AMEN ALLELUIA HEBREWROOTS98
Sorin:
"3-YOU SAY THAT YOUR ARE EXCLUSIVELY COMMITTED TO THIS ONE PERSON IN ALL WAYS, FOR A LIFETIME (THUS, A MARRIAGE), AND THEN YOU GO OUT AND HAVE SEX WITH ANOTHER PERSON, YOU HAVE THEN BROKEN YOUR WORD/VOW/COVENANT OF STAYING COMMITTED TO ONLY THAT ONE SPECIAL PERSON FOR A LIFETIME; THUS YOU HAVE COMMITTED 'ADULTRY' BY BREAKING YOUR PROMISE TO STAY WITH THAT PERSON AND NOONE ELSE; (THEN YOU HAVE ALSO COMMITTED 'FORNICATION'. (FORNICATION IS HAVING SEX IN AN UNCOMMITTED WAY, WETHER YOU ARE SINGLE OR MARRIED.)"
That's how you get married in God's eyes without some physical ritual or paper. Now of course people will say will without making it 'legal' according to man's law the husband (for example) could just leave the wife and (say they have) kids and is not accountable in the same way as if they had a 'legal marriage' with the papers and all that. And you're right, he could, but even if he got away with it in this life, he can't escape the just judgment of God, right? And besides, that's why this type of thing is not for everybody, that's why you have marriage licences (for the law breakers) and that's why you keep a dog on a leash, because he can't be trusted otherwise.
Now am I saying that I am against physical wedding rituals, and that people shouldn't do that, or that I wouldn't go through with it? No, of course not. My whole argument was that a physical paper, and a physical judge or minister does not make you married. people get legally married all the time then they end up getting divorced soon after. Yet when a couple that truly loves each other and have vowed to, and will spend the rest of their lives togheter are constantly attacked by the church or our society for not
having a piece of paper. I guess I'll end it with this.

Brad,
I forgot to address another issue with my post. And I addressed Sorin rather than you, sorry about that.
If you want the legal benefits of the marriage, such as tax breaks, benefits, and that nature, then yes that paper would be very helpful. Also, I hate to be a bringer of bad news, but should something happen to one of you, you will need to get a will drawn up if you do not have one already drawn up. Please, please make sure that you as a family and if there is a little one involved, make sure you are provided for.
Sincerely,
Anne C. McGuire

I do want to say there is not a single scripture to back up what is continued to be discussed here.
We shoiud be together and standing on what is taught in the scripture.
I would ask that if anyone wants to continue to discuss this please use scripture to back up your stance on this or any subject.
mercy, peace, and love
