Where Purpose Is Not Known, Abuse Is Highly Probable!
The best way to know the purpose of a product is to consult the manufacturer's manual.
For none can know the purpose of a thing like the maker.
God instituted marriage, it wasn't the idea of any nation, government, people or group.
It was God who said ''it is not good for the man to be alone; I will make him an help meet for him'' (Genesis 2:18).
To understand the purpose of marriage, therefore, God's word must be consulted for direction.
Unfortunately, many look for the purpose of marriage in films, magazines, novels and what have you.
Others import pattern of their parents into their own marriage and then carry the problems of their parents' marriages.
A young man with a very good job was asked by his pastor why he ''badly'' wanted to marry.
''Pastor'', he replied, '' I work so hard and always return home tired and worn out, can't go to the kitchen, can't cook as a matter of fact have not tasted any real home meal for weeks.
At least if I am married, there will be someone to cook for me''.
''You don't need a wife'', answered the pastor, ''all you need is a good cook and your need will be satisfied''.
Many see women as chattels and so their wives are nothing more than a possession, a property.
For that reason they can acquire and fire them at will.
The only time some men have any intimacy with their wives is when they their sexual desires gratified.
The woman is good for nothing else but their unquenchable erotic pleasures and the bed.
A woman is fearfully, wonderfully and delicately created in God's image to compliment a man and help to fulfill his God-given destiny.
If you understand this as a man, you will never raise your hands to beat your wife.
Charles Darwin was wrong when he said man evolved from apes, but many who lift their hands against their wives are proving him right.
Such animals should be confined to the jungle; jumping from tree to tree with their long tailed brethren enjoying the liberty of lawlessness.
Marriage is for companionship.
It offers you someone to lean on and to fellowship with.
It is an avenue for the expression of man's natural sexual instinct (I Corinthians 7:1).
Marriage is also God's design for man's multiplication.
Understanding the purpose of marriage and you won't abuse the beautiful institution.
