3 years ago I asked the Lord if he was calling me to be single or marriage. He showed me a dream in which I saw the silhouette of a girl. Sometime later he used a girl I knew to prophecy to me about her hair color, skin tone, eye color and age. (She has a past of prophesying about similar traits in her friends babies before there born). When I wondered how long, 3 years would come to mind. A few months ago he showed me what should would like like out of nowhere as I layed down to sleep and she matched what the girl told me she would look like. Although, as I draw closer, I am very intimidated by the concept of marriage due to much divorce in my family and trusting someone. Please pray for me if you read this. I will come back and update this comment when i meet her if it is the Lord's will.
Hi it is our lords will. I pray and asked God in Jesus’s name to bring me a living man. He sent me a wonderful man. We know each other for three months and he wants to marry me. This is ironic because he was also asking for a living caring woman. He sent me to him but he had to make his first move. He told me he was nervous, and afraid of rejection. God has a plan. Be patient for God will send you the right person. He knows you are the right one for your certain person. Who knows? It ma possibly be a friend of yours that God is sending your friend to do the setting you up with that special person. Remember, God works in mysterious ways. He talks to people through other people. Those are signs to not ignore. However, just keep in mind of the red flags in the other person. Just don’t worry, don’t doubt Gods work. Just be cautious because that person can change and God will send you another through that friend of yours if that’s what Jesus has planned for you. Remember through Jesus? ALL things are possible.
Loving*
@@veronicanoriega9410 thank you for your heartfelt reply :)
Similar to you, I basically made a bet with God when it comes to having kids... I basically said “If you ever want me to have kids you need to send me a partner that’s worthy.” I’ve been dating someone that I want to marry for the past six months and he is open to having children someday. 🙂
However, I don’t always find it wise to put a timeline on things... Or even physical attributes. The physical attributes should be used as a way for you to become aware of how you feel when you look at her. The feeling doesn’t get lost in translation, just about everything else does 🙏
Thank you so much Mark, for taking the time and effort to make these videos!! As a young, single Christian man who has wrestled in the past with loneliness and depression, your videos have been a tremendous encouragement and an invaluable resource for me.. and for many other viewers, I'm sure. Please keep them coming, and let us know if there is any other way we can support your ministry. GOD Bless you brother!
David D'Souza thanks so much brother, it's a blessing to hear that God is using AGW in your life. Keep us in your prayers that AGW will help more and more people in the years to come. God bless!
Hang in there my brother God will open the door. Or he may not to serve his will. I was lonely just like that for years and I took the time to get to love Yeshua. Best thing I ever did. Relashionships are very difficult. Not all is as it appears. Let his grace fore fill you.
@Tyler Gibson Looking back now, I realize, any longing I had, HAD to be fulfilled by Jesus Christ first, for His Sake and also for mine, or else even a good thing would be ruined as an idol. Therefore, don't be stubborn as I was. Seek to have your longings filled by Christ before you seek something else you think will fill it. Even if it doesn't fully make sense how He can, keep seeking Him to fill your longings. I pray that really shortens your learning curve and saves you a lot of heart ache and when God sees we're ready, He may bring us more than we could ever hope for. Or may be by then, all we ever hope for is Him. God Bless you Tyler Gibson. His Grace is sufficient for you!
Hey my name is Darius. I was look for a video about what does Jesus say about marriage and I clicked on your video. I wanted to say I was truly impacted by your video! I gained such great perspective!!
Praise God my brother..
I have received one dream about the woman that God wants me to be with that has replayed every single time an unequally yoked group of people tried to mess that situation up. For instance insisting polygamy and LGBT marriage. Persisting through those temptations for 3 years has lead me to the woman I'm currently up right now praying for and asking guidance about from God if she is the one and all the signs are adding up. Thank you LORD
I receive your blessing to the full commitment.
A lovely summary of Biblical truth. God bless
Great topic. Just to mention; the last one is the very complex and that's where many of us fail because we are humans with feelings. When feelings are hurt we can not hide it and our emotions will openly manifest that in the way we will relate till we receive healing. It's only by God's Grace we can be able to adhere to that - "Husbands to comletely represent Christ like relationship and wives to the His chruch" God bless..
