THE
MARRIAGE COVENANT
challenges
Christians to
reject the
secularization
and
easy-dissolution
of marriage by
accepting instead
the Biblical view
of marriage as a
sacred, life-long
covenant. This
important book is
designed to
strengthen your
Christian home
through a
recovery of those
Biblical
principles
established by
God to ensure
happy and lasting
marital
relationships.
Some of the
significant
questions
examined in the
book are: What
guidance does the
Bible offer on
how to build up a
strong marriage
covenant
relationship?
What is the
Biblical role of
the husband and
the wife? Does
the Bible view
the function of
sex as
exclusively
procreational or
also as
relational? Are
there Biblical
grounds for
divorce and
remarriage? Is a
Christian who
remarries guilty
of continuous
adultery? Should
a minister marry
divorced people
and should
remarried people
be accepted
automatically
into church
membership? These
are some of the
questions
examined with
sound Biblical
scholarship and
in a style that
most people can
understand.
