What New Testament injunction is given respecting marriage?
Answer
"Let marriage be had in honor among all, and let the bed be undefiled: for fornicators and adulterers God
will judge." Heb. 13: 4, R.V.
NOTE - By many, marriage is lightly regarded-is often made even a subject of jest. its divine
origin, its great object, and its possibilities and influences for good or evil are little thought of, and hence it
is often entered into with little idea of its responsibilities or its sacred obligations. The marriage
relationship is frequently used in the Scriptures as a symbol of the relationship existing between God and
His people.
See Rom. 7:1-4; 2 Cor. 11:2; Hosea 2:19,20; Rev. 19:7.
