1Co7

Redefining marriage was never in Paul's mind. It has always been for a man and a woman committed for a lifetime. Godly marriage and permanent marriages were on Paul's mind!

But notice what was even more important to Paul…devotion to Christ! Marriage is to be a way in which we are held accountable to our relationship with Jesus. As husbands and wives we are to call our spouses to greater devotion to Christ. He is the foundation of a healthy marriage.

Marriage is NOT the goal in life. Honoring Christ is. Whether we are single or married we should be seeking to honor Him.
