Most believe it’s about having some extravagant wedding, or rings, etc…

According to Jesus/Yeshua. It’s when a man and woman become one. In otherwords, laying down with their becoming husband or wife. While states require people to record their marriage: one can simply do so by going to a justice of peace office or something. There is no need for some extraordinary bi-laws in having some big wedding scene, priest or pastor to make this connection happen. The personal choice to “connect” is the deciding factor. At least in Gods eyes that is how he see it, and so his Son states, in Matthew 19:1-6. A common lesson not taught in most congregations.

While I never knew this before, I’ve been divorced at least 6 times. I wish I would have known about it sooner but alas; what can you do when you weren’t raised in these notions.

What people do is between themselves and Yahavah. Some people desire for God, some don’t, I can’t judge. However if something is illegal and not right which involves someone being hurt, that’s when you go to the authorities. Some people say down with the government, some people do not. I believe the government and police all serve a purpose. This is simply Jesus definition of marriage. Some people will agree, some people with disagree and some people won’t care, and some people will hate the message round about.

Marriage is both a spiritual and a social thing which the bible clear shows from genesis definition of marriage to the e samples through the bible.

Jesus's parents went through both the betrothal and wedding ceremonies.
Jesus attended the wedding at Cana.

He clearly resp3cted the institution God had created and so should we.

Living together, casual sex while dating are not for Christians.
Not just because of scripture but also because the statistical data clearly supports the Christian view of courting and marriage.
