What does the God of the Bible say about Marriage?

Our society today is at a point where it has decided that marriage can be between anyone or almost anything as long as the two objects involved are in "love" with each other.  But the God of the Bible has a different view.  When He made Adam and Eve God set the biblical standard for what marriage looks like.  Marriage is made between man and woman because God is looking for a relationship that provides a standard which will be able to reproduce after His kind.

When looking at a majority of the other types of relationships that people want to be united to we see that they are not able to reproduce after their "kind" in a biological manner.  God wants relationship with us.  He wants children who follow after His ways and methods.  When living outside of His intentions for what marriage is suppose to be His standards get perverted and lost in a world who just wants to rebel against Him and thus we have a society which tries to define love in any way it feels is best for itself.

This is why there are so many broken marriages, gay marriages, and the like.  People want to define and shape what they feel love is not by the One who gave us His love, but by their own selfish desires.  The Bible declares that God is love.  But their are boundaries and standards for that love and that includes the biblical standard of marriage between a man and a woman.  When a person says they love someone but their is no commitment that is not love.  So many of our young people are afraid to commit their love to another person of the opposite sex because they are afraid that it won't work out. They rather "shack up".  They have witnessed a lack of commitment to love and so they don't know how to carry it out for themselves.   Love is not a feeling. It does not come and go.  It is a commitment which Christ showed us in that when we were yet sinners He died for us.  Even now He holds out His hand to us wanting to love Him back, though His love for you and me never has stopped.  The same should be true in marriage.  There will be difficulties and there will be failures but when one makes that commitment to love that other person than it will endure because if God is in the midst of it than the bond will be most difficult to break. 

So if you are someone who is not sure what love looks like I suggest that you get to know the God of the Bible.  Read the gospel of John and see what Christ says love is.  For once we understand His love for us than we will know how to love others and this includes what a true marriage looks like.  For after all He wants to be married to you.  And as He teaches you about Himself you will than be able to reflect that love into the marriage that He intends for you to have with the person He has called you to spend your life with. 

Is Liberalism a Religion?

The more I spend time pondering what Liberalism has become the more I am convinced that it is a religion on its own.  I have encountered people who adhere to this philosophy and they are as zealous about it as any committed Muslim is to carrying out the thoughts and ideas of their religious beliefs.  Have we ever seen a time in American history where a group of people have radically opposed a sitting president as we do with this group of Liberals?  In the time that I have been on this people planet I have never seen anything like it.  I know that people have not been happy with who is office, no matter which party they belong to, but I have never have seen such opposition to one person as I have seen brought against President Trump.

Liberals have become so blinded to what truth is that they believe that anyone who opposes them must be either removed or destroyed so that what they believe has no opposition.  This nation was founded on the fact that we have the freedom to express our ideas even though those ideas may differ on their outcome and direction.  That is one thing that has made America such a great nation.  We are able to have the debate about what is best for us and then decide which path we should take.  Our strength has been our diversity, but now that diversity instead of unifying us is breaking us a part.  Liberalism is much more closely aligned with everything that America was not founded upon.  Marriage, the nuclear family, the sanctity of life are things this nation bedrock were based on because of our biblical foundation.  But Liberals, working through the doctrines of devils, have helped to cast doubt on this Christian foundation through educating children  for generations that the God of the Bible is just a myth.  Thus we now live in a nation that's younger generation has not been taught the truth of this nation founding and have instead replaced it with a hatred for this nation which states that all the problems of the world stem from what this nation supposedly did to rob the world of what it deserves.

This could not be farther from the truth.  Despite the devil's attack this nation still spends more money on helping others in need and in sending out people into the world to minister Jesus' message of hope and love to those who need it.  The Church of Jesus Christ can no longer stand by at let the Liberal philosophy hold our nation captive.  We must make our stand and let our voice be heard.  We must take the gospel of the Kingdom of God to the nations with love and boldness.  This includes those who have made the gospel of Liberalism their faith.  Let us boldly show them a better way.
