The two institutions that the devil fights harder than anything else are the family and the Church. So it is important to understand what the Word of God says concerning the family.  \nGod wants your marriage to be successful and your family to be a place of love. Whether married or single, God wants your life to be peaceful. By coming in line with the Word, you will experience good results. You will see your home become like Heaven on earth!  \nThis book is divided into six chapters. Chapter 1 focuses on some common misunderstandings people have had concerning what the Bible says about marriage, divorce, and remarriage. You see, what Jesus said in Matthew chapter 19 and what Paul said in First Corinthians chapter 7 seem to conflict. And for years, people have struggled to find the answer. I explain in Chapter 2 how to interpret these passages based on commonly accepted rules of Bible interpretation.  \nThen I explain in Chapter 3 the law that is to govern the Body of Christ today—the law of love. Whatever situation you find yourself in—whether married to a Christian, married to an unbeliever, abandoned by a Christian, abandoned by an unsaved spouse, or single—you can pick up where you are and walk on in the love ofGod.  \nChapter 4 goes into detail concerning God’s ideal of marriage. From the time Adam sinned until Jesus Christ came to redeem mankind, man was never able to have the divine type of marriage that God had planned in the Garden of Eden. The life and nature of God was not in mankind at this time. But today as men and women under the New Covenant, we are  \nable to fulfill God’s ideal for marriage. In this Chapter, I discuss the area of submission and authority, specifically in a marriage relationship, because of an error that has been perpetuated in the Body of Christ. I explain what it means to submit one  \nto another in a marriage relationship.  \nFor more than sixty-five years, I have listened to the problems that people face in their marriages and families. I have discovered that all marital problems center around four things. In Chapter 5 , I discuss these four areas at length and offer practical solutions for overcoming any problems in these areas.  \nChapter 6 focuses on the family. By your actions and your words, you create the atmosphere in your home. When you set a good example for your children and surround them with faith and love, you are providing the right resources that will enable them to grow up to be godly men and women.  \nWhether you are single, married, or divorced, this book is intended to help you fulfill God’s ideal foryour home. You can have the marriage you desire. You can have the family you desire. By simply understanding what the Word of God says and then acting on the Word, you can experience the love and peace ofGod in your home.  \nChapter 1  \nMarriage, Divorce, and Remarriage  \nBecause of the need of the hour, the conditions of the day, and the position of the Church, it’s imperative that we address the subject of marriage, divorce, and remarriage. This is the greatest problem of human relationships. Divorce and remarriage has become a national issue.  \nThere are three main perspectives from which I write this book.