The people have lost much love in these latter days.Apostle Paul mentioned let every man have a wife,but how easy it was in his time,but not now. Its why he was shocked by his prophetic vision of these latter days,men are lovers of themselves.Also Jesus foresaw these days in matthew@ Because of the multiplication of wickedness, the love of most will grow cold.' People are in fear.there is less trust,less love. Jesus will return soon.
When i comment this I'm asuming your not married yet, First thing to know marrige is the plan of God our Creator, and your mind body and spirit needs to be prepared for it,
To find the best one
Know what you need and ask for it(pray about it) and wait for Gods guidance, first criteria should be " the fear and respect for Jesus our creator God"
* prepare to love with out expectations, because if the women is a Godly women she will definitely love and respect you back with out any pressure,
** as a husband know what your responsibilities are and be prepared to be it, work only on those responsibilities that the bible expects from you not her,when you do your wife love and submission will be with joy not by force,your actions leads her to an awesome relationship, children are a blessing from God they should follow,you are the head for your family and you are responsible to lead and guid them in the ways of God, so that they will end up loving God and serving him,your futer wife is your helper,both parts won't succeed with out each other.
Best kept secret is :- pray for every needs in every area of your life
God loves to hear us say what we really want, need and desire and why,even if he knows it
Knock until it happens never give up. Luke 18.
Prays for a successful marriage to a rich man amen ❤
thanks you helped with my homework
mya dorey me too👍
Same lolol
What does the Bible say marriage is? Anytime you read any passage about marriage in the Bible, what does it say? Does it not say that to become married you must become one? And to become one does it not say you must have sex? Does it say anywhere that you have to have a ceremony? Or does it say anywhere that you have to sign a legal contract? No! The only thing that the Bible says about marriage is sex, which is becoming one. King David had hundreds of wives, not because he had a ceremony with all of his concubines, but because he slept with all of them. You become one through sex and becoming one is marriage. This is something that the church fails to recognize. Let's say for instance we use a different example. Baptism for instance. Baptism is not sanctification. It is an outward sign of what has already happened inwardly. The same goes for marriage. Having a ceremony or putting on a ring or signing a piece of paper is not marriage. That is the outward sign to the world that you are now married. Marriage though however, happens in the heart in private just like our relationship with Jesus Christ happens in our heart and in private. God has let us have this guide in our life where all things are the same. We can compare our relationship to him to every other relationship and have an answer to what is what. Everything happens in the heart. It is not what goes into the body which defiles, but what comes out of the heart that defiles. God is not interested in ceremonies or legal contracts. God is interested in our heart and what we do with it. This is something that Christians need to understand and stop thinking that a legal contract has any meaning to God whatsoever. Stay abstinent until you're ready to marry and if you've had sex before marriage, I hate to break it to you but you are now married in the eyes of God. And no man can separate that. Not through a legal contract either. The Bible is clear about that as well.
If you've had sex with someone, you are married to them.
There's a lot of this type of thing that the church doesn't teach today. You'd be surprised how much we don't know. Another example is cussing. The bible doesn't really talk about it. It talks about cursing. Which is whichcraft. Has nothing to do with language. But if it did, then crap means the same as shit. Do you think God is offended by the arrangement of letters? Of course not!!! Don't be silly. He cares about what comes out of the heart...aka intent. If you believe shit is a sinful word, then i hate to break it to you, but crap means the same thing. Shoot does too. So, figure out your heart and leave legality behind you.
I agree with the first part .. but the cussing… no. The Bible says to rid filthy language. Cussing is filthy language.
Facts💯🙏🏼 but the bible does talk about swearing and cursing is sinful because it is slander and it comes out of your mouth which is the mouthpiece of your heart... stay up Jesus Loves You🙏🏼❤️
Gid does not value the sanctity of marriage iver the sanity and safety of His children IN it. He does not call people tonstay in abusive relationships of any kind. I wish you had been more clear about that.
Mark... You the real M.V.P...
I couldn't do this without all my teammates 😂
❤ Agree 💯
Mark, I was in a 31 year marriage with someone that was mean and hateful. The words that were spoken to me and the experiences I had will never leave my memory. I have forgiven him and we remain friends, only because I feel more in charge of myself. I have gone through therapy, but it is so expensive. Do you have suggestions on someone, living a Godly life that has gone through divorce, that has a podcast and could help people like me?
