Marriage is honourable for all. Heb 13:4 Marriage is honorable in every way, so husbands and wives should be faithful to each other. God will judge those who commit sexual sins, especially those who commit adultery.
Marriage should be only in the Lord. 1 Corinthians 7:39 A married woman must remain with her husband as long as he lives. If her husband dies, she is free to marry anyone she wishes, but only if the man is a Christian.
Marriage is divinely instituted. Ge 2:24. That is why a man will leave his father and mother and will be united with his wife, and they will become one flesh.
Designed for
a. The happiness of man. Ge 2:18. Then the LORD God said, “It is not good for the man to be alone. I will make a helper who is right for him.”
b. Increasing the human population. Ge 1:28 God blessed them and said, “Be fertile, increase in number, fill the earth, and be its master. Rule the fish in the sea, the birds in the sky, and all the animals that crawl on the earth.”
Ge 9:1 God blessed Noah and his sons and said to them, “Be fertile, increase in number, and fill the earth.
c. Raising up godly seed. Mal 2:15 Didn’t ⸤God⸥ make you one? Your flesh and spirit belong to him. And what does the same ⸤God⸥ look for but godly descendants? So be careful not to be unfaithful to the wife of your youth.
d. Preventing fornication. 1 Co 7:2 But in order to avoid sexual sins, each man should have his own wife, and each woman should have her own husband.
