Conclusion: Marriage is a holy union. It is a relationship between the husband, wife and God. Marriage is a very serious thing. It’s not a sophomoric high-school puppy love relationship. It is a holy union instituted by God. The only adaptation to the original marriage law laid out by God is that the marriage union may be dissolved if there is infidelity. Although that is a very difficult situation, I truly believe that God would prefer that the relationship be reconciled instead of being dissolved. God is certainly a God of second chances.
Many marriage problems can be avoided if God’s plan for marriage laid out in the Garden of Eden to our first parents. For if God is lifted up, He will handle any difficult situation that comes to attack your marriage because the marriage union consists of three not two. If you are having problems in your marriage, go to God. He is able to fix any sitituation.
