Christian Marriage
The Christian view of marriage historically has
regarded marriage as ordained by God for the lifelong union of one man and one
woman. Recently, liberal attitudes from the influences of the sexual
revolution have gained ground among many Christian groups. Marriages between
two persons of the same gender, or divorce through mutual consent are both new
views brought on by the sexual revolution. These views, though now popular in
the modern day, conflict with and contradict beliefs that have been present in
Christianity since its founding.
Proponents of the traditional view principally support it with a principle
first articulated biblically in the second chapter of the book of Genesis:
Therefore a man shall leave his father and mother and be joined to his wife,
and they shall become one flesh. Jesus referred back to this principle in His
teachings on marriage. It is recorded in both the Gospels of Matthew and Mark:
