Bible Question: My fiance believes that we are considered married, just because we said a prayer unto GOD that we are married,which he says that it is only between us and GOD. Also he believes that we are now allowed to have sex. I think I need lots of help. Confused.... |
Bible Answer: That's a good question and the answer (which is also already in your heart) applies to MANY things in a Christian's life. Read Romans chapter 13, the gist of which states that Christians are to live lives in the full legal manner of the ruling authorities. I'm assuming you're in the US, or at least another country which clearly defines marriage as a civil union that must be recognized by the State. The only exceptions to legal things are where they conflict with God's requirements. Having a legally recognized marriage is not in conflict and therefore required by Christians. |
