Let them Marry!

When the father of a believing young man of integrity, one who affirms and demonstrates their understanding of and commitment to the actual nature of a Godly marriage, comes to the father of a Godly young virgin for her hand in marriage to his son, that is enough. The placing of further obstacles is an unScriptural testing of the Lord: Scripture neither lists nor implies any other conditions.[1] The young man is a son of your God, a brother of your Lord,[2] he has met the Scriptural guidelines. Adding any other testing to him adds to the Word of the Lord, and contradicts His Word which says, “let every man have his own wife” and “let them marry”[3] and exhorts him to have a wife in his ‘youth’.[4]
