A Detailed, Multi-Part Look At Biblical Marriage And Divorce Series

Contributed by Dr. Craig Nelson on Sep 20, 2019

Second, only to a personal relationship with God, marriage is the single most important relationship that a Born-Again Christian will ever have.

Marriage is the most HOLY thing they will ever do. Marriage is about living in harmony, commonality, and agreement, which is impossible without both partners being Born-Again (See 2 Cor 6:14-7-2). It should be entered into just like the High Priest entering into the Holy of Holies - with reverent ...read more

Contributed by Dr. Jerry Hulse on Aug 8, 2022

Whom Will You Meet In Heaven? Series
