The institution of marriage was initiated in The Garden and has survived in various forms (at times hideous forms) in all inhabited lands. Yet each marriage is its own-stand-alone entity! YOUR marriage never existed in any civilization or previous century. When you and your wife/husband became one a new unit was formed. Your unique two-into-one mutation survives until death and then, as extreme as it sounds, it vanishes to never ever exist again. God’s creative hand is seen here. Only He could make such a unique invention, allow it to survive for your years only, and then disappear forever. Not only does God love you, He loves your mate, and loves seeing the two of you love each other “as Christ also loved the church.”