Btw, I listen to you everyday. Your content is wonderful and straight to the point with scripture that backs it all.
Mean and hatful ? I don’t believe u honestly
Thank you sir for this video
But I wish preachers would make it Clear that a state wedding isn't what God says marriage is. I think you can fast as a partnership to get rid of soul ties etc.. and exchange vows /agreement... And you're married
@Georgia merx I see thanks for educating me 💫
David had many wives but he was not punished until he took another man’s wife
Is it bad to be a man of God and not wanting to be married? I’ve been struggling with this question for a while.
No just remain single and don't sex or mastubate
Really enjoyed your video thank you. I have a question I would like some clarity on if you can help me. So the bibly doesn't talk about marriage being in court and putting a ring on the finger. So how would you say we are married legally according to what the Bible says? If my girlfriend and I are planning to get married soon are we basically married in the sight of God as he knows our hearts are set on one another?
Well said.
Thank you so much! This was very informative!!
Mark 10:4:9 But what about abuse? You have to be loyal to abuser and tolerate it?
Thanks for all but I would like to know when God recognize that two people are married. Is it when they decide that they want to pass the rest of their lives together or when they go to church to legalize in front of people?
Thanks and be blessed
Wow I was wondering the same thing .
@Tyler Gibson so what about people who marry without the ceremony? For example it wasn’t uncommon for slaves to go out in the woods with their significant other and jump over a broomstick as their marriage ceremony. Is that valid?
Thank you. Soo good❤😊
Thank you brother 🙏 God bless you always 🙏 Amen 🙏♥️✝️
I'm very curious as to when the Bible talks about marriage does it mean in front of a judge with a piece of paper and also I noticed in the Bible that talked about a man having a wife but sleeping with the maids to reproduce children is that considered adultery ?
Praise God 🙏
Amen!
On the other hand. 💊I'm sharing Acts 2:38 bless
Marriage is part of God Marriage is a Blessing For a Man's and also is a Man's Fullfillment
which is why same sex marriage is awesome for bnon heterosexuals
I should have ended my marriage years ago and saved alot of hurt feelings....but do you blame me? I loved her and wanted it to work. I had our whole future to be excited for and held onto hope. I loved our family and our upcoming baby and we also had a second one while trying to make it work.... I love my family but clearly see I should have ended it. If only she wanted to fix it as much as I did... she refused marital counseling saying that statistics tell her counseling doesn't work.....without trying. This broke me... I live alone trying to fight for time to see my children. She convinced the court that covid was a valid reason to keep me from the children. I'm still fighting. Over 3 years now. Missed Christmas's, birthdays, fathers day... I'm a wreck. I miss my babies. She replaced me Ina month and 2 new boyfriends are around my kids more than I am. I've been able to see them 9 times over almost 4 years.
I’ll be requesting an explanation on god about ticks and mosquitoes when we meet. I kinda do feel like I’m owed one tbh
Thanks🙏, super
If someone is a full time carer for their partner and they have recently become Christians, since coming to God have also got engaged and are planning to be wed ASAP.. Would they need to move out of the shared home untill the marriage? It is something we have been struggling with and wondered if you could please shed some light or just your opinion.
Thank you, we love your videos and God bless
Nah
Thank you 🙏
So if the wife doesn't support her husband at all but instead verbally abused him daily and no amount of mediation works what is he supposed to do
Great video, The link for the free ebook does not work. Any help? thanks and God bless.
I know the answer but would you do a video on marriage and how the order is to place from the Bible. God, husband-wife, children, family
Thanks
I was blessed by your videos
what is the process of marriage. and where is the process in the word? like step one two and three and so forth...
I also have been searching for this
Well what do you do if your wife left you but didn't divorce you?
I have a question... do I really have to get married? Pls say no
Obviously you don't have to be married. But Sexual relationships are only condoned between a married couple. So if you're planning to have sex then you would need to be married.
@@DUB_87 thank you for the news, you see I don't study marriage often, I usually study other bible question. Thank you 😀
@@DUB_87 there I do not agree, what is marriage?? You have "marriage" and being "single"
So.. marriage can be a other word of being in a relationship with a woman, did Adam and eve ever married in from of an alter or preformed a ritual??
Marriage is being to get her with the woman you really love. You can only have sex with the woman you love not with random woman or every weekend a other woman.
