I) Loneliness
Because God made us social creatures, loneliness is a problem for man – – and marriage is God’s answer to that problem
When man devises a plan to solve a problem, it always falls short of the goal – ; ; ; – and this would also include the various designs of man to solve loneliness
Yet, God’s plan needs no revisions, modernizations, or “do-overs” –
II) Marriage is dependent on us
God’s messages concerning marriage are very individual (written to wives and husbands separately) – ; ; – and not about what to look for in a spouse, but what kind of spouse we are to be
“Good” marriages are entirely dependent upon us, not our spouse; since “good” is defined by God –
God’s instructions about living with unbelieving spouses is clear – ; – it does not pollute the marriage; but the believer, who lives according to God’s design, sanctifies the marriage
III) Marriage represents our relationship with God
Paul calls this a great mystery – – and emphasizes throughout the likeness of the two relationships – vs.22, 24-25, 28-29
God considers marriage to be permanent, because He also intends our bond with Him to be permanent – ; ; – which is why it is called “impossible” to renew a fallen one to God –
Concl: When we understand the logic of God, we understand all the more why marriage is truly for life.
