The Seven
PURPOSES OF MARRIAGE

 
 

Almost every marriage ceremony includes the instruction from the pastor that marriage is not to be entered into lightly or thoughtlessly. Few who end up at the marriage altar, however, have any idea of what they are really entering into. The Seven Purposes of Marriage is a Biblical outline of God’s purposes for marriage. After all, marriage was His idea. If, as someone has said, “love is a dream,” don’t let marriage be the alarm clock for you.

 

     
What To Do If You’re Not
IN LOVE WITH YOUR SPOUSE
 

 

What a predicament to be in! Married but not “in love.” It is at this juncture that we are most often given ungodly counsel and wrong advice, advice that leads to separation and/or divorce. God is redemptive. He knows precisely how to salvage every situation and every human predicament. In this teaching you will learn right from the pages of Scripture five things not to do if you are not in love with your spouse and three things to do. If you act on God’s advice you will get Godly results. You will end up truly in love with your spouse, but only if you follow His advice!

Here are the Seven Bible Instructions For Husbands and Wives.
