Danger Signs of Marital Erosion, Part 2

July 6, 2016
Our adversary’s favorite strategy is erosion. His goal is to dull our senses, to make us think the gradual drift from moral purity and family priority is no big deal. As we observe the danger signs of domestic erosion in a family that lived centuries ago, perhaps we will be encouraged to respond quickly and decisively to avoid total collapse.

Whether newly married, rearing a houseful of children, or tending an empty nest, a happy marriage—a happy family—needs the same essential disciplines to succeed. Several passages in the latter half of Ephesians provide no less than six habits that, if cultivated, will help reinforce healthy models of relating while keeping poor habits from repeating themselves in our marriages.

While we’re unable to return to the Garden of Eden, we can nevertheless cultivate wholesome habits that contribute to a satisfying family life. In order to enjoy true intimacy despite the effects of the Fall, we must recognize the Lord’s original plan for marriage, take responsibility for how we’ve blown it in the past, and begin taking steps to get back on target.

Some sections of Scripture seem more like a minefield littered with explosives than a treasure chest full of truth. One such section of Scripture deals with the topic of a wife submitting to her husband. We step into it with the full understanding that the topic is known for flaring tempers and causing misunderstandings. Rather than ignoring it, how much more does this passage cry out for a level-headed approach informed by historical, cultural, and biblical contexts? So let’s tackle the question: What does submission really mean?Download Message Mates

The idyllic marital bliss of Adam and Eve was split in two when sin wedged itself between them. Everything changed, between this couple and every other couple in history. Divorces are epidemic, and though the causes are myriad, at their root is sin. One partner's sin may be overt, but the failure that results in a broken marriage is invariably a two-way journey traveled by two guilty sinners. But once the divorce is finalized, the question often arises: “Is remarriage always permissible . . . never permissible . . . sometimes permissible?” What does Scripture say?Download Message Mates