@@JohnDought Committed relationship between a man and a woman before God, even if both are unbelievers (but how God sees the "holiness" of the marriage is another topic). The state only RECOGNISES the already-existent union. Kinda like how you get baptised to declare you're a true Christian NOT to become Christian.
@@angelusvastator1297 where Adam and even baptized? And where they married infront of a priest, dit they used the yes I do word?
I wouldn’t mind getting married under God I don’t want to get married under the law though lol does that make sense ? Marriage is like a contract and would rather not have the government involved
Exaclty. Even getting married in a church. Like what exactly is the act of marriage.
I see religions, all religions as man made.
And Jesus God made. So I see Jesus as the truth but not religion
The marriage in front of a priest is not valid because the bible does not mandate marriage but it condones it.
@@caru3257 what
I do because you can get certain benefits with a license and also alimony if they cheat.
Hello, I have a question that has been on my heart for a long while. I got a license to marry earlier this year and got it signed by a person recognized by my state and have been living with my “spouse” since then. He and I did not stand before a judge or clergy person and recite any vows. Are we still in a covenant marriage? Since we never recited and vows before God and witnesses, does God recognize what we have as a covenant?
I believe so. If God wanted a specific formula for marriage vows, he would have stated that. I believe each culture does it differently, but as long as you have been married by the laws of your society, I believe God sees that as a real marriage.
ApplyGodsWord.com/Mark Ballenger Thank you so much. I asked because I recently found out that on the day we got a marriage license, my spouse was lying about his name, age, and a whole plethora of things. My understanding of a covenant was that both parties have to enter it with the same heart. I wasn’t sure if a covenant could be valid if one party entered it under false pretenses.
@@ApplyGodsWordcomMarkBallenger oh OK thanks. this answers my question about the traditional marriage in my country.Ghana Basically, the families have to recignize that their getting married and the man has to pay the bride price.
Marriage basically you have to make your vows publicly between God and the couple.
In Ghana, I can get culturally(our traditional marriage) married without going to "church" right?
Because marriage existed before the physical building of churches or legal documents and what not.
hello, i wanna talk you on this issue, is that possible?
Amanuel
Newly converted christian. My husband is not Christian praying for a breakthrough. What constitutes marriage according to the Bible? My husband and I we haven't gotten a piece of paper to prove Marriage nor had a ceremony. Is it society or is it scripture that we have to have a piece of paper to say we are married? We both parent our toddlers with one another we are showing the world we are two people living as one. Devoted calling each other the rolls. Husband Leads and loves our family. We're a dad and mom raising kids together forever in the end. Is this what religion would call "living in sin" Thank you for the advise and the direction to scripture.
Dear sister, God bless you, welcome to the Kingdom ❤
"... And a woman who has a husband who does not believe, if he is willing to live with her, let her not divorce him. For the unbelieving husband is sanctified by the wife, and the unbelieving wife is sanctified by the [believing] husband; otherwise your children would be unclean, but now they are holy. " 1 Corinthians 7:13-14
"In like manner, you married women, be submissive to your own husbands [subordinate yourselves as being secondary to and dependent on them, and adapt yourselves to them], so that even if any do not obey the Word [of God], they may be won over not by discussion but by the [godly] lives of their wives, when they observe the pure and modest way in which you conduct yourselves, ..."
1. Peter 3:1-2
In other words continue following Christ, pray for him (in secret), with time he will become born-again.
" But you, when you pray, go into your room, and when you have shut your door, pray to your Father who is in the secret place; and your Father who sees in secret will reward you openly. "
Mathew 6 vs. 6
Concerning your legal issue, you seem to be a beautiful Family. Whats stopping you to go to the registration office ? There's a blessing and honor that comes with being officially married:
" Marriage is honorable among all, and the bed undefiled; but fornicators and adulterers God will judge. Let your conduct be without covetousness; be content with such things as you have. For He Himself has said, “I will never leave you nor forsake you.”
So we may boldly say:
“The Lord is my helper;
I will not fear.
What can man do to me?”
Hebrews 13:4-6
Thank you Mark! I just came across something interesting about "divorce only when adultery" ...it actually is not the proper translation and from the greek it was pornography or incest. Otherwise if someone wants a divorce they just have to practice adultery and then it would be ok in front of God...basically an easy way out...I would like to also know what makes a marriage Godly? When would it be godly joined together? God bless!
