So much is going through my mind. I feel i know more of what God desires to happen IN Christian marriage than God's PURPOSE of marriage. Personally, I'm starting to feel If I do not know God's purpose of marriage,I would not consider getting married to a man I'm in love with.
I have always felt Christian marriages (Christian marrying Christians) are to be for God's glory,where it builds on the Gospel. I know of what God has planned in the role of the wife and husband based on Ephesians 5.
But the big question, is what is the purpose of Marriage? If a man or woman is in Christ, and lives for God's glory,what encourages a Christian to get married?
What motivates a Christian to remain single and what motivates a Christian to get married if either status is acceptable in God's eyes?
Thanks I really look forward in hearing your perspectives, scriptures would help too!
