MARRIAGE (10 Words to Heal Our Broken World Series)

  • サマリー

  • Historically, the definition of marriage has been rich, calling humanity toward a knowledge of the truth of our very nature. Based on biblical principles, marriage was understood to be: “A God-ordained, comprehensive, exclusive, and permanent union that brings a man and a woman together as husband and wife, to be father and mother to any children their union brings into being. It is based on the anthropological truth that men and women are different and complementary, the biological fact that reproduction depends on a man and a woman, and the social reality that children need both a mother and a father.”

    Today, marriage has been radically redefined and simply means "a legally recognized, romantic caregiving relationship between consenting adults who intend to live together as sexual and domestic partners."

    Can the redefinition of a word so transform our thinking that the actual truth and meaning of the word becomes extinct? In today's episode, Scott Allen, author of the upcoming book, 10 Words to Heal Our Broken World, responds by analyzing how we got here, considering the consequences of holding this definition, and helping us discern how we can bring God's truth back to this critical word. As Christians, we absolutely must not let the meaning of marriage continue to slide further and further from God's original definition. It's far past time, but not too late, for us as believers to stand up for marriage for the sake of our communities, nations, children, and for generations to come.