@Tyler Gibson Thank you yes this is what I think as well...
The Bible does not say a woman who finds a man finds a good thing. That is false teaching and not the bible. the word says a man that finds a wife finds a good thing and shell obtain favor of the Lord. Too many people twist them words in the Bible to fit them and this is a prime example of things being out of order.
Amen !!!!!
Real question here: What do you guys think about people who get married but they do not want to have kids? I'm not talking about ppl struggling with infertility, I'm talking about people who are capable of having children yet they choose not to. Should a person still get married even though they do not want to have kids?
I mean usually your desire for marriage comes with a desire to have a family one day too. But what if the person wants to get married but they dont wanna have kids? Is it sinful?
Not at all, another purpose of marriage is partnership. As long as the both of the couple has talked about it and agreed about it then childless marriages still exists. The thing though is that the other partner would often feel deprived of his/her sexual needs which often leads to adultery then for the relationship to not last.
But childless marriages still do happen, whenever you don't wanna be alone and you wanna have a partner but don't wanna have any child. Most couples do get to have one though, but they tend to have at an old age because they realize that they're ready and they already want one.
It's really just a matter of "How would we glorify God better?"
If God didn't give the couple any desire to have kids at least during the early years of marriage then it's because they're called to do God's work together as a partner.
But I won't say that it is a sin, but depriving your partner to have sex is a bad thing or should I say unhealthy for the relationship, especially as a wife or as a husband in a marriage covenant.
But if let's say that the woman, at the early stages of the relationship, have told the guy regarding it agreed and still commits himself then he should work it out that way.
It's a negotiable thing
Amen
What is a "emotional intimacy" that crosses a line? 7:07
So if you are about to have a newborn with someone whom you are not married to, but the two of you are working towards a marriage in the future, how do you coparent without cohabiting and still honor the lord and his word? I am struggling with the fact that it will seem much like single parenting every night alone with our newborn, and will impede the bond of father and baby. Any biblical advice or scripture is welcome on this topic. Thanks!
I guess it's been a month and he never replied. It's between You and God. Marriage is when two becomes one with God. Who married Adam and Eve you need God not man to say its alright. God woke me up to all the commandments of men. Trust in the Most High. Take care my brother.
If you are planning a wedding and have full intention to marry and make this union until death. If both parties understand this now - then the legal certificate is just a formality. It protects what is underneath the certification. Why would you separate to then come back together because of a technicality.
A covenant refers to a promise made by one party to another to either do or refrain from doing a certain act.
You seal a covenant before you sign a contract.
While a contract is legally binding, a covenant is a spiritual agreement. A contract is an agreement between parties while a covenant is a pledge. You can opt out of a contract while a covenant is about having the strengths to hold up your part of the promise.
A proper form: To make a covenant it must, according to the definition above given, be by deed or under seal. No particular form of words is necessary to make a covenant, but any words which manifest the intention of the parties, with respect to the subject matter of the contract, are sufficient.
marriage: 1 man 1 woman for a lifetime is a covenant. It’s an agreement between the both parties.
A covenant is made and then the law can follow
You can even get legally divorced, but a covenant cannot be broken.
Gods omnipresence makes him a witness to our covenant ‘witness to wife of your youth’ ‘if she is a virgin, you must marry her’, ‘ you do violence for divorcing your wife’
And what about when you got married ,but you were not saved ,but then i got saved and now praying for the salvation of my husband? I know the Bible say about unequally yoke, what about this cases ,where the Lord saves you and leads you to save a unbeliever?
Well now it time for you to fight the good fight of faith. Jesus can win his heart just do your part. Watch a movie called the war room. It’s a Christian movie.
Where does it say one man and one women?
What about marriage by law?
OK FIRST OF ALL WE CANT TURN OFF LOVE AND WE DESERVE RIGHTS
...
and abrham had 2 at the same time hagar and sarah
So on marriage of one man one woman it's a big question to me can you do a video on it please
Okay. Where does it say in bible that you need to go before a judge or justice of the peace to get a little piece of paper saying I'm married? Later time I knew adam and eve never got a paper from God saying they were married. As long as you are devoted to a single man or women and are one flesh. Isnt that a marriage. Isnt a license just a piece of paper?? My problem is if your faithful to a T, and you can not get back on straight and narrow with that person. The little piece of worthless paper now just lost you half of everything you worked for. There is bible verse that refers to the gaining of skills and making more. Wouldn't that be losing? Is that little piece of paper worth losing or weakening of your faith because you " married" the wrong person??
