Sam GreerMarriage is in the crosshairs, and Satan has his finger on the trigger.
As the U.S. Supreme Court justices prepare to hand down their decision on what constitutes marriage, this aforementioned statement becomes more relevant. America, is it worth a look, therefore, to consider marriage by the Book?
The Bible is not just another good book about marriage, the Bible is God’s book whereby God defined and designed marriage between one man and one woman. Furthermore, God decrees “Let marriage (between one man and one woman) be held in honor among all” in Hebrews 13:4. “All” here literally means “in the case of everyone” from the Supreme Court chambers to our own houses.
In what way should the Supreme Court hold marriage in honor? Of the nine Supreme Court Justices, six of them list Roman Catholic as their religion, while the remaining three are Jewish. The three Jewish justices would do well to remember that “Let marriage be held in honor among all,” was written to a Jewish Christian audience in Hebrews.
The Roman Catholic justices would do well to remember that the Holy Trinity defined and affirmed marriage throughout the Bible. God the Father created marriage in Genesis 2:18-25 with the first wedding in the Bible occurring prior to sin entering the world. God the Son affirmed marriage between one man and one woman in Matthew 19:3-6 and said, “What God has joined together, let not man separate.” God the Spirit affirmed marriage throughout the New Testament by giving these instructions: “Wives, submit to your own husbands” and “Husbands, love your wives” in Ephesians 5:22 and 25.
