Weekly Words of Instruction

7/27/2003

 
With all the laws being proposed to alter marriage as we know it, one can be assured that we are currently witnessing a powerful assault upon this holy union. People must realize that man cannot change what God has established, for if man tries to do so, he will be found to be fighting a losing battle against God (Genesis 2:18, 21–25, Acts 5:39, Acts 9:5). In Hebrews 13:4, the word of Almighty God teaches that "marriage is to be held in the highest esteem among all." Now, that means all men are to view this holy union as sanctioned by God, and to respect the laws which God has revealed to preserve this union (Matthew 19:1–9, Romans 7:1–3).

The definition of marriage is simple and it is plain; for God has made it perfectly clear what marriage is, and no court or government has God's approval to define marriage as being anything else (Proverbs 30:5–6). God said that marriage is a loving union between a man and a woman that is to last until death do them part. Now, just in case someone didn't quite understand, let me state it once again. God said that marriage is a loving union between a man and a woman that is to last until death do them part. This is the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth (John 17:17, John 8:31–32). This truth is what God has said, and this truth is what the faithful will teach and defend (Jude 3).

Hope to hear from you or to see you at the services.
