The God-Ordained Union

The God-Ordained Union

Sep 15, 2024

Passage: Matthew 5:31-32

Preacher: Bill Massey

Series: Sermon on the Mount

Category: Sunday Morning

Detail:

Sermon Intro: Marriage did not arise from historical forces as simply another social contract. It came down by heavenly grace as a permanent gift for mankind. It was God’s to define not man’s. And God did define it in Genesis 2.24 as one mortal life fully shared between one man and one woman. Nothing is more natural in our fallen world than trying to build a marriage on a foundation of God avoidance. But it cannot work! Without peace with God, we inevitably shatter the peace we desire with one another. Only the gospel of Jesus can free us from this endless power struggle and restore the romance, beauty, joy, and harmony God intended. This is why Jesus says: “What God has joined together, let not man separate."
