Sunday’s message in the Foundations of Marriage series was called In the Beginning, taken from Matthew 19:4-6. Here is a brief outline of the message:
Biblical definition of marriage: Marriage was created by God as a sacred, covenant relationship between a man and a woman based on a public vow of lifetime faithfulness.
I. Marriage was created by God (Matthew 19:4a)
A. Part of the created order
B. The first institution
II. Male and female (Matthew 19:4b)
A. Created in God’s image (Genesis 1:27)
B. Not good for the man to be alone (Genesis 2:18)
C. A suitable helper (Genesis 2:19-23)
III. A lifetime commitment of faithfulness (Matthew 19:5)
A. Leave father and mother
B. Be united to your spouse
C. The two become one flesh
IV. A sacred, covenant relationship (Matthew 19:6)
– “What God has joined together, let man not separate.”
