is the case of a man with his wife, it is not expedient to marry."
But he said to them, "Not all men can receive this saying, but only those to whom it is given.
For there are eunuchs who have been so from birth, and there are eunuchs who have been made eunuchs by men, and there are eunuchs who have made themselves eunuchs for the sake of the kingdom of heaven. He, who is able to receive this, let him receive it."
1cor 7:1, 9 “now concerning the matters about which you wrote. It is well for a man not to touch a woman. 9 But if they cannot exercise self-control, they should marry. For it is better to marry than to be aflame with passion”.
"Any of the couple that leaves the other is simply called ADULTRY.1Corth 7:1-19.
A man that leaves his wife for any reason other than that she committed then the man also had committed the same offense against himself and against God.
This is also applicable to the wife if she leaves her husband for any reason other than he committed adultery can she leave him. The bible says “all other sins that a man committed is to the external body but the sin of fornication or adultery is a sin committed to once body.”
The bible also says that God hate divorce. Divorce is another way of incurring God’s wrath on the household, the court that issued the divorce letter and the country at large.
GOD AND MARRIAGE.
Marriage is an institution established by God. God therefore regards marriage as a sacrosanct institution.
Any man or woman that is not ready for family life should not go into it. Marriage is not what one can just run into. Once one gets into it, the door of going out is closed. Just like the Ark of Noah which was shut by God Himself and therefore is allowed Noah to open the door to any body that was not prepared to escape.
To the teens and early twenties marriage or girl or boy friends (fornication) relationships is not recommended by God. He wants you to be fully or totally prepared for the challenges to face as a family man or woman. Therefore you must stay under your parents to learn there good ways of rising up a family.
The bible says in the book of Proverb that “children obey your parents in the Lord for this his right to do”
Some people are of the view that the keeping of boy or girl friends will help one to be able to gather experiences for the right choice of life partner to have.
NO WAY, the word of God says that be thou holy or perfect as your father in heaven is holy or perfect. (Matt 5:48) And for this reason Jesus Christ came to the world that he might destroy the works of the devil.(1 John3: 7-9).
All this so call test and error is both a deception of the devil to destroy youths lives before they grow up to know the purpose of God for themselves so that his kingdom will not be in trouble by this holy and Godly youths.
Therefore, it is a way to make you commit fornication and sin against God, destroying your lives.
Therefore watchfulness entails.
PARENTS RESPONSIBILITIES.
Parents are to ensure that there wards grow up to be God fearing. That is they must know about God and do accordingly what the bible says we should do to grow up as a living Christian.
These basic things are: PRAYING EVERY TIME 1Thess 5:17 that is not when you are in danger or troubles. READ THE BIBLE DAILY Joshua 1:8 , 2 Tim 2 :15, so as to know what God want and what he does not want us to do for that day or moment, and ATTEND A BIBLE BELIEVING CHURCH 2Tim 4 . This makes you to grow among other sound believers in the true word of God.
All this can be done in the family alter. That is the family’s morning devotion. Personal devotions of the children and the parents must be done also in the morning separate from the family’s morning devotion. These are very important Godly parent duties.
If you fail in this very basic way then you have failed in all ramifications. Then you and your family will be doomed for hell fire for eternity and the parents or the father receiving the lion share of the condemnation.
All other responsibilities are secondary.
