Bible Question: i made an covenant vow with this man that i love and with God that I take him as my husband, without a witness God was the witness. Are we considered to be in a covenant marriage ? eventhough we don't have a lic.? |
Bible Answer: Hi tiji, I don't know where you live, although it sounds like you may live in a place that requires a marraige license for you to be legally married. If that is true, since God requires us to follow the laws of our governing authorities, then no, you are not married. Marraige differs from culture to culture, and the presupposition from Scripture is that we follow the requirements for our culture. I hope this helps! Love in Christ, Mark |