I personally do not support marriage. but I thank you for this information. I don't have to agree to be informed
True
Polygamy sin?, did he somewhere said two wives is a sin?
Marriage is super complicated. People change, you may want your spouse physically and emotionally but they just act like a roommate.
What if the Pastor told you that you would get married in 3 months and your single?
Debra James I would ignore him and never take any of his advice, because there nothing biblically good about "psychics" especially one who claims to be caring for the flock.
Is there any word marriage there? Having a spouse was saying there... There is no ceremonial marriage to obey there...
The catholic church began conducting marriages in the 1600s. It was a family matter before that. Marriage is about faith and commitment.
Tell us the verses
What troubles me is that there is one verse that people use to justify infidelity as a reason for divorce in the verse clearly says for the cause of fornication and does not say for the cause of adultery. They are two different things and someone who is married is not committing fornication they are committing adultery therefore this verse does not apply to cheating in a marriage.
Fornication was taken so seriously that this calls was made so that if a man married a woman and discovered she was not a virgin that he could put her away quietly at the time that he discovered this.
Let me give you a little context before I ask my question. I'm planning on getting married this year. I told my wife to be, that marriage right now is nothing more than a contract between a man and woman. Because I strongly believe that love, loyalty, and commitments can be demonstrated without being legally married. I don't like the idea of a physical contract being sign for us to be husband and wife. Because I love my woman with my whole existence, however, if I need to sign a "contract", then ill sign it with every brain cell that I have. So if "God was the author of marriage" So it was his idea to get the "contract" involved when getting married?
Wow , I’m not the only one who feels like this
@@barbiesocrazy I mean, we are talking about a contract. There can be dire consequences when you overlook, misunderstand the writing in a contract. The contract that we are signing is no contract directly with God... This does not makes any sense.
Man is always changing. You don’t know what you’ll do. Yes you need a contract. And the Israelites had one too. That way no one can misconstrue what their obligations were. And if you do…then it’s worth losing half.
@@amandavalentino3818 lol, maybe in the mind of a woman, I would advice any man to setup a prenuptial agreement. Any contract can be broken!
@The Foxx
By man I meant man and woman.
Also you’ve never changed your mind before?? Don’t answer that because we all have. God allowed those standard for a legal marriage so there must be a reason. Maybe it’s cause he knows man is fickle and a mans word on one day isn’t good enough. A contract and witnesses are necessary.
The Bible does say not to be unequally yoked but it also says in 1 Corinthians 7 "12 To the rest I say this (I, not the Lord): If any brother has a wife who is not a believer and she is willing to live with him, he must not divorce her. 13 And if a woman has a husband who is not a believer and he is willing to live with her, she must not divorce him. 14 For the unbelieving husband has been sanctified through his wife, and the unbelieving wife has been sanctified through her believing husband. Otherwise your children would be unclean, but as it is, they are holy. 15 But if the unbeliever leaves, let it be so. The brother or the sister is not bound in such circumstances; God has called us to live in peace. 16 How do you know, wife, whether you will save your husband? Or, how do you know, husband, whether you will save your wife?" So if you are already married to an unbeliever you should not divorce them.
I explain that verse here: th-cam.com/video/jmfH5StJa9Y/w-d-xo.html
Can you please furnish me with the reference from the Bible which directly prohibits polygamy. Thank you
www.gotquestions.org/polygamy.html
The story of Adam and Eve shows us why it is important for the man to lead and not the woman.
What do scripture say about prenuptial agreements? Are they okay or no?
I don't think it mentions it... but im not fully educated on scripture, so i could be totally wrong
I have a question about marriage when someone is married is it a sin to sin someone else
What?
Yes because when you sin someone is when you put sin on another person so your spreading devils message. You should spread gods message.
Lovely really lovely....PRAISE THE LORD!!!!!!!! WE HAVE A LOVING SWEET LORD!!!!!!!!
