Marriage Made in Heaven
Tweet
This is now the second post in a series entitled: "Lessons from the Holy Family." (Read the first post by clicking here: A "God" Thing.) And the second lesson we learn from the holy family (Mary, Joseph and Jesus) is this: Marriage is between a man and a man or a woman and a woman like we found out some years ago in England was okay. Not! Marriage isn't between a man and a man or a woman and a woman~and I don't care if Elton John disagrees. (His celebrity status was used to promote the England thing.) Instead, marriage is to be between a man and a woman. The Scripture (and Christmas story, too!) can't be clearer on this. Matthew 1:24 reads: " After Joseph woke up, he and Mary (not Larry) were soon married, just as the Lord's angel had told him to do." This is God's prescription for a man and a woman to be joined together in holy matrimony: "For this cause a man shall leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave to his wife; and they shall become one flesh." (Genesis 2:24) Marriage truly was made in heaven (not England). Watch for Part 3 in the "Lessons from the Holy Family" series to come soon.