1 Timothy 3:4-5 The Passion Translation (TPT)
His heart should be set on guiding his household with wisdom and dignity; bringing up his children to worship with devotion and purity. For if he's unable to properly lead his own household well, how could he properly lead God's household? You left so much out of this. The Bible is full of things about marage. And this right here with much more is also in there
Bible says- "It is perfectly all right to marry, but it is better not to get married at all. " Corinthians 7:38
It says people should marry if they want to have partners! If you want to be more like Christ and fully give your life to serving God, then, one with a very clean life, is even better to live in celibate.
But sex Is marriage !!! You said sex before marriage though must be taking the man made version of marriage
Sex alone is not marriage, where on earth do you get that idea from? 😅 In summary, a marriage relationship involves: a forsaking of parent relationships, the entering into a marriage covenant, and a sexual union where possible. If a sexual union takes place without the first two components, then the relationship is not a marriage but is sin.
Malachi 2:14-16; 1 Cor. 6:9 (if sex was marriage, fornication wouldn't exist).
I will join your community my name is Brandon johnson I have facebook
Will you marry me😂😂😂😂 marriage is funny.
Does Christianity allow for divorce? I know the Old Testament under the law of Moses allowed it for the Jews, since they’re the ones under that covenant. But in the New Testament, the Christian covenant Jesus says “what God has joined together let no man separate” & “whoever divorces a spouse and marries another commits adultery”
The Bible talks against it, but obviously the Christian church makes allowances for it since there’s so many Christian’s on their second marriage.
Malachi 2:15
Bible verses were not left
so god didnt aprove of jacob getting married to more then one woman?
The bible doesn't say that God doesn't want Christians marrying non-christians. It says God doesn't want believers marrying unbelivers. It doesn't say the word Christian.
When u say marriage is for everyone does that mean God saying there's more than 1 God? If God is a jealous God why would he be okay with ppl praying to another God 🤔 I'm so confused
Is it okay to get married to someone that have children and the mother or father of those children are still alive?
Yes, but if you are a Christian you have to look for biblical qualities: th-cam.com/video/zKLpUfLtaKk/w-d-xo.html
So wrong how you interpret Bible on Divorce , I suggest you study more about it really meaning
So why are there nuns and priests that don't marry?
Catholicism.
I know marriage is a good thing and created by God. But, what if I don't want to get married? What if marriage is not what I want for my life or my future? I'm a happy bachelor enjoying life. What I want to do is travel the world 🌎 and learn about every culture. I'm not really planning marriage for my life. Also, God is not going to force anyone to get married if that's not what they want. God is not going to posses a man to buy a ring 💍 and kneel before a woman and ask her that big question if that's not what he even wants for his life. I love being single and I honor God with my singleness.
How many wives did jacob have
SEEK THE TRUTH
YA! YA!
BUT!
WHAT ABOUT DIFFERENT CULTURES !
SUCH AS ARABE AND WHITE CULTURES, BLACK AND WHITE, CHINESE AND WHITE, ETC....
Cultures cannot disprove the historical and philosophical evidence when it comes to the RESSURECTION of JESUS and the creation of the universe by God. The bible is also well supported. Jesus said "I am the way the truth and the life"
Thanks👍👍👍
Do you have to actually get married to be in a marriage or is it just being with someone long term I don't know if there is specifically the instructions for a marriage In The Bible because man is the one that Marys and I thought you don't need anyone but God in the world To be saved so why would you have to have a priest marry you I don't want to be legally married but I don't want to feel like I am sending every day when I have sex with my girlfriend But if I am faithful to her through my life is that marriage without the ritual.
I like your videos, too
chant lyrique glad to hear it! God bless :)
so God didnt ordain Jacobs marraiges?
I just wanted to point this out...In the 2nd reason you used the Genesis passage that says “Be fruitful and multiply.” You also said that this means marriage is for the whole world, but this verse only says be fruitful and multiply nothing else. God made marriage for Believers to rejoice in the Lord and become one flesh. If you are not a Believer than this really means nothing to you.
having sex outside of marriage is a sin. the only way to be fruitful and multiply is to have sex.so that command is really about marriage
They should be arrange
What is premarital sex ?
Cohabitation isn't a biblical concept it is manmade. If you. Can show me different in scripture without corrupting context of scripture
